Selfish Smartass

"Real geniuses are not afraid of sharing information because they know that individual glory doesn't measure up against team win."

A fairly good advice from Kay Chai currently being Americanized in Seattle.

Here's a situation, what happens when you faced a mind blockage and you desperate seek for help from a friend and instantaneously being rejected mercilessly?

"Hey, can help me up with this? I don't understand.."

"Huh! Lazy to bother awh..." *Ignores or maybe just act plain dumb as if he/she doesn't get the message*

I swear, that is T-H-E most loathsome & abhorrent thing a person can react. As if proving to me that I know and I'm taking the initiative or free time just to B-O-T-H-E-R to ask for fun.

Wtf right?

Another example:

“Hey what’s the definition for this-this-this?”

“Just find it… *blabbers some shit on some particular page*”

It’s so obvious that I have no idea where the hell is the definition and you’re still insisting on repeatedly telling me which page and which paragraph? Thanks for the help, VERY SINCERE indeed.

My point is, not everyone is able to catch up and absorb things fast enough. Unfortunately I am not being able to do so in certain subjects. But that doesn’t mean that I’m a total idiot who doesn’t deserve much help from someone who know, right?

I’m asking for help because I have trust that this particular person is willing to help, somehow… it proved me wrong. Certain group of smart people just want to bury their knowledge with them in their grave and not even bother to share an inch or even nanometers to others.

Just a release of tension on what happened yesterday, lesson learned. Redundant to beg or even waste an once on people who doesn’t want to help.
