Calque the Übermensch

So apparently, the term superman comes from German. Odd, huh?

Ironically, at one point, Superman actually fights Nazis in The Justice League.

Calque is a wonderful thing. It's too bad that they don't borrow words from Chinese. Freezer would be ice box, hail would be ice thin, family would be house people, go to hell would be trip street, and who are you kidding would be... something involving a knee eating hot sauce...? o_O

I never understood that one but my parents use it when they know I'm lying... which is quite often. My mom usually says something about tricking to eat hot sauce while pointing to her knee... What? ._.

Ack! Silly Chinese colloquialisms! They're weird. D:

This is How You Know No One Likes Quebec

Awesome!
- Toronto Maple Leafs tix
Best prices on Maple Leafs tickets. Local boutique broker. Top service.
www.bramptontickets.com/
Oddly enough, I actually got that advertisement while publishing an entry about Quebec an the Montreal Canadiens.

And That Means...?

Oh no! Our f***ing Nationals for band is f***ing tomorrow, regardless of how a good third of us didn't want to f***ing go! At all. Whatsoever. Hmph.

Regardless, we must be organized! This is our last class before the Nationals. We must look toward our great teacher and conductor for a good dose of sagacity:

"If we had another rehearsal, we would've already had it. Does anyone know what I mean by that?"

*awkward silence cricket orgy*

Umm. Are you sure you don't want us to practise instead? You know, for Nationals? Which are tomorrow, by the way?

"Anyone?"

No, seriously. We kind of suck. Don't you want to take advantage of our last hour together to practise?

"Well, what I mean is that if you add up all of the time I spent trying to get you all to be quiet and focus, then that would be an entire rehearsal."

On the other hand, you keep us from dismissal until 8:45, 15 minutes past our dismissal time, frequently. If you add that up then that's more than one single rehearsal. F***ing hypocrite.

Oh? Half an hour left? Are you sure you still don't want to rehearse with us? Okay then. F***ing fine. We really don't care anyway and you made us pay 65 bucks.

Hm? Still passive aggressive with us, are we? Well, to be honest, we really don't give a flying f*** anymore. Why do you think no one took music? >_>

Punch You in the Balls

"I will punch you in the balls."

It's my new threat! You've probably heard me say it before. Like it? :)

What's that? "No," you say? I'mma let you finish but I will punch you in the balls. >:o

It's Everyone's Doorknob

This is weird but I DON'T CARE! It's everyone's doorknob!

It's bad enough that doorknobs are full of bacteria but it's ten times more disgusting when people wash their hands and reach for the knob before drying their hands. It just becomes a sticky mess! D:

Ahh... Pet peeves. Everyone has them. :/

Especially me! For example, I will punch you in the balls if you say "irregardless." It's a double negative! RAWR!

No, Seriously. Why?

They say teenage girls and young women like Fred because he's cute. I'm not sure whether to call pedophilia or bestiality on them. :/

Fred is, in essence, similar to that little relative you don't particularly like... so why would you like Fred?

It's like saying, "I hate hypocrites... but I love music!"

It doesn't work that way. :T

Until I see a few thousand of his hundreds of thousands in YouTube money donated to something then his fame and existence is unjustified. Period.

TV is a Bad Influence

Oh bugger... Mumsy, dearest!
Yes, dearest?
Am I supposed to look like those smashing teenagers I saw on the tele?
No, deary. Of course not! What makes you think that?
Well, I'm Chinese... But I don't have bloody wrinkles and I'm not a 40-year-old limey.
Oh, this tea is simply smashing. Bangers and mash!
Seriously! Those "high school" guys in Chinese soap operas are like 40. Eww. :T

Surely there are a couple of decent teenage actors in China somewhere. You know, ones that don't have wrinkles, age, and decay yet? I don't mind the 40-year-old women in the shows though; Chinese women seem to be ageless. It's like they never age!

Oh well... I only have to endure an hour of it while my parents watch it during dinner... daily. :/

Oh bloody 'ell.

Residence Theory

What!?! A meal plan in university residence can cost ~$800? That's insane! There's an easy way around that though.

See, if you eat nothing but ramen noodles, which are $0.33 per package on average, and you eat three "square" meals a day ("square," like the square-shaped packages of instant noodles LOL I'm terrible), then you'd only be spending a dollar a day! A school year is just about 8 months so that's only $240 per year.

$240...? Ouch. That's still pretty expensive! Well... Instant noodles are really bad for you; you should eat some vegetables! Okay, new plan.

So if you eat instant noodles for lunch and dinner (i.e. twice a day) and you eat a "healthy" salad for breakfast daily, consisting of grass and dandelions and crabgrass (the next best thing to lemongrass!), then you'd cut your food cost down to $160 a year! Yay!

Huzzah for economics! :D

Hands Off!

