Pikachu

Pikachu from Pokemon, also called "Satan's *cute* weapon to take over the world", the creature that once swept the world by storm, infecting the minds of kids and some adults alike, has become another page in history.

When Pikachu was *the* trend, people did strange things to "honor" their fuzzy little yellow electrical-generating idol that speaks only "Pika~".

They turned their pets;
and their bikes too;
and even their cars

and if their desires were still not satisfied,
they turned themselves into Pikachus...

Anyway, the gender of Pikachu has always been debated by fans and haters alike... Now, the truth is finally out... Pikachu is a female! Take a look at the evidences:-

Seeing kids entering from her cute little hairless yellow pussy, doesn't it make you wonder where they'll exit?

Ah Bengs

“Ah Beng’, a term commonly used to describe a particular group of Chinese men in Southeast Asia, particularly Singapore and Malaysia. These Chinese men are usually spotted at crowded places during the day time, and when night falls, they are usually hanging out aimlessly at clubs or around the suburbs doing nothing constructive.

Ah Bengs are typically loud and foul mouthed. They speak local slang and are well known for their excessive use of vulgarities. They are also often stereotypically portrayed to be anti-intellectual, showoffs, ill-mannered, bad-tempered and lowly educated, hence leading to a lack of culture and involvement in crime, though to what extend is debatable.


When it comes to fashion, Ah Bengs generally go for flashy and trendy clothes. They are also well known to spot long and dyed hair. Ah Bengs can be seen smoking all the time while flashing their prominent tattoos.

Ah Bengs usually travel in rides which look something like this. Intensively modified Japanese cars to mimic the “sporty” look with stickers pasted all over. Most of the time, an Ah Beng is a gang-banger, or at least has some form of friendship or association with street gangs. They are also noted to date girls who are much younger in age so as to feed their dominating ego.

Despite being viewed as a social eyesore to many, they are not totally without good. Most Ah Bengs show filial piety, unlike those highly educated assholes who kick their parents out. They tend to make good friends as they usually don’t walk out on friends in times of need. In some instances, they also prove to be better boyfriends since they seem to bring their girlfriends everywhere they go, unlike those “Kandang” clubbers who flirt around outside their relationship.

White Lies

Jesus Christ, a.k.a. Lord, God the Son, Savior, Redeemer, Son of God, Messiah - The one *Man* whom millions pray to, whose existence changed the lives of even more during and after his earthly time, including mine.

What I am going to write about, would probably change the opinions of many towards me. To think of it, I bet there are gonna be some hate mails too. If you take offense in the convention being challenged and have a problem opening your mind to new truth, you should probably leave this blog.

Now, when we say Jesus, a face somewhat like the one here comes to our mind. After all, most drawings of Jesus are somewhat similar too. Though it is widely accepted that Jesus was of Jewish heritage, most drawings of Him look uncanningly Aryan. That's the best proof that the Aryans (Whites) have by far been the most successful in claiming Him. The Negro (Blacks) try claiming Him too. More recently, even the Hans (Chinese) started claiming him as well... Everybody wants Him to be of their own race, and no I ain't kidding, take at the look at the evidences below:

The most common White Jesus

Black Jesus as seen in Africa and Negro churches.

The Last Supper - Chinese version. Told you I wasn't kidding!

Sad to say, most of these images are historically and scientifically incorrect. The longer I research into the heritage of Jesus, the more it points to one direction - that Jesus was a dark-skinned *Man*.

Biblical Aspect
Noah’s 3 sons:

Shem's descendants became the Semitic peoples who settled parts of the Arabian Peninsula, including what is now Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Jordan, Israel, and Lebanon. They were generally brown-skinned and the languages they spoke included Arabic, Hebrew, and Aramaic (Jesus' native language).

Ham's descendants became the various Black people who settled down in the African continent and parts of the Arabian peninsula.

Japheth's descendants settled in Anatolia, modern Turkey, and from there moved into the Caucasus mountains of Western Russia and from there settled Europe and Russia. They are the ancestors of the Caucasians.

