It has been a good week. I need to make better use of my time now.

Idiot Part II

The idiot is now history, thankfully.

A friend had remarked that I had been extremely patient with him. Yes. Fifteen years. It was a long time in coming. It wasn't a capricious act. As observed by a friend, I have been patient, it was fifteen years before I decided that he isn't a friend, whereas two of my friends blocked him within seconds of reading the idiot's comments. I had warned that idiot earlier this year. And years before, I had told him off for his boorish behaviour.

I am fine with differences in opinion but I am not fine with idiocy. It takes me time because I am sentimental, I don't like cutting off friendships. I take friendships seriously, even virtual ones. As I grow older, I rather cut off friendships with toxic people. Life is really too short for that, I rather spend time with good friends.

The ironic thing is that it is over the anti-China narrative. And I don't even like or care for China. However, I simply hate nonsense. The anti-China hysteria is Trump nonsense. The anti-China hysteria bothers me. And for those who know me, I am hardly attached to Chinese culture or Chineseness in any way.

Idiot I

I have decided not to have anything to do with an idiot that I know online. I have known him for years, he was never the brightest of individuals but he had a huge ego. I have wasted enough time conversing with him.

I was looking at a photo of Mimi from last year, one of the last taken when he was well. I am sad.
