Some people SERIOUSLY need a huge dose of creativity.
One good example is
this blogger.
She is the most disgusting online netizen I have ever met.
When you open the page, what greets you is an outstanding picture with a very FAMILIAR background (as all xiaxue readers would know). The picture was BADLY photoshopped to include her face. Instead of "xiaxue", the words read,
http://www.siyansblog.blogspot.com/ , followed by "Shopgirl" being spaced out evenly.
I say it was badly photoshopped because the body was unproportional. The neck looked too long. Not to mention the specific lack of collar bones. Upon closer inspection, you realise that even the skin tone is different.
Nice try. If you really want to copy someone, at least get the photo proportional and the skin tone right. Did I mention that your head looked like it has been executed and planted on top of xiaxue's face, siyan?
Furthermore, I've noticed something. Siyan always, ALWAYS takes her photos with her head tilted to the left, keeping the right face in view. True, it is a wonderful trick for people with broad faces to look more chio, but unfortunately for Miss Siyan, all it did for her was to give her the simpering-and-permanently-surprised-look, as one of your eyebrows look thicker and higher than the other.
In a post on October 8, she says that she would stop blogging because of us 'pig' readers. Ohhh, I'm sooo scared. You write like a second grader. I do not see any signs of good English in your posts (no outstanding vocabulary, though I did spot some embarrassing grammar mistakes). Darling, if you write well, people would come and read it. You do NOT need to attract attention by describing your readers as pigs.
And you claim to be an outstanding blogger. So what? I have readers from Canada and other countries...
and I'm only thirteen.Readers from all over the world? Big deal. I think that the readers must've been blind, or go there just to make fun of her.
Ma cherie, fame comes with a price. Sometimes, you just have to take criticism. Not everyone will like your work. There is a term for it us writers like to use--it's called
constructive criticism. You can't expect everyone to slide to your views and agree on everything you say. xiaxue has many of these before, and did she stop blogging?
No. She didn't, and that resilience is what made her Singapore's no.1 blogger.
She says that xiaxue copied her smile. Consider this, you mental dequilent: Xiaxue created her blog in 2002 (or earlier). You? 2007, approximately 5 years later. 5 years ago, no one knows how the hell you look(and thank god, because the very image of your simpering face would burn their eyes out), so don't you think it should be the other way round?
P.S. About your post on Burma. We are talking about politics here, a very sensitive topic. Much remains to be seen from both sides. Aren't you being a little too critical in your judgement that people march in streets in their red shirts just to show off their knowledge? Idiot. How would you feel is you were working in U.S., then some unknown country bombs you and many were killed? Will you be leaping for joy? Chances are, you'll feel so constricted by emotion for your country, you'd want to protest. That is how people do it. It's got patriotism--unless you are trying to say you aren't patriotic...
