a guy was grinning at me. i grinned back.
"Hi." he said.
i kept grinning.
he told me his name.
i kept on grinning stupidly. at the back of my mind i felt a thought forming. something along the lines of "so?"
i grinned at them all even as a whole line of people started shaking my hand and telling me their names. names that i forgot as soon as they were uttered.
i kept grinning as they waved at me and walked away to find other people to victimize. i half expected a gag show host to pop up somewhere and yell "YARI KA!" at me. when i finally realized that that wasn't going to happen, i let my grin drop.
why can't i bear to be rude? i hated what just happened. and i found it awfully stupid that those people didn't even bother to tell me what party they were and what position they were running for and why, why, WHY in the world would i want to vote for them.
i've never even met them.
unless of course you count that 30 second moment of absurdity.
but i kept grinning at them as if i agreed. as if i even cared.
the elections are coming, and i'm now officially convinced. I'M NOT VOTING THEM. I'M NOT VOTING ANYBODY.
I HATE POLITICS.
