Cravings

On nights like this when the streets are wet and the air sultry with moisture, I crave the warmth within the arms of a man. Preferably one I don't love.

That would be the perfect illusion of comfort and safety.

I suddenly feel lonely tonight.

Who's the immigrant c***?

Whilst in the shower half an hour ago at 2.45am on this quiet Saturday morning, I heard loud yelling. Turning off the shower, I heard a male voice with a strong British accent, and this is what I heard, in excerpts:

"You're a fucking, fat, lazy bitch!"

"You are WOMAN. I am MAN. You listen to every fucking thing I say."

"You fucking, fat, lazy, IMMIGRANT cunt!"

And various other limited variations of "fucking bitch". This man has an extremely narrow vocabulary range.

And who do we suppose is the real immigrant cunt here? Mr Sexist-White-Supremist here sure has the right to put a little Asian woman in her place, and to remind her of her inferior foreign status. Whether she is his household maid, girlfriend or wife, it's certainly his duty to tell lazy cunts like her to shut the fuck up. Oh, and to chew her out when she actually has the balls to defend herself (that too was audible, but only very briefly).

Who does this fucker think he is? A foreigner himself in a country populated by generations of immigrants, and he has the cheek to call someone else derogatory names? Having the indecency to use such language when his neighbours clearly have small children? AND him being certainly not the only expatriate in this building, most of whom are Asian expats to boot.

I got angry enough to put on something decent, go to the first floor and walk around the building, trying to see which unit it was. The white immigrant cunt turns out to be on the second storey (to the best of my observation), given that it was the only unit with the kitchen light on, window open and a very loud, British male voice sarcastically raving about how difficult it was to wash dishes, and audibly slamming objects around.

It sucks to be incensed and not be able to do anything, so I stupidly wrote a large note and taped it to the lift lobby of that storey. Then I decided "cunt" isn't something I want the small children living on that level to see, so I changed my mind and took down the note. Instead, I decided to tell the security guard that someone on the second storey was making a cacophony.

How many of these rednecks with an undeserved superiority complex and delusions of colonial glory live among us and treat Asians like crap? Even more fun are the sexist ones who behave like local women are easy little toys. And every one of these fuckers reinforces the ang moh stereotype that many locals have, and sadly pigeonholes the other foreigners who actually are open-hearted, respectful and sincerely are our friends on equal terms.
