THE HATER : I hate people who…

…do not move with the times. It is already a new year and some of you shouted on top of your voices just to welcome 2010. Unfortunately some part time thinkers have not really moved with us. I met one such joker in a taxi to Kimironko. When his phone rang, I was disappointed to hear a Christmas themed ring tone. Who told him that Christmas extends to the second week of January? When I stood up to get out, I tapped him and said, “Merry Christmas.” However in my head I was just wondering which schools the fellow went to. The truth is that he didn’t seem to have attended any.

…do not move with the times.

It is already a new year and some of you shouted on top of your voices just to welcome 2010. Unfortunately some part time thinkers have not really moved with us. I met one such joker in a taxi to Kimironko. When his phone rang, I was disappointed to hear a Christmas themed ring tone.

Who told him that Christmas extends to the second week of January? When I stood up to get out, I tapped him and said, "Merry Christmas.” However in my head I was just wondering which schools the fellow went to. The truth is that he didn’t seem to have attended any.

…have a habit of tagging me in crazy photographs.

It is quite hard these days to give a good reason for not being on the social networking site, Facebook. For this reason I reluctantly decided to join the band wagon and sign up for Facebook.

However, I have developed a strong hatred for those guys who claim to be my friends but only indulge in tagging me to not-so-funny photos. I know you do this to try and make me laugh.

But you stupidly forget that I am an adult and so I have better things to do than laughing at fake photos showing Pres. Obama and Osama shaking hands.

The good thing is that these days when you tag me, I respond by kicking you off my friends’ list.  

…think it is cool to act lazy.

Sometimes I see things that fail to amuse me. Have you noticed that some people pretend to be so lazy especially in the presence of technological innovations?

Is it not annoying to see someone who grew up grazing cattle for miles pretending that he cannot stand up to change the TV channel one meter away? Meanwhile he will be more willing to spend hours moving around looking for the remote control instead of simply using the buttons on the TV to change the channel.

Is this not a pure case of bringing someone from the village but failing to get the village out of them?

…despise hardworking people.

I don’t know how best to say this but I really hate (so much) those people who instead of minding their business, waste time despising other hardworking people.

You find a brainless fellow saying stuff like, "Dr. Claude cannot sing at all.” I think these annoying creatures need to shut up and mind their business. If he really can’t sing, can you?

Please, if you do not like him then keep it to yourself. For example I know I am good at hating and if I came across such lousy people, I would happily show them that I can also administer a good beating to reluctant thinkers.  

…don’t prepare for their jobs.

I am really getting mad with these motorcyclists who always don’t have the change to give back to their customers. You meet the guy and agree on a fee.

Then when you give him a Rwf2000 note he quickly folds his face and tells you how he does not have the change to give you back.

They even sometimes make you wait as they try to look for the changed cash. I just detest these people for not being able to see that keeping changed money is to their advantage.

The foolishness of these fellows can only be equated to a hotel or restaurant that has food but no plates or cutlery.
