myth buster

Recently, my friend-the charity piratey said that it is so unlike me to pour out my feelings+ hour-on-hour update of myself, to a point that she is getting overdosed. Hence, i will change my style today. Instead of the normal update of my daily life, (despite the fact that the last 2 days were very eventful and tiring.) i will blog about a topic.. now, time to choose topic. *looks at other peoples blog titles*

Ah yes, "myth busters" is one of my favourite programs on the discovery channel. Unfortunately, i have not watched tv in such a long time, for the reasons that will take a separate post to explain, that i can barely remember most of the cool stuff i watched. They experiment on whether decapitation of the head is possible by a celling fan, whether a small whirlpool can suck a human in, etc. You'd be surprised by the results. Besides, the guys on the show are really funny.

However, what im about to write about is of no relation to that show. (haha u twerps)
I will now steal a topic from the machine. I will now expose a couple of downright lies told by your little idiot box, comics, or whatever comes to mind. (note that my opinion is highly affected by asian culture :p)

Myth no.1 - Everybody sleeps with everybody, but hey, we're friends. Its ok. Besides the fact that it hurt a little (and i slept with ur sister for revenge), nobody feels weirded out nor they're conscience say "YOU WHORE WHORE WHORE who...." Our emotions and personal life has little effect on our professional life, or in korean drama's too much effect. (aka kills self or becomes a drunk hobo because gf/bf cheated on them. by cheated i meant hugged someone else-normally in an elevator, and when the door opens.. OMGOSH CAUGHT! Objections? HAVE YOU WATCHED ANY KOREAN SERIES?)

Example: Grey's Anatomy, that show about basketball guys.. ermm... oh yea.. One Tree Hill.. (chronology- basketball...sex),many others. For the other extreme: Any korean series.

Truth (in asia) - Ok, though i am not exposed in this circle, im sure there are many sexually active people in Malaysia (thx to CLEO, BigBro, SisterSavior, GrandpaKnowledge, Auntie Anne's and whatever other "reliable sources" , for informing me that there are people who have so much.... that they cant sit..) HOWEVER, how many are all gathered together in a highly professional place such as a hospital? (and are hot) And how come they're so cool in the tv show? Its not fair realistic!! How can a group of friends, living on a certain hill that has a certain tree,coming from messed up families, be goodlooking and hot, smart and athletic, good hearted and kind all at the same time? Where did all the ugly people go? Last i remembered, the more goodlooking the person, the higher the chance that they are full of crap,jerks,dumb,strong,and for the girls, talk like a bimbo, act like...lol... Exceptions to most of the people i know personally of course.Lucky me =)


Myth no.2 - crap.. i forgot.. no.2 was suppose 2 be a good one. i was saving it. ermm ermm.. ok.. ill just punch in a filler.
Myth no.2 = Jojo

Truth - Ok, when she got famous, she was 13- singing about love and even said the songs are written based on her life experience. Hmmm... I heard it on flyfm. it was some interview, american top 40 or something. I changed the channel. Because when i was 13, i think i was still afraid of girls. (OK maybe 12 =p)

Leave:
" I gave up everythign I had, on something that just wouldn't last
But I refuse to cry, no tears will fall from these eyee..eyeeee...eyyes. oooooooohhhh"

Baby its you:
"[Musical Break]
Ooooohhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh
Oooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh.......

[Chorus]
Yeah Yeah Yeaey Yeahey Ye Ye Yeay......[Fades Out]"

u call that a song? if its not for some mega editing and mixing, she'd sound like cassie making "bat" sounds. (dont ask me what the heck the bat was doing..)
I always thought that Jojo had a slightly large forehead. Then suddenly, "I dont wanna be... a murderer" came along.. Now thats... thats an alien for sure. You can land a 747 on her forehead and still have space to park a bus.
Lines like "Umberella...ella ella ella...A A A" and "cause in the dark, you don't see shiny cars" would give you some example of "slow learners mating for many generations"..

Myth no.3 - Multiple goodlooking girls chase after a very mediocre looking average joe kinda guy. There was this manga i read (i read it not knowing what the hell it was ok! it just had a good rating and i dwloaded it!), literally half a dozen girls threw themselves at this ordinary twerp-ish high school guy! From the hottest girl in the school, to the smartest nerd (who is also pretty and have uncanny proportions-like all fictional girl characters), the track star, some cute "idol" <- whatever the heck it means in japan,his friends sister, some random tuition mate. LIKE EVERY GIRL HE ENCOUNTERS! WTH!??! They like him because he is honest, sincere, cute?? i dont remember. What i do remember is thinking how absolutely ridiculous it was. i want. Did i mention the guy was failing school and not a hunk? He was skinny and .... nevermind. Ps- he couldnt choose between the girls, and what did he get for his fickle mindedness? A bashing of his life? All the girls left him? NO! MORE THROWING OF SELF BY GIRLS AT HIM! WHAT LIES!

Example - many Manga (Japanese comics) and jap/korean shows.

Truth - No such thing. Nada. Mei you. Eelek.Mou kam ke si. The only way that would happen if you "paid". And its illegal.

Which leads me to,


Myth no.4 - In the end, the good guy gets the girl and the jerk dies/suffers/turns into an amphibian/goes to jail. Alternatively, the good guy become real good friends with the girl, and the jerk still "gets what he deserves"

Example - nearly all romantic comedies.

Truth - Girl chooses bad guy. Good guy sulks at the corner, curses, and vows to turn bad. Girl gets dumped by bad guy. Cries for 5 months and gains 200 pounds. Now has dropped into the "bad guys do not want you" category. She looks for good guy. He has turned bad- he got another girl. Vicious cycle continues.
See how the choices made by girls will soon doom the world?


Myth no. 5 - Train station. Guy bends down tie shoelace. Gets up and knocks into a girl who was rushing into the train. They're eyes meet. 24 frames per second (fps) becomes 12 fps. (slowmotion) They're surroundings are blurred.A romantic music plays in the background.(one which you will soon be familiar to) Nothing can be seen except each other for a good 2-3 seconds in reality, but about 2 minutes in the show and 20mins of replay throughout the series. Meets up 20 years later.Same way of meeting but girl tying shoelace instead. Guy comes out of train. Knocks. *MUSIC CUES* "Hey arent you the gurl whom i knocked into on the 14th of November 1987 at the King's Cross Train station about 3.47pm +8.00 GMT? Its a sign"
"Yes! its fate! We should marry"
"No shit!"

Example - korean/japanese series.

Truth - Most likely if someone knocks into you, u'd give them a "death glare" and resume your business.

Too tired. its like 2.15am. =p wrap up next time. As u can see i dont watch much tv. I just like to bash things/people. In a friendly kinda way.. Superfwens! bye. *zzzz*
