So much anger...

Lately I just see so much anger between the people of Qatar, and that includes Qatar Living also!!! It seems that QLers just want to offend one another, they want to make fun of others with any chance they get. Really, it's getting stressful and boring to read the topics on QL. There are like these small groups of friends that don't give a chance to outsiders; if a new commer asks a silly and naive question they will tell him "hey, this has been posted before" or "hey, don't ask this in the main forum" and so on...
Apart from angry QLers a looooooot of angry drivers nowadays...is it maybe that a lot of them wish to kill themselves and want to involve others also??? Is it maybe because holidays are comming? Both eid and Christmas? Is it the economical crisis??? What could it be? And what can be done to prevent morons from driving? Should there be police patrols and not just radars and cameras?

Ok i have a joke for all of you, just keep smiling and try to be happy, sure you will have les stress:-

Husband and wife are waiting at the bus stop with their nine children. A blind man joins them after a few minutes. When the bus arrives, they find it overloaded and only the wife and the nine kids are able to fit onto the bus.

So the husband and the blind man decide to walk. After a while, the husband gets irritated by the ticking of the stick of the blind man as he taps it on the sidewalk, and says to him, 'Why don't you put a piece of rubber at the end of your stick? That ticking sound is driving me crazy.'

The blind man replies, 'If you had put a rubber at the end of YOUR stick, we'd be riding the bus, so shut the hell up.'

*I have been polite in words dont comment on me*......

UK, I'm sure that most QLers are great people, I never imagined any different, in fact I have a very dear friend that I met through QL, but sometimes they get nasty when talking from behind the scrren of the pc. Face to face, they would never have that attitude, it's human nature. Ah,and I don't like when I see a lot of them trying to show superiority.

If you could choose one characteristic that would get you through life, choose a sense of humour.

QL are good but some are CRAZY lol...i think when they have their personal issues they bring it to the forum, waiting someone who ask something in forum and they blast their anger.

I dont live with example..Rather I prefer to be an example!

Babel.. We love are Qlers now matter how angry they may seem on line but believe me when you meet them in public you are really taken back..So like they say never judge a book by its cover..Same I would say about a lot of Qlers.

But one thing I will and never have turned a blind eye on is if some one who is pushing division between us, either in the name of race, religion, political view or their culture..

I say let's make a Qatar Living HAPPY DAY at least once a week, let's say Sunday, it's first day of a new week and everybody is cranky. So every Sunday we talk nicely and polite with all the other QLers, we don't try to prove we're smarter or in any other way superior, we post funny stuff and jokes, oh I love it when I find jokes on QL, and we're all just a bunch of friends who love Qatar and Qatar Living!!!!

What u think?

u are very right ...theres no any reason why they do that just stupidity controls them, i notice even if we say i love blue cloth not red they will repply you by calling you racist or whatever...on the road if you are coming from the shop and u r reversing so u can take the main road , someone will come and no patience he will overtake and use the left side just because he cannot wait 2 minutes while you are revarsing. just small brain no other reason. I also wish police would be patroling all around doha.

Yes storm, ur right about personal frustration. And the fact that what they're saying has no implications is also a reason, I think.

Apple, I can't figure out if ur trying to be a sweet or a sour-sweet apple, but...thanks but no thanks...I don't need it, at least not yet. ;-)

I agree with you stress_in_babel QL seems to be dominated by a bunch of Jobless creeps.. who are ready to bash one another on the name of Religion, Culture, Nationality and God knows what.

If there is nothing interesting then they talk about Religion. And some of the users are so absurd, I wonder what goes on in thier mind..

I guess the real reason is personal frustration that could be due to countless factors..

Anyway takecare

Juan, I'm not angry, just sad, I wish for a better world and better people, I know it sounds like kids talk or beauty pageant talk...

Hyperactive, let's hope that it's just a phase...
