Why? Because, who does?

On Saturday, my cousin invited me and everyone who participated in the Rally Around the House show for steak dinner. It was really cool because everyone was older but they all had a sense of humor, especially my cousin's fiance's brothers. They were telling us their childhood stories about each other and it was so damn funny, like how one brother was scared the shit out of mind for watching something and didn't want to go to the restroom so decided to pee on his brother's bed. Or how he was having a nightmare about him being stuck in some tunnel and it was caving in and he was pushing upwards in that motion you do when you are trying to protect yourself and since he was on the bottom of his bunk bed he pushed his brother up top down, I think. Anyways, his brother woke up and noticed the dilemma he was in and fixed everything and tried to pretend nothing went 'wrong.' Shoot, that was so damn funny, I got to the point where I had to stand up and laugh and when he brought out the peeing story, I laughed so hard I had to pee.

Today, I went and did nothing, just my homework and went to work at night. At work, one particular thing really pissed me off and it was near the end of my shift. This guy ordered an Oreo Overload which was basically ice cream with 4 oreos, spoonful of chocolate chips and fudge. It was a party of 3 so I did that first and in the end he was like "I don't want this." Fine, I understand, but when I offered to make him a new one or something else he replied "No thanks, I don't want anything. That thing tastes like oreos."

WELL, FUCKING SHIT. So it does taste like Oreos, who would've guessed it. You ordered a creation with the words OREO in it and you expected strawberries? I got so goddamn ticked off at the sheer brilliance of his response, that for the first time, I had to talk back…and insult him. I just replied to him, "well you ordered an oreo overload, what did you expect?" and walked away to get the total of their order. I want to cuss him out so bad for even replying with such a statement, but I thought about it and didn't. But seriously, that was the funniest comment and the same comment that just made me go straight up mad. I hate you society, stop flooding my store with your stupidity, you aren't welcome. With that said, I believe I have heard and encountered all stupid types of people now

Another thing was one of my co-workers just pissed me off. Background story, she 'ran' away from home on Fridaynight 'cause of a fight with parents. Understandable, go you rebel, go! She is going back home tonight because their parents reported the car she drove away in stolen. The thing that pissed me off was when I tried to reason with her for why she was running away. I was like telling her how it wasn't smart and all that to run away with something that wasn't hers (the car, I don't think it was under her name so if it was reported stolen it made her look like a criminal) and she was like I could live without it and all this garbage. I continued asking her because I want her to know about the situation she would've put herself in if she ran away for a long time and how fucked up she would be in the future, because as a friend, I cared and didn't want her to do anything stupid. But no, I guess I shouldn't care cause after a bit she went off on me because I was helping her reason with herself. Well fuck you, if I didn't care, I wouldn't even bother asking or tried to reason with you. I just got so furious that I just went off on her and this coworker when the coworker kept on telling me to stop 'talking' to her about the situation. And then, they got all apologetic with me and shit and I was like "wtf, sorry for caring. next time, I will remember to not give a fucking damn" and just didn't talk to her for the rest of the damn shift. But seriously, I didn't want to be mean to her, it's jsut that I wanted her to fucking realize the shit she would be in if she hadn't thought about it and goddamn ran away for good. Fuck it, I am not going to care about the crap she does until she fucks up and I can just stand and just shake my head. Sorry, life's a bitch, then you die. I got other things to do and I need to live my life.

*sigh* If you read that, then damn. You can read an imcomprehensible paragraph

Happy Belated Chinese New Years1
chris lin posted in Personal on January 23rd, 2004

[ [b]offlineSHIT[/b] ]Chinese New Years was yesterday but I didn't have time and didn't feel like posting. Yesterday in my biology class, our teacher mentioned this interesting fact about how humans are the only species that drink some other animals milk. All other animal's drink their own which got me thinking. What happens if we drank our own milk? Instead of asking for low fat or non fat, would we ask "Can I have some swedish milk? Or perhaps German if you have any?" Would females be stuck in a cage with a pump stuck to their breasts pumping milk? Imagine that, I did and started laughing. Then in economics class some genius decided to ask if we had to buy the book, right after the teacher said "This book is optional" and written it on the board. Great, stuck with a bunch of bright people.

