I'm an upset man.
I just watched my fellow colleagues... and humans... torture an animal. And I failed to stop them.
One of my colleagues managed to catch a rat (Tekong's infested with them) and soon enough there was a commotion. One by one they were fooling around with it, throwing it into a black rubbish bin and using air guns to spray at it and hose it down with water pipes, while at the same time excitedly discussing how to torture the rat.
I'm not a fan of rats either, they spread diseases and are dirty little animals, but to torture the animal? How F****N' sick is that?
The rat was terrified, its already lost part of its tail and was bleeding, and them sick colleagues of mine decided to drown the critter in the black rubbish bin with water that has been laced with industrial-grade Permathrine, a heavy-duty insect repellant we use to soak our uniforms in before going outfield. I tried my best to stop them, but I might as well have been trying to reason with a mob crowd, 'cos that's what they were, those f*****s. I couldn't stand it anymore, I left the place, I couldn't bear to hear or witness what they were gonna do to the creature.
Some 2 hours later when they were all busy playing PS2 in the company office, I decided to seek out the rat in the bin, and what I saw truly saddened me. The bin was 3/4 full of insecticide-laced water, and I saw poking out of the water a snout, the rat still alive after 2 hours of trying to keep itself afloat and breathing. Without anyone seeing, I poured out the water, letting the rat free, but unfortunately the rat was by now blinded and possibly poisoned. Instead of scampering off, it limped away from the sunlight indoors towards the other end of the wall. I tried to get it unsuccessfully get it to run away, but its too damaged to run or even escape. Eventually Encik's probing caused me to leave the rat, and I had hoped that no one would notice it hidden behind the bin. This was not to be, in the end the clerk found it, and caused another commotion, and last I heard they were torturing it with a lighter. I hope for its own sake the rat died. I couldn't bear seeing the kind of condition it was in after the soak in Permathrine, much less after being tortured with fire.
WHATTHEF*CK's WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?! So what if it's a rat, reptile or insect, why do you guys like to torture every single creature you see? From burning worms and caterpillars, to trying to drown the rat in f*ckin' Permathrine, how could you guys be so heartless? So what if it's a rat, it's not its fault it was born a rat, it's just f*ckin' trying to live as how God created it! Why couldn't you guys just catch it and let it go, or even if you have to kill it, make it a quick one, so the animal doesn't have to suffer. Maybe you could say I'm being too sensitive. Or maybe it's because I've kept hamsters before and they might resemble a rat to people for all they care. But the fact is we're humans! We've been created with the power of reasoning, with compassion, and here I see my colleagues drunk with excitement, and giddy with laughter... at what? At the prospect of torturing a rat.
And you know what saddens me the most? The people most excited about torturing the animal were my fellow Muslims. They showed a complete lack of respect to the month of Ramadhan, a complete disregard to the fact that they were fasting (though some weren't) ,a complete lack of respect for God's teachings, and a complete lack of respect for a life that God created.
Curse you all. Nauzubillahiminzalik.
