Comparisons

You know what annoys me? Malaysians who come to the United States of America and make sweeping (often negative) comments about Malaysia that don't make much sense.

After coming to the states, suddenly Malaysians are uncivilized fucktards who spits out of their car windows, pee on the street, rob you when you go out at night, steal your stuff whenever they get the chance, laugh at you when you fall down, don't follow the rules and road rage every time there is a minor traffic misunderstanding.

Fuck you for your arrogance, fuck you for being a hypocrite, and fuck you for being a disloyal jerk.


Now, am I some crazy patriotic dude? Not that much. The thing is, the comments these people make does not only pertain to the government as well, but very often to Malaysians themselves. Not only that, they somehow got into the belief that everything in the developed world is vastly superior compared to everything back home.

There is no denying that stuff like facilities, laws, corruption, etc etc that are far superior to anything back home. I don't deny that. I know very well the problems of a developing country, I know how inefficient some things can be, how sometimes attitudes can be very negative.

What annoys me is that these people don't make fair comparisons at all, and very often mock/berate the culture/people/environment back home, when what is in front of them is no better. Examples? I was in a car with a bunch of people and there were signs saying construction is going on. There was a slight jam soon after in the otherwise smooth traffic, so obviously there was a temporary block, when someone said :" If we were back in Malaysia, some people would be out there looking for a fight/swearing." That is a fucking retarded statement to make. If anything Malaysians are more passive then these ang mohs over here, and road rage is pretty common in a lot of places.

Another one I frequently hear is how safe it is here compared to back home. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight, you think walking at night in Subang Jaya is bad? Try taking a midnight walk around downtown LA. Or Boston, or the hundred other places with high crime rate around here.

Another similar and really really annoying thing is making statements like:
*right after i jaywalk*
"This is not Malaysia, you can't do that, you gotta follow the rules here."
Then you see an ang moh jaywalk right after you do.

Just for the record, I've also seen ang mohs (or to be fair, people from here):
i) dump whipped cream from a starbucks frapuccino on the road from the window of a car
ii) spit on the side walk

Not to mention anyone in the states has probably encountered one of more homeless guys then might or might not be smelly/eccentric/stands too close to you.

The worst thing is, the mentioned people above, most of them KNOW all this crap I just said about the states, yet for some reason, they refuse to acknowledge it and continue to make retarded comments about the people at home. They can effective say how bad crime is nowadays when watching the news about a robbery here, and conveniently ignore this fact and say how "dangerous" it is back in Malaysia in another conversation 10 minutes later.

God, people are fucking annoying.