Agh! Parents are always digging around our stuff. :/

It's unfair! If they get to go through my wallet to see how loaded I am, I should get to peek in their wallets... *yoink*

It's nice that parents have good intentions but taking away our video games is just cruel. D:

We can't just work hard and study all the time! We'd be... him... if we did.

Y'all know who I'm talkin' about. :/

The Birds and the Wasps

Have I ever mentioned that I hate bees and wasps? I can't even pronounce "wasps." I mean, what? S, P, and S? Together? Blasphemy!

So yeah. It's a miracle that I can stand being stalked by a bumblebee and even that takes a great deal of willpower.

Well anyway, I blame the city strike. That's all you need to say. The city strike and the public school system can be blamed for just about everything.

They're actually to blame this time. ;D

Because of them, the number of fruit flies in Toronto has increased significantly. I dislike. :/

The school system can be blamed, too! In our little portable, we get attacked by wasps because we're so close to the nasty dumpster. This one little wasp keeps visiting us all alone. We're pretty sure it's the same wasp every time; Mr. Richards has named it Henry, if I'm not mistaken.

He's the class pet that attacks us! <3

Canadian Canadiens

The Montreal Canadiens!

Worst. Mascot. Ever.

How would you like it if we changed our hockey team to the Toronto Maple North Americans? Hm? Thought so. :/

But seriously, Quebec sucks. xD

For example, Canadian health care is excellent... except in Quebec. They actually have a law or something that limits the number of doctors available in the province. Good luck with that. :/

Bend a What? Bend a Who?

I'll bend your face soon! Err... I mean...

Bendaroos!

That just sounds like disfiguring, maiming, and the outcome of mixing one pedo-ing DunkAroos kangaroo with an acrobat.

So they decided to have an infomercial. Ahh. How original. They really screwed up though.

"We'll give you five hundred rainbow Bendaroos!"

They then used their crappy clip art to make magical bags of Bendaroos appear. It's just too bad that they're colour-confused. I saw black, cyan, green, yellow, and white Bendaroos. Key word: rainbow. :/

What's the use of Bendaroos? Pipe cleaners are totally not the same thing, and so what if pipe cleaners don't require your credit card number? With Bendaroos, you can...! Umm... You can... make a demented braindead hippo thing? o_O

You can make a... err... piece of shit? Oh, sorry. I meant to say a "fly."

Alternatively, you can make a terrorist! Wait, what? It's not a terrorist? What is it then? A rapist? No? Oh... It's Spiderman. :T

Be a Man!

Or a woman!

As long as you pick one, and only one, I don't really care.

I hate it when you can't tell someone's gender even when you're looking straight at them! The bob/bowl cut, gender-neutral attire and voice, and odd lack of physical features of either gender is just eerie.

So we're left with a choice: is it a really Will-&-Grace guy or a butt-ugly girl? Hmm...

Of course, the dilemma isn't simply resolved with him/her/it prancing around in a band geek uniform skirt; that could easily be a prank, dare, or lost bet. :T

Speaking of the band uniforms, what the hell was their budget? o_O

Surely we could've had better uniforms that were better than blankets (skirts), ties (for guys), ties (supposed to be a scarf for girls), and jackets that fit no one; at least one area is always a little (lot >_>) too wide or tight.

The best part is that the people who distribute the ugly uniforms are always late. Ironically, the unwarranted-self-important ringleader bitches and moans when we're late for rehearsal. By -4 minutes.

Yep. We love arriving fifteen minutes early, just so we can be dismissed fifteen minutes late. Thanks. F***ing thanks.

Well, at least I won't have to endure that anymore. <3

Friends for Sale

I'm not talking about the application on Facebook but while we're on the topic of FFS, why not?

The concept is to buy and sell friends to attach a monetary value to them. Once you own them, you can give them various creepy/gross commands. That sounds like virtual slavery to me. No one finds anything wrong with that? :/

Well anyway, actual topic. Have you ever been offered to befriend someone through one of Facebook's side banner advertisements? Surely it would be more beneficial to them to just give you an advertisement and just because one of my friends is friends with that person, it doesn't automatically mean that I, too, know and like that person.

At least it's better than an advertisement for ninja-ing.
Become a Ninja Today
Try the Official Naruto Shippuden App! Learn Jutsus, do missions, watch episodes, and fight to save your village!
...
...What!?!??!

Speaking of Naruto, ...why? ._.

That's the eternally confounding question. It would actually be a decent waste of time if the storyline was accelerated by 500%. Yes, that's right. 500%. That means that each fight would take less than three or four (or five >_>) episodes.

Seriously! If you didn't miss with your attack and your opponent is lying flat on the ground then finish off your opponent before explaining how you knocked him down! It's common sense. :T
Super Special Awesome Jutsu! *win*
You won! Congratula-
And now, I will explain how my awesome Jutsu won the battle. For an entire episode.
*five hours later*
...and so, my blue ball of fury descended on your dog to turn your freaky eye thing against you, regardless of how your hair ensnared me.
Have you ever noticed that the opponent always gets back up after the explanation, except now, he can proficiently dodge that super special awesome Jutsu? :/

Oh well. I guess that's how anime survives.

