Have you ever encountered this situation? You were talking with your friends, which by the way come from different majors – well, they’re not actually that different, in the sense that some of them went to the same school. While the group was in one good topic, talking some random things with no clear ends, but it’s okay since everyone seemed to enjoy it, one of them suddenly mentioned something which is totally alien for you, and some of your friends. And the mood began to sink. Need an example?

Ok, I’ll take one from mine. Me and the gangs were just chilling, having just finished our ‘gathering’ session. Chatter went from one to another, and with no one brings it to nobody’s attention, the word filter came into the surface. Right after that, one of my friend who happened to be a student of one of the biggest school in my college said something about that filter word which isn’t quite common for us to understand. It’s about how he and the other guys had just learnt about that filter thing in their lectures, how it works, various types of it, and not to forget the lame jokes their lecturer threw during the class. Suddenly the gangs were divided into two groups: those who laughed at that jokes, and those who didn’t.

And such separation seemed to have long future since that joke apparently wasn’t the lamest. There’s another one.

Or two.

Or three.

Or many more.

And the exclusive laughter went all along.

Those of you who’s familiar with Sociology may or may not agree with me, but I think this kind of social seggregation follows the law of Amoeba reproduction. It grows exponentially!

Back to my story, we, who found it hard to laugh, will immediately group ourselves according to the most obvious factor we can identify. Let’s say there were seven of us left with three were coming from the same hometown, two were roommates, and the other two just incidentally wore shirts with the same color. These seven – guess which group I belong to – unconsciously divide ourselves into three groups: the first three discussing about the latest scandal of their home politician, the next two talking about that weird sound coming from the room upstairs last night, and the last two seriously involved in debating which character should’ve just died on the last episode of an anime series.

Terrible isn’t it? I mean, what is the point of having a group talk if we can only talk with two people at most since the rest are just busy with their own topic? And all this ‘mess’ was started by just some silly word!!

That’s why I deeply ‘condemn’ – hmm, sounds like a Bush talking to a World about a Kim – these social culprit for interrupting the world peace with their selfish, intollerant and thoughtless action. And everytime they start to show their existence, my policy is to get rid of their action with things like: “Woiiii!! Roaming neh!!” or “Wooow…. Seru banget kayanya yah??” *with sarcastic tone*. If such thing still persist, I tell myself to leave the location immediately. No point what!
