WTF

In my exam month of January '09, I blogged a total of 8 posts and 3 drafts. During my holidays of two weeks: Zero, nulzéronull, kosong, μηδένゼロнольcero. And 2 half-hearted drafts.

So, I'll write the things I hate because I have a neverending flow of that.

Things that I don't really but get irked so much:

1. Malay holier-than-thou couples. We don't touch each other, why others hold each other like they're giving us live porn shows? Seriously, people, we find your standing so far apart in photos super funny. SUPER. I mean, I'm okay with people who do this per se. Just those who drop the line: tengok couple lain, diorang semua pegang pegang sana sini. Pseudo-religious people. Eww. Reminds me the time when Ujang went all pseudo-religious and shit.

2. People who change their name to western [English/Italian/Spanish etc.] sounding ones. You're not Sherry, you're Sharifah. You're not Rob, you're Rubinathan anak lelaki Muthusamy. I mean, I'm totally okay with people who are born with western names or those whose nickname is given to them by friends/family but those who choose their own nickname burn me up. 

3. Blonde/Red hair on Asians. You're pushing it with brown but going blonde? Not streaks, summore, whole head yellow as hay hair. Yes, people are going to say, "Is this your natural hair color?" Hell, I think I'm gonna start asking people that.

4. In the same vein: People with so-far-from-natural colored contact lenses. Lesser known fact: Malays and Chinese don't get light brown/hazel eyes. Don't get me started with blue.

That's enough of hate-fest.

haha! i remember some kids back in school who insisted that i call them by their western (christian?) names when they masuk sekolah menengah sedangkan kat sekolah rendah dulu aku dok panggil nama chinese mereka aje.

dok tukar nama jd omputih tu satu hal, tp zaman kita adalah zaman parents mmg suka kasi nama anak ala2 mat salleh. what's wrong with plain simple aishah or sarah or amir or rizal?

I don't mind if it's their real Christian names tapi sesetengah orang tuh bagi nama sendiri. Gila tak malu.

Sebab nama omputih sounds cool and banyak orang nak bagi tribute/name their child like their favorite musician/actor. I'm half thinking of naming my son George in honor of George Harrison wtf.

And those name memang lah nothing wrong but imagine if it's Sameon or Jamilah... Macam mana lawa pun maksud nama-nama tuh, they DO sound funny. I mean the standard nickname for those also are Milah and Meon. Memang tak glamer lansung. That's why they become Sam and Milly.

I'm dubbing you my no-reply angel because you appear only on posts where I have no replies, NRA.
