I believe when I wake up next morning, I am going to regret writing this. I have told many people not to judge others. I have told many people that there is no such thing as a bad blog. I am about to break that cardinal rule myself.I was browsing through Cowboy Bar when I came across a thread discussing how a certain Pink blogger was bashing a fellow blogger over the latter's nude pics.
I dismissed the notion that some claimed that Pink was just being a sour grape, now that another person has surpassed her in terms of blog fame and popularity.
I also dismissed another notion that Pink was trying to score hits to her blog by stirring up a hornet's nest. Surely, she can't be that pathetic, right?
I can understand that the rant in her blog (yes, I went over.) was directed at all the daft attention that came pouring over the pictures. With no thanks to the Mickey Mouse media who made such a big f*cking deal, the mindless peons are buzzing non-stop about it. I agree with Pink that it's merely a couple of pictures and I too, feel sorry for the severely deprived people out there, lapping it all up like a thirsty dog.
However, what pushed me over the edge was the personal attack on the innocent blogger. What the innocent blogger choose to do on her blog is her business and all of Pink's personal attacks on her, just didn't go down well with me. For the record, I don't know this innocent blogger and I am not writing this in her defence. I am writing this because I am appalled at such nasty behaviour.
YOU CROSSED THE LINE. YOU DUMBASS.
To take somebody's photo and alter it in mockery is UTMOST DISRESPECTFUL. All of us are all God's beautiful creation. So who the f*ck died and made Pink the authority on how we should look?
Dear Pink,
Congratulations. You have sunk to a new low. Some say that you looked beautiful in the photos, others say that it's because you caked your face up to get there. I say to them, "let's not waste time arguing over this, for both are merely skin-deep trivia". What matters most is that you have a rotten core for a human being. I am glad blog was invented and you are part of it. Otherwise, we would have been fooled by your exterior and not see what's behind that mask of yours. Now that I have seen the inside, I am not impressed.Suddenly, missing Bloggers.sg doesn't looked so bad after all.
Tommorrow.sg's credibility takes a severe beating with you on it.
You have lowered yourself to the bottom of the scum pit.
Here, take the shovel and start digging. You still have a long way to go. Dumbass.

From the way she wrote her entry, i can sense there's some sort of jealousy going on there. It is quite obvious that the lady took her limelight and she ain't happy bout it. Probably because she couldn't do the same thing (posing nude artistically) as what the lady had done. Maybe she is jealous also because the lady is younger than her and achieved a kind of lifestyle that not many can get.
Well this is my point of view.

when i read Pink's entry bout the other lady i was quite turn off by what she said. Pink's practically contradicting herself. She said that whatever one blogs in their blog is their own business and what did she do? Also, she claimed that she is not insulting the lady only criticising her body.

Very well crafted rant with just enough humour and sarcasm (not too deep though, otherwise lovers of pink might not catch it) although I would have loved to see the original draft. Especially loved the "dropping a nuclear warhead on a garden slug" bit, you might get emails of protest from garden slugs (or their supporters, you never know) stating that comparing her to a slug is an insult, to slugs everywhere.

Great post. I couldn't have put it better. Would love to have your first draft though. Bandung Vader has fallen into the evil side. For months she have been showing signs of it, but people gave her a chance. Now this is the last straw liao. I am sure I'll glare at her at the BloggerCon. WTF is she doing in Tomorrow? And at the BloggerCon meeting? I hope they won't make this event PINK. Woe is me.

zeenie: Good one with the slugs! ~LOL. I was pretty emotional when I did the first draft and I saw the BMW* in me. Fortunately, I have enough good sense to slam the brakes in time and trim off the parts, that even I think BMW didn't deserve.

AnthonyK: What ticked me off, was that the attack was unwarranted. I just felt that I need to take a stand and voice my displeasure here.
My concern is that Bandung Vader is on the board of the vetting process of Tomorrow.sg. Will our submissions be treated with the same condescending attitude as exhibited by her blog?

And for a blogger who gets 8000 hits a day, she needs to be smart enough to exercise some control and decorum over her writing, especially when she has an entire herd of sheep all ready to tear down/trample/drive away anyone she dislikes. She does not seem to understand the ramifications of her actions, and the responsibilities and power she holds. That's why she's dumb. She's not intelligent enough to draw a line between what she can do and can't do, and what is deliciously sly humour and outright insults.

Tinkertailor: Darth Bandung IS a dumbass. She's a disrespectful dumbass at that. There are ways of criticising people without behaving in such a blatantly childish manner. Honestly, "dumbass" is probably too kind for her. What about all the names she's called other people (not just SPG)? In my opinion, her actions this time have crossed the line from being merely bitchy to being downright vicious.And for a blogger who gets 8000 hits a day, she needs to be smart enough to exercise some control and decorum over her writing, especially when she has an entire herd of sheep all ready to tear down/trample/drive away anyone she dislikes.

I think Mickey Mouse will feature her blog again this weekend. However, I believe she has stepped into the Dark Side, a long and slippery road. Darth Pink NaBeh of Flur Buck System is born.
