Any of you remember the geek from school days? The one you can count on every time you were absent or late for assignments, the straight A student who is a proud winner of some chess championship that nobody ever took notice of. Don't forget he is also a prefect, holds ranks in clubs and always working on some important project.
Oh the geek…
Remember how you never want to be around them, yet somehow you secretly need them. Mostly because they willingly took care of the stuff you didn't wanna care about. They tie your loose ends, they enslave themselves for your demands and the best part is, you can always rely on them.
Now do you remember the bullies?
These guys get super-excited usually by breaking someone or something. They would gang up, always plotting and plotting. It is strange though, they like to make fun of your geek mostly for personal satisfaction. And you, depending on the situation, either pretend not to hear it happen or you'd secretly get pissed. Nobody stands up for the geek, so you don't fight back.
Unless if it gets too much.
Every time bullies take too much control, the geeks can't focus to do their stuff right. Then things become a mess. We need the geeks, we need to have things in order. We need to be comfortable and safe so that we can go about doing our nonsense. We need the geeks, they are always there for us neverfailingly.
Years have pass, today I turned on the tv. The 8 o'clock news is on. I see a bunch of geeks at a rather big meeting. I turned the volume up and picks up 'perhimpunan agong UMNO hari ini bla bla.' Then one geek says something about helping members help members, another calls everyone to be a member. They all share a familiar look, a facial expression that says they really like you and desperately want to be near you.
Ah…geeks. Just like the old days.
Point is: At this moment of adulthood, UMNO is my geek. I suppose yours too whether you like it or not. About the bullies, oh they never stop do they?
So go ahead geeks, do what you do best; taking care of us. All trust to you UMNO, and thank you for being our geek...muah!
P/s: Its not like we dont like UMNO or anything, we just like our nonsense better.
