On Hating People

Riding on a bumpy state of mind, I stopped to congratulate you on where you are, what you've become, and all the potential of what you can be.
On a bumpy state of mind, I smiled anyway.
To You.
On a bumpy state of mind, you smirked anyway.
At me.




I hate when people don't pick up the phone when I call.
I hate when people ignore me on purpose.
I hate when people drive on the road's shoulder when they're jammed.
I hate when people put too much honey mustard in my subway.
I hate when people cheat off me.
I hate when people keep going on about themselves like noone else matters.
I hate when people talk dirty behind my back.
I hate when people say they don't know when they do.
I hate when people are late.
I hate when people take my books and give them back ripped.
I hate when people take my CDs but never return them.
I hate when people tell they will do something while they have absolute no intention of keeping their promise.
I hate when people say they miss me while they really don't.
I hate when people pretend they're mildly interested in my life while they really cudnt give 2 shits.
I hate when people start talking to me again only because they need something.
I hate when people blame me for not keeping in touch while they never tried to keep in touch either.
I hate when people tell me lies.
I hate when people expect so much of me, it drains my energy.
I hate when people know how to get the best out of me.
I hate when people take but never give.
I hate when people say hurtful things but never recognize the damage they just caused.
I hate when people constrain me, my actions and my words.
I hate when people think they have the right to tell me what to do.
I hate when people decide for me who the hell I am.
I hate when people take my turn in the queue.
I hate when people stare at me.
I hate when people keep their mess behind them.
I hate when people walk slowly in front of me, but don't leave me space to pass.
I hate when people smirk at me.
I hate when people treat me like shit.
I hate when people take me for granted.
I hate when people don't remember.
I hate when people do remember.
I hate when people do all of that and more.
I hate when people do all that and more but I still smile at them because that's what I do.
I hate when people do all that and more but I still smile at them because they're humans. and we're allowed to screw up.
I hate when people do all that and more but I still smile at them because I want to be smiled at in spite of my doing crap.
I hate when people do all that and more but I still smile at them because without them I'm nothing.

So Excuse me if once in a while, I blow up, I say "eff you world!" or "Go hug a freakin tree!" or "Questu veux you freakin asshole" or call Anonymous "effen Shithead" or describe the entity of stupid as "stinking shit."
So Excuse me if once in a while, I act "aggressive", "inappropriate" or "out of line".
I do that once in a while so that I can smile at you despite of your shit.
Excuse me.

So No - my friend- I don't hate people. I hate what they sometimes do. and that's how I chose to move on beyond all the crap I encounter every minute.
So No - my friend- I don't hate people. I Know they label me.

And You damn well haven't proven me wrong.
