We already have those hip-hoppers and rappers in our community. And now, there are a few new additions to follow up! Say hello to Emo and Gothic, baby! Basically, the former two are usually attached to guys, not malayalee guys, not telugu guys, but INDIAN GUYS! Whilst the latter two somehow managed to attract those Indian girls, and nobody knew how that somehow made its debut!

I was talking to an Indian girl whom I’ve known for quite some time in MSN Messenger and she kept on changing her display picture, which made me to ask her one question:
 

Makkez: Why your posing in all your pictures are one kind?
Girl: coz me an emo
Makkez: ….huh?
Girl: emo lar… dat one also you dunno arh?
Makkez: Ohh… yea, I know….

 
I’ve heard of this ‘emo’ thing but never really paid any serious attention to it. The moment that girl told to me about her ‘emo-istic’ character, I rapidly hopped into one of the online urban dictionary site, and this is what I found:
 

Definition of Emo:

Genre of softcore punk music that integrates unenthusiastic melodramatic 14 year olds who don’t smile, high pitched overwrought lyrics and inaudible guitar rifts with tight wool sweaters, tighter jeans, itchy scarfs (even in the summer), ripped chucks with favorite bands signature, black square rimmed glasses, and ebony greasy unwashed hair that is required to cover at least 3/5 of the face at an angle.

 
The bolded sentence signifies the exactness of what I have seen in that girl’s picture(s). I wonder, how the hell did this kind of culture managed to sneak in into some our Indian girls’ mind and once again, HOW THE HELL did they got attracted to it? Another thing that some of you might not aware about Emo is CUTTING! Yup, cutting their wrist, cutting their palm, you name it!

These kind of girls would usually express themselves in their way of dressing, appearance and the music they would listen to. They are usually shy, sensitive and often depressive. Allright, let us take an example of a love failure. A typical Indian guy who recently went through a miserable love failure would end up drinking in the Kedai Ah Pek nearby while this Indian ‘emo’ girl would take a sharp blade, cut her wrist slightly for the sake of adhering to the rules of ‘emo’ and the very following day, she would start googling for tons and tons of “love hurts”, “love sucks”, “guys suck” pictures and so forth to be uploaded into her social networking profile. Although this ‘wrist/hand cutting activity’ may not be carried out in a large number, but the influential power of ‘emo’ would force them to do so sooner or later!

Certain international sites are loading slow as usual whilst local sites seems to be okay for the moment, or maybe I should do a more thorough check on some of the major local sites to verify my previous ad-lib.

Gmail.com? Oklar. Youtube.com? Kinda slow. Imageshack.ws? Slow like hell! Or maybe I should put the blame on their servers? Downloads? No comment!

If I were to call those Streamyx customer service, I won’t be surprised if they ask me to follow their same and lame Kindergarten methods, ranging from disconnecting the modem from CPU, connecting it back, resetting the modem and lastly, flushing my DNS! Ini nenek saya pun tahu lar!

Or maybe I might be getting a response such as this (Enjoy the video!):

SHUT UP U!

THIS POST IS INTENDED TO MALAYALEES ONLY!!

For god’s sake, I would NEVER EVER aim my post to any particular ethnics, like what some jerks would do. Allright, let’s cut the crap. First and foremost, I would be dedicating this post to those Mista WhatEva in Friendster who would love to waste hours of his precious time going around in Friendster looking for some hot chicks and asking for their phone numbers as well as to priyacute going around in Indiaglitz and Behindwoods looking for some Trisha’s and Asin’s photos to be uploaded into their Friendster profile. Ohh, and not forgetting some “ethnicist” who loves to crap around with their ethnocentrically-inclined views and ideologies. Other interested newbies are welcomed!

When it comes to internet, many people would be attracted to the beauty of social-networking, blogging, warez, hacking, online games and “etc etc”. But, the moment one individual ventured into money making business, and I meant serious money making, he/she would never ever let his/her interest from fading away and hence, expansion of their empire would be taking place! Why can’t our kids do the same instead of wasting their time on some crappy-online stuffs?

