He’s on Medical Leave Not Medical Certificate!
Posted by Gallivanter in Gripes on 17. Sep, 2009 | 13 Comments
Why do we Asians like to say that? “He’s on MC today”, “He will not be coming in because he’s taken MC today”. WTF. This is the downside of Manglish, Malaysian English.
MC is the abbreviation for Medical Certificate, not Master of Ceremony nor My Cock. Imagine that, “She’s on My Cock today”. The RIGHT saying [...]
Alleged Malay-Bashing Complaint Letter

First of all, I think this is bullshit! I believe this was created by either “enemies” of this couple who runs an auction business or some politician (most likely in UMNO) trying to divert the issues faced by this dodgy party by creating a fake letter to stir racial hatred.
It’s stupid to think that this [...]
Working at Home – A Recession Saver

Imagine if there’s a real solution to us working at home? Of course the details needs to be worked out, especially with Asians being generally smartasses in finding loopholes.
It can really be liberating to skip rush hour, save car maintenance and petrol expenses! The onus is for you to be SELF-DRIVEN.
How can it work? Well, I thought about [...]

If we could shrink the earth’s population to 100 people, with all the existing ratios remaining the same, it would look something like this:
57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 from the Western Hemisphere(both north and south),8 would be Africans
52 would be female, 48 would be male
70 would be non-white, 30 would be white
70 would be non-Christian, [...]
Expatriates’ Nonexistent Expectation on Food
Posted by Gallivanter in Food on 26. Feb, 2009 | 9 Comments

I notice that whites, foreigners, expats are in love with the most flavourless of Malaysian food. It’s comical to see these foreigners give kudoses on food that is mediocre, which they believe it is a blessing to their tastebuds.
To hear them say it’s the best savouring food they ever had is just sheer ignorance. It’s simply because these whities are contented within their taste buds confinement, and [...]
Music Softwares That I’ve Used Over the Years
Posted by Gallivanter in Reviews on 06. Nov, 2008 | 9 Comments
[ad]
I’ve been a music lover for as long as I can remember. With great addiction comes great addiction fixes! I think I started with Napster back in 1999, and was using it for almost 2 years until it ran into some problems with the authorities.
I abandoned Napster for Audiogalaxy, a web-based music sharing system, and [...]
