I got inspiration for this post from Wishbone who tagged me with a post called ‘5 Scaries for Kids’. I never respond to tags but I shall blog about my greatest fear as a child.

I thought for sometime about what fears I had as a child and I almost couldn’t think of any. Not that I am fearless but I conquered my fears whenever I had any as a child. I was once afraid of heights but I forced myself to look down over ledges whenever I could. I was afraid of the dark and ghosts but I made myself walk through the kitchen and to the toilet in darkness. I am trying to recall the mentality that I had that made me want to conquer those fears. I think I was influenced by all the comics I read when I was young and a lot of them had a hero who faced their weaknesses and came out stronger.

Every Hero has their weaknesses…. and bad wardrobe days.

So in a way, the hundreds of dollars I’ve spent as a child on comic books didn’t go to waste after all! There was lessons to be learnt in between the pages of over-sized boobies found on female manga characters!

There was one fear that I couldn’t get rid of and it probably will stick with me throughout my life. The fear of death. Not mine but of people whom I care about.

It’s kinda dark for a child to think of such things but I was like that as a child. I would ponder about the meaning of life and my imaginative mind will somehow imagine scenarios if loved ones like my mother died. These moments will usually come in the dead of the night before I go to sleep and tears will stream down my face as my mind plays out the scenario. Kinda wimpy for a boy but I get so involved in those imaginations to the point where it seems so real.

I breakdown whenever I attend a funeral and see someone in tears. I just feel so sorry for the people who have to live with the absence of their loved ones.

I was looking at my web statistics at statcounter.com when I noticed a spike in my traffic.

Usually, my unique hits per day will hover around 100 and slightly around 150 if I blog on that day. So, I found it weird that there was a spike when all I did was blog about Dragonball. I don’t think i’ll get that much pongs from ping.sg or get featured on tomorrow.sg just because i talked about Bulma flashing her pom pom.

So, I went to check on where the traffic came from, and I found this.

HARDWAREZONE FORUMS? Why the hell would a link appear at hardwarezone which will lead to me?

I then followed the link to find out that there is a guy/hippo that blatantly copied and pasted my whole entry in a new thread about the one of me being molested. He even bothered to keep the formating i originally used.

This is the hippo that plagiarized my work

I then searched around for the link that led to my original work. Couldn’t find any till I saw this ‘clue’ that the hippo left behind.

.

After looking at the 1st post in the thread again… this is where he ‘credited’ me.

.

Luckily, the people at hardwarezone are clever enough to question if it was the hippo’s original work and clever enough to find that “smily gotch secret and peekture…”

I dug out my old hardwarezone password and commented on the thread. I wasn’t angry at all after i found out he linked me up, however in such a weird manner. But, a superhero appeared and told him off.

(Acts gay) Wah…. Wendy, my hero!