You see, I am not going to touch on Forex investment or those kind of services but I would be focusing on two particular options, which I found to be very very useful. Before I proceed further, I am not proclaiming myself to be a professional in this ‘money-making’ field. I am just sharing my experience to all of you, as what people would say, sharing is caring!

Are you a Tamilan? Are you a Malayalee? Are you a Telugu?

Whenever I came across any Indian asking me these kind of questions, I would really love to answer it in a ‘decent’ way: Would it make any f*cking difference If I happened to be in any of these categories? But, for the sake of ‘being polite’, I would just go like: “Yea, I am a Tamilan. So what?”. SO WHAT? Just because I’m a Tamilan and you are a Malayalee/Telugu, are you going to show off your middle finger at me and go away?

Now, what made me to bring up this ‘inter-racial’ issue anyway? Well, continue reading!

Yesterday, this blog received some incoming hits from a link which seems to be a Friendster’s bulletin board post. So, obviously I would click on it to see where it is heading to and who would have posted it. But, to my disappointment, it didn’t showed anything! Well, of course it won’t as the ’someone’ who posted that bulletin is NOT in my friends list (Only those bulletins posted by the people in our ‘friends’ list are viewable). Therefore, I have to ‘force’ myself to view that bulletin by any means and surprisingly, I succeeded! And as for the content of the bulletin, well, have a look at the screenshot image below:

Those links that he has posted are broken. Therefore, whenever someone clicked any of those links, they would be redirected to a built-in 404 error page and I have no idea to which blog post he had linked them initially. I believe it would be those few Tamil conversation posts and some of my recent articles.

Sorry guys but I could not recall his full name! The above would be one of the best mimicry I have ever seen, besides those of Michael Augustine, Kovai Guna and Western Pattabi from the same programme (Asatha Povathu Yaaru). These guys rock!
 
Feel free to watch this one as well (Vijay and Cochin Haniffa damn good!):

If you want me to say it in our common language, it goes like this: BERLAGAK!

I was walking down the streets nearby my university with a bunch of junk foods in my hand, and as usual, I was observing around on how the other homosapiens are interacting with each other. Hey, that doesn’t mean I’m stalking at them!

All of a sudden, there was a very loud sound known to be emanating from a car’s terribly-tweaked exhaust pipe. At the same time, I had a strong instinct saying that it would CERTAINLY be a bunch of Indian guys roaming the streets with their Perodua Kancil. Guess what? I was correct! Most of the Indian mandes who could not afford to purchase an expensive car would end up buying either Perodua Kancil or Perodua Kelisa and in addition to that, only the god knows how the hell they managed to fork out a lot money to ‘build-up’ their car!

All right, It’s your car and you have the rights to modify it according to your needs. I am not denying that. But, the moment those dudes passed by the road at the side of my university, they slowed down a little. The reason? One idiot at the co-driver seat started to switch the CD to a ‘better song’ and increased the volume to the extent that the bass sucks like hell! Another two idiots at the passenger seat lowered down the car’s window at both sides and started jerking their heads outside and staring at the others with their RM10 so-called cooling glasses and dancing to the tune of the music that is being played. All the above incident happened in a split of second I would say, or to be precise, not more than 30 seconds lar!

What song was played?

Why? Why? Why?

After watching Dasavatharam a few days back, I approached some of my known-individuals (friends!) to get their feedback on the movie Dasavatharam and to my despair, there were some people who claimed that the movie was “hmmm….OKlar”! Oklar? Come on dude, it was awesome!

So, why would one say so? Because Rajinikanth didn’t acted with his punch dialogues? Or maybe because Vijay didn’t acted with his same and lame “Naa nadentha whatever, naa okantha whatever, naa kuminja whatever” shit quote?

Some said the storyline was kinda ‘dragging’. Some said the movie was kinda ’slow’ - which means the same thing as ‘dragging’ previously. Some even said that the movie was kinda confusing! Let us exclude the latter part and concentrate on the former part. Dragging? Slow? I would say that a tiny portion of you people are none other than those typical-minded Indians in which the only thing that you all would LOVE and IS-A-MUST to have in a Tamil movie would be:

• A dance scene in the forest.
• A poor hero falling in love with a rich girl.
• A scene whereby either the heroin’s mama or her father himself would be chasing the hero with a parang.
• A death scene accompanied with a fight and some few arguments.
• Dan sebagainya.

