Beautiful People Website Was Invaded


Now this is some interesting info...high-tech, virtual and weirdness on social media.

There is a social networking site for "beautiful people", which has some 700,000 members worldwide. Recently, it was hit by what is known as the "Shrek" virus that allowed some tens of thousands of "ugly" applicants to sign up. (My apologies for using the word "ugly" but sadly this is how the owners of the site refer to the unwanted applicants.)

BeautifulPeople.com has always had a very strict rating stage where existing users vote on whether someone is attractive enough to be accepted into the online community...wow isn't that quite racist?

Last month, this screening process lost its strict set of rules and allowed anyone to join in, regardless of their looks.

Today, the owners of the site have apologized to more than 30,000 unfortunate people who were wrongly admitted to the site. They are now banished from there.

Check this out how the Managing Director of this racist site, Greg Hodge handled the media today...I am amazed to see his choice of words.

"We got suspicious when tens of thousands of new members were accepted over a six-week period, many of whom were no oil painting."

"We responded immediately, repairing the damage from the Shrek virus and putting every new member back into the rating module for a legitimate and democratic vote. The result is that we have lost over 30,000 recent members."

"We have sincere regret for the unfortunate people who were wrongly admitted to the site and who believed, albeit for a short while, that they were beautiful."

"It must be a bitter pill to swallow, but better to have had a slice of heaven then never to have tasted it at all."

Wow how insane was that? People actually prove they are beautiful by being on a site and if a site rejects them they feel sad that they are ugly.

Anyway, it is believed this virus was caused by a former employee or by one of the 5.5. million people who were rejected by the site. Just for our info UK, Russia and Poland are a few countries with the highest rejection rate on this site, while most successful new members are from USA, Denmark and France.

I am finding this whole website to be so vain...the whole idea is so discriminating and biased. Anyway, if it is doing well it is because there is demand for such discrimination where people love to be called beautiful while millions are rejected because people find them ugly. The world is going down the drains.

Discrimination runs in the blood


That teacher’s story reminded me of another unfair tale. I was in 10th grade when I heard about it & I was quite pissed off. They say teaching is a very noble profession but I do have my doubts about it. Over the years, I’ve seen strange educationists - those who believe in discrimination & have no shame whatsoever about their fucking beliefs.

This story is about 2 little boys of a sweeper. I don’t know the names of the boys but I knew his parents. They were really very cute & adorable kids & it’s not an exaggeration, cause I have never been a fan of kids. I can only notice a kid, if he/she happens to be genuinely cute.

These boys were admitted in a good school, thanks to some Government servant. Anyhow, the staff did not know they were the kids of sweepers. When the principal inquired from the boy about the 2 people who accompanied them to the school every morning, she was enraged. She had a meeting with that civil servant & she very plainly said that they cannot allow the kids of a sweeper to study with the kids of other people.

The question that has always bothered me is that: what do you expect of such educationists & do they have any moral? Are they even answerable to their own conscience? (But I guess it must be dead.)The thing is…education doesn’t open minds. I’ve been aware of it for too long, cause I know too many educated people who are nothing but illiterates with degrees. They have one rule for themselves & another for others.

Whatever it is…I believe education is the right of every child. It doesn’t matter where he is born. But I don’t think we have come far ahead. We are still standing there. These very educated people breed discrimination. Such closed minds are running schools. What do they teach students? That you must discriminate as we discriminate & please continue this barbaric business till the end of time!

Discrimination is an abuse & when people who are supposed to make this world better indulge in this kind of discrimination, we are left with no hope. They say that the younger lot is worse. I don’t agree with them. They are rotten themselves. Those 2 boys could have had better lives. But some people very strongly believe in the concepts of inferiors & superiors. How can any fucking educationist believe in class difference? This idea itself is repugnant, but it’s being followed quite religiously everywhere.

PS Some people have issues with me, cause I use the (unethical) word fuck in my write-ups. See I’m a blogger/writer…when I see a genuine harami, I won’t go in search of another word to make him/her look less harami.
