RECHARGE.

Wow! So many words. So many creatively linked words. Yet so many words that say nothing.

Just gimmicks to lure the young and trendy, hip and hop, and dont forget dumbasses with money.

Worse is that somehow they have gotten my handphone number and had been sending me messages about their stupid event. Bloody damn fools!

Daylight Robbery

I was thinking about the CNY that has passed.
And suddenly the memory came back to me.
That I was robbed on the 2nd day of CNY!!!

A whole gang of relatives were about to leave after the CNY visitings, so all were congregating by the door waiting for their turn to put on their shoes and leave.
Spotting me, my aunt, sister of my mother, came to me with a receipt book, asking for donation.
Oh crap! I've noticed her earlier and was hoping that she'll spare my pitiful soul and wallet.
Her timing was great, as I was surrounded by people.
No escape for me now.

Me: Hah? Donation ah? For what?

Robber: This donation is to help build temple. (She has helped build many many temples, considering the amount of times she has asked for donations)

Me: I'm not a believer wor. Still need to donate meh?

Robber: Can still donate what. It is good to help the temple.

MFs: Ya ya. It is a good thing. Good karma.

Me: Sigh.... okay......

Robber: Resistance is futile.


*MFs = Mindless Followers

I've often wondered what would happen if I take a verbal stand against their religious belief.
But as often as I am tempted, I always shelfed the urges to it.
Mom and dad did a good job on the respect-your-elders rules, even if only superficially.

How to make a good cup of Nescafe

I use Nescafe Arabica, because it is strong, and cheap.

Now remember NOT to use a tea cup (you know, those that the English use to drink tea with their pinkies up), but use a mug instead.

1. Pour some hot water into the mug (I don't know why, but I've been doing it for quite some time). It will heat up the mug a little.
2. Put in two tea-spoons of Nescafe Arabica.
3. Then put in four tea-spoons of Coffee-mate.
4. Sugar up to taste, between half a tea-spoon to two tea-spoons of sugar (Its half a tea spoon for me).
5. Fill up the rest with hot water. Or if you don't like your drinks too hot, mix with regular drinking water (duh!).
6. Finish you coffee before it cools down!

The Boss likes the fancier and more expensive Nescafe, Nescafe Alta Rica. If you use that, and still like your coffee strong, I would suggest 3 tea-spoonful of Nescafe instead of 2.

This is how GUB² drinks his coffee, taught by a Nescafe promoter.
He will die earlier because of it, but he is happy.

If you want to try something fancy, make a cold cup of Nescafe with reduced creamer and sugar, then add vanila ice-cream into it. Its nice. My own recipe ;)

Feng Shui

As I walked into the house, I heard a squeaky voice from the TV. I know that voice, its the voice of Lillian Too.

Lillian Too is, without a doubt a very successful person.
An excerpt from her site;

"After graduating with an MBA from the Harvard Business School in the USA, Lillian embarked on a corporate career and became the first woman in Malaysia to head a public listed company. In 1982 she became the first woman in Asia to be appointed CEO of a Bank. Her achievements in the competitive commercial world of Hong Kong and Malaysia have been much applauded.
After her years as a banker, Lillian Too worked with Dickson Poon as Executive Deputy Chairman of his group of companies, helping him build his vehicle, Dickson Concepts. Lillian then went on to package the leveraged buyout of the DRAGON SEED group. With the powerful First Pacific Group of Indonesia and Prudential Asia as her partners, she took control of this department store group, became its Executive Chairman, turned it around and cashed out.Then she retired to become a full time mother and a writer.
Today, Lillian Too is the world s number ONE selling writer on Feng Shui."

Allright!
Enough on the facts about Feng Shui Mistress Lillian Too. This is Gub²'s blog, not Lillian the Too's Blog.

Feng Shui, according to me, is just a simple manipulation of the human greed.
It is nice to believe that if you move your furnitures from here to there, and there to here, you can become rich.

But how many practioners has become rich?
None of the people that I know of has become rich.
My stupid sister is not rich.

But Lillian the Too is rich. She is already rich from her earlier years, and now is getting richer with Feng Shui. Her Feng Shui is not about manipulating "chi" energy or whatever fucking energy of nature, her Feng Shui is about manipulating greedy shits to buy her books and stupid Feng Shui ornaments from her shops.

Therefore;
Lillian Too sucks!
Lillian Too sucks the money out of you!
And then there are little bugs crawling in her shadow sucking money out of you too.

I am disgusted with the greediness of human nature.
Bleargh.......

Oh yeah,

Did she dyed her hair according to Feng Shui readings, or is she just getting horny at 50?
Hahahaha... No more Lillian Too, here comes Ah-Lian Too
HAHAHAHAHA!

Married Friends

have a purpose, that is to give ang pow to you!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am now RM10 richer thanks to that.

Gong Xi Gong Xi!

A Sigh of Relief at the End of St. Valentine's Day

I got a gift for the Boss.
No dinner, no flowers, but.......
She is happy. I am happy.
We are happy.
Therefore I am happy once again. :)

None of the disaster like I usually encounter on all these "occasions" (ie. birthday, anniversary...).
I can still remember her reaction when I forgot about her B-day last year.
The memory still haunts me and send me shivering at the corner in fear.

English Speaking Contest by China Chinese

Waking up from my sleep, I brushed my teeth and sat down to watch the TV that was already switched on.
For some reason incomprehensible to me, one of my mom's favourite channel is Astro's CCTV9 (channel 36), which was showing this English Speaking contest thing.
Huang Mei, a pretty girl from some university in China was on and was answering some question.
What she said was something like this;

Can you imagine a world without Yao Ming? The NBA is nothing without Yao Ming. Blah blah blah....

She kept on saying "can you imagine..." Bah what a fucking stupid girl.
No doubt she is proud of China, but to think that Yao Ming made NBA, and not the other way around.... what a dumb fucking bitch.

A man's sleep

When Man invented TV, God intended it for little children to watch cartoons in the morning.
So that those little bastards don't go running and screaming around waking up a man from his honest sleep!!!!
Bloody damn fools!
Parents out there, please keep your children in your house glued to the TV, instead of unleasing them into the neighbourhood.

2nd CNY Post

This time, I'll put in a picture that I've made myself.
It is some sort of a Chinese New Year greeting card.

Happy Chinese New Year

I can remember the time when I looked forward towards Chinese New Year.
That was so long ago. Nowadays, I dread the coming of it.

I was told by my mom that dad has already planned the visitings for tomorrow.
How I wish I can escape that.......
Being as old as I am now, I wonder why should I still follow them around.
I'll be thinking hard tonight on how to slither my way out of this.

I supposed this is not how a CNY post should be about.
It should be happy and merry and whatever fuckadee-dee!
So I shall note down in this post something funny I saw earlier on the CNY Eve dinner.

With my dad being the eldest son, my mom dutifully prepares a some sort of reunion dinner since my grandmother passed away years ago.
On the dinner, there aren't many guest, as we don't have a huge family. It'll be us; dad, mom, sis, me and my dad's two other unmarried siblings; an aunt and an uncle.
These "historical data" are not important at all to the funny that I am about to tell.
They are just to say that we have guests on the reunion dinner.

Now to the funny story (which is actually shorter than the prelude).
I saw my mom manipulate my good-for-nothing sis into work just now; simply by asking my sis in front of the guests.
My sis, being a fucking pretentious shit that she is, cannot refuse my mom and had to be bossed around. Har har.

Funny, no?


extra notes; as I am typing this entry, I heard the voice that I hate, the voice of Roach. That is my sis's evil bf. He is Roach because of his out of date hairstyle, which of course resembles a cockroach.
