Oblivious

Don’t we all have friends who are oblivious? You know what I am talking about, someone who has no idea about what goes around, and always assumes that things are ok, even though they are not, because he or she is unaware that their actions or behaviors should not be normal among friends.

I have such a friend, and I can classify him as a classical case of Oblivious Maximus. He gets in strange mood from time to time with many of us, and acts strangely. He basically shuts down and disconnects the world from himself, but then all of a sudden he is back, and expects things to be the same, while they are naturally not.

Little can be done to this person, many people tried, but he just does not get it, he takes everything lightly and thinks life is a big joke. He lives in his own small coconut.

They teach you not to write things when you are annoyed, but I will disregard that for this post, because I am super-pissed and I am considering not being around him and stick only with friends who answer their phones, reply to their messages, check on their friends when there is no contact.

So oblivious friend, or ex-friend, go play with toys, you are not worth the attention.

What about those who have a different version of “Oblivious Maximus”? People who have lived here for a while and yet still don’t grasp the way things work or happen here! Know what I mean?

Stallion, Yah that is a classification on its own, not only would they not grasp the ways, they complain about things not working the way it is supposed to. I think I will call that Catagory, Oblivious Moronus.

I do ignore my phone calls most of time and disconnect the world from myself !

But since you said I’m not, then I’m not :) you can’t take it back; 9a7?

Don’t even get me started on this topic. I work with an oblivious Maximus…

But she might just be plain dumb…

Sometimes the wisest thing to do is to cut ties with a friend who cause you to have negativity in your life.
Good luck!

Purg, what you are talking about is classic introvert behavior, and they/we can’t help it. It is perceived as anti-social, when in reality, it is just being over stimulated, and NEEDING to shut down for a while. Didn’t you post a while ago about NOT feeling obligated to answer your phone? That’s similar. . .

Maybe your friend is going through something. Maybe you could cut him some slack?

You mentioned not writing posts while you are annoyed. You can always go back and delete those.

I think I am Oblivious Moronus. Is there any hope?

Comment by Intlxpatr — 18, June, 2007 @ 7:09 pm


Q8sultana, I thought you quit.

Carly, maybe that would work.

Dodo, yeah you like that don’t you?

Intlxpatr, you are not Moronous, you are CIA :p As for first comment, it is different when you do that for a short period, but not on a constant basis. I will not delete this post, I am keeping it, it is a classic.

3rd report.

target has been irritated by an entity that don’t replay to his phone calls, or msgs, as if…….!!!
level of annoyance = 7.

recomended actions:

find that entity.
study it.
try to recrute it.
if refused, hire it’s service to annoy the target even more.
terminate if no means are succeeded.

I didn’t quit. my life is just too boring to blog about it. Im also not very motivated or inspired. all I do is work and sleep.
there will be a temporary come back in August while I’ll be on holiday in Kuwait, and then I’ll quit :)
