what if i said, "i fell in love with you when your light was captured by silver halide on nicrocellulose.."

i was doing my usual morning paper-reading-on-the-toilet-seat routine and i read about the guy who forcefully tattooed his girlfriend's boobs and hands.. ok, it wasn't him who actually carried it out, twas his friend, but he did it nonetheless... i'm not saying that what he did was right.. it was totally and absolutely wrong.. it sickens me reading about such stuff something akin to acid defacing done to women in India..

but imagine.. imagine holding your daughter's hand on the way up to your flat... then you see your wife leaving the house with another man... you try to compose yourself when you already know that you can't take shit like that.. maybe there's an exaplanation, maybe there isn't.. so many thoughts racing through your head.. you tell yourself you'd hurt the guy bad, really bad.. but not in front of your child.. but she'd already gone through the ordeal, seeing her mom with another guy, and she'd probably ask, "Pa, who's that?" and you try to come up with an answer.. a friend? a colleague? a family member that you don't know of? or.... just, or... a guy she's seeing behind your back.. your child waiting for an answer, your mind going in a frenzy.. what'd you'd do?? till, that final thought, in a fit of rage... hurt her... its sad, but its what the guy might have been going through.. by law, the "fit-of-rage" argument cannot be seen as pre-planned and carried out, but clearly it was not the option at that point in time..

let me put the rhetorical out.. Adultery is wrong right? sometimes i feel in so many cases like these, the fact that one party is involved in adultery, is overshadowed, and only the result of what wrong the other party commits is "wrong".. rather sad that we live in the times like this when the crime makes the headlines and the real story is given a two-line mention..

what's women's rights if some are sluts???

Was reading this forwarded mail about why men are happier people and i liked this few lines.... heh...

1) The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky.
2) You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt.
3) One mood all the time.
4) A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase.

And i happened to read a few days ago's Today, and i read this article bout someone critising those FHM models who pulled off that stunt on radio some time back.. This is what i don't get bout women.. I won't comment if i think those girls should have done what they did, or should they have been asked by those supposedly "shock-jocks" (cause i think being labelled a shock jock is situation-specific, and in Singapore where a mention of "white underwear" on radio is obscene, i guess something like this is "shocking".. and i'm not going into why they should be sacked form radio, cause that issue is sensitive and would lead me going around in circles, and i'm not ready for this to be a "shock blog".. notice how the brackets can be an issue in itself..).

Why do some women want to defend the rights of women in such situations, when some women publicly put themselves across like that?? Fuck, if a guy shows his balls off, or takes his underwear off in two seconds, i think he's fucking queer and won't give a fuck about wanna protecting whatever rights he should have.. i read about how this lady said that the girls should have the courage to say no in such situations and walk away from doing such "cheap" stunts.. But it all boils down to that person i guess.. did she say no and walk away?? no.... sometimes i guess women's rights groups trying to prevent/deem such stuff obscene should just give up.. so long as there are girls like that, the cause is futile.. and it didn't help when my friend told me that one of the girls (didn't mention which one) was caught doing it in the bathroom of some poly...

lost in translation..

haha, i had al laugh myself doing this... yes, its not original, and yes, its from FHM, but wat the heck, it makes me laugh.. tell me if it makes you laugh too.. haha..

ok, so i decided to translate this passage below, which introduces myself, where i work and stuff i do and shit like that.. then, i translated it to german at this site, http://babelfish.altavista.com/.. then i took the translated german passage and translated it back to English to have a good laugh.. enjoy.

My name is Irfan. I work in Police Techonology Department and my appointment is Assistant Manpower Officer. I like playing guitars as a past time and playing soccer is definitely one of my hobbies. As of late, my lunches have been occupied with me playing ping-pong. I'm definitely getting better at it, with cross-court smashes, smashing my opponents. Haha. Recently, I've also found another band to jam with. Trying to rope Rajan in to be the second guitarist, cause I believe i have a telepathic understanding with that guy. Today is Monday, and Monday blues is definitely a true phenomenon, but for now, I'm just looking forward to Monday night soccer with my friends. That's all for now.

haha.. well, everythin that is for now.. bye.. ;)

shortfall of a system which has honourable roots, but one which leads to an emphasis in image, adivertising and popularity..

i cannot help but laugh to myself when i see this site... www.votefortheworst.com oh how it mocks democracy!!! in the face!! initially, american idol, and such shows introduced the novel and seemingly perfect idea of voting the one you feel most deserving of a prize, that is being the winner of the show, be it one million dollars, or world-wide popularity (proven wrong when Daughtry didn't win, addressed later)..

but mix it with producers idea of increased ratings and the popularity of the show, it spells the end of such a "perfect" idea (how ironic, somehow).. just go the webbie, and they'll explain their mission.. i hate double-counting and even worse, double-story-telling/plagiarism (haha..)..

my point in this entry is to say, in all the sarcasm, "what a good system democracy is.." look at where it has brought american idol, short of deleting the word "idol" and cancelling the "n" out of "american", if you get what i mean.. to me, a system works when it is either, self-perpetuating and brings about an equally good or even better outcome, or one which brings about healthy competition which leads to the same self perpetuation mention earlier.. but, when average/below average competitors are allowed to advertise, "buy votes" (though this would be not the case in the american idol fiasco mentioned earlier, not saying it is done elsewhere too.. ;-), and do such stuff which has a hand in the outcome of the system/event, the system crumbles..

so sad, esp when the system was conceptualised to give common folk a sense of power, and how they actually play a part in something they can never be a part of.. with great power comes great responsibility, but perhaps, sometimes, responsibility should only be given to those with power... i guess.. no, i vote... haha.. ;-)
