An Insight into Stupidity? Or Ignorance?


Religiously, I cannot endorse homosexuality.  However, the recent flurry of posts regarding a supposed guideline endorsed by the Ministry of Education offends me as to how shallow & simple minded they are when it comes to identifying homosexuals.  Their list pretty much includes majority of Malaysia. -,-

Each category only has four items or guidelines.  Yes, there are only four things.  Who knew homosexuals were so easily identifiable, eh?

Just to quote & comment. Quoted is in red italic while comment is not. :)

Symptoms for gays


  1. Have a muscular body and like to show their body by wearing v-necks and sleeveless shirts.  This applies to pretty much our ENTIRE athletic contingent.  Is the government implying they are gay?  Also, straight men do it to attract girls because let's face it, a well toned body is a big ego booster for men, and an attraction for women.
  2. Prefer tight, and light colored clothes.  I tend to wear a white shirt and khakis to casual events where looking smart and respectable is important.  And I do appreciate well fitting clothes.  Holy shit I must be gay. -_____-  So men are suddenly only allowed to wear baggy, dark clothes.
  3. Like to bring big handbags, similar to those used by women, when hanging out.  Call me ignorant but I have NEVER seen a man with a big handbag before.  Manbags?  Sure.  But never a big handbag.
  4. Attracted to men.


Symptoms of lesbians:
  1. Besides their female companions, will distance themselves from other women.  Huh.  You would think lesbians would be attracted to other women...
  2. Like to hang out, have meals and sleep in the company of women.  So... women have to risk being labelled 'easy' to avoid being labelled 'homosexual'.  Well that's just conveniently chauvinistic, isn't it?
  3. Have no affection for men.
  4. Attracted to women.  Items number 3 & 4 on this list can be summed with one image;

All in all, not at all impressed with all the wasted effort put in by all those responsible.  Boy that's an awful lot of "all's".

I honestly doubt that the Ministry of Education would endorse a list this shallow and this stupid but then again, I'm an optimist so I may be wrong.

Sneakers & Sandals

As the title suggests, this has something to do with footwear. It's difficult to find footwear that will last at least 3 years in terms of not falling apart. Most will fall apart after 3 months. My current sneakers held up for about a year+ thankfully. But now it's falling apart so I need a new one. No more Nike for me. But I'm still not getting Adidas. Yes, I'm a Nike person for life. But I'm not buying any Nike from Malaysia. Minimal quality control -- if there is any to start with. I'm considering either Puma, Fila or Skechers for my next sneakers. I'm hoping it won't fall apart either. Those Fila sneaks aren't that bad. Neither are the Skechers. I'm torn between going for the tennis shoe-style sneakers or for the hardy hiking boots... If I go for the hiking boots, I'll look for Colombia or something. Hm... I think it's time I had somewhat of a makeover. Tennis shoe-styled sneakers it is. As for the sandals, that's

Dreaming of Edward Cullen, Girls?

Why must you girls dream and idolize Edward Cullen to such an extent? There are some guys who have given up hope on finding a girl 'cause you gals keep comparing us with him. Others have actually started to wish they were Edward Cullen. You girls are going to cause some guys to commit suicide if you keep it up. What is it that makes Eddie so desirable? Is it his quotes? The way Stephanie Meyer describes him? I don't see you talking about the plot. This leads me to assume that the only reason you girls buy the books are for Edward. How is the plot? OK? The best? Or is it Edward that is the best? I believe it is the last one. Is Edward THAT dreamy? I fear sooner or later some poor soul will commit suicide because his girl demanded him to be exactly like Edward (not me. My girl hasn't read Twilight -- I think) but being merely human, not fictional, he couldn't. PLEASE! Enlighten me!

Hari Raya Eid il Adha

Somehow everyone else seems to have managed to publish pre-Raya posts. I wasn't. Yet I didn't do anything. Go figure. I went back to Banting (dad's side) today. It was raining since last night. I hate it when that happens. They make the day either gloomy and cold or blistering hot. In this case it was the former. Not to mention wet. And it rained the whole day! But everyone probably noticed so there's no use in exaggerating it. Back to Eid il Adha, my family wanted to go perform the Raya prayers at Masjid Putrajaya as we expected it to be at least emptier than in BJ. Previous years we missed it because the mosque in BJ was always overflowing. But this year, the cars were parked all the way down the Boulevard. It was crazy. People usually leave AFTER the khutbah (sermon) so when we saw people leaving, we naturally thought we missed altogether. Especially since listening to the khutbah is one of the rukun for the Raya prayers. Then we realized that people were skipping th
