Roffle. The joys of being Satan.

And God populated the earth with broccoli and cauliflower and spinach, green and yellow vegetables of all kinds, so man and woman would live long and healthy lives. And Satan created McDonalds. And McDonalds brought forth the 99-cent double-cheeseburger. And Satan said to man, “You want fries with that?” And man said, “Super size them.” And man gained pounds.
(more…)

I think (a long time ago) people liked Orkut because it’s so much faster than the laggy lag lag Friendster.

Now Orkut is so bloody slow and Friendster is pretty fast. Weird. I think it’s because Orkut is getting massively populated by… Brazillians (I get so irritated when my message box is filled to the max with mass messages in a language I can’t read)? So the invite thing really doesn’t work anymore since there was no limits on the invites.

I’ll throw a tantrum if Gmail is ever slow.

No, I’m not going to join MySpace. These e-networking thingamabobs are way too scary.

Brother #3: Fireworks display!
Me: In the toilet?
Brother #3: Yeah.

Note: There are only two windows in my home that faces the outside world. One is located in my parents’ bedroom. The other is in - you got it - the toilet.

Malaysia is 47 years old. Yayayayayay.

Time to sleep in tomorrow. XD Such is the good thing about public holidays.

Aww. :( Supposed to be going out for ice cream, and then plans changed cause I was already snacking on the peanut-butter-thingy (that, and I’m kinda stuffed from dinner, and ice cream = dairy product). :(

Ice cweam!

me: Robbed a gap?!
juan: yes.. i took clothes and give them pieces of paper with weird numbers printed on
juan: and they let me escape
juan: foolish people :D

Roffle. I don’t know how to answer to that one…

Yum… peanut butter. <3

I’m addicted. XD

I. Must. Keep. My. Hands. Off. Snacks.

Maybe starting tomorrow. Today… I indulge. Mwahahahaha.

Okay. I’m done (finally!). I hope there are no kinks to work through, and I shall keep this until I get sick of it. :) No images at all. If it looks too weird (keep in mind that it is supposed to look a little weird), it’s probably your font size settings.

I haven’t checked it on IE or Opera, so I hope nothing goes wrong there… *crosses fingers*

Edited to add: Yes, the blockquotes are supposed to jut out to give it a weird, “random” feel. It’s not the neatest, but I grew to like how it looks so obnoxiously… obnoxious. ;)

Edit #2: IE doesn’t like it. :( Opera does, however. Why does IE has to be such a pain?

Cute!

Teehee. Looks like its worshipping something, almost.

*sigh* I hate it when I’m interrupted in the middle of something. :(

Was working on a layout. I don’t really like it - it’s messy and… well, ugly. It has no images as of now, which is usually a bad thing because I don’t know how to design without the use of images. And it needs so much cleaning codewise. But I’m desperate. :(

:( :( :(

Dad: You didn’t sleep?
Me: I did!
Dad: Bullshit.
Me: But I did!
Dad: You wouldn’t be up this early if you had slept.

Why did he bother to ask me then, if he had already made up his mind that I didn’t sleep? :/

And I did sleep. Even if it was only for one hour.

Oh oh, I haven’t had the change to blog about this yet even though everyone else probably have. Because of this, I got WhatPulse installed and running and keeping track of my typing/clicking, and joined The Protagonists team. XD

My stats:
whatpulse

That’s my key/click count starting from… oh, August 23rd, I think. I seem to click more than the average person (and I’m blaming it on Minesweeper), and type a lot less than I thought.

My top used keys are:

  1. Space
  2. E
  3. T
  4. O
  5. Right shift

It seems like almost everyone’s top 5 used keys are made of Space/E/T/O though, with a random key as the 5th key (not 5th in position, but 5th as in… you know, the one that is not one of the four mentioned). I’m surprised Left ctrl/S is not part of my most used keys considering how much I Ctrl+S due to my paranoia of losing my work. XD

Hehehe. Silly things amuses me so much.

I’m going to turn orange soon from all the carrots I’m consuming.

I know, I know, I need a layout for this thing. Maybe I should refrain from blogging until I get a layout up, or else I won’t be motivated to design at all. *sigh* It’s not launched yet for precisely that reason. I’m only blogging because I felt soooo deprived when yumenonaka.nu went down.

Not that I blogged that much when I was there… I can’t seem to blog much when it’s a group blog, even if it’s just made up of two people. Says quite a lot about my avoidant nature.

I’m so uninspired though, and my computer is laggy and threatening to freeze up so I don’t feel like opening up Paint Shop Pro and make it even worse. Boo.

Someone make something for me. :P

Ah, dang Gmail. When I needed invites to give away, they don’t give me any. Now that I no longer needed them, they just issued me 6. -_-

Just like life, no?

Heh, am tempted to get another Gmail just for the heck of it, but do I really need 2GB worth of email space? Seems kind of pointless. I’m still irked that I can’t have pei@, especially since I use that for all other emails and forwarders I’ve ever gotten. :( But at least I get a relatively spam-free email, so I guess that’s good too…

Someone asked me why not peivern@, I have to admit that I don’t really like putting the name “peivern” in an email because it’s hard to get people to spell it right, especially if the email is distributed vocally. I spent my whole life correcting people about my name, I’m not about to spend the next 20 years correcting people about my email too.

Three hours ago…

“Kid, can you watch the shop for a bit while I take a shower?” I asked, leaning against the doorjamb.

“Sure, I’ll go down,” Brother #3 answered, but I wasn’t paying attention to his answer anymore. I was staring at the side of his door, the part that gets exposed when the door is opened inwards and I jerked my hand away.

“Ewwww… gross! Did you know that you have a dead cicak on your door?!”

He didn’t. But ew. Ew ew ew. It was all bluish (original colour being pale yellow) with brownish dried blood? at the part of the tail that breaks off as part of the self-defense mechanism and its beady black eyes staring.

Who knows how long it has been dead squashed there between two hard places.

GROSS.

It’s still there, by the way. I would take pictures of it and post it here just for the heck of it, but I don’t really want look at it again and again. >_< When the heck is my brother going to get rid of it?

Translation:
cicak = lizard

I’ve been looking at those crazy ear piercings people do (don’t ask me why, when I’m still so scared of needles and I’ve only got one ear pierced now and too chicken to get my right ear re-pierced), and most of them look so painful and bloody and freaky.

Like this. And this. And this. And this.

This, however, looks so cool. Silver spiral thingy. It’s cute! But… how does she get it out? o.O

I haven’t figured out why people think it’s nice to have a huge hole in their earlobe though. To shove random object through?

Squeak! died a slow, horrible death with random complications (like when the domain name of the host expired), but the end did come swiftly when the hosting was suddenly suspended. Eek.

*moment of silence*

Well, that was it, I guess! Or so I thought. But…

Boo. :) I’m baaaaack!

Guess it’s not that easy to get rid of me after all. Mwahahaha. I’m so addicted to having a place to put my nonsensical thoughts, I figured that I’m going to have to do this sooner or later. It might as well be sooner. ;)

I thought about importing all the old Blogger/GM/b2 entries of the old Toothpaste Addict into WP (to conserve space, if nothing else), but then I realised that I’ve deleted my GM’s CGI files that acts as the database and kept the silly little HTML files, so I dropped my tables again and decided to start from scratch. :P

On the sidenote, Blogger’s new layout seems un-Firefox-friendly. Tsk, tsk, shame on you, Google!
