I call everyone’s attention to a prevailing issue. It is such a horrid pathological sickness and the fact that it has been ignored till date is alarming. Let me illustrate this using an incident I encountered.
My professors were on strike. Classes had been cancelled. I was happy and hungry. I stepped up to a food cart, ordered a sandwich and after waiting for what seemed like a millennia, I was handed that delectable plate with a gorgeous sandwich staring into my soul, making me realise how deprived I’d been, how ravished, how starved. Turning around with these delicious thoughts, a man, a predator, the devil himself, pushed me sending my sandwich flying off to the ground in the slowest of motion I have ever experienced. Following which he tweaked an eyebrow and scurried of to his hell-hole. Is this what I get? Not an offer to buy me a new one? ( I would have said yes, if you’re wondering) not even an apology? Dude, you just wasted a perfectly good sandwich and my mood for that matter, and you can’t even blurt out a sorry? Who raised you? How did you turn into this fiend? Even the eye contact did not make you realise your fault. Man, you need to know that a tweaked eyebrow did nothing to the sandwich, that was now lying there in despair, looking outright sad and pitiable. Dude, you were even oblivious to the how-disappointed-I-am-in-the-entire-male-race expression I had on my face.
Through this I would like to appeal to everyone who reads this, it’s okay to mess up sometimes, but make sure to buy the other person a new sandwich before strutting out of there.
Also you might be wondering why I haven’t described the man in detail, cough cough, but if I did he would be easily recognisable, and that might end up in him being boycott. I don’t want to do that to him (and also the fact that I have no recollection of how he looked. I just went up and bought myself a wrap).
