why you so like that ?

As we are all aware, we’re now in the holy month of Ramadhan - where our Muslim friends will fast from dawn till dusk. During the day time, none of them are suppose to eat, drink, or ingest anything at all - which to me, is akin to getting myself in real torment situation. (I can get pretty lethargic when I’m exposed to long hours of hunger and thirst).

I have yet to ask any of my Muslim friends why are they doing that - but then, let’s just say, I’m not very interested to find out. I’m not a religious guy or someone who cares about the welfare of others … so, I’ll just mind my own business.

But on Friday, after I had hauled my ass out from a perilous 40 minutes traffic jam RIGHT OUTSIDE MY QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD, I decided to ask this — Why are there so many Muslim people violating traffic rules during the month of Ramadhan ?

Don’t get why I asked that ?

Look around you. About 5 - 6 pm, there’ll be stalls popping up by the roadside basically at every corner. Our Muslim friends will throng the streets to buy food from these stalls for their daily fast break. Now, what’s my problem about that ? No I don’t. I have problem with something else.

Problems with inconsiderate idiots who park their bicycles, motorcycles and cars.. ALL OVER THE FUCKING PLACE. And these, my friends, causes massive traffic jam almost HALF OF PENANG each time we’re near the hours of breaking their fast.

They would park their vehicles on single line, double lines, emergency lanes, by the fire hydrant, anywhere. And these inconsiderate schmucks, would then march on the road like a bold invincible gangsters, obstructing the flow of traffics and crossing roads without looking.

Hello ??? Is there anything inside your head ? Park your goddamn vehicles at allocated car parks. Or anywhere that doesn’t block the traffic. Be considerate. There are many more other human beings who also want to be with their family for dinner, NOT JUST YOU ALONE.