Some guy asked me in our econ class if we could be study 'buddies.' He seemed like he needed help so I offered to help him out. He even said he would pay me for being nice and helping him out which is cool and all, but I will probably refuse it. He told me he will pay me after he gets his loans, so I was like "Screw it, he's already having money problems, I don't want to fucking steal from him." I went to my cousin's house yesterday to play with Elise. She knows how to walk by herself now! I asked my cousin and she told me she started walking 2 weeks ago. I went over to their house for dinner and talked with them for 2 hours while hearing some interesting stories from all of them.

On saturday, my friend invited me to go with him to play [url=http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=airsoft&f=1]airsoft[/url], which if you didn't click the link which describes it, it is a "A game where opposing teams use either electric, gas, or spring powered replicas of real guns, to propel a small diameter ball-bearing(BB) at the opposing team." And if you didn't understand that, it is just paintballing with more tactics are strategies and instead of paintballs, airsoft uses BBs.

So 2 of my friends and I went to play airsoft, for it was the first time I ever played it. We met up with some of my friend's teammates and then headed out to play. It was so freaking sweet when we got started. Since there aren't exactly any legal fields we just go out in the middle of some field and start playing. The fields are usually recommended by people who scout them and play in that area ahead of time then recommend it to other friends. So we went to Riverside to a place called Woodcrest to play for that day.

When we got there there was another group of people that came by and asked if we wanted to skirmish. Since they were up for friendly games, they thought "why not?" We played 2 games and beat them pretty good both times. We played in this area where it was like a jungle. Lotta trees, muddy and a ravine running through it. It was really sweet, since you didn't want to get shot you would be all careful and crap. And when we spotted someone we would point it out and get in positions and start shooting. Even though this was fake, you had to run like a biatch to avoid getting shot with the BBs. After we played the 2 skirm games, they left so we played by ourselves. Near the area was a flipped over car, for some reason, and they usually play a Black Hawk Down scenario using the car. If you watched the movie before, it was the scene with the 2 snipers versus a bajillion people. So like we spilt up the group into two teams, a defense and offense team. The offense team had more people but didn't have much cover while the defense team got this car to hide behind. It was so cool when on offense because you got like so many people coming from multiple sides pinning them down. On the left was when I was on offense attacking the people behind the car covering fire so someone can run over to my position . On defense was fun also. We each took a position to cover and I called right so when the game started, I just kneeled there looking at the right side of the car. Some guy tried to sprint to flank us, but I just went full auto and got his ass :D.

I am so getting into this game, since that was my first time, all my gear, weapons and everything was being borrowed. Within the few weeks I am off to buy some BDUs (the camo clothing), facemasks, gloves and a gun. I went to the gun store today and I am thinking whether to get a G36 (the gun I am holding in the standing pose) or a M16 (the gun my teammate is holding in that kneeling pose). I also remembered one of the guys brought a machete for some weird reason. The thing was he put it into the ground so the hilt was going up and the tip was in the dirt and some paintballing group in their car was driving over and noticed it. From what I heard the guy was talking and all of a sudden widen his eyes when he noticed the machete in the ground and pointed it out to a girl in the car. They got a little freaked out because we looked like we were serious hardcore since most of us were dressed in full gear and there were all these guns everywhere and it just looked like the machete was going to be used in the game as a weapon, LMAO. They asked where the paintballing group was today all nervously and we just pointed out over the hill and they skidaddled, but ya, that was humourous :).

Someone get France a hobby, they just made a 3.7 meter omelette3
chris lin posted in News on January 18th, 2004

UZES, France (AFP) - A giant truffle omelette worth several thousand euros (dollars) was whisked up in the French town of Uzes during an annual fair to celebrate the "black diamond." Due to the unusually hot spell in the summer, the price of the black truffle, exotically known as the tuber melanosporum, has risen to 1,000 euros (1,250 dollars) per kilo.

Some 3.5 kilos of truffles and more than 3,200 eggs went into making the giant omelette by a local association set up 18 years ago. Prepared in the openair, the culinary feat required a frying pan of some 3.7 metres in diameter. It was cut into 1,000 pieces and sold. "The giant omelette is a convivial way of allowing consumers to get to know the truffle without it hurting their wallet too much," Claude Rosso, of the association said.

What I said in title, 'nuff said.

[i][b]Cloquet Man Wants $126,000 Church Donation Back, Church Says No[/b]

A 55-year-old man is suing a Cloquet, Minnesota church because it won't give back a $126,000 donation he gave during a deep depression five years ago.

