'Nice' is Out..

Does anyone call you a nice guy?? Then beware! They are, in fact, cursing you. Puzzled?? Yes, for all purposes, Nice is Out. The world today is filled with opportunists, hypocrites and the kind. Selflessness is history and if you care about others it just means you are liable to be branded a 'nut'. Oh! I am not for one minute indicating that I am good. I am no less an hypocrite than any other Tom, Dick and Harry roaming the streets. After all I am human and its in our blood. But there are limits to machiavellism and hypocrisy. Of course the limits are set by oneself and differs from person to person. But limitless opportunism has become the 'in-thing' like bottomless coke :) Ok ok I know I am getting a little boring, but where else can I 'voice it out' :) Just one advice guys: BE SELFISH AND OPPORTUNISTIC...YOU WILL PROSPER!! Ciao...

You know one thing common between me(the donkey is first here due to selfishness :P) and u ?

Both of us align the damn thing after we type :D

There is yet another meaning for nice guys. Gals seem to fall for bad guys. As in the real haughty ones with some attitude. Mind you guys, not too much , else, we leave you out in the cold!

You need to be selfish to survive. And selfless, to show some human-sixth-sense-of-judgement-trait. Smart ones will know when to use what.

Remember how selfish we were while doing those posters for P.S. Notice board in placing the names :)

Is opportunism bad? If i need help from a distant friend at Netherlands,i would do some sweet talk and then ask for help. that can be opportunistic, but is it bad? i would do the same help for a person for who hasnt bothered to contact me till then.

as long as the end justifies the means, it is not bad...the world was always like this.its not just now that people are opportunistic. With what little knowledge i have of the Gita, i would say that even Lord Krishna was an opportunist.

So should we really put the word "opportunism" under the list of "not nice"?