But dear Jesus came from a lineage of Shem and Ham.

Logical Aspect
Soon after Jesus was born, Herod is said to have sent his soldiers to find and kill Him. To hide the baby Christ, His family fled to Eqypt. But pre-Arab Egypt was a dark-skinned society (as evident in hieroglyphs). Wouldn't it be foolish for a white family to hide a white baby in a black society? Who the hell were they going to cheat?

When the Romans were trying to capture Jesus, they needed Judah to kiss Him as a form of identification. If Jesus were fair-skinned, then He would have stood out among the dark-skinned people. Wouldn't that be obvious enough? Why was an identification needed?

Scientific Aspect
In April 2001, a research was conducted by a team sponsored by BBC. Forensic and archaeological techniques were used to reconstruct how natives of Jesus' origin looked like based on a 1st century Jewish skull.


Historical Aspect
Before White artists rose to power in influencing the people's mind, early drawings of Christ and his disciples already existed. These drawings, clearly show a dark-skinned Messiah. Here is one of the earliest found in Rome, and perhaps also one of the most accurate to how Jesus should have looked:
One who bears Middle Eastern facial features, yet has the skin color of a historically dark-skinned race. It doesn't really look too far from how a descendant from the lineage of Shem and Ham would have looked.

If you still think Jesus was a pretty blond boy with fair skin and perhaps blue eyes, then you're just telling yourself another God damn white lie...

Purpose of Life

For centuries, philosophers have contemplated and debated over what is the purpose of life.

Answers changed gradually over eras, here are some common answers from people of today:

• To survive
• To find happiness
• To seeks wisdom / knowledge
• To fulfill certain destined duties
• To have fun
• No actual purpose
• Study, work, get married, have kids, raise kids, retire, die.
  

Personally, being a spiritual Christian, I strongly believe that every individual is here for a reason. However, due to the gift of freewill and the influence of modernization, most people never did live, or even discover their purpose.

We are shaped by experiences through life. For instance, a faithful lover may turn into a flirt after suffering at the hands of too many unfaithful partners. A criminal may religious after being in jail. Lousy examples? Well who cares as long as you get my point...

The world we know today is filled with the snares of sin and temptations. Materialism corrupted this world, our worth being judged by wealth and lust consumes our mind as frequent as we visit the restroom, or even more. Not to mention that people today are more interested in earning money, partying and getting laid rather than having philosophical or spiritual contemplations.

In short, virtue and morality are being replaced by twisted modern theories.

So how does one find his purpose in this corrupted era? One has to look deeper, not externally but internally. Whatever it may be, one thing's for sure - it's definitely not in the sin-fueled modern parties...

Boxing Styles

A conversation with someone some time ago but I can't remember who...
(Christof) (Some dude)
"What do you do for leisure?"
"I like sports."
"What sports do you do?"
"Boxing,"
"What else?"
"Sanda,"
"And?"
"Kickboxing,"
"And?"
"Sometimes Muay Thai too,"
"Do you even do anything outside the ring?"
"Yeah, I smoke."
Then came silence...

I'm sure everyone in civilized societies know what boxing is. For those not living in civilized societies, I guess you guys would perhaps call it fighting or maybe the way of life?

Well basically boxing is a prehistoric caveman sport, like what my girlfriend says, I don't deny it. But it's not as simple as putting 2 crazy dudes in the ring and make them beat the shit out of each other.

No two boxers fight in identical style. A boxer's style starts off with what he is being taught or has picked up in practice but gradually evolves with experiences and preferences to suit himself. Nonetheless, many terms are used which broadly to classify them.

Allow me to introduce some boxing styles:

Out-Fighter
Classic boxers who maintains distance between themselves and their opponent. They throw faster, longer range punches, most notably the jab. These boxers control the fight by using their jabs to keep their opponent at range, and using fast footwork to evade any opponent that closes in. They are often regarded as the best boxing strategists due to their ability to control the pace of the fight by wearing their opponents down gradually while exhibiting more skill and finesse. Out-fighters tend to win by decision or points.

