Kookie's "Haters"

Although this world is composed of many optimistic viewers, it's packed with haters and negative thinkers. The term hater is just a harsh way of saying someone who strongly hates someone or something. One of the reasons that relationships can be broken apart and disrupted is because of how people view the opposing person or what they do. Vowell says that "all [her father] cared about were guns"(Vowell 6). If people tried a little more for the relationship and even made an attempt to try and show interest in the other person's hobbies, the bond between the people would most definitely become stronger and tighter.
People bring out the different qualities of a person continuously although it's unnecessary. It has become an unconscious action and it can even be exaggerated to be a judgement against someone. It's funny how people characterize others negatively when they aren't even perfect themselves. Everyone has his/her own interest or hobby. This world would be a much more peaceful and loving community if and only if people built strong relationships with people and didn't create enemies. Inside, people are all alike if they choose to be. A person you thought who was totally different from you can turn out to be like your very own twin. It's all a matter of how people perceive others. Vowell declares that "[her] dad and [herself] are the same person"(Vowell 29). After a person goes through certain stages of maturity, people's mentality levels change and they understand that they just chose to perceive the certain person in a judgemental way. Regrettance certainly follows a person around for the rest of their lives when they realize this too late. People need to catch onto the fact that everyone has certain interests and judging them for it does them no good.

  1. Hi Michelle,
    I thought your post was very intriguing. It is true everyone is a hypocrite, amusing when we criticize others for criticizing. I agree it is very important to recognize the interests of others, but it is also impossible to fully understand, since we are obviously not the other person.
    nice read!
