I feel sorry for Minorin.

justfreakingwater

That’s all that is to it. Why?

  • Drinking water from a bottle. Does Minorin get infected from the water? No. Did she even know? It probably would’ve escaped her mind until someone decided to mass post and raeg.
  • There are worse things going on in the world and worse things have been done. But no, just because it was an idol and people are jealous and angry over a bottle, you have to make a big deal out of it.
  • This.

It might be gross, it might be reckless, but get on with it. Troll? Fail? Call it whatever. My argument? Stereotypes, overreacting and jealousy. All that it boils down to. So kudos, Setsuna, you’ve manage to show us how the world can totally doramatize stuff when unneeded.

    That’s what I’ve been thinking: it’s just a water bottle, yet many people are making such a big fuss over it!

    @nekosasu: Now that people know about it Evian gets way more PR than if it went in secret. Good thing?
    @jusuchin85: People are just plain dumb sometimes.
    @gukichan: Now if he did something bad with the straw…whole new story.

    Setsuna’s deed is indeed a proof to show how irrational human beings can be no matter how trivial things may be.

    I don’t get all the hubbub; yes, overreaction (much in the same fashion as many transient topics). O.o

    @Bill: How the world has fallen…
    @RyanA: I smell jealousy in the crowd.

    Most of it sounds like bandwagon jumping to me. Bandwagon jumping is the most popular thing out there, unfortunately.

    Evian’s gonna see a good 1337% increment of sales. Good news for them!

    @Izumi Saya: Because that’s what they do when they can’t get a drink of Minorin’s water. ~_~
    @Netto: And Minorin will partner up with Evian to make even more sales! xD

    I’ve been thinking about this…

    Every time such things happen in South East Asia (e.g AFA08’s kowtow man, DaiCon 09’s Minorin incident), wouldn’t that put off more artistes from arriving at our shores?
