mmmm...the older i get, the less of a tolerance i seem to have for stupid people..

really
i do not suffer fools glady...
they shit me like nothing else..

the other night i went to visit linnie..and she told me that a friend of ours (well..she used to be a friend..and is now just 'someone i know') was on a rant because of stuff that we *supposedly* said the last time we were all out together...it turns out, that we *supposedly* told people that we did not like this friend's girlfriend, as well as a whole heap of other negative comments. this friend of ours took these comments to heart, and as a result, wouldn't talk to linnie...which is extremely fucked..
not because this friend didn't bother to clear the air and have the balls to ask us if it was true..but rather because she chose to believe the drunken words of an almost-stranger, over what she should know better about her friends..
this friend.. (and i do use this term loosely) has done this on several other occasions...so really, it's no surprise that she'd do it again...but to believe that linnie would say anything malicious about anyone's girlfriend is just fucked..and this friend should know better...

i just dont get what it is about people that makes them believe such shit...
i know when i hear something that i think isn't 99.99999% accurate, i investigate until i find out whether it is indeed fact or fiction..and then i form an opinion...then i do what i have to do..speak to the parties involved...or just move on...i wouldn't ever listen to what someone else has said and take those works for gospel - especially not if it meant doubting my friends...but i know not all people are like that...which is a pity.

let's take my recent falling out with the spunky chick, for example..
that grrl and i have been quite good mates for quite a while now...we've been through some good times and bad times...we've fought over and defended each other enough to know (or at least think) that our friendship was important to the other...but not too long ago, she accused me of sleeping with her girlfriend (or her girlfriend of sleeping with me)...and i was so fucking offended that i couldn't see straight. after everything her and i went through during sam-gate...you think she'd know that i truely adore her as a person and would never do anything to upset her...ever...so knowing that she'd let the thought of me fucking her girl cross her mind for even a second, really upset me..
it upset me enough for me to send her a nasty little email pointing out exactly what i thought of her and her fucked-up thoughts..because, i am many things...but i'm totally honest and loyal when it comes to my mates..totally..

but anyway..

i'm so over this topic (even though i started it)..

i guess my point at this late hour is that we never really know people..we may think we do...but we don't. it's disheartening to know that at any given moment in time, someone we hold near and dear can disappoint us in ways we will never get over..never get past...
i know that thesedays, i have no desire whatsoever to patch things up with the spunky chick...none at all...sure, i'd be civil to her if she spoke to me, but i really wouldn't go out of my way for anything other than that.

anyway...i think i've kinda gotten off track...

i'm sure i'll get back on after i sleep.