Marcel Mager of Cloquet says he made the anonymous donation during a time of emotional distress and thought giving the church money would ease his pain. His wife had left him two weeks prior to the January 1999 donation. It was nearly their entire life savings.

Five months later, Mager asked for the money back, but leaders at the Cloquet Gospel Tabernacle church said no. They had already d the money for new family ministry space.

After spending years trying to resolve the situation quietly, Mager sued the church in 2002 and it has yet to be resolved.

Mager says he's coming forward in the hopes the church will return his money.

The church pastor, the Reverend Richard Doebler, says church leaders feel bad about the situation but don't plan on giving back the donation.

Begin Irrelevent Blog Titles: Go away flo :D0
chris lin posted in Personal on January 12th, 2004

[b][ONLINElife][/b] UPDATE!

I hate how everyone owns a domain name these days, especially people without skills. In the old days I go to a domain and expect fascination and awes, now I go to one and see someone with a site that would qualify to be "geocities." And not only that, they all get resellers with their parent's money! How do I know it's not their money? Most of them aren't able to get a job yet so they have to beg someone to give them a reseller instead of a normal hosting account. Why not save the trouble of that and get hosted by someone else? You save everyone trouble and money. And more importantly, I understand if you are new with a domain but I expect you to pick up things quick (like how to use cpanel, mailing, etc). If you can't pick it up quick enough, then don't do it. A domain name doesn't make you cool, it doesn't make you have skills. And if you notice my hostee's sites are suspended, that is because they are too stupid to recognize the rules or just pissing me off. I've had too many just up and leave or just sell their domain thinking I would host their new owner. There's a reason this is a selective hosting, it is because I want to host you, not some untalented dumbass. Although that is not the case with some of them, some I am grateful for. The ones I chat online, talk to them, comment their sites, those are the ones I like. Thanks for being my hostee and keeping me sane. Once you are hosted by me, you are set. I tell you that you get 50 mb of webspace and 2 gigs of bandwidth but I will always raise it if you need it…that is, if I like you. If you don't even communicate with me and I don't even know you, screw it, you ain't getting shit.

Also, what is up with the goddamn domain names these days? It's like most teeny boppers don't put any thoughts into their names. I just saw one called fucklove.org. What the fuck is that? You are too fucking young to even know what love is, and I hope your mother would approve of this because if she does, I would like to slap her also for being such a goddamn horrible parent…and what's with the phrases in the domains names. i-love-somebody-because-im-cool.com. No one cares. Put some thought into it or…don't buy one :o. Shocking, I know. And for all those wondering what my domain means, I did put thought into it, it describes who I am, just look up the word latent.

Fuck, there needs to be a screening before you can obtain a domain name. Filter the stupid sounding shit. Want to read more ridiculous names? Go to nova-boards.com or vortexmb.com and just look at the member's sites. It's a teeny bopper extravaganza and you are all invited!

I am taking off commenting for now, people don't bother so if you want to comment, just IM me.

If you want to flame me, go ahead, depending on who you are, your opinion would differ. But please, if you are going to flame me through any type of communication, leave a site or something so I can see how skilled you are.

Damn, I forgot what I was going to type. The online part got me so frustrated that I forgot. Oh well, school started today and it's fun. My classes are PSYCH 33 (Psychology of Personality), MATH 50(Pre-Calc), ENGLISH 1, ECON (Macro Economics, should be easy), and BIO (Intro to Bio). So far, I only took Psych which is a really fun class already, plus the teacher actually can keep me awake and keep the class alive so I should do well in that class. See, my grade depends on how well I stay awake in the class. If I stay awake, I do good because I usually can memorize or know everything a teacher has to say. But if the class is boring as hell, then I fall asleep and don't know shit when I do my homework. I can teach myself by reading the book but when I get stuck, I get screwed. Math on the other hand, was boring. It was very boring. Our teacher reminds me of an asian Peter from The Family Guy. He's all chubby with a round face and he sorta sounds like him. Everytime he talked, I just couldn't help thinking of Peter and was waiting for him to laugh like Peter does in Family Guy. That kept me entertained for 2 hours, but I am screwed for on Wednesday when I go back to pre-calc. I mean, what will keep my entertained!?

