Just a Quickie

Tidbits: I'm in college doing the 'Sure Way to Get Fat' Program. Simple, sit in front of the computer and eat sugar crackers. Period.

Anabel got me addicted to these lovely sugar crackers by Cap Ping Pong( say what?). I've already eaten X number of crackers after a sinful meal of Murtabak at the mamak. Tsk. Terrible.

Anyway, I just happen to come across an article the other day I thought most of us would be able to relate to. It's about Facebook, and those who aren't using Facebook just go to Batu Caves and rot there. Haha, what a mean thing to say. Facebook isn't everything under the sun, who cares if you don't have a Facebook account? *minimises window and off to spam comments*

Okay, back. Remember there was once our newspapers/radios/internet/Facebook talked about 'The Best Job in the World'? Yeah, the one where you work on some resort island in Aussieland and get paid quite a sum. Oh, and apparently the job went to some Brit fella who happened to be a volunteer. See, being nice does pay, and pays well.

Man, I should stop beating around the bush. My point is...the best job in the world isn't the job mentioned above. The article I read talked about the maintenance people working at Facebook, and it seems that one of the job scope is to filter obscenity. I'm pretty sure you're getting my point, in the context of the best job in the world.

Apparently, Facebook has some rules like The Nipple Rule and The Fully-Exposed-Butt Rule or something to that. I kid you not. I'm sure you've done one of those 'How horny are you?', 'How good are you in bed?' and 'What sexual position are you?' quizzes. Seen the pictures that came along with them? Yeah. Back to the story, these people actually receive pictures daily and decide its appropriety with reference to the rules. So, basically they just sit in front of the screen and click click. Allow or disallow.


How is it the best job in the world? Hey, how many people actually get paid watching 'encouraging' pictures? There has never been a job so pleasurable. Look, it's way better than an accountant looking at figures okay, and by figures I mean numbers...not the other figures. =)

Done. Back to assignments.

People of the World.....

Tidbits: Sometimes I should just speak and think later.




Let's cry!



I didn't know I was so *cough* influential *cough* that my fantamazing post about the theme park made the world realised how horny we can be.






Sad to say, it's a big dream that'll always remain a dream. According to officials, the park had 'evil influence' on society. I'd say more like physical influence on the anatomy. Geddit? =)





Some people expressed disappointment though. Hmm, define 'some' people. Anyway, I think this whole idea is bullshit from the start, call me old school, but hey, there are other ways that you can hold a sexfest mardi gras.





"The park was above board, so why was it pulled down? How can a country get powerful if it doesn't open its mind?" one person was quoted as saying in the newspaper.




Oh, give me a break. This picture seems to say otherwise. It's opening everything and anything but the mind.



Someone please translate those words for me. Don't answer in the cbox though, my guess is it's going to turn out like ****.

What Irony!

Tidbits: Sometimes politics can become more corrupted than your computer getting infected by the Conficker worm 3184347573298 times. Only then, our leaders are willing to put aside all ego and talk. Isn't it about time?

Having one of the Seven Wonders of the World aside, China is in a state where it has to kick itself in the butt. Maybe its one billion population should do it. We know well enough how conservative Asians, or more specifically the Chinese are. Sex is still very much a taboo topic to be discussed among us, culturally speaking. I mean, many of us take sex as more of a visual topic(if you get what I mean) than a biological one. Don't we all like learning how the sperm gets to the ovum by looking how it's done rather than listening to your Biology teacher who censors more than Malaysian film authorities?


I remember once China made an earth shattering hype about the impropreity of the screening of movies such as 'Lust, Caution' and 'Brokeback Mountain'. Nonetheless, these people prove that exceptions can be made when you have a chance to indulge in something, even if it's almost morally incorrect.


Forget the American Dream! Here's the Chinese Dream- to open a sex theme park! What'd you find there? Hmm, let's see...naked human sculptures(are they trying to go French or Italian now?), giant genitals that will definitely be of good use to Bio students who are struggling to identify the parts of the reproductive system. Cmon, you can't miss the penis if it's that size! Moving on, my personal favourite as it is the most absurd, a sex technique workshop. My guess? It's basically watching the Kama Sutra instead of reading it(Can it even be read?). Workshops usually have demonstrations, don't they?


So, Durex won't have to conduct yearly surveys about the sex lives of Asians anymore. Those busy stressed Chinese businessmen are left without reason not to enjoy their sex lives. Big irony? Nah, big dreams!


Now, can someone buy me an air ticket to China? =)

Tidbits: Come rain, come shine, come what may. For I know the truth will unearth one fine day.
GLAD that I live am I;
That the sky is blue;
Glad for the country lanes,
And the fall of dew.
After the sun the rain;
After the rain the sun;
This is the way of life,
Till the work be done.
All that we need to do,
Be we low or high,
Is to see that we grow
Nearer the sky.

New Beginnings

Tidbits: Sometimes beginnings feel just like history repeating itself. I shall weave my own story for I hate repetition.

Haven't you questioned yourself for the gazillionth time why good things always come to an end? Or why good times pass in the blink of an eye? Bloody hell, HELP should give me another two-week break to procrastinate.On the contrary, if college hadn't start, I would've missed one of the most interesting lectures- Critical Thinking Skills which I happen to enjoy thus far.

So the interesting part goes like this....

"All men watch porn."
"Fact or opinion?"
What's more interesting was that when everyone moved on....
The uber cool lecturer asked a classmate to introduce himself and say something interesting. Out of the blue, she asked whether he watches porn. Didn't know you can tell a porn watcher from his face.
What's more more interesting was.....
His girlfriend was sitting right beside him. No prizes for guessing what he answered. Men will always be men. Enough said.
What's more more more interesting was
that it turned into a battle of the sexes.
"Women are lousy drivers."
"Fact or opinion?"
Needless to say, we all also know that women will always be women.
What's more more more more interesting was
Hartmans called Lady Gaga a bimbo. Hey, beneath the funky hairdos, quirky fashion sense and her eccentric underground black comic lyrics, you've got to give it to her. Hey, no talented people escape from the clutches of weirdness. There would be no such thing as e=mc2 if so. I'm pro-Gaga okay.
What's more more more more more interesting was
the sitting of the Perak assemblymen. Well, I wouldn't call it sitting. More of monkeying around. Oops, that should've stayed intact on my tongue, sensitive kan? Okay, just when you thought it was hard to drag a kid away from a candy store, some people really beh pai seh lorr. I'm speaking of the speaker Sivawhatshisname? Stubborn kid. Take it like a man or in this context, take it like a proud primate! Even if you were ejected, leave and make them worship the ground you paved. The sitting already dramatic enough right, might as well leave dramatically. Furthermore, don't these bunch have any new tricks up their sleeves? A battle of words is so Parliament 2008. From monyet to bodoh, we've heard it all. Move on or climb a tree. (wow, my humour is getting as dry as tree bark)
Life is very interesting after all. And it keeps getting better.
