Cheap and Good

 The Queen asked her Knights for more new young (cheap) recruits for her wars.
Someone replied "There is 'cheap', 'good', and 'available', but you can only pick two of three traits.
An awkward silence ensued...

Discworld - Guards! Guards!

Snippet
They may be called the Palace Guard, the City Guard, or the Patrol. Whatever the name, their purpose in any work of heroic fantasy is identical: it is, round Chapter Three (or ten minutes into the film) to rush into the room, attack the hero one at a time, and be slaughtered. No-one ever asks them if they wanted to. This book is dedicated to those fine men.

The Zombie Survival Guide

In the event of an outbreak, it would be wise to familiarize yourself on the differences between "insanity" and "emo" behavior.

It could save your life

You too should know the sorrow of losing that you wanted to protect

Man tends to think of the past when they are about to die,
as if searching for proof that they had ever been alive.


We shall take a moment of awkward silence for someone I should have got to know better and could no longer do. Life is fragile.

Staying over with me was a bad idea. It's not like I didn't try to make her leave, but everytime I confronted her, she would avoid me. And then the inevitable happened. A freak accident, one in a million chance and it had to take place. Was at the wrong place at the wrong time, a sudden gust of wind and the door slammed.

No, we don't talk to each other, but afterall she was the only one that lived here with me for the last few weeks. And No, no one deserves such a fate!

Don't know if I should be grateful or sorry that I wasn't around. It would have torn me apart, yet I should have been there by her side during the final moments.

I only saw it this afternoon. Opened the door and noticed something sticking where it shouldn't be. When she didn't respond, I knew it was bad, real bad.

At least it must have been quick. It had to be! There was no sign of a struggle, maybe she didn't even knew what hit her, let us take comfort in that.

Wish I treated her better when I had the chance...

Discworld - Ankh-Morpork

Ankh-Morpork
...One legend has it that if danger ever threatens the city, the eight stone hippopotami guarding the Brass Bridge will come to life and run away.

...Another legend claims that many centuries ago, the Disc flooded. An ark was constructed, containing two of every animal. When the accumulated dung of forty days and nights was dropped over the side, they called it Ankh-Morpork.

Discworld - Small Gods

Taken from the earlier Discworld Novel I read, could never quite forget this story. Fans like Terry Pratchett for his odd sense of humor. Meaningless yet thought provoking, the world is portrayed in a completely different perspective through the fictional discworld.


SMALL GODS(Discworld 13)

By Terry Pratchett

NOW CONSIDER THE TORTOISE AND the eagle.

The tortoise is a ground-living creature. It is impossible to live nearer the ground without being under it. Its horizons are a few inches away. It has about as good a turn of speed as you need to hunt down a lettuce. It has survived while the rest of evolution flowed past it by being, on the whole, no threat to anyone and too much trouble to eat.

And then there is the eagle. A creature of the air and high places, whose horizons go all the way to the edge of the world. Eyesight keen enough to spot the rustle of some small and squeaky creature half a mile away. All power, all control. Lightning death on wings. Talons and claws enough to make a meal of anything smaller than it is and at least take a hurried snack out of anything bigger.

And yet the eagle will sit for hours on the crag and survey the kingdoms of the world until it spots a distant movement and then it will focus, focus, focus on the small shell wobbling among the bushes down there on the desert. And it will leap . . .

And a minute later the tortoise finds the world dropping away from it. And it sees the world for the first time, no longer one inch from the ground but five hundred feet above it, and it thinks: what a great friend I have in the eagle.

And then the eagle lets go.

And almost always the tortoise plunges to its death. Everyone knows why the tortoise does this. Gravity is a habit that is hard to shake off. No one knows why the eagle does this. There's good eating on a tortoise but, considering the effort involved, there's much better eating on practically anything else. It's simply the delight of eagles to torment tortoises.

But of course, what the eagle does not realize is that it is participating in a very crude form of natural selection.

One day a tortoise will learn how to fly.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somehow, I find myself relating to the Turtle in this story. Surviving in the politicorporate environment by being 'too much trouble to eat' Thankfully the eagles have not got me yet, and just maybe, someday I'll be able to fly too....

Girly Mannnn!

Indian Thriller with English Lyrics!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDKcevMFUCo


Someone took a MV segment from an Indian movie and did the lyrics of the song for what it sounds like in English, (not its translation). And so, the subtitles are just plain nonsense. Hilarious!

Released Dec2006, google for it and we can see Girly Man making hall of fame in countless humor sites

"GOSH, my old calculator ain't got a bow.
nippley man I met, he ate my motorboat!"

College Saga - A Final Fantasy VII Parody Video

Video of the month
Quoting from GameAxis Magazine where I found this:
"Folks there is simply no contest for the hilarity of this video. Anyone that has played a final fantasy RPG has to check this out. You'll laugh, you'll cry. But mostly you'll cry because you'll be laughing so hard."















I agree.

"College saga is the deranged creation of Mark Leung who is an obvious lifelong fan of the venerable Final Fantasy series of RPGs. IN what is one of the most hilarious and diabolically twisted low-budget videos I've ever seen, he tells the story of an adventure called "College Saga" as performed like a live action version of a Final Fantasy game. Combat, FF style as done in real life, is just about the funniest thing I've seen."

Enter College Saga

The high quality videos on the site doesn't seem to load very well, so here's the Youtube link

Note: If you've never played any Final Fantasy games before, you'll probably not understand this.

Jinnai Tomonori's - Funny Japanese Zombie Game

Jinnai Tomonori's - Funny Japanese Zombie Game

Funny Japanese Zombie Game (English subtitles)
This is one of the funniest video clip I've seen recently. It's hosted on Crunchyroll so you'll need to log in to a free account first.

http://www.crunchyroll.com/showmedia?id=191367


It's a spoof of "house of the dead" style shooter games, featuring some strangly well behaved zombies. I wouldn't want to spoil it here, so see it for yourself.

Here is a (lower quality) youtube copy for those that couldn't log into crunchyroll.

The truth was fundamentally incorrect

Don't konw why, for a long time now, 夫人 is under the misconception that I'm dating JJ and thats troublesome. Hope the notion will wear off soon.

Read a good joke today:
HOW TO STOP PEOPLE FROM BUGGING YOU ABOUT GETTING MARRIED
Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.
