+ The Controversy Rages +
  Joash's guitar vs. my guitar.... THIS HAS GONE ON LONG ENOUGH! I'm SICK N TIRED of Joash's defamatory remarks about my guitar. He has gone as far as naming his guitar B.T.I. ....which translates into Better Than Ian's. If Joash's guitar sounds good, it is because me n joel chose it for him! We had nothing but praise for it when the purchase was made... without Joash's presence. Kinda think about it, thats how we chose his drumset too! HAHAHAHA! I could have instead chosen for you this extremely poserific silver Gibson SG series... which we WERE tryin out by the way,  Even though B.I.T.....er... i mean Joash's guitar, has excellent sound, cool grainy finish and unbeatable price... it'll definitely be judged by the same standards as those used when i bought MY guitar. Either way, the bottom line is: MY guitar is better cos its BLUE! And to all of you who didn't apprecate my song about movies, thank God i didn't choose to express myself through the medium of bellydancing. Cheers! The great debate is over! *raises wine glass*

+ Top 10 Most Overrated Things On Earth +
1. SEX This was a no-brainer. "Sex sells, the Big-O, sexual healing, sex holidays, sex bomb" yeah... you've heard all the jazz. Sex may have shrugged off its taboo status (which is a good thing), but now its glamourised, spiced up, and blasting our senses left, right and centre. New expectations place unnecessary stress on society, and unfortunately the first to break are the youth. In 1993, the teenage abortion rate was 9.5%. (almost 1 in 10) Close to 95% of the women seeking abortions in 1993 did so for social reasons, 3.7% for medical reasons, and 2.0% for failed contraception. "There is something truly odd about the discussion of abortion rights. The discussion is a bit one-sided. All of the participants in the debate are alive, and the interested parties whose lives depend on the outcome of the debate are all dead or about to be killed and therefore absent." -Fathersforlife.org 2. Remorse Action speaks louder than remorse. Lets put it this way, if someone wronged you, we'd rather the person just apologise once, compensate (if need be) and never do it again. As opposed to going thru the whole "please sir, may i suck your cock" routine and then repeats the same mistake next week. Burying the hatchet is just gonna get a whole lot tougher. 3. Feminism (albeit in developed countries) It is a spent force. Around here, there is nothing left to fight for. The number of executives in Singapore is has a roughly equal male-female ratio. But here lies a paradox, in order for mums to get a sizable income, they've gotta snatch women from 3rd world countries away from their families to work here as maids. Women have become powerful enough to oppress other women, look how far we've come. If feminists really wanted a good fight, they should organise armies to topple 3rd world regimes who discriminate against women, like Saudi Arabia or somethin. 4. Manual Cars There is a time and place for everything. And the manual car belongs to the motorcross. Everyone else who wants to get from point A to point B without dying is easier off with automatic. As they say in the army, "If there is a toilet, why shit in the field?" By the way, my driving test is on Nov 14. Wish me luck, hahaha. 5. Golf Golf isn't excercise, stop kidding yourselves. If anythin, it causes backache. It is however, a great place for the rich to hide and plot out new ways to make money together. No poor folk around here, they can't afford the golf clubs. Nevermind we hack down acres of lush forests and replace it with nicely trimmed carpet grass. I can take a little decadence, but golf is pure bullshit. 6. Radio-friendly songs After awhile, they all sound the same. Even worse, they run outta ideas and start to re-package songs from the sixties and seventies. Eg. "Mr Lonely", "Uptown Girl" Piracy won't kill creativity, crowd-pleasing radio stations will do that first. 7. Purebred Dogs Dogs have been selectively bred to such an extent that some no longer make any evolutionary sense. In an effort to make them look "cute", purebred puppies will inherit all the physical weaknesses of their parents. For example, the blood hound's "cute" droopy face actually gives it eye problems later in life. The Sphinx, or hairless cat, has to be indoors all the time or risk death from exposure... this may be the start for defective purebred cats. Then there's the Chihuahua... 'nuff said. 8. Red Meat i mentioned this before. Bugs give more protein, zero fat. And they don't spout methane like pigs n cows. Plus they're hell loads easier to breed, and no mad bug disease. 9. The study of philosophy Basically you study what dead geezers with too much free time had to say. Philosophy is a great way for mankind to think he's very smart. Sometimes the bullshit spewed doesn't even make sense. U spend time finding answers to questions nobody asks. Like "am i a man lookin at my reflection? or a reflection thinking i am a man lookin at a reflection?" For cryin out loud.... The best part is, with a Degree in Philosophy, your best job propect is to become a Philosophy lecturer! Learn bullshit to teach bullshit! Yay! The vicious cycle continues! 10. Cultural symbols As the world globalises, people cling to culture as a form of identity. The strange thing is, culture always changes. Why? Because people change and events change. For example, if no one invented the piano, then western orchestras won't have a piano. Even worse if someone invented it, but no orchestra would accept this new-fangled device. Cultural symbols are today's sacred cows. Language, art, literature, clothing, rituals etc. Its our instant way of showing off "who we are", i prefer to call it self-sterotyping. I've many times been accused of not being "Chinese" enough, due to my appaling use of the language, hahaha. Im fine with that, cos i'd hate to be linked with dudes who are superstitious, burn hell money, think boys are more impt than girls and massacre tigers/rhinos/bears/sharks/pangolins/sea horses (etc) for aphrodisiacs. Identity comes from values, not symbols. Culture is personally accepted, not genetically attained. By the way, don't expect shark fin soup on my wedding dinner entre. Cheers! *raises wine glass* |
