The Tranny Tyrant

My Facebook page news feed is not filled with a cacophony of statuses dripping with anger, disappointment, resentment and dare I say it, self-righteousness. The Lady of The Hour is non other than Miss Amy Cheong. I shan't elaborate further on what she said and before anything else, let me just say that I am not angry at Miss Amy. If anything else, I am thoroughly amused at the whole saga.

So no, this post is not going to be filled with even the slightest once of negativity. My blog is far too fun to be filled with self-righteousness and pearls of wisdom. The friends that I have is a testament to the lack of class and elegance and that is the very backbone of the way I live my life.

I have been living in this multi racial country close to a quarter of a century and if there is one thing I've learnt about racist folks, the best way to deal with it is to laugh it off. And after the initial laughter, what else is there left to stand up for? Ignorance is bliss. Ignorance to ignorant people; more bliss.

Honesyly, upon reading the comment made my Miss Amy for the very first time, I actually chuckled. There wasn't any wave of anger, not even the slightest bit. I don't think the Malays in Singapore should feel victimized by her comments at all.

"It's a joke right? I mean, 50 bucks for a wedding? How can people with common sense not just laugh it off? You can't book Hotel 81 or Fragrance even for a night with 50 bucks!" Star said on Skype last night. I am not the very least surprised that Star knows the room rates of various budget hotels in Singapore. "I'm not bringing him to my place and have him stain my sheets. And there is no way in hell that I am going over to his place and be assaulted by the stench of dried cum", she would always say.

"She obviously have not been to many Malay weddings in her life. I love going to Malay weddings and see the confused looks that I get from the Makciks", Melanie added. "Once, there was this Makcik, bless her soul, whoever she was, but she came up to me and scratched her head asking if I was a transgendered woman. I said yes and she started laughing and hugging me saying that I looked like Naomi Campbell. Isn't that lovely?" Melanie continued.

"How is that a compliment?" Star typed.

"Shut up Star. All I am trying to say is there are more open minded Malay Makciks than you think. Maybe that's why there is a lot of Malay gay boys around!" Melanie reasoned.

"That's racist", Star said.

"And homophobic", I added. "Star, please print screen this conversation and alert the authorities. Miss Amy needs a partner in crime", I teased.

"Oh please do guys. I am just dying to be famous, for whatever reason there is. I want to be called The Tranny Tyrant."

I logged off Skype immediately.

Soon after Melanie what sapped me a picture of her holding a kitchen knife. She also texted, "The Tranny Tyrant is here to cute your balls off. nobody logs off Skype without telling The Tranny Tyrant. The Tranny Tyrant is coming for you!"

She's not even famous yet and she has started to speak in third person. Your call Miss Amy.
