Voluntary Displays of Vandalism

Entries in My Other Blogs :

The debate about the pros and cons of social networks has been going on for as long as they have existed.  People have found long lost friends through social networks.  Long lost families have been reconnected through it; knowledge and experiences are exchanged in the name of goodwill through its pages.

However one cannot deny the fact that there some desperate people out there (adults no less!) who seem to bask in the display of bad behaviors like vandalising public property.  It is sad and somewhat surprising that these people would show-off behaviors that others would hide.  Take the case of the picture above where a social network user displays in one of his posts his carefree bravado of stepping on a pot of blooming chrysanthemums which were on display to the public.  I mean, what sane reason could there be for doing such a thing.

This grown-up has not really grown-up and needs many more years of growing up before he can be given the responsibility of using any social network.  Even more important, he needs even more years to acquire acceptable social etiquette before he is released into the real world!

After Two Years.....

Can't believe that I have been too busy to write that I have actually left this blog untouched for two long years.  A lot of thing...