Filler and longevity. >_>

To Be Eccentric

Pssh. Conformist.

Just because Mr. Richards is giving everyone props, it doesn't necessarily mean that you have to do any of the following:
-leave him hanging out of love
-leave him hanging out of asininity (no, seriously; that's a real word!)
-give it to him out of pity
-give it to him for brownie points (suck up >_>)

There's always another option: use your hand to cover his hand! "Paper beats rock." ;D

It's kind of difficult though because his hand is pretty big. :T

Well anyway, all I remember is that some comedian did it and I laughed out loud, kind of like what I did when I saw this.

Most. Epic. Anything. Ever.

Friday, September 18, 2009

It's Alive!

And it's growing! Everyone, run!

"What is growing?" you ask? Well that's simple: infomercials. Especially that Paperoni crap. What is that, anyway? Let's use simple mathematics to solve that, shall we?
Paper + Pepperoni - Pepper = Paperoni
Yay/Yum/Umm... Huh.

Anyway, what I meant by "growing" was that infomercials start off rather short when they first appear... and then they grow longer. They just add some new "practical" application for the crappy product! It's like the marketing division of their rinky-dink company was just sitting there, shitting into a toilet, when he said, "Eureka!"

See, the shite he shat gave him a shitty idea for some random product made by some random-ass gobshite. >_>

Contrary to popular belief, two negatives, in this case, do not cancel each other out:
crappy product x crappy idea = good idea for product?
It just equals (idea)(product), which is really the merchandise equivalent of a parade where no one's watching; it's just traffic. :/

If anything...
2 crappy product + 2 crappy idea
= 2crappy(idea+product); for the world
Haha. Get it? As in, "too crappy idea and product for the world." Hah! Genius! ...I'll shut up now. :/

Yummy Mancakes?

Speaking of mooncakes, I went to this Chinese supermarket on Labour Day. I would've wanted to go buy groceries somewhere else but hey, it was Labour Day; only the Chinese places were open.

So there I was, in a parking lot full of Asians. I personally find it a little offensive when people use Asians as the butt of bad driving jokes but holy crap! All that becomes true when they're fighting for parking spaces to buy stuff on sale. Ah crap; I just called Asians cheap, didn't I?

So anyway, I was driving but it was so dangerous that my mom ended up taking over the wheel. It was a miracle that our shiny car returned unscathed. :/

But before going home, we went inside and it was loaded with people. Normally, it's just lightly specked with Asians here and there but that day, it was packed with people of all races (except white people for some reason :T).

Then I saw it. On sale were... Monncakes. o_O

Want some mancakes on sale? ._.

Random-Ass Chinese Advertisements

Haha. Silly Asians. Your commercials make no sense!

I'd go search for a YouTube video or something for you guys but to be honest... I can't type Chinese. ._.'

So... You know what that means!

STORY TIME!
Yay flying airplanes! It's not RC or anything but I like running around with it to simulate flying(...?)! ...Oh noes! It got on the roof somehow! ;_;
Don't worry, little boy! Pedobe-err... Daddy's here! Now I'll somehow ninja-teleport-jutsu your model plane down here and ninja-fu-create-jutsu my own airplane model so I can play with you! Yes. Daddy will play with you.
Yay! Pretending to have RC planes!
*magical frame skip; OH SH- THE KID'S LIKE 30 NOW!*
Yes. I am a man now. I also somehow became a pilot because my dad showed me that he could fly his airplane into my runway any day. And now, I'll just promote these mooncakes! Yeah! ...Mooncakes!
So... Yeah. It somehow ended up being a commercial for mooncakes. What. The f***. o_O

Well, it's still better than those other commercials. They're freakin' slideshows!
*broccoli*
*pork ribs*
*mushrooms*
*Chinese map* o_O
Groceries... Yeah!

... :/

The Awesome Asians

Most of you know where I work by now.

It's an optometrist's office and I meet a lot of people there. See, that's a good thing and a terribly, terribly bad thing. You would think that I'd meet new and interesting people every week but sadly, that is not the reality.

Some of the people that go there have as much personality as a stick. Oh wait; you can, at the very least, play with a stick.

Regardless, that's enough bashing for one day. As the title indicates, this entry is about the good little patients.

I still remember this one guy; I can safely say that he's the most memorable patient (in a good way) that I've ever met.

STORY TIME!

So there I was, just sitting there. Bored. Then, this one guy came in. He was my age. Huzzah! "That would make the process faster," I thought. That wasn't true though, as he was a squinter. Naturally, I asked him if he could open his eyes just a little wider.

He replied, "I'm Asian."

And that is why awesome people need to get their eyes checked more often. :D

My First Textbook

Yep. I just got my first textbook. Today. September 15, 2009.

