I'm irritated

I'm irritated...
It hasn't rain proper for weeks!
That, coupled with the heat... IS IRRITATING THE HELL OUT OF ME!
Now i'm irritated by anything/everything that goes around me.
The things that irritate me (for now) :
The car dealers that list car prices as P.O.A (Price on Application)
Hey, com'on!
I need to look at the price before i apply to buy for the car right?!?
I know you don't wanna scare people away with the stratospheric price of the car, but still, couldn't you just put the price up so that i/potential buyers could decide if that car's worth it??? I had to scour around in magazines just to get the rough price the car would be selling for in Singapore.
LOUSY!!!
Friendster
It obviously sucks!
I upload a pic into friendster; after uploading, the pic refuses to show
I choose a pic as the primary pic, it disappears instead.
WTF!
Pleeaaassseee! I know there're gazillons of people who've signed up for friendster.
Couldn't the people behind friendster upgrade the servers???
And the pop-ups that keep appearing.
Utterly irritating!!!
And the neglected accounts.
PLEASE DELETE THEM! They're clogging up bandwidth!
MSN
The ding* ding* ding* ding* ding* ding* ding* i hear everytime is making me go crazy!
Wah Caoz!
Irritating can!?!?
Extreme case i see so far, my friend logging in and out and in and out and in and out becos of a connection problem...
Argh!!!
Internet Connection
This is absolutely disgusting! 56K for my internet connection! OMG! 56K... 56K leh! Can you believe it??? The 'fast' speed is killing me!!!
I wanna play online game; cannot.
I wanna watch video streaming; cannot.
I wanna download animes to watch; cannot.
I wanna do anything that requires high speed; LAGI CANNOT!
PUI!
Spiders
The spiders/daddy-long-legs are having a field of a time building webs around my place!
HEY! I know the flies in Australia alot. But there's no need to build webs IN my room right??? As if the flies would come in.
PUI!
GET OUT!
Before i declare 'War on spiderism' and exterminate all of you!
Cockroaches
They're bloody irritants!
Scurrying here and there.
Luckily my war on them has already commenced for sometime. They're almost extinct in my room. Whoever moves into my room next time oughta thank me for the service i've done.
Wahaha!!!
Flies
They're the real sons of bitches now.
They buzz around you
They land on your face
They crawl on your face
Even after sweeping them away, they keep coming back for more
Bloody fuckers!
DIE!

I am Stupid

Sometimes i really wonder about my intelligence.
Case in point: Yesterday Afternoon.
I was cooking my lunch when i saw this baby cockroach scurrying on the wall.
First thing that comes to my mind is KILL.
So i took out the my newly bought Mortein Surface Spray. It's a damn powerful insecticide i tell ya. Casualty rate is 100% for the cockroaches so far.
Stupidity No. 1: I could have used tissues to kill the baby cockroach. It's size was a tenth of the 1 cent coin. It was an overkill. lol
Bringing out the can of insecticide, i prepare for the kill..
Being the 'smart' fella i am, i removed my pot of noodles and shifted it somewhere 'further'.
After spraying the baby cockroach and watching it squirm to its death before disposing of it, i replaced my pot of noodles on the stove and resumed cooking. (It takes 5 secs to kill a cockroach, that's how powerful it is.)
Stupidity No. 2: My pot of noodles was just less than 1 m from where i sprayed the cockroach! And I didn't wait for the insecticide to settle down before resuming cooking!
After cooking my noodles, i had initial apprehensions about eating it, as i finally recalled i had placed the pot of noodles quite near where i had used the insecticide. However, being the ever bochap guy i am, i decided to eat the noodles and get it over and done with.
Stupidity No. 3: I should have just thrown away everything and cooked all over again.
Needless to say, after eating the noodles, i felt 'queer' for the entire day as the neuro-toxins wreaked havock in me.
Pui! I'll never act so stupidly again!

PS: The cockroaches are there not because my room is dirty, it's because i'm staying in a 25 year old apartment! I think they had stayed there for many generations. lol.

