Tololy’s Box » Blog Archive » This morning’s meditation

I ordered a sandwich and a Pepsi this morning from a food car, for breakfast. There weren’t many buyers around but the cash register was down so Mr.Food selling man was writing down the orders on small cards instead and doing the calculations using his brain power.

This morning was hot and I had been running around for two hours or so, therefore I was somewhat tired. I stood in line waiting for my turn to place my order to come but there he was: the bulky guy in the second-skin top.

This is some aspect of the human nature that I do not understand; why do some people feel an undeniable urge to cut lines? I sincerely cannot fathom this.

So Mr. bulky guy in the second-skin top (a most disturbing sight, to tell you the truth) clearly saw me waiting for my turn, which was at this point only one guy away, but nevertheless stood on his tiptoes, stretched his arm up with one JD, arched it in such a fashion that it flew over my head, and displayed an anxious/starving look on his face.

I was disgusted and consequently gave him a “You’re rubbish” look and then ignored him. My order was placed before his, obviously.

It’s these little things in people that pertain to significant mentality backwardness symptoms that disturb me most of all, but until mentalities are fixed, there will always be a bulky guy in some second-skin top that will want to cut the line and will get the “You’re rubbish” look, or a fist in the cheek.

I share the sentiment of disgust of the act and appearance, though the act also infuriates me.
Check my blog for "who’s to blame" article and tell me if you can relate to any part of it.

Sari Al-Hiari, I will check it out and leave a comment inshallah. Thank you for dropping by, I am glad someone out there shares my sentiment. Welcome back.

Abu Shreek, I got a “sarookh” sandwich. It\’s really good.

Dar, I promise the next time I am faced with such a situation that I will talk more about it. I don\’t know how people would want to skip lines, I don\’t understand that.

Bakkouz, I apologize. I did listen to the music, was the Qafa recorded in Kfar Kama since the track info beams "Israel"? Interesting music that I always enjoy. I have a question, on my cell phone my favorite ringtone for over five years now is called Gwashaghaza (This is the spelling I received), do you happen to have the track or know someone who does? I’d really appreciate it if I can get the original track, not only the ringtone. Thank you very much for taking the time to tell me about the link, I also visited  Alaa Dadan’s page a couple of days ago. He had left a link on a previous post about Adiga music, beautiful stuff.
