toilet paper for sale. (a cock and bull story)

The title of this post actually does not have anything to do with what I have to say. But I thought it sounded rather interesting. About as interesting as a "TOILET PAPER 99cents" sign you see in NTUC Fairprice. Which it technically can be. What I wanted to discuss, as I said, has nothing to do with toilet paper. It might have something to do with cup noodles though. Cup noodles can be linked to toilet paper in the sense that if you accidentally spill some cup noodles, toilet paper comes into play. Cup noodles in this sense however, actually refers to a person. Therefore, toilet paper does not come into play at all and I struggle to make sense of why I'm still using the word sense in what is essentially nonsense(that's better).

Back to my point(which I actually haven't started on). I was thinking of doing peer appraisals for my platoon, which of course being a genius, I haven't started on. Like the point I was going to make(which I have just started on). So anyway, while doing peer appraisals, I realised how much easier it was to criticise someone and only look at their faults, while being totally oblivious to their merits. That being said, I believe the people I am going to list as the bottom 3 cadets have no merits at all. Which is living proof of my point.

People, myself included, don't look at something from all perspectives before laying down a judgment. I try my best to give someone I don't know the benefit of the doubt before judging him/her. However, I think the case for everyone is that the first impression counts a lot. Which is partly the reason why people are so judgmental. And even though one might try not to judge someone else, the first impression is subconsciously having an effect on the conscious mind.


Therefore, it would be a good move for one not to have this smug look on his face when his status is the same as everyone. And shout like the organisation belongs to his grandfather. It would degrade him to the bottom of the name list. In my books. Secondly, when one already looks like shit, at least try to counter it with air-freshener like behaviour. Because shit looks with shit behaviour stinks(pun intended). It would make the person/people reach the second from bottom of my list. Thirdly, try not to make a big deal out of everything, from slipping in toilets to your weight, to how good looking you think you actually are. Please note that people do have orb-like structures within their head sockets with visual sensory nerves. These are otherwise known as eyes.

There you go. All I have spurted out in the past paragraph was criticism. No good points. Maybe I could say that the shouting guy has a good pair of lungs. And the smug look could be a sign of confidence. And that shit is actually good because it is a form of fertiliser rich in nitrates. So shit looks plus shit behaviour = double action fertiliser. And making a big deal out of everything is good. I don't know why but it is. So is having the confidence to tell yourself you look good when other people wonder if you've ever seen a mirror.

Besides that, I believe I am very tired. I am tired a lot nowadays. But tiredness is in the mind. If I believe I am not tired, I won't be. But why would I do that? Sleep is good.
