Paranoid ?

Are you paranoid ? If yes, PLEASE stop. Don't you know how annoying that is ? Your insecurities actually irritates (most, anyway) people. Yeah, yeah, we tend to be paranoid some of the time - but....well, forget about it - lest their paranoia takes over them!

Let's switch to a more trivial topic. I read an interesting article last night. The writer pointed out that buying a toothbrush is a nightmare nowadays. Used to be a toothbrush is some bristles with a handle. Full stop. Now they comes is shapes, sizes, colors and different functions to fit you hygiene requirements.  Same goes to other stuff. I was browsing in the mall recently - and was in awe at the sheer offerings available - mind you that was only on the handbag sections! Just browse on the ladies-wear, ad you'll know what I mean. It used to be so simple...there are only few choices in which we can choose. Nowadays we are spoilt for choices. 


Just look at cars. Used to be, when I joined the working world - the (affordable) choice - other than FaMa's hand me downs - are Proton Saga or Satria and Wira probably. Now the new hires can have the choice of buying MyVi, Viva, Suria and off course those who can afford to - Vios and City. As we move towards globalization, the market is more open and hence the affordable goods....That's a good thing, right ?
