… because Microsoft just fails at advertisements.

I was browsing YouTube the other day and stumbled upon this really cool parody of the Laptop Hunters advertisement, with a voice-over that did a great job of dissecting Microsoft’s corporate jargon and put in its place, normal speech. This video was the first since the original Hitler Xbox [...]

Never before have FaceBook quizzes given me such a deep insight into my life. Yes, I am philosophical and pensive. Guess what? That was a choice to one question in a quiz. I love quizzes like this, as they prove to be a good window into my life, and how The Big Bang, the event [...]

Well, I haven’t been posting for the past few days, so I have decided to post something today. I will talk about friendship, in response to a FaceBook note Zhen Sheng (a close friend I had referred to as Jarrett in my previous posts) had written on Friday, which is detailed below in verbatim.
“Friends are [...]

Apple has just released three new “Get A Mac” advertisements, one of which I though was pretty hilarious.
I am trying to steer away from the serious topics that I have been discussing for rather long, but rather, adopt a light-hearted tone for today’s post. I will of course, post more insightful posts in the [...]

I have just realized, I haven’t posted anything funny or light-hearted here before, so I’ll do it today. Far from the serious posts that I normally whip up, let’s try something new: jokes about video games.
The anatomy of a video gamer’s mind:

I have to download content? Why not just put it in the [...]

I have a penchant for noir films. I do not watch many movies, but movies like Max Payne, The Punisher and Punisher: War Zone are among my favourites. I love anything that has got to do with crime, bullets and speedy autos. However, I’m especially a sucker for noir films, and I’ll go crazy when [...]

Bad things come in twos, good things too.
Sometimes, they come in threes. Well, it doesn’t matter, since they are naturally-occuring prime numbers that we use very often.
Well, there is a Chinese saying that sort of conveys the same idea, but that is not the point.
Well, today I’ve came across two new words, “Nihilism” and “Pragmatism”. [...]

This is a follow-up to my previous post, here: click.
Yesterday, in school, I was issued these really ambiguous “achievements” and “personal qualities” forms, which were really intended for all of the final-year (Secondary Four) students to fill up. Following a quick glance through the papers, I eyed upon a section titled “Social-Moral Achievements”.
Really? “Social-Moral achievements”? [...]

As a video game enthusiast (we call oursleves “hardcore gamers”, “core gamers”, or simply just “gamers”), I am a sucker for all things “achievements”. In fact, it is something many Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Windows gamers are getting used to. Even iPod touch applications do implement achievement features into games.
Today’s post is pretty much [...]

I call myself an non-orthodoxist. As someone with interests in video games of high production values, I live a rather Bohemian lifestyle. Not many people adhere to such a lifestlye, lest accept it.
That is why, I am grateful for the sole true friend I have right now that fate has given me. Having lived a [...]
