Speechless

Went out to do some shoppings today.
Along the way back home, came across two things.
...1...
There was one couple pushing a baby pram.
The male is about 1.55m, might be seriously underweight
and dressed too much to be causal.
The female, on the other hand was quite plump and wore heavy make ups.
But both are undoubtedly quite young.
I thought they were quite an "unmatched" couple.
However, after some thoughts, i told myself...
Perhaps they love each other for who they are.
Hmm...i was quite happy with my guessing.
When i walked past them, the plump lady told the skiny guy...
"No money, no talk! Wait till you get a job!".
A simple yet normal speech which left me totally speechless.
Well, is the world too realistic?
(I know it have being realistic, but never did i know its to such an extent!!!)
Is the economic crisis really affecting so many people?
(Cause it didnt affect my family and friends, so i thought the news were reporting it too big.)
Do they really love each other for whom they are?
(After their speech i thought maybe its for money, but after marriage, the lady regretted.)
Well, maybe you could think more about this issue.
...2...
Actually this thing happened long ago, and is still happening now.
Along the journey to CWP or back home,
there is always this long path that i have to stroll.
I called it the Long March.
And, everytime when i walk along this path,
l'll smile to myself.
Not that i'm crazy,
but i felt funny by the foolishiness of peoples' act.
Along the path,
there are lots of pillars.
On these pillars stick many small white papers...
Landlords renting out their houses,
renter wanting to share their rooms.
Once, i saw this lady trying to tear away the papers.
At first i thought she loved the environment,
so i continued looking at her.
To my dismay, she was actually removing the papers so that she could paste hers on the wall,
and at the same time,
remove her "compeititors".
Till that day onwards, i start to pay attention to this "intense competition" that was ongoing everyday.
I realise that some have actually make an attempt to use scotch tape to wrap their papers.
To prevent them from being tear away.
But, the funniest part came in...
I realise that some of the torn marks were straight!!!
That means...people bring SCISSORS to cut the scotch tapes!
OMG!
How clever...
So humans were born to come up with such ideas just to remove their opponents?
But have they thought, in the end, they are just wasting the papers,
destroying the environment.
I wonder how many will call them in favour of renting their house when the papers get torn away in just a day?
