i can't help it but i must wind some livin-thing up.
said living-thing [pseudonym and sex withheld] - who's an ex-reader of this blog - got fed up of my unkind remarks about a certain bunch of homo sapien's that it stopped comin altogether. but not before makin its feeling's known, and stoppin short of callin me a xenophobe.
now, said living-thing is in fact a half-breed, whose mum is an ethnic chink - as opposed to "pure" 100% undiluted chink. regardless, said livin-thing is damn fuckin proud [of course, there's nothin wrong with it] of its chinese heritage that its blog is full of post's about just anything chinky-related.
especially nosh at the chinatown. which doesn't come as a surprise as i can safely vouch the whole lot of em do eat non-stop. 24-7. and no, i'm not exaggeratin, mind.
that also explains why they eat anythin that moves innit. ouch.
so, the purpose of this blah? curiosity got me to said livin-thing's blog early today [being a public holiday over ere, still] and then i chanced upon the latest post: said livin-thing has no absolute idea whatsoever what the *year of the dog actually meant. nor explainin briefly why it - together with its family - ate *twice* at same chinatown the night before the new year. and on the new year itself.
right. comin from someone who's so fuckin proud of it's [semi] chinky heritage. again, there's certainly nothin wrong with it.
which really is typical. just ask any wee island chinese youngling the history behind the new year. and i can wager the reply would be a glazed stare. followed by, "what you mean history? anyway, we chinese have been around for 5,000 years what...".
yeah, sure. 5,000 yonk's and still eating with **chopsticks? not much of a progress since, is there?
* it's "predicted" that the year of the fire-dog would be utterly kind to those born in the year of the monkey - which i'm kinda lookin forward to. strange but true. i'm not sure about the rest though.
** reference an unkind remark i heard about malay's eating with their right hand - which to em is completely unhygenic and barbaric.
as enscribed by the letter b @ January 31, 2006 10:14 AM | someone's pingedhmm, it stated mixed year for monkeys but under the elements section - which is Earth for my year - it'd be a fabulous one. i'm not one to pay attention to the zodiacs before but after what i'd gone through in 2004 and last year, i thought there's some element of truth in it. and then there's the corresponding western astrological sign also.
well, as long as it's smooth sailing throughout, i can't ask for more.
as blahed by the letter b @ February 2, 2006 08:50 AMHmmm, according to "fire-dog," it's suppose to be
- Great Year: Tigers, Horses.
I am the Year of the Tiger, and Krip is Year of the Horse.
Wonder what's in store for us??
