ow numb butt

Stupid Writer's Guild. This brings me back to the childhood story of the fox who lost its tail in a bear trap and when on to tell the other foxes that it was a trend to lose it. Thanks to the strike, anime translations have slowed down and serials like Heroes have ceased upon a cliffhanger(then again, the end of EVERY episode is a cliffhanger). However, I doubt Singapore's media industry is supporting this. Like many have said, our people only know how to take advantage of setbacks.

Other countries:
"Oh my goodness, a car accident!"
People whip out their phones to dial fer the ambulance.

Singapore:
"Oh my goodness, a car accident!"
People whip out their phones to save the car plate number to buy 4D later on.

Also, it could be that we don't produce enough good quality shows to be considered part of the group.

In other news, a shooting had occured in the state, Colorado, earlier this week. It ended when the security guard managed to put him down. Now, here's the thing, I know that in America, nearly every Tom, Dick, Harry, Peter, Clark, Bruce or Tony would be able to purchase fer a gun at legal age with enough money and qualifications fer handling. But why in the world would the church's security guard be carrying a gun(although it helped prevent more deaths) in the first place? In fact, why do churches need security guards? Or any other religious place of worship? It's not because I'm an atheist but just wondering as a person, if you're already at a place like that where everyone is trying to repent/confess/whatever, you'd at least think that the current states of everyone's minds is at least pure. And don't gimme that:

"Sir, I'm afraid you can park here."
"Oh yeah and why is that, old man?"
"Because I have the gun?"


Anyway, that was just two pennies' worth. The guy's a hero after all, sort of. He said it was because he had God. Wow, I mean, what can you say to that...

"I'm going to kill everybody here because Christians caused the world's problems!"
"Hush. God is here."


Beats the Punisher or Daredevil any day. Apparently, the gunman got pushed so far that he snapped and directed all his negative energies on one specific thing, which is the reason why I stopped being a real asshole after secondary school and rather be the current bud of all jokes instead but that's an entirely irrelevant story altogether. It's like the difference of being morally and politically right. Like
these guys who probably had a valid reason fer what they did and eventually got away with it.

Ahem. TO THE MOVIES! My fave. New Year's is coming and 2008 promises a load of highly anticipated flicks, top 2 being Iron Man and The Dark Knight(releasing superhero films really proves that money fuels their inspiration fer originality but we still buy it anyway =P). Others include Indiana Jones' and Rambo's new installments. You used to think that they were just hardcore and adventurous, now they're just crazy old men. Something that caught my eye was a teaser shown before The Golden Compass(IS THAT ALL?!?!?!), Cloverfield. I know it's like an equation derived from Godzilla, The Blair Witch Project and Lost. Still, tell me you're not intrigued:


Dude, how come we don't have parties like this?

PS: Dinner last night at Dempsey Hill was really, really impressive.