I was feeling a little lonely, but then I read [url=http://www.xanga.com/thestuntman]this site[/url] and realized I don't have it so bad

Customer Service3
chris lin posted in Personal on January 7th, 2004

I could barely handle serving customers because of how they act. The plain arrogance and stupidity just amazed me. But throughout the months, I developed…an immunity for that. Until last night, I thought they couldn't piss me off no more. But no. NO. Goddamn it, these fucking mexicans (because that's what race they were and I felt like pointing it out) came in a horde. I started serving and didn't think much until the a response to a question I asked.

Me: "What would you like today?"
Dumbass: "Coconut and pineapple in this *points to size* size"
Me: "What kind of ice cream do you want?"
Dumbass: "I don't know."

I clinched my teeth and said words even Ozzy Osbourne would be ashamed to hear. God, I wanted to say "If you don't know, how the fuck should I" but I kept my mouth shut. After asking her 2 more times with the same GODDAMN RESPONSE, her husband finally explained she needed to choose an ice cream (DUH) and she finally gets it (ARG!). By gosh, I was frustrated by this time. Mixes later and some talking, we go to her little girl, whom, I believe shouldn't be allowed to talk…ever. When asked what kind of ice cream she wants, she replies "lemon." Honest answer, I mean, we have behind us a statement that says "If you don't see it, ask if we carry it." I reply with no and point in front of them and state what you see is what you get.

Lovely, they understood me the first time. So the little gremlin points at the candy cane ice cream and replies she wants cotton candy ice cream. I'm like, "Umm, that's candy cane." It obviously doesn't get through her thick skull because she seems to have heard me and reply "I want cotton candy ice cream" while pointing at the candy cane ice cream. Mother of all that is evil, I felt so sad for their parents now. After both parents telling her that is not cotton candy, she finally gets it and orders some other ice cream. I wished I could cut off the father's fawking dick to make sure he doesn't reproduce anymore. And beat the mother for raising such a gremlin. It wasn't that too, she was so goddamn annoying. Just doing little shit that gets on my nerve.

My cousins also came in to get ice cream and teased me about my cat chasing adventure. That is all I need to say about them, they tease me for fun. I need to learn to block them from my site.

Later that night I watched Resevoir Dogs which was really really cool. It is about 6 strangers all codenamed a color who works for this one guy. They are codenamed to insure that if one gets caught, they won't be able to squeal on the others which is pretty cool. I like how Steve Buscemi was Mr. Pink and made a big ass fuss about it when he was assigned that name. And the car conversation when they picked up Mr. Orange and they were talking about stories. I don't like giving out spoilers so I won't say much but for the people who watched it you know what I am talking about.

[edit]
Added few applications
- Spybot 1.2
- Realplayer Plus 8
- Easy GIF Animator 2

How about a fucking thank you to me for the goddamn leechers leeching deadaim, otherwise, i'll just lock it up and give it to people I want to give it to.

Finally! I get to go online like I normally do. My dad was home for the past few weeks and he doesn't like me going on the computer too much so I just went out and did…..what normal people do It was quite refreshing, I was introduced to this new invention, the car. Supposedly, it was invented a while ago and [i]I[/i] was never told about it. I have been working a lot for the past week, even on New Year's Eve so I didn't bother celebrating because when I came home I was dead tired. Damn customers that want ice cream when it is freezing cold >(

I can't really recall much from what I did except for Friday when I went with my co-workers to shop at the mall. Well, more like I shop and they tell me their opinions because they were trying to cut back on their shopping (one of them has it as a resolution while the other was just broke). I got a hoodie (something I have needed for a while but never bothered til now), some pants and 2 colognes - Tommy Hilfiger and Very Sexy II for Him by Victoria's Secret. Then we went to chill at a pizza joint and then to a breakhouse where my co-worker attempted to pick up on the workers there and failed…but no, that doesn't stop him. He just continues to be a dumbass and waving everytime they come near our table. Very comical, my co-workers and I were just busting up laughing since we knew he was joking around. Ya, that night kicked ass more than most.

I can't remember anyuthing else, but I do remember I need to update the forum (add a skin, FINALLY), update flash games, add new applications and change the features. I'll be doing that within the next few days

So what's up? Hrm, everytime I ask that I want to do like a thread thing where other people can read your replies also instead of opening a window…maybe I'll try to do that…