Racial Riots in Down Under

Haha..
I think i'm quite late in posting this up. lol
The riots started on Sunday and it's only now that i've blogged about it.
So loser.. haha
Hmm, it's not that happening, the way i see it. It's only a small percentage of people causing damages about recklessly. However, i think the way the situation was handled really sucked. There were indications that something like this is gonna happen somehow, someway.
But only warnings were given for people to stay away. And an increment of police troops. That's all.
There was no control over the media to tone down their way of reporting news. The news was sensationalized to the point it touched a raw nerve with the people and KABOOM! everything gets blown away.
Sunday's event: 5000 plus people + a few thousand bottles of alcohol = potential disaster.
It's kinda a monkey see, monkey do situation that day. One person starts bashing another up, the rest follows. A real no brainer situation.
A civilised country being portrayed?
Blah!
Machiam sheeps that follow blindly if you ask me. Or a bunch of drunkards for that matter.
Now they're regretting what they have done. Newspapers printed out apologies from the surfers for causing the incident. But i think it's too late. The lebanese and middle-easterns were so incensed by the stupid actions that they retaliated. The only way to stop them now is to let it die off. Haha. Serves them right for not thinking before acting. Now everything is out of hand. Hope they have insurance cover for their properties.. lol
Although some lebanese/midldle-easterns were at fault for causing this uproar in the first place; sometimes taking matters into your own hands would only invoke more troubles. The best way to handle it is to leave it to the authorities.
As John Howard says, Australia's a Western as well as an Asian country. But when you start paying attention to the Western and neglect the Asian, it's like a time bomb waiting to explode. Hope everybody realises that Australia's a cauldron of different races and stop being so insensitive. (I shan't call them racist)
ps: one of the riots took place near my place! At Maroubra! But shitty o'me was sleeping so soundly that i din even notice anything at all. lol
pss: This coming Sunday is another date to look out for. If nothing happens on Sunday, normalcy has been restored!
pss: i have lebanese friends also. hmm.. dunno if they're affected..

Dragon's World


Hmm
Has anyone watched this documentary film titled 'Dragon's World'?
IMO, it's very a interesting documentary film.
Created by people from 'Walking with Dinosaurs', this docu-film explores the possibilities of dragons existing since the time of dinosaurs.
The way this film goes about presenting the dragons is quite good. Instead of the normal documentaries that we see on how animals lived etc, the story is being told con-currently with the discovery of a dragon's corpse, and a flash-back to how these dragons might have lived.
What i think made me appreciate this docu-film was the fact that they try to make everything about the dragons pausible. From dragons attaining flight despite their large mass; to the breathing out of fire, the producers have done a very good job in explaining how a dragon was able achieve these. In fact, you'll almost believe everything about them was for real. I was 95% convinced dragons had existed, no joke. That's how believable 'Dragon's World' is.
(The 5% comes from the common fact that dragons did not exist at all. Big booboo...)
Well, if you have time on your hand, i'll recommend you to watch it. If you don't have time, MAKE TIME FOR IT!
It is that good, i tell ya.
Of course if you're those not interested in these types of docu-films, there's no point in telling you to watch it because everything would be nonsensical. lol

My definition of hot weather

I would normally classify weather into 3 categories.
First would be hot.
Followed by very hot.
Lastly is fucking hot.
But to my surprise, today's weather beat all of my categorisation.
Today's weather a killer man.
I shall categorise it as: NE NA BEI CHEE BYE FUCKING HOT!
Stepping out of my room, i thought i had stepped into a furnance.
POW! The heat just punches you in the face.
Damn...
Now i know how Iceman feels if he were to go to the Sahara Desert.
Now what i can do now is pray hard the weather doesn't become too drastic. If not i'll have a nuclear meltdown. lol
NEW: I just discovered it was 39 degrees. Go figure how hot that is.

War on cockroachism

Let today be the day that humanity declare their war on cockroachism!
For too many a times, we've let them scurry about, allowing them to come up with devious plans to upset humanity.
This must be stopped!
I've received confidential reports that they carry weapons of mass destructions (WMDs). This, coupled with the psychological effect they have on humans, must be stopped at once!
We will not and cannot allow cockroaches to threaten us with these WMDs.
They must be eliminated to saveguard the interests of the human race!
As such, I ask for everyone to give me their fullest support as I carry out the war on cockroachism.
As I am speaking, Operation Kill Cockroach is commencing.
We have already deployed several baits in the area where the suspected cockroaches live. Cans of insecticide are on the standby, awaiting my orders when these cockroaches appear. Hopefully, we would be able to triumph over cockroachism within the few days. Heavy fighting will definitely occur and casualties are expected; but i hope it is only a few tissues that are lost for the good of us all.
God Bless us all.
We will prevail!
