Where do you think Pete is from? He is not an American citizen, No English, no Canadian, nope indian.. He has acquired his own citizenship- He is a Netizen.
Pete is a character, a subject; I prefer to call him geek and he takes a lot of pride in hearing that.
Pete’s hobbies are making friends, watching movie, playing games, role-plays, reading, writing, talking, dating, socializing, collecting pictures, writing and current awareness.
He feels he has no time to pursue all his passions. 10-12 hrs in/about office, 3 hours cleaning and arranging daily routines,6-7 hours sleep,2 hours cooking,1 hour phone/tv.
Yeah, I am convinced. Ain't you, same goes with all of us-No time, huh?
So he made a way out and resorted to internet.
The above excerpt is when he was trying to socialize. He believes socializing and dating are like path and the destination,in that order. I understand completely.
He happened to be the talk of the town once. Tall, athletic, lean, dark and ever so effervescent till he discovered loneliness comes with its own qualms and prizes. I hate internet now, though I'm as much addict as he is. He has though reached critical stages of the disease, No cure possible.
Well he is still tall, there isn't any reverse-osmosis else he would have been short by now. But his height is winnowed by his diametrical blessings off late. His darkness has given way to patchy complexion.
We have not met for years. We don't feel the need to meet.
It feels that our relationship had reached metaphysical heights , we convert ourselves into indistinguishable particles traveling through wire full networks meeting somewhere in universe, embracing , indulging and departing as if we have been one with each other.
I was his roommate for a couple of months. First thing he used to do before opening his eyes was to put on the music. Now he keeps his system on standby and opens his eyes to see 100 mails, invitations, offline messages,
The subject lines are in all possible scary fonts size,text,codes. Samples( check your spam folder, you've got them too) :
# Luckiest person. REGISTER FREE
# Sweethoney waiting for you.
# 2 new crushes in Philadelphia.Meet them now.
# Blast your blog http://Pete-haveabreak / across the web
# **EARN MONEY UPTO 10000$ sitting at home**
# Travel free 2 nites+3days
# Movie forumz-premier members- Free movie online
# ** FREE COMMERCIAL AVIATION MAGAZINE**
# Pols and Pills
Oh shoot!
Pete understands the effort the sender/spammer/system has taken and appreciates it by opening each of the mails and replying to what he believes is fit.
We performed a series of tests to diagnosis the criticality of the disease "netiphilia" against his hobbies and see if he manages to pursue something and here are the findings.
1. Sports:
He has scored more than Theiry Henry in FIFA video games. Pass
2. Outdoor touring:
He has seen the Saharas,Pampas-Prairies, rainforest, Niagra, Barabados, Hiroshima-Nagasaki, black sea, red sea, Antarctic-Arctic everything over the net. Pass
3. We remembered his art of making faces :
He can make all the YM smileys even on Notepad. Pass
4. A lady-hunter.
He has been dating around 2 dozen girls from around the world, meeting up is never his priority.That will mean, leaving the laptop alone. Pass
5. According to his super ex-GF , he was a great kisser.
He still has great kissing techniques from smileys ( :-*) to syllables comprising mostly of the alliterations made up of a , m , u and h. Pass
He is 35 now- time to marry and shoulder the responsibility to carry forward his family lineage. He still not harbouring his ship. I think he is waiting for the time when the technology can make him a father through internet.
IMSTD about myself, Any counselors?
Wots dat IMSTD :-?? Ask me ;-)- I will tell ya.
