Steven who?

Just a few days ago, I was having a casual conversation with an coursemate (who knows my identity) and knowing I was particularly bitchy (Yes if you haven realised by now) she requested me to bitch tweet about a particular Steven Limp. The Steven Limp which has caused the twitterverse to be bustling with activity. As i scrolled through my home feed, I realized it was in particular respond to him, a 35 yo guy, dating a 16yo girl. And in spite of  all these negative criticism and contempt about him, Steven Limp especially seemed to enjoy the attention he was given.

I seriously, have never heard of this Steven guy, and only through the conversation with my coursemate, did i realise he was dating a 16yo girl,  participated in the first Singapore Idle in only underwear or something, and other negative stuff about him.

I have seriously never heard of this Steven bugger before, and this is my response to him, and let me quote Mr Cheo, the YPAP member (If you have forgotten about him, please read Twitter Wars Part 1: http://therealfakentu.blogspot.com/2011/02/twitter-wars.html)



In Singapore, some people crave for attention and popularity. Well, for those who suck and fail to get popular, may attempt to create attention for themselves via negative controversy. And this is what this bugger is doing. He tried to make himself popular, by creating a big hoo-ha, for himself. Can't get him self popular? No problem. Appear in Singapore Idle only in underwear. Date a 16yo girl. Act retarded and respond to every single criticism tweet. That is it, he is basking in negative limlight. And he seems to like it.

Consider a theoratical example, imagine you are a girl, walking along a deserted stretch of road, and suddenly a man wearing nothing but a trench coat, flashes to you. How would you react? If you scream, cover your eyes and then run off, the flasher gets even more sexcited, and he derives his perverse satisfaction from flashing his privates to young girls. So what would be best? I quote Mr Cheo again "Oh what, no body gives a fuck"  that's it. Just walk straight on. Ignore the flasher. Deprive him of such a satisfaction of seeing your fear.

That's it, if you loathe a person with such contempt, just ignore him, like Mr Cheo says "No body gives a fuck" For people like Steven Limp and similar flashers they derive their attention from negative limelight, and by piling and creating more controversy for him, gives him EVEN more attention. Look at the number of followers he has on his twitter, 300 over?

Similar to Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber. If you don't like them, saying that they can't sing, are still undergoing puberty, its fine. Do not create anti-Miley nor anti-Bieber controversy, au contrary, you are even creating more limelight for them and even help Miley and Bieber fans gel together.

Its just like this pesedo Valentine's Day break up video, whereby a guy is seen by his girlfriend dating another girl on valentines day. The girlfriend then continues to make a fuss about the guy reusing plastic bottle.



Yes, i believe it was a Poly project, to create awareness of pastic bottles actually being harmful if reused. And while viewers scolded the guy for being heartless, and some others slammed the video for being a fucking fake video; it attracted a lot of hits. Similarly, the makers of the youtube vid, used such negative controversy, to attract attention for their video, and for their project.


These people in life, like Steven Limp, flashers, and the makers of the above mentioned youtube vid, try to get themselves popular via controversy and negative limelight. And the more you may loathe them, the best way to do so is not by criticizing them, but to starve them off of any attention. Do not bother criticizing, do not bother insulting them. These people bask in criticism and are loving the attention you give them.

Remember what Mr Cheo said, "I figure who the fuck are you is the bigger question? Oh wait no body gives a fuck, so don't bother answering."

And whatever you do Steven Limp, is not of my problem. You can date a 16 yo girl, or 61 yo girl, is none of my problem. And like your name, may you go limp in where it matters to you.

PS: And by creating this blogpost, i have already inadvertently created attention for him. Oh well, but my purpose was to bitch and educate the general public :)
