Tunataka Serikali Itusaidie
Am I the only kenyan is super-fed up with this phrase?!!! I think its about damn time people realize the government doesn't give a fig about them. Whenever anything happens to the public the phrase comes up! bad roads, hiked fuel prices, APs killing each other, guys dying from famine-the list is endless. My two cents on the issue is that we need to take the initiative to force the govt to serve us, after all what the hell is the purpose of their existence? And to stop whining cause thats really not helping!

WHY HATING IS AN ARTFORM
I find it interesting how people will always look at the positive works of people and not the criticism that comes with it. What I always do is fast forward on the goody two shoes part-which is mostly boring rambling and then get to the good stuff-the hater comments. Why you ask? Have you ever read some of the most interesting blogs or comments on various websites or FB pages- review them are they always the sweetest, most positive of reads? No they are juicy gossip tidbits or someone venting their hateration on some hapless individuals (ok at times some of the people being hated on actually deserve it). Yes this is true and you know it. Just to prove it-would you rather bookmark Frankie Rantz’s webpage for some constant udaku or some do-gooder organization’s webpage hell-bent on saving some endangered animal/rain forest/art form/language…. Yep now that explains it. Back to the story why I check out the hater comments (or constructive negative criticism if you would like to be PC about it) is because some of the guys/chicks posting them are the most creative at aiming their stinging barbs to whoever they hate on. Check out some of the intended puns/comments at some YouTube videos or random FB comments on some pages especially after a scandal. Also some random ‘celebrity/fashion’ bloggers who decimate their intended victims with some very witty remarks. I think these guys should actually write a book/manual on how to hate or have a hater award ceremony of sorts for the most creative of the lot. Why? Because hateration actually sells-that’s what helps some celebrities with ailing sales actually sell-harsh critics slamming their products actually drives people to go buy and see what really sucked in the album/fragrance/movie/clothes line… So my take on it, creative haters need to make it an industry-although with regulations as it is a sensitive one and with so many haters there needs to be regulations to let the do-gooders stay. Have a hate free day
