Self-entitled bunnies.
We've all come across those highly demanding individuals who expect you to be on your best behavior around them and contrastingly, funny how they give themselves the liberty and comfort to be as impulsive and careless as they'd want to be with others. Welcome to the list of self-entitled, self-proclaimed know-it-alls. Like bunnies that are quick to pop out of nowhere, these creatures are those who can manifest in your day-to-day operations with no explanation, just to give you an explanation. It gets funnier when they think their opinion matters.
They don't care if anyone asked for their views. They just want to speak up regardlessly. They are highly sensitive about how much importance you give them. And highly critical of everything you do or don't do. They are easy to disappoint. Their minds are constantly thinking of trivial courtesies that they think the others ought to extend to them. They live in a bubble and sit on a throne - both invisible to others - from a distance, where they think the divine has given them the authority to judge everything. They corner the ones who are soft targets and derive great pleasure in demeaning their preys. They have an insatiable appetite for destruction of an other's sense of self. They set themselves upon a pedestal - on their own, and expect people to look up, just because they think they are that good.
All of this can be taxing to genuine people simply because we are almost always unprepared for stupidity coming our way. And most of us wouldn't know how to tackle it. When at times ignorance can be sheer bliss, it is hard to fight these predictable yet intrusive bunnies.
Self-entitlement is a disease that has no cure. Because it is something that stems from a deep lacking of confidence. Not the kind of confidence that is exterior. But it is the most slyest, hidden, desperate need to enforce a person's importance when they are sure their mere being won't yield the same.
It's a pity that such people don't realize that respect cannot be demanded. It comes to you when you deserve it. Just like love, it can't be forced. If there's even one self-entitled person reading this who is wise enough to hopefully see the mirror and scrutinize himself, I'd be more than happy. Lesser bunnies popping up, lesser stupid surprises to deal with.