I made it through four official days of high school as a senior without receiving a single textbook! Of course, even with my heavy-ass accounting textbook, I can still laugh at all you AP science nerds. I can especially laugh at you AP bio-nerds with your huge-ass textbooks! :3

Of course, if you have an AP biology textbook and an accounting textbook then I can laugh at you further!

Ahh... Life is wonderful.

A Random Thank You

Come to think of it, I actually don't know of too many of my readers. o_O

Well anyway, as per Selena's request, here's a random list thanking people for reading at one point or another. :D

In alphabetical order by first name, thank you to Allen, Ben, Brian, Brian, Bryan, Gurjant, Kent, Selena, Simon, Steven, Trang, and Wilson. :D

Those are the only people who have explicitly told me that they've read it before, if memory serves. :/

Thanks to everyone else, too, whoever you are. Y'all hopefully know who you are. :D

Yes, I do realise that this entry was not very interesting. Deal with it. >:/

The Epitome of Hot Guys... Sort Of

I'm, of course, talking about Disney's Michael Seater. Yep.

All of his Disney characters are always the object of every high school girl's desire. Anyone else notice that?

Well... I only know of two shows he's been on... but two's a lot. :T

Let's see... There's Life with Derek, of course. He plays the most popular cute guy that everyone has a crush on. Huzzah. Speaking of Life with Derek, has anyone else noticed that the writing and acting in that show is terrible? It's like there's a deus-ex-machina-shooting machina there or something. :/

And the only other appearance of his that I've actually seen was on Naturally, Sadie, where he played Cole, the guy who somehow stole Sadie's heart in an instant.

My source (guess who >_>) says that he isn't very cute. I, however, make no comment because I'd rather not comment on a guy's cuteness. I'll agree that his acting's a little shallow though. :3

And So, Sylvester Starves

Aww. Sylvester never catches Tweety. It's kind of sad. I'm surprised he's not emaciated by now.

I know, I know. It's nice that the surprisingly cunning and cute Tweety Bird escapes a violent death and all but surely Sylvester would starve without food. He never catches anything. :T

Speaking of The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show, isn't it just a little messed up? They're teaching children that cats eat birds and mice. That's good and all but did they really also have to teach that dogs eat cats? Now that's just awkward in real life.

I actually believed that for a while. Then Braceface came along. Their dogs didn't do crap to the cats. :/

What an interesting cartoon that was. Of course, it's not as interesting as THE TELETUBBIES! Oddly enough, I've never actually watched a single episode of that. I've seen commercials but I found them a little too pedophilic so I avoided them. o_o

Lol Wtf Unicorns

So we're just doing some free writing and suddenly, I experience the magical sensation that is when Selena is high.

Yep. I can definitely say that it was thought-provoking. Mhmm. Definitely.

On to story time! So she apparently really wants to find the meaning of life. To do that, she has the help of her trusting stead: a magical, flying, half-bred unicorn.

...What?

Well anyway, she will ride it until she finds the meaning of life... or something like that. Of course, for that story to be true, we have to invent the magical flying half-bred unicorn first, so what I'm thinking is that we should use the same property that is used to produce mules, except we have to make them fertile.

First, we'll need a pink horse and a rhino. They, we force them to breed. Somehow.

Then, with our newly (de)formed horned horse, or "rhi-se" or "hor-no" (my personal favourite name for it ;D), we must find a bird or other flying creature.

I suggested getting a chicken but she wants it to fly. Well sorry for worrying about taste. D:

For some odd reason, she likes dinosaurs so we'll have to find a pterodactyl. Of course, we can only find remains of dinosaurs. It's not like it's Dinosaur King. Pssh. Dinosaurs.

So then, we'd have to somehow reanimate the pterodactyl. Then, since I honestly do not have the patience to wait, we'll have to breed our horno with our new pterodactyl. Then, if all laws of biology are broken, we'll have our... demented horned horse with bat wings. o_O

Yaaaaaaaaaaaay~

HAPPY 50TH POST, TVoS!

Yay me! :D

I've kept you entertained thus far so I must be awesome. ;D

So, yes. I'd like to thank all my readers! Sadly, I can still list you all... But at least it takes more than two hands! <3

OH WELL! Life goes on.

It wouldn't hurt to comment, you know. <_<

Don't Eat Japanese Strawberry Ice Cream

Does anyone actually remember what Digimon digipoop looked like? It was just a pink swirl.

While at this one cosy little Japanese buffet, I couldn't help but be reminded of what Agumon left in their car when he couldn't hold it in. A little pink swirl... Just like Jimmy's ice cream. :T

Basement Dwellers with Money

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Video responses. They're like the bane of YouTube... Second to AMVs and anime slideshows. ._.'

It's bad enough that we have retards like Fred running rampant. >:o

They're just the product of un-e-famous people with money for a camera. :/
They're so bothersome, too. I mean, actually e-famous people need their video responses to link us to their other awesome videos!

And the requirements! Holy crap! You'd need to almost try to be e-famous to make a video response.

