Security Check? my ass...

Okay, went to the library to do some maths yesterday night, It was very normal, very usual until i got to the main gate/roundabout, There was a sign saying "Security Check" and 2 guards standing there. At this point, what the damn sign should have read was "Parking Sticker Check" or something like that.

The whole idea of this stunt is that, there are not enough students buying those pathetic parking stickers. Why in the name of all that's holy should we spend more money on a stupid sticker when I do not drive to campus often enough to need it? and why should some of us pay for a sticker that does not garuentee us a parking space? It's always full, and there's plenty of Creative Parkers to make life more difficult trying to manuvure a car in or out a parking space.

I know many people including myself, do not have their own cars, which should not be a problem. The problem starts when some of us have assignments and need to meet up to do it. So I drive there, cause its safer, and more comfortable, and its night time. Melaka is a safe place, but I do not fancy doing a 400-meter sprint if anything happens.

Ok, fine, the sticker is not that expensive they might argue, but I have 2 cars my household has 2 cars, not rich, but cause parents comes in pairs. So i am at liberty to choose which car to drive which is already parked outside the house (makes life easier). But somehow, those 'geniuses' at the top, thinks its a very smart idea to limit the same of those stickers to 1 per student. What in the world are they trying to do? They want us to buy the stickers, but they are limiting the sale of the stickers. I do not drive to campus often nor do I need to drive to campus often, cause I can walk. I am just there to finish up some assignments/project that needed doing.

Considering everything, I don;t drive to campus often, if I do, its only for a few hours, lack of parking space, creative parkers, does not warrant me to buy a damn sticker just so I can park the car in my own porch...

Grand Theft Auto to be banned?

Recently in the papers, some guy from some consumer association from Penang wrote in to say that Malaysia should ban Grand Theft Auto. According to him, GTA encourages violence, people killing people for the fun of it; degrades moral so people who played the game have the urge to have more sex. Apparently, one murder case in Thailand was linked to the game and in the writer's eyes, all should be well if the game is to be banned in this country. Basically is about "BAN THIS FILTH!!!" kind of thing. Its funny when they complain about the game but never played it themselves. Its so annoying when they start preaching about it when they never ever touched the game.

But I am sorry, I played GTA before and I thought it was kinda fun and entertaining. I certainly did not go killing people i do not like. Nor did I not go fuck fornicate around after playing the game. Best part is, I know other people who play the game and its still the same old sane person and definately not mental.

I seriously wonder why video games are taking the heat, of course the TV got hit first but i digress. If video games are to be banned if they contain violence/some sex that would literally mean most of the games out there, heck the only games on the market at that time will be children games... and thats not a rosy future to look forward to.

Other than that, think about it, piracy is already rampant, banning games is not a way to solve that problem either, it is going to drive piracy higher. At that time, whatever that happens, do not blame the consumers for using Bittorrent and RapidShare and some free games website (you get the idea) to download the those banned games. Them (Banners?) are the one to blame.

Since we are talking about banning video games, let's see might as wells ban them cigarettes, they cause health problems, some people who smoke' em have the delusion of coolness, why not ban them too? I am already enjoying playing this banning game. Lets ban the internet, since its addictive and a perfect waste of some peoples time like mine or maybe because it has tonnes of pornography that destroys a person moral, that will save the world from global warming since people have no reason to turn on the PC and oh, it will oh-so-save-people's-moral. Hmm let's see, Might as well ban' em movies since some of the involve violence and sex amongst other vices. I could go on but for your sanity and mine, better not.

No smoking, obviously not incense

This goes to the dimwits who deserve it.

This sign, which is plastered all over any indoor air-conditioned area almost everywhere on earth and some geniuses just can't grasp the meaning of it.

Seriously, what the hell does it look like to you? a tyre? an exhaust pipe with smoke coming out? random shapes? What are the chances of people not understand simple english, like No Smoking? Is it an alien language? Is it some squiggly lines that form some sort of shape(s)?

Maybe it means no smoking of tires? no smoking of maybe incense?

Puffing up in front of me in front of that sign only makes you well... an idiot. Not man/macho/cool (delete as appropriate), but an idiot who does not understand simple English or the ability to decipher a simple pictogram. And I am quite sure that there are more people out there with me here...

Its such a simple sign and nobody gives a damn about it. This is seriously, going to be the end of the world, nuff said.

Dogs + idiots = ?

Is it me or its just that some people are idiots? I mean really, everytime I walk Samantha, they will surely be some boys who will start taunting and/or try to get the dog's attention. Its a simple thing really, that they do not understand. Call the dog, you get his/her attention, the dog will investigate and then act appropriately. Its fine when the dog is on leash, but what if its some stray dog who is bored and wants to play? or just a stray who wants to bite the annoying idiot?

For example, i bring me German Shepard to the field for her daily walks. Almost everyday, i meet the same annoying git that tells me how to do stuff. For example, i brought her to a shady area (hot day) so we can enjoy the outdoors. When I say we, I meant me. But I digress, the smartass comes a tell me that they were playing there and can me and Sam go somewhere else, its all fine except for one thing, the field is huge, i was just standing under the tree with Sam on a leash, them kids weren't even playing near us in the first place, so i shot back, why don't you go there and play then since you suggested it to me. Another day came, same prick (ok, fine...I think its the same person) came to me and said, do not let your dog defecate on the field as we wanna play football... then came the Best Line of The Year. My friends dad is working in MBMB... I almost shouted at him at the point... just because i have a dog on my hands does not mean i am irresponsible. They are like hundreds of dogs... and I have only one.

Another gripe is, there are a few dogs in my taman, they are generally friendly to those who stays in the area and are more cautious towards others who don't. That's fine in all aspects, except for one thing. They are called Underage License-less Helmet-less Motorcycling Idiots of a race i am not allowed to speak of, but of course, i am not racist, its just them i see them do it all the time. Best part is, they don't even live in the area, ok fine, they live a few jalans away in their low(er) cost homes. Not that i am loaded or anything but I digress. They will mount their underpowered cub-chais and have fun their way. Which isto ride at (relatively) high speed and let them stray dogs chase them while shouting loudly at each other. Repeat procedure for a few times. Its a formula which works, for them. "Entertaining" to them, not to us or anyone who lives along the same road. What if they fall? Now you gotta be bonkers to help them, they deserve it, after what they done, which is something stupid. But then, thats just inhumanen besides, the whole world is watching.

What i can say, if they do fall and the dogs do bite them or something, they will be a ton of hoohah and a load of crap. Long story short, dogs = bad. But then the dog was provoked in the first place. But then blaming the dog is easier than blaming their beloved son who evidently lack brains, or good parenting. Or more spectacularly, both. Not that I am evil, but I really do want to see them fall of them bikes and let them have it, the taste of their own medicine. As I am writing this post, they performed their (almost) daily ritual of cheating death sorry, Injury.
