Of friends and scumbags

I've recently met Jacob, whom I've heard some pretty bad things about (and vice versa) and I'm surprised that we got on so well.

I can't believe I thought he was such a horrid person based on what one person whose opinions I had respected once upon a time. And guess what? He also heard bad stuff about me coming from the same person.

I'm utterly disgusted.

But ah well, we decided it's not worth bringing this up with the person, because at the end of the day, we've actually found out the truth about how two-faced the person can be. Apparently people who's worked with him has found out what he's really like, and no one really likes him either, they just put up with his because they don't want to be targeted by him.

In the end, we just felt sorry that he had to buy acceptance from people.

And left it as that.

It just wasn't worth the effort.
