Two Things Today
Friday, September 4, 2009
There are two things today that I discovered, that can be rated as “beyond dickery” in Indonesia:
First, motorists that refuse to follow the grand rule of traffic regulations and yet get upset when we told them that they are wrong. Most of them are, unfortunately, motorcycles. We can forget about public transportations since they probably did not line up when God was giving away brains for free. But some automobile drivers also don’t seem to be free of this disease.
Second, people who don’t queue in a line, cuts other people that were actually in queue and yet get upset when we told them that they are wrong. Most of them are, unfortunately, adults and elderly people. I can conclude that their families probably don’t know what this thing called “manners” is. Perhaps when the rest of humanity evolved from cave-dwellers, they are still stuck in that age.