First of all, you'd have to have no life whatsoever to make one.
Secondly, you'd need someone with even less life than you to view it.
See, at least with a written comment, there's a slight chance that someone will read your comment and care enough to make an intelligible response. Key word: "slight."

Of course, there's a greater chance of you viewing this than a YouTube video response.

I'm too interesting to put down. ;D

Lies! All Lies!

Admit it. YTV commercials are terrible. They're not funny and they tell you nothing about what the show's about. This violates the advertising contract, which states that exposing the general public to advertising should give them something in return, such as a good deal or a good laugh at the very least.

Now that I think about it, that contract was proposed like thirty years ago and no one seems to adhere to it. T_T

Ugh! Bad writing in commercials is contagious like stupidity. <_<

Even the Family channel commercials are starting to get stupid. They were only a minor nuisance before but if I ever meet the voice-over guy that did the Zoey 101 or Life with Derek commercials, heads will roll.

Taking Back the Sky

I'm sick of those stupid birds thinking they own the sky, letting their poop fall where it may. Perhaps it's time for us land-walkers to have our revenge against the birds!

Birds are nice and all but as I was walking one fateful sunny afternoon, they attacked me... with a barrage of flying shit! It was a massacre...

Nothing landed on me though. :D

On a side note, as I was walking past the small field surrounding a bridge with a train overhead, I heard an awkward silence. Yep; that's right: crickets. It wasn't just one little leg-rub though. It sounded like they were having rampant cricket sex and I was all like, "Holy crap! Did that train dump a load of Viagra out of a car or something?" :T

Well anyway, we're human; we're smart. We don't need our modern guns to take down such a tiny adversary; we can just use blunderbusses full of shit. Let's see how they like getting shat on!

Or, even better: we can take out large flocks of them using shit catapults. It's not like we'll ever run out of shit. ;D

Of course, we'll all have to sleep with one eye open because the birds can strike back at any time. I mean, they've already gone to biological warfare with their H5N1 bird flu.

They haven't even played their final trump yet. Let's just pray that they don't resort to using their most powerful and dangerous weap-OH SHIT IT'S HARVEY BIRDMAN!

If Life Gave You Lemons

Make lame-onade! Of course, you should really try to figure out how those lemons appeared first.

On a less serious note, I have a data question for you all. Don't worry; you don't need to have taken data to understand.

How many three-worded sentences can you create with the words "this," "is," "lame," "gay," and "retarded?"

Hm? Oh, right. Restrictions. The first word must be "this" and the second word must be "is." No repetition of words is allowed.

So... What's the answer? "Three," you say? Wrong. ;D

Trick question; there is no sentence. At least, there isn't a politically correct one. Yes, all of these words can be used in a derogatory way but these are really just normal words.

They mean "out of touch with fads and trends," "happy," and "delayed," respectively. The other meanings are (or at least should be) obsolete.

Regardless, this is annoying. Why can't people just decide what's acceptable and what's offensive right now and stop changing their minds with their politically correct euphemisms?

For example, "actors." But wait! The women were sad. Oh no! D:

Dictionary + "actresses" = huzzah!

Then they complained about how sexist it was. Here's an idea: shut up.

So we apparently can't say that things are gay, retarded, or lame anymore. What now?
"This sucks balls!" Oh, the women are offended.
"This sucks!" Still offended.
"This is dumb!" Oh, the stupid people are offended. Oops. I used "stupid." Oh, the dumb people are offended. Oh bother. :T

Story Time Pt. 2

Haha. This one's near and dear to my heart. Well, not really, but it's hilarious! (It's not written by me.)

Survival Story
.....I raised my hand in disgust as the math problem flashing before me confused me. She approached, the earth rumbled; she walked towards me, the earth crumbled.
.....She questioned why I have summoned her. As her voice screeched across the world like nails on the chalkboard, birds fell from the sky foreshadowing the Hell I was about to face.
.....Hell seemed to have been brought on upon me with a tremendous force. I moved aside to exhibit the screen, where in front of her laid a math problem even she was dumbfounded by; so dumbfounded that the beast inched closer for a better look.
.....That's when the gates to Hell swung open and out of it was something indescribable in size and disgust. Before I can even whimper, the breast of this beast had settled--no--it had slept and rested on my shoulder with a tremendous force. I felt my collar bone pop and my neck crack.
.....For I have reason to believe I was dead. But no; the merciless creature shook and the breast engaged into a snuggling feast of horror... Oh the horror...
........................................-Survivor of '05-'06

Most of you should know which teacher this is referring to by now. Happy reading!

Story Time Pt. 1

Do you wish to partake in the wonderful studies of the writer's craft?

Well, it's too late to take it (or is it?) but you can always have my writing to read.

