| Ruhut Sitompul (source : petisikotbah.wordpress.com) |
To be honest, I haven't stayed tuned to the news of our country lately. First of all, I don't own a television in my small rented room, and two; I'm too busy to listen to those dumb politicians and stuffs. And maybe the third reason is I'm starting to get some kind of addiction to Youtube. My kind of news now are only the ones I get from hundreds tiny updates flowing in my timeline on Twitter telling if Bruno Mars is on his way to Indonesia, that Rebecca Black is not a myth and she's singing some kind of song called Friday which I don't understand why people hated it so much, and if Mr TS, our minister of porn (seriously as if we had one), says some moronic things--again.
So after I decided to catched things up this afternoon by opening a news site and then read the title "Ruhut: Roy Suryo Hanya Ingin Terkenal" on the headline, I knew I shouldn't have done it in the first place.
One thing flashed in my mind was; THEY'RE STILL ALIVE?
I was kind of wishing that I'd read some news about Libya, recent updates from Japan earthquake, or perhaps that Melinda-the-swindler people are talking about, but all that I saw at first was RUHUT and ROY SURYO--the dumb and dumber.
I have to clarify, I don't hold any grudge against those two. Ruhut is funny, actually. He should be a comedian rather than a lawyer or legislator. And Roy Suryo.... Well, Roy Suryo. Though he often reminds me of the type of guy who's prone to be teased and bullied at school, he's smart enough to tell his opinion if Ariel and Luna Maya's super hot video clip was fake or genuine. So just let him live for the sake of humanity.
But I also have to say, finding their names on the headline was annoying.
The worse part? The news was actually about the soon-to-be-built brand new House of Representatives' office.
It's 2011, people. And yet, they're still having arguments about that.
I wish the earth would open up a big hole under our lovely Gedung Senayan and just swallow it. Then we wouldn't have to argue over such idiot thing anymore.
I got D on my Calculus I, and I could say that building a new House of Representatives' office is non-sense. Now we pay millions of Rupiahs on Mr Lawyer, Ruhut Sitompul, and Mr IT Expert, Roy Suryo, to argue if the idea building the new and majestic construction is sensible or not. My conclusion? Mr Sitompul and Mr Suryo got E on their Calculus I.
But it's interesting to see the same political party members debated over this issue anyway. As the title of the news said, Ruhut pointed that Roy Suryo is just trying to get more popularity by objecting the new building. And if it's true, I'm impressed on how Mr Suryo attempts to lick 200 millions Indonesians' asses by taking stance. How noble of him.
However, frankly speaking, it's not wrong at all trying to get more attention. Whatever Mr Suryo is doing right now, he couldn't be more popular and adored than Justin Bieber anyway. He could just climb to the top of House of Representatives' office, writing things like 'DPR SUCKS' or 'WE WANT JUSTICE!' on the roof, but the teenagers wouldn't even interested in putting his posters on their bedroom walls. So Ruhut, what are you worrying about after all?
My advice for Roy Suryo, if you really intend to gain more popularity, post a video singing one of our Mr President's self-written song in your bathroom on Youtube. Or else, you could just write a book titled 'Kuyakin Sampai ke Seberang' or 'Roy Suryo sang pakar IT' and distribute them to elementary and middle schools. If you're too lazy to do that, why not asking some mad unknown writer to write 'Gurita Roy Suryo' for you. Nah, that's what we call famous.
But if your true motive is really to defend the people, please keep doing what you think is right and just pretend that Ruhut is a member of Telletubies--which I'm doubting so much.
And for Ruhut, all I can say is; don't worry, be happy. What about kicking out Mr Suryo from your party if it's so annoying? Or maybe buy him an iPad 2 so he can shut up and get back to his geek-mode. Hope that's a good bribe. iPad 2 is so hot right now!
But if all of those fail, I hope you're not regretting taking him to the Democratic Party. Whoever recruited him must be dumber than Mr Suryo who blurted things out without consulting the faction.
Last but not least, smile, Ruhut! Nobody makes House of Representatives funnier than you.
And keep making your jokes as us, people, are waiting for your office finally tumbling down.
