He who laughs last...

its a common phrase people use.

He who laughs last... laughs best.

But i prefer

He who laughs last... thinks slowest or
He who laughs last... laughs alone or
He who laughs last... is faking it

the list could go on and on. Laughter, something we all can appreciate. To me, the harder you try to laugh, the harder it is and the more fake it sounds. Have you ever heard 'those' people who would laugh at just about anything another says, when we all know its just absolutely not funny at all? We all know that those ass kissers or "cha hai chai" (literally meaning shoe polishing guy) are all just trying gto suck up to whoever they can get their lips near to. I've stood on the sidelines for a long time and seen many of these 'ass kissers' (if i may so humbly call them) rise to the top of what they get involved it simply by putting on a fake smile and laugh so mechanical you just want to stuff millions of rotten eggs down their troat!..

But alas i also theres really nothing anybody can do about it right? theres no law saying 'ass kissers prohibited' so we'll have to live with them in the mean time.. or do we?...

Often enough, soon after people start noticing a particular ass kisser, the forms a secret pack between a few friends who will often observe Mr Ass Kissers every move and will faithfully condemn every single smile laugh and movement made by Mr Ass Kisser. Soon he is the most hated person around, and made even more so when his/her ass kissing works like a charm and he/she gets lots of praise and credit and the rest of us are questioned about our commitment! Whats worse, now that he's our superior, we all have to resort to kissing Mr Ass kissers ass instead if we are to have any hopes of getting ahead!... .

now, to kiss or not to kiss, that is the question. a double edge sword huh?

Some of these Mr Ass kissers, i know well, many are good friends. their defense is that its just a matter of good PR, some say its part of theJob. Others say its just their nature and some dont see anything wrong with just flattering a little bit. But what do you think? (yes, you) i would be absolutely humbled and honoured if anyone read this let alone replied me. So if you have something to say, just do it. Just dont start kissing my ass! ;>