It's especially nice because we blogger authors retain our intellectual property rights. ;D

Well anyway... Our first writing exercise:
The Worst Day of School
.....On a day that was otherwise an ordinary day, all hell broke loose. Our school was invaded by vampire...-loving fangirls. It was raining crimson adoration as Twilight Moon had just been released. All of them were shrieking over how cute or hot Edward Cullen was--it was deafening, so I ran.
.....At least, I tried to run, but the infected were everywhere! However, I wasn't ready to give up just yet, but then I saw it: my own best friend was infected and so, I gave up and conformed. I felt my soul fading away.
.....The darkness engulfed all, and it sucked.
Mr. Thomas didn't like the ending too much since Twilight had prevailed and had brainwashed the general population but hey; he's the one who gave us the title to go with and if the powers of coolness had won over the bogosity that is Twilight then... That'd be the best day of school.

Heck, I'd even consider it the best day of the world, second only to the day those Americans got that shiny new president. ;D

Am I Getting Paid For This?

...And right after I posted that one, it gave me an advertisement for containers.
Containers, Jars, Bottles

www.ContainerAndPackaging.com
...Yeah...

So, I mentioned a bottle... and it gave me a bottle advertisement? Just because I mention the word "bottle," it doesn't mean I have a total bottle fetish.

This is nearly as bad as those YouTube sheep that actually make videos and add every imaginable tag to their crappy video. Yes, it'll barely come up in anyone's search because YouTube lists search results by view-count, but if someone decides to use YouTube as Google for some reason, the random "videographer" might get one view.

Holy crap! One view! And all it cost was two minutes of that random viewer's time! ...And my pride and self respect! ...And my social life! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

Like a Soap Opera

I'm sorry but... I just don't have time for this anymore.
But I can change!
It's not me; it's you. You've changed.
Please don't go! Don't leave me!
I'm sorry, but I have to.
lolwut?

Oddly enough, I'm actually talking about cutting my ties to the music department. Since when did we have to actually tell a teacher that we no longer wish to partake in their time-consuming course?

Just because I no longer wish to take your course, it doesn't mean I hate you, though I kind of (or rather, really) hate how you always (key word: always) keep us from dismissal for an extra fifteen minutes. At 8:30 at night.

I also hate how a good 15% of our final mark for two courses was based on something that was either time-consuming (weekly, at that <_<) and boring, or costly and boring.

I miss the good old days... Toot a horn and you get a C. Toot it well and you get a B. Actually pay attention while you're at it and you get an A. Huzzah!

A Freaking Bottle

15 on 1? That's not very nice. :/
...looking for fifteen youths believed to be armed with machetes, bats, golf clubs, and bottles.
Well anyway, yes, machetes, bats, golf clubs, and bottles are dangerous when used as weapons but should you really end a list of dangerous weapons with "bottles?" (@1:00) I mean, come on! They have three other makeshift weapons to end off their list with and they choose bottles as the big bad list-ender. That's so... disparaging. ;_;

Failure at Lockers

Oh, golly gee! Physics home form! Now I'll have a locker close to physics! On the north end of the school!

Hm? What's that? My locker's in the tech hall? On the south end!?!??! Blasphemer!
True story, actually. That was me last year... except minus the excitement for physics.

There are plenty of lockers around every classroom. Why must they fail so much at distributing them? T_T

I mean, seriously! There are plenty of random-ass lockers right outside the AP math classroom and they randomly decided, "Hey! Let's screw them over by sticking their official lockers in a random place down the hall that isn't close to anything. At all. Whatsoever." <_<

Did I mention they also suck and smell like cat pee? Oh wait; that was the nasty door that no one liked opening back in grade 10. Surely our tax dollars can pay for a good scrubbing of the door. :/

Stupid Advertisements

Astrology Secret Revealed
You're One Jump Away From Changing Your Life Forever...
www.QuantumJumping.com
It's true! Jump off a bridge and your life will definitely be changed. :)

Ahh... I love the stupid advertisements. Some are just too easy.

For example, duct tape bandages. Pro. Or, better yet, "flesh-colored" band-aids. Hey, Sheneequa! Need a bandage?

I just thought that I should share this awesome site full of terribly racist advertisements because frankly, it's hilarious. :D

You've gotta love them there 'mericans! ...Well, Europeans, technically... REGARDLESS!

Err...

I didn't mean to actually stab him in the face! D:

Okay, I'll admit it: it depends on who we're talking about. ;)

Fred, you say? Oh... Go right on ahead. <3

But seriously. I never thought Timothy Eaton was that bad. Do they hate those who associate with Asians that much? D:

At least we can still outnumber and surround them. Mwahahahaha. >:)

GTFO of my Locker!

No, seriously. Where the hell are our tax dollars going?

Let's see... No air conditioning or fans, no lockers were painted, they're actually enforcing the assigned-lockers crap (meaning they're running out), there aren't any new sets of lockers, and frankly, the old ones weren't fixed.

The floors were shiny though. Shiny shiny. @_@

...WAIT WHAT!?!??! They spent out tax dollars waxing the floor!?!??!

