As we all may know, THR Raaga is a revolutionized Tamil radio broadcast aimed at youngsters and those modern-minded individuals. Their all-time rival, Minnal.FM, used to be the sole Tamil radio broadcast those days until THR Raaga came into action and plunged Minnal.FM down the list. Ever since then, Minnal.FM has been labeled as ‘obsolete’ and they are no longer reckoned to be a ‘hit’ amongst the Malaysian Indians nowadays, as THR Raaga proved to be otherwise. It’s like comparing the Hallmark Channel with HBO; both serve the same purpose but one happens to be old-fashioned while the other is filled with fun. No offense in this.

A few weeks ago, THR Raaga introduced a new contest, in which the radio deejays would be calling some people randomly and the person who answered the call would have to say a sentence in order to win some cash. That sounds easy isn’t it? All the participants got to do is to send a text message to THR Raaga stating their name and IC number and if they are lucky enough, the next day they might be getting a call from the deejays.

As mentioned in Newton’s 3rd law, every actions would have its own reaction. The folks at Malaysia Hindu Sangam couldn’t help themselves but to come up with a press release by condemning THR Raaga regarding their latest contest. For more info, refer to the letter below.

1) First and foremost, the sentence that the participants got to say when getting a call from THR Raaga is:

THR Raaga – Semma Hot-te, Semma Hit-te

If the folks at Malaysia Hindu Sangam managed to do some homework before coming up with a ‘press release’, they would have known that the sentence reads as “THR Raaga – Semma Hot-te, Semma Hit-te” and NOT “THR Raaga – Semma Hot-te, Semma Heat-te” as they wrote. If they wanted the sentence to be spelled in pure Tamil, the correct pronunciation would have been (rough guess):

UPDATE (7th March 2010): Swamy Nithyanandha’s Public Statement regarding the scandal

I am not sure how many of you are aware of the current ongoing scandal involving the infamous Swamy Nithyananda with a purported Tamil film actress. A video has recently surfaced showing our swamy lying on the bed, having a good time watching the television with a lady by his side, a lady who they claim is none other than actress Ranjitha! I won’t be elaborating on what the video is all about so please come up with your own imagination by going through the screenshots above. (It’s awfully disgusting watching a saint doing all those yo-yo acts)

Everyone seems to be confirming that the ‘swamy’ in that video is indeed, the swamy himself but no word of confirmation regarding the actress lady yet. Regardless of who she is, both of them are now in hot soup as the video had been broadcasted in Sun News (India) and currently spreading rapidly all over the world.

So as you all may know, we have successfully executed our charity event on 22nd February 2010. Before I proceed any further, let me express my gratitude to all the donators who had donated more than enough to fund this charity, along with our readers and supporters for being a part of the backbone in organising this charity, directly and indirectly.

It was a bright day when brother Suren of Eyezmachi.com and myself drove all the way to the Banting road (via KESAS) and waited for brother Durai of RagedIndian.com, brother Sashi and brother Kannan at the side of the road. While driving, I thought to myself on how the hell I am going to face all the students and teachers at that school as I was having a flu on that day and my eyes were swollen due to being allergic to some fucked-up pills, thus being forced to wear a cooling glass. “Ah, mairachi..”. At least that gave me some confidence.

The journey was quite long in order to reach that school as we have to go through the estate road as seen in the following picture. By the time we arrived there, our cars were soaked in sand, dust and rock.

The moment we reached there, we quickly ask the teacher whether do the students want to have their ‘breakfirst’ first or should we segregate all the books and hand over to them. Instead of an answer, it was the teacher who asked us back the same question. Anyway, she suggested that it would be better to prepare the breakfast as the break time is nearing. Without hesitating, we prepared their breakfast, served the kids with a pack of meehoon and of course, a piece of chicken (KFC) for each of the kids. “Nandri anne” (Thanks brother) would be the common word that we could hear from those kids when we are serving them, something that we don’t get to hear all the time.

While waiting for the charity event post (and pictures) to be fully drafted, finalised and completed, let me post this for the time being. Enjoy the pictures guys!

It’s been a long long time since I blogged something related to Friendster and I don’t think I would be doing that any longer. Those were the days when Friendster used to be a hit in our country but not anymore. The evolution of Facebook had plunged Friendster down the list and I don’t think any of my friends cares about it for now, even myself.

Talking about Facebook, I got attracted to it due to the following reasons:
- The status update
- The photo commenting option
- The simplicity
- The seriousness
- And not forgetting the non-existence of bandwidth-hogging features

While there are many things that could get myself attached to Facebook for hours, here are some of the things that annoys me:

1) Annoying “Status Update”
Every morning, when I open up my Facebook, I expect to see some nice photos of some chicks being tagged, some random albums and even some nice and funny status updates. But no matter what, there would always be some status updates that annoy me to the max, let alone if it floods your homepage. Here is an example of “a” status update: (The following is a real case)

An Indian girl (Let’s call her Nisha):

Nisha Guys, what do you think about my picture? Do I look fat? ^=^

Nisha @some-asshole suggested that I should put the current picture! Thanks to him because I love it too!! Huggsss to you da! muax muax

So, by the time I opened my Facebook, there would be like 4 status updates by the same person flooding my homepage. To best describe my feelings in a picture, click on the following spoiler. A picture speaks a thousand words.
