Whatever

Filler post to push the last post down. *rolls eyes*

Aside from the obvious, I've been good, if you're curious.

Actually not really, caught some weird illness few days back and haven't fully recovered since.

Symptoms include: nausea, lack of appetite, and an upset stomach.

I actually feel sick thinking about fried chicken. Can you imagine that? That must show the severity of my condition somehow or rather. Stupid KFC I had. I knew it tasted funny when i took one bite. I should have known.

And to Mr. and Mrs. Gloryhunters out there, stfu please and win on your own merit. I can't wait to see the day you end up empty-handed. Let's see how you cope then eh. You think your team is obliged to win something every year. You think it is part of the 'contract' as a supporter that you'll get to celebrate that whatever trophy you get at the end of the season. Well reality check, no.

That's why not many people I feel understand the true attachment someone can have to football, to their favourite team. You stick with your team for all those years, through that many ups and downs, tears and jubilation, stormy weather and clear skies, trophies and no trophies, and that's why every victory in the present is that much significant to you.

And that is where and when you get the right to taunt an opposing team and its supporters, because you had experienced so much stick yourself for that significant period of time. That's why the day you lift a trophy you automatically get the right to shove it into a rival's face and leave permanent scars and bruises from the impact of the shove.

Not you, mr. (and mrs.) gloryhunter who have never weathered the storm, let alone know what finishing a season disappointingly feels like.

Now, from a personal perspective, it's high time we do not end the season 'disappointingly'. My fellow Gooners have been struck by lightning, sunk to the depths of the ocean, blown away by hurricanes, multiple times, and have our what we thought was our safe shelter at last 'robbed' away from us for countless of times. One more realistic trophy to achieve, let's do it now or never.

Rant ends here.