Well, at least it's better than spending it on waxing the stage in the auditorium. It makes all the nicks and scratches more apparent and frankly, it nauseates all the repertoire kids.

Well, now that I'm out of the music program, it might as well. :D

So, yes. They spent our parents' hard earned tax dollars on their centennial cleaning of the floors. Key word: centennial.

Anyway, why exactly do the little freshmen and sophomores get first pick at the lockers again? We're the seniors (and juniors, I guess)! We're more important! Our textbooks are actually heavy. <_<

Oh well. It's not like the puny little freshmen all brought their locks anyway. Let's just take theirs while they're not looking. ;D

The Exodus of Fun

NoteIt's the most wonderful time of the ye-*stab*
So yeah. It's that time again! Huzzah. We get to see all of our friends again! Yaaaaaay! And, as an added bonus, we're the seniors! That's right. We're the top dogs; the head honchos of high school. Mhmm.

Then again, we're getting hundreds more new students compared to the number of students leaving. Huzzah for overpopulation. Where are our tax dollars going again?

What I fear most is what will happen regarding locker distribution. How the heck can 1,800+ students use ~1,600 lockers?

Simple solution: the little ankle-biting underclassmen can share lockers. Either that or I'll teach the pre-apprenticeship program.
Okay, class. Lesson #1: Building Lockers
Yep. Foolproof. Unless, of course, their reputation for stupidity precedes them.

What's So Great About It Again?

The great Gotham City. Beautiful, isn't it?

...

...

Not really.

So why does everyone go after Gotham. It's not even that great. Surely the Joker or... that penguin guy or... that Hulk rip-off can find some other city to terrorize. You know, like Washington, D.C., Ottawa, Toronto, New York, London, Paris, Alaska...?

Does every city in that world have tons of bad guys or something? It's not like there are millions of rich billionaires who want to give the seemingly retarded and inefficient local police force a hand.

Speaking of rich billionaires, since Bruce Wayne's so rich, you'd think he just buy and island and move there. Of course, the island would have to come with a bat cave to satisfy his bat-ophilic needs.

...Has anyone ever actually seen a bat do something productive? They just stand there, watching. o_o

Oh well. As long as they make him happy. Yep. A little boy freshly orphaned turned that frown upside-down after getting a hard-on from a rat with wings. It's the American dream.

Albus John Billy-Joe Jameson Ray etc. etc. Dumbledore

Hm? That's not his name? Well it might as well be! Apparently, his full name is Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, and yet he chose to go with Dumbledore or Albus!? Surely it'd be more normal to be called Brian or even Percival.

Well, anyway, you all know what they say about people with three first names, right? So, what do you say about someone with 4 or possibly 5?

It's kind of odd compared to his brother.

Aberforth. Dumbledore. ._.

How short. I'd say "plain" as well but if I named my future kid that, he and/or she would be ridiculed. Of course, if it was a he and she then I guess there'd be more to ridicule.

Haha. Oddly enough, this actually reminds me of a funny little story. No, not the he/she part. Sick weirdos. <_<

Well anyway, it's a myth of super-chinky origin. So apparently, Chinese people used to like giving their first-born son a long-ass colossal name. They were like the Godzilla of names, except unlike Godzilla, they were born with much longer... umm... what were we talking about? ;)

So... umm... yeah. So, yes. These long-ass names were ginormous enough to rival those of brown people! Yeah, crazy; I know. Imagine having a son named Lam Lee Lai Chung Chang Chen Chan Zhang Chan Chan Wong Chan Zhou Sung Chan. Chan. How many coins would you need to come up with that?

Well anyway... Man, my A.D.D. is getting stronger. :T

On with the story! So apparently the Godzilla-named kid fell down a well so his younger brother went to go get help. Naturally, he went to find his parents. He told them that his older brother fell down the well! Ohnoes~! Of course, he's Chinese so he couldn't just say "older brother" but when he was telling his parents who fell down the well, he got his brother's overcompensating name wrong so he got scolded for disrespecting his older brother.

Then Lam Lee, etc. drowned in the well and his parents were sad. D,:

Therefore, the moral of the story is that if you live near a well, you should name your children appropriately. Ping Pang Pong's a nice name. Is so simpo. :)

Or you could just name your child Soy Sauce. :D

The Rapture Will Cost You

So apparently, God's pissed and he shows it by making the American economy suck:
2008: God's Last Warning
The downfall of the US has begun with economic collapse being first
www.the-end.com
Self-centred, much? :T

If anything, the Asians can be blamed for economic collapse. No, I'm not the next Hitler (let's see... I'm Asian myself, check; economy sucks, check; easy scapegoat to target, check!).

