Bad guys win though it won’t seem right

Hello there again. Title’s from Sonata Arctica’s Peacemaker.

Yea, bad guys win… but you sure it won’t seem right?

Okay, now that you’ve read this far, I might as well admit I’m whining again. Can’t help that.

Here comes the story…

We were taking an exam. Wasn’t particularly difficult, but the examiner asked questions which at times had nothing to do with the topic we were supposed to talk about.

Anyway, there’s a girl who’s pretty much the best in this particular subject from the whole class. Yet she didn’t exactly learn it from said teacher. Consequently, the teacher isn’t all that fond of her, even though she’s her best student.

So, she (the girl) is kinda nervous, wanting to show her that she does understand the subject, and also worried that the teacher might try and embarass her. We calm her down – ‘You’re gonna do fine, and don’t give a shit about her opinion!’

Off she goes, into the exam room.

After a – rather short – while she comes out, obviously annoyed and frustrated. We go up to her to ask what’s wrong, and she explains how the teacher was not letting her talk at all, but jumping around in the subject asking random questions. She still knew the answers, but that’s not the point.

So, he comes up. He overhears that she’s not exactly satisfied with the result, and starts to parody her… (‘Ooh, ooh, poor /name/, what’s wroong, not gonna get a five star?’ [ ~ A+ ], I’m sure you can all imagine…)

So I turn to him, and try to get him to A, stop making fun of her and/or B, fuck off. (‘Look, nobody here cares about what you have to say. We were talking to her. Stop being an ass with her!’)

And the inevitable response comes – he turns over to a friend of his and starts bitching about me. (‘Have I mentioned just how much I love /my name/?!’)

Turning back to me, he did manage to explain that I’m wrong on so many levels (ranging from ‘what IS your problem’ to ‘I wasn’t being an ass with her, you don’t know shit about being an ass if you think I was being an ass!’)

While I was still busy staring at him in disbelief, thinking about something along the lines of ‘hey, we were never friends, but I didn’t know he was that much of an asshole’, he swiftly exited our, uh, conversation, and returned to his mates, all the while huffing about how I could have dared to defend my friend…

So, what’s the point? Nothing I guess. Actually, that was the point

But, you know, at the end of the day, he was still the ‘OMFG-so-cool guy’, which left me in the position of the ‘girl who bitched at OMFG-so-cool-guy’. I’m not saying I expect fairness in any way, especially not from him… But still.

Anyway, life sucks.

As a video, an older favourite: Her Ghost in the Fog by Cradle of Filth. Love this vid…

As always, thanks for reading…