I could recall a few years back when the movie Aalavanthan made its debut and so many mixed reviews were thrown out pertaining to it. I approached a few of my cousins and asked their feedbacks at that time:
 

Makkez: How was the Aalavanthan movie? You liked it?
Cousin Girl 1: Not nice lar… Got cartoon scene all… Like stupid only..

 

Makkez: How was the Aalavanthan movie? You liked it?
Cousin Girl 2: Padoma athu!

I was watching a Tamil ‘god’ movie that day, not those old old movies in “Deiva Ulagam” but some of the recent Tamil god movies and I don’t know why but SOME of the god movies that I have encountered would have these somewhat ’similarities’ in them.

1) Storyline
First comes our hero. He would be a bad guy and would have a bad intention in doing some shit against his devotee wife or his family members. Then, the devotee wife would somehow knew about her husband’s bad intention and would seek the god’s help. Somehow again, the husband would knew about his wife’s mission and he would do his part by seeking a devil priest. Then in the end, both the devil priest and the god would be fighting and obviously, the god would win. The husband would start crying, hug his wife and he would admit that he has repented. And they lived happily ever after.

2) Hero
Is it only me or anyone else have noticed that both RAMKI and KARAN have been going on a loop for the role of “Hero” for certain Tamil god movies?

3) Child god
Usually some gods would tend to incarnate themselves in the form of a young and bubbly child and would start roaming the planet earth once they have arrived. The best part is, MOST of them would love to laugh for no reason! They would go like HA.HA.HA.HA…..*talks something*….HA.HA.HA.HA.HA…..HA.HA.HA.HA.HA. Why is the need of that laughter when a serious situation is going on, my dear child god? In addition to the echoed voice! I do understand that the previous-mentioned characteristic(s) is very useful especially to expose the “child god” to the public without showing him/her as a god directly but this situation has became a protocol for most of the said child gods; “Talk, laugh, talk, laugh”. Come on, I bet there should be many other ways to represent a child god! It’s getting annoying lar!

4) Final god’s appearance
You call a god peacefully, he won’t appear. You sing in the temple, cry, run here and there, roll on the floor with some blood on your forehead and finally, you shout loudly in the end of the song and you ended up being faint. Then only the god would appear. WHY?

Emails. No one can deny this. Gone are the days when emails were used to greet someone, to get-to-know someone and even keeping in touch with someone, and that someone could be anyone! Today, though some of these things are still happening, but at the same ongoing pace, our teenagers are blindfolded on what is the bloody meaning of HOAX and STUPID FORWARDED MESSAGES! HOAX - which means whatever information you happened to receive, it is actually a bullshit! “MSN is closing down so forward this”, “Microsoft is paying money for forwarding this message”, “The biggest human skeleton”, “Dead mermaid found in Manila / Chennai / Brazil” and etc. You name it!

Once our kids received these kind of messages, they would be so excited / worried depending on the message that they have received and irregardless of the accuracy of the message, their next step would be to FORWARD IT! You see, I’m not blaming those kids for forwarding emails but for god’s sake, please think for a moment on what shit you are forwarding and GOOGLE IT YOU NOOB! For instance, if you received an email of a “dead mermaid found in bla bla bla”, try googling for “dead mermaid found hoax” and have a look at those search results. Furthermore, if you received an email of “Microsoft is paying money for forwarding this email”, then go ahead and try googling for “microsoft is paying money email hoax“. Do you think those fellas at Microsoft have no other better work to do rather than paying some bunch of idiots for forwarding the same lame email? Once again, the search results would tell you everything!

I’m not asking you to Google for whatever forwarded emails that you have received but if you are deciding to forward them and happened to use your brain a little to see whether the information of the forwarded email is correct or otherwise, then GOOGLE IT! A tip: Try adding the word “hoax” at the back in your keyword searches. The results would tell you whether the email is actually a ‘hoax’ or a pure information (which I highly doubt of it).