Think about it! The economy will only recover if people start spending again. Asians dislike spending money. If they didn't, I'd be totally pimped out with video games right now and would lack the time to even consider writing this... Curse you, wretched Asian stinginess! (T_T)

Wondering why my bag of ideas is having diarrhea (or logorrhea :o)? Well, the anser to that is simple: That advertisement was on the Your blog post published successfully! page right after I published Wigging Out Again. :D

Wigging Out Again

Wow. It turns out that the Institute for Human Continuity thing was just a scam to get more people to possibly be interested in their movie, 2012. I thought it was just a bunch of nut jobs. :T

But honestly, did they really expect anyone to believe this?
The Mayan calendar predicts it, and modern science confirms that in the year 2012, an unprecedented solar occurrence will have a devastating impact on our planet. But for the past decade, we here at the Institute for Human Continuity have been preparing for the inevitable, and have even created a lottery to give everyone an equal opportunity for survival. Visit us at TheIHC.com to ensure the end is just the beginning.
This sounds familiar though I can't quite put my finger on what it's similar to...

That'd be creepy. :/

Of course, any true believer would believe it. Having a Twitter page with contests kind of pines away at its credibility though.

If anyone's curious, the title of this entry refers to this little marketing scheme (Bridezilla, in case the link doesn't work) to make "wigging out" a popular term "again" so some company can use it in their slogan and be SOOPAH KEWL!

I don't think it worked. o_O

The End is Near!

Ohnoes! 12/21/2012 is coming! The world will come to an end as predicted by the Mayans!

Haha. I'm just yankin' ya.

Nothing bad will happen. It's just like the Y2K, a scam to get you to buy electronics, or global warming, a scam to get you to buy stronger air conditioning.

My old-ass calculator from before the year 2000 still works... relatively well. And it hasn't strangled me yet! Though I might strangle it soon. Stupid math. >_>

It also turns out that the people who believe these things are nut jobs. Apparently, the "rise of the machines" has a 10/10 "possibility this century" rating.

Of course, if you think about it, there have been some pretty bad omens recently...

Let's see... There were tsunamis not long ago. Wildfires are breaking out everywhere. Bush was president! OH NO! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!

Oh wait; those believers of the 2012 are still nut jobs.

For example, take a look at this nut job:
Survive 2012 is a non-fiction book I am working on. Progress is currently slow as need to work hard in the corporate world to build the necessary funds for a bunker or two. My thoughts & plans are constantly evolving in line with my continual research. Survive 2012 is also the name of this website which is an online version of the completed chapters, some half-finished chapters and some other bits and pieces.

Future chapters will look into:

  • Global Grids
  • Evolution
  • Unicorns
  • Space Threats
  • Mysterious Elders
  • Carbon Dating
  • Myths
  • Doomsday Scenarios
  • How and where to survive
Yeah. Crazy. I know.

So therefore, in a little over two years, we'll need to fear aliens and one-horned ponies. OoooooOOOOooooh scary.

Of course, you never know what might happen...
Oh, you have made me very angry, very angry indeed! BLAAAAAAAARGH!
O_O

Innocence, Please!

That's right! I've decided to become charitable! Surely that would balance out all the... umm... "negativity" I have.

0:D

Well, anyway, I'd hate to e-ask for some e-money from all... umm... ten, possibly twelve, of you (;_;) so I decided to try out these Blogger Gadgets! Specifically, SocialVibe (<<<). Of course, I wouldn't put up something that totally clashes with my background unless it actually works so I tried it out first. Apparently, you rate a video, and then minutes of schooling get donated to Invisible Children...?

Okay, not too sure how it works exactly but I think it's real so I urge all of you to try it! Of course, when I tried it, it told me that Body Glove will donate to the charity. Then, it proceeded to showing me a girl in a bikini for one and a half minutes. Regardless, I urge you all to donate your innocence to the cause! :D

If you feel atingle in a certain area, don't blame (or thank o_O) me for it! :T

Feeling Atingle

That's what you get when you get a little too close to the creepy 40+ year old man with a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig truck with a spacious behind, to which you get an invitation!

But in (nearly) all seriousness, I love the uncommon words! This one's a little... weird...
atingle - (adj.) Experiencing a prickling sensation, as from excitement; being in a state of tingling.
So essentially, it means the exact same thing as "a tingle." So... why, exactly, is it a word again?

Verbosity in action!

Happy September 1st...?

Huzzah! It's September 1st!

...I'm starting to have mixed feelings about this. I mean, sure, it's nice to see everyone again but I didn't get to level 120 yet with my bishop and I didn't even get to solo a Jr. Balrog yet! *F3*

Okay, but seriously, I don't play MapleStory... Well... I don't. :T

I'm not even sure which emote F3 did. ._.

...STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT!

Well, anyway... moving on... I sure do hope no one's too bummed about summer ending. It is nice to have this nice windy weather though. ...Wait, what? It's still sunny and hot? Are you sure about that? I guess that's climate change in action for you. Yes; climate change.

Since they don't think the Earth will actually get hotter due to pollution, etc., they decided to call it climate change instead. Of course, that's like me telling you that "the world will definitely change due to Bush's reign" instead of "the world's coming to an end."
