Just got back from a trip to Malacca. It was fun. Had Satay Celup (Lok Lok) and fantastic Nonya food. Going up to Malacca on the triduum weekend made me think about being Catholic.Well I’m culturally Catholic so to speak. A lot of my beliefs and my thought process is governed by my Catholic upbringing. So I tend to see the world in absolute moral terms, where things are …

Youth.sg has a contest and I decided to try out for their grand finals, everyone should just try. It’s easy. The topic is about “social issue/s”. So here’s my take on the topic.—Social issues permeate the blogdom. It does. Every corner you turn and some sort of social issue pops up.

If you thought Hard Gay was bad… This is even worst… What the hell do Japanese TV producers smoke? “Hmmm… My rivals at the other station have this ridiculous guy dressed in S&M gear.

My First Nuffnang Ad is Hitchoo. It’s a really great idea for the really gutless (me included) amongst us. You know the living spineless. Not everyone has a winning pick up technique and there is no “one size fits all” pickup technique. Adding hitchoo to your repository of tools is always a welcome bonus be you a master of the intro or a big fat noob.Talking …

So lately I’ve been having a lot of fast food burgers, and I got to thinking after taking a look at my really flat McDonald’s Double Cheeseburger that the 4 Fast Food Burger joints’ burger can be compared to boobs. So if you’re the easily offended sort of person, shovel along and ignore this post. If you’re like me and like burgers and boobs (in …

Some of you might already guess that I’m a Constructivist by training. In my studies in history and international relations, I have always been a firm believer that most things including tradition and identity are constructed entities.