Boxer-Puncher
A boxer-puncher is an out-fighter who has heavy fire power in his punches. They use the same hit-and-move tactics of an out-fighter, but instead of winning by decision, they tend to wear their opponents down before scoring the knockout. For a fighter who uses this style to be effective, he needs to have good footwork, stamina, endurance, jabs and/or leads, and good speed and power.

Slugger
A slugger is basically one who goes berserk in the ring throwing a storm of punches and going all out on offense with little or no defense. Many sluggers tend to lack mobility and have difficulty pursuing fighters who are fast on their feet. They prefer a more stable stance from which they may throw the harder, slower punches and tend to drop combinations. They may also have a tendency to load up on their punches by pulling back the arm before throwing the punch.

In-Fighter
In-fighters stay close to their opponent, throwing intense flurries and combinations of hooks and uppercuts. A successful in-fighter needs a good "chin" because this usually involves being hit with many jabs before they can maneuver close to the opponents. In-fighters are generally shorter and has less reach than his opponents, thus being most effective in a close distance where the longer arms of their opponents make punching awkward.

Bob-and-Weave Fighter
Since in-fighters are generally short, many utilize their stature to their advantage, employing a bob-and-weave style by bending at the waist to slip underneath or to the sides of incoming punches. Unlike blocking, evading an opponent's punches disrupts his balance and permits a counter before his extended arm is being pulled back. Some bob-and-weave fighters have been known for being notoriously hard to hit.

So now, which style do I belong to? Those who know me well enough should know... :)

Christian Clerical Clothing

Let me share something about priest clothing today... Before I begin, if your idea of a priest looks something like this:Then we're probably not communicating on the same frequency... Now, wipe that picture off your mind! What I'm talking about is this:
Apparently many people, including Christians (shame on you) don't know the differences among Christian clerical clothings. In fact, they don't even know its official name. "Coat", "robe" or whatever you call it, is actually called a cassock. Repeat after me, CASSOCK... And the white "thing" around the neck is simply called a clerical collar.

Now let me introduce you the various types of cassocks and collars. First, we'll go into the cassock:

Roman cassocks are usually single-breasted with a series of buttons down the front. Traditionally, a cassock has 33 buttons to signify the number of years in Jesus' earthly life. In today's context, it is NOT necessary to have a specific number of buttons. However, most still choose to have a number that has certain religious significants (eg. 12 buttons to represent the 12 apostles). It is not uncommon for a Roman cassock to be worn without a cincture.




Anglican cassocks on the other hand are double-breasted, fastening at the opposing sides near the shoulders. They are more nearly always worn with a cloth cincture and generally have 39 buttons signifying the 39 Articles of Religions instead of 33 in the Roman style.

Roman cassock (left) vs Anglican cassock (right)

A Tab-collar shit resembles a standard dress shirt, but with a smaller collar. The collar either buttons or pins flat against the shirt, and a white strip is inserted to form a small white square. Some priest may choose to use these shirts for non-ritual and daily purposes due to various reasons such as climatic factors and to avoid attracting attention.



Now comes the collars:

A Roman collar has an opening to reveal the inner white layer. The opening rather narrow, measuring around 1/2" to 1" in general.








Though similar in design, Anglican collars have openings significantly wider than their Roman counterpart, with widths usually 1 & 1/2" or wider.








The Christians Brothers adopted another style called the "Brother Collar". This style does not spot any opening but reveals a little trim of the inner layer at the top.








Though also worn by Catholic priests, Protestant pastors however may prefer to wear a what they call a "neckband" as the clerical collar is commonly associated with Catholicism.







Preachers Tabs (which can be easily mistaken as untied bow ties), are sometimes worn to identify the preacher of the day. However, they are rarely seem nowadays.
