On what I will do before I start at the next job
I have actually been a big fan of Heath Ledger's since "10 Things I Hate About You", but I think this was still a funny conversation.
Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: but i'll likely start in feb which leaves me with one week break something i haven't had since i graduated! woohoo! JaDe: that's so nice... Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: yeah it is i can finish up some stuff i've been putting off like my album and novel :p oh, almost forgot my epic feature film JaDe: who are you working with? are you doing avatar II or something Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: nah, something grittier heath ledger begins a reboot of the heath ledger story starring christian bale as heath ledger it's gonna be awesome JaDe: what Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: there's this part where christian bale plays heath ledger playing the joker in dark knight JaDe: christian bale does not make heath ledger Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: "who plays christian bale playing batman?" u ask? adam west, of course :p JaDe: ahahahahha that's gonna be awesome Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: yeah we're gonna have the "POW" and "BAM" stuff only the latest in special effects for my baby JaDe: are you aiming for oscards ocars* aarahrgahrgahggghh OSCARS Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: lol JaDe: stupid fingers Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: i'm pretty sure it'll sweep the awards JaDe: sure just invite me to the premier Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: needless to say the film will be based on my novel and the soundtrack will be from my album i'm just worried the universe might collapse because it wasn't built to contain that level of awesome JaDe: hahah well arent you afraid if the universe collapses where will you be? Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: it's a concern i'm hoping to get chuck norris to maintain the structural integrity of the universe with his beard
Check out this picture. I saw someone who said she would date Wolverine and went to all the trouble of changing my display name just so I could crack this joke. And yes, I have two gtalk accounts who are in each others' contact lists.
So I'm considering joining this programming competition, and I was talking to a friend about it. She's considering joining too, so here's the conversation that ensued...
Friend: hope to see u too, if i;m joining Friend: ahhahaha Don AQ®: gold ÷ 100 = 忍: hahaha if you're joining too i hope u die
As you can see, I am not big on the sportsmanship. Now, where did I leave my can of arsenic?
Hacker News has recently been renamed to Innocuous News by Paul Graham, because someone complained that he kept getting weird looks from people who thought he was a computer criminal. This is the sort of quaint hacker humour that keeps me going back to it everyday.
So I failed my driving test today, and I was talking about it with one of my bros.
(07:34:56 SGT) Don AQ®: Epic fail!: lol (07:34:59 SGT) Don AQ®: Epic fail!: epic fail! (07:35:17 SGT) Don AQ®: Epic fail!: grand total of 38 points!

1Means "strongest in history". It's an Asian thing. 2Literally: Fierce fire war vehicle. It was a HK movie a lot of Chinese dudes of my generation liked.
<Anonymous> Now, I’m sure many of you have encountered little shits in supermarkets. Little kids running about and knocking things over, being rude, walking all over their parents, you know the kind. But the worst are the biters. Yes, those little cunts that feel it is okay to bite you whenever they feel like it. <Anonymous> Okay, here’s the best part. A biter got me today when I was grocery stopping. He broke the fucking skin, too. This was when the gears started turning, the moment I saw a tiny sprickle of blood on the little shit’s teeth as he was grinning at me like the little cunt he is. I made my eyes get wide, and started screaming “SHIT! SHIT!.” Now, my good friend, Tom we’ll call him, was there too, and he instantly picked up on it. He started shouting “FUCK! MAYBE HE DIDN’T GET IT! FUCK!.” By now, the kid is scared shitless and starts crying, and instantly, Mizz Mom appears out of nowhere and starts getting pissy at us for yelling at her kid. <Anonymous> Here’s the kicker, I look her straight in the eye and say, “Mam, get your son tested as soon as possible, he just bit me and I’m… I’m FUCKING HIV POSITIVE.” <Anonymous> And now there is silence. Not a peep in the entire store. The brat knows he just fucked up big time because his mom isn’t defending his ass. She just stares at me wide eyed. I walk away from them, buy my shit from the wide eyed cashier, all the while blood is dripping from my calf, making a nice little trail on the floor. And, just s we leave, we start to hear the mother sobbing. Sobbing like the cunt she is. <Anonymous> I have never felt any more satisfaction than the moment I heard that sob.
My friend and I were talking about long job titles and how there seems to be a generally inverse relationship between the length of a person's job title and his actual ability. We also observed that if your job title doesn't tell people what you actually do, then you're probably not doing much. Take, for instance, the title Deputy Assistant Vice President. I remarked, upon hearing this title, that it's like Number 2 of Number 2 of Number 2, since that's more or less what the words "deputy", "assistant" and "vice" means. You might as well call the job Vice Vice Vice President.
So in this case "vice(3);" would be the title of the guy above.
I think we can all agree that this is a more efficient method (method, get it? haw haw haw) for expressing such titles.
p.s. I am a software programmer, which means I get paid to think about stuff like that.
p.p.s. Yes, I know an iterative function would be more efficient usually, but recursive functions are just cooler.
I found this article absolutely fascinating and hilarious. Beyond the trappings of manic humour, however, there are some pieces of arcane technical knowledge to be gleaned from there. Take this C snippet, for instance.
int arr[2] = {1,2}; int i = 1;
Now, what is the value of i[arr]? Yes, it seems obvious to me now, but I was a little surprised to find that gcc accepted it.
I was talking with a friend just now, and he had just completed his National Service (the mandatory 2-year sentence term in the armed forces for Singaporean males). So he was telling me that it's tough to be back in the civilian world because he hasn't found a job yet and there was no more allowance coming from the army. Then he jokingly wondered how many more people he had to sleep with.
Punchline: I'll pay you to not sleep with me, dude.
So my friends and I were talking about buying an island. I decided that if I bought an island and it was situated beside an inhabited area, I'd start digging deep. Hopefully, I'd eventually hit the mantle and woohoo! Lava! Imagine the surprise of the nearby residents when they suddenly find themselves living beside a FUCKING LIVE VOLCANO.
Due to the fact that my ego is a humongous, bloated monstrousity, it is not highly unlikely that I wouldn't say no to your linking my blog, so there is no need to ask me.
