Thursday Night Rant: What's all the fust?

I think my English is pretty decent lah, but I was completely stumped when I got this on my astro:


FUST FOR LAUGH? What the? So I keyed in the word on dictionary.com...

\Fust\, v. i. To become moldy; to smell ill. [Obs.]

So, this show is about "to become moldy for laughs"? Hahaha! By God, IT IS funny!

So there, we all learned something new today, huh? Even if it was entirely based on a typo...

2 Things That Really Made Laugh Today

CIMPENG MANA??

I was looking for an empty space to park my car at Bangsar when suddenly there's a knock
on the glass

"Encik ah..tanya sikit ah..itu Chimpeng mana ah..?"

"Apa?"

"Chimpeng, Chimpeng...saya sudah tanya itu guard ah.. dia cakap sini ada satu Chimpeng..."

"Sorrylah Apek. Saya tak tau woh...Apa tempat itu Chimpeng?"

"Aiyah...itu Chimpeng balu punya..Saya mau pigi angkat wang la..."

"Tarak tau la boss. Itu kedai ka apa?Along ka?"

"Chimpeng bukan kedai ma..lu itu pun tak tau ah..? itu Chimpeng macam ituMaypeng, Public Peng, RHetB Peng...itu balu punya Peng.."

Adoi..buat aku pening je..dia actually cari CIMB Bank

Oh Tiger!


By the time he ends his career, Tiger Woods would most probably be recognized as the greatest golfer ever.

But here’s a title I can give the man right now…
THE MOST PUNNED ATHLETE OF ALL TIME

Yup, Tiger Woods is such an unusual and catchy name that editors the world over have not grown tired of punning his name each time he makes the headlines.

But it’s become all too predictable now that I feel Tiger should come up with a new nickname pretty soon (like Shaquille O’Neal who probably has 42 different nicknames) to avoid being punned for the rest of his life.

Anyway, where there’s Tiger, there’s a pun. Just take your pick:

Tiger lurking

Tiger burning bright

Tiger roars

Tiger claws out of trouble

Tiger in the hunt

Tiger in the woods

Toothless Tiger

Tiger ready to pounce

Tiger sharpens his claws

Year of the Tiger

Tiger mauls rivals

Tiger losing stripes

Tiger’s cub arrives

Thursday Night Rant: Pussies Don't Roar, OK?

Saw this ad in yesterday's The Star...


Roar with the Tigers? What?

Are we talking about the same "Tigers" that conceded 12 goals in 3 games, scoring only one? The same "Tigers" that act like mere pussies when thrown into the ring?

Are we even watching the same tournament here? Sheesh...

Are you ready???

In less than 25 days, this new New Media thing that I’ve been working on for the past 6 months along with a jolly band of experts will be grandly launched.

I have only two words. Woo. Hoo.

And yes, it’s an entirely new brand with logos and stuff that will change the local New Media landscape. (You can choose to be impressed at this point)

Here’s a little teaser…

17 Things I Hate

Inspired by this brilliant piece on ew.com, here's my own list of stuff I can't stand in local showbiz and pop culture:

1. Hosts and presenters who go “aaaaaaaa”. Example: “Aaaaaa, sekarang kita ada Amy Search. Aaaaaaa.” Stop it already!!!


2. How the super rich portrayed in Malay dramas always live in 6-storey mansions that look exactly like Yusof Haslam’s house.

3. Obviously gay celebs who go on talkshows and say people shouldn’t judge them for being single ‘cos they just “haven’t found the right person”.

4. How singers are always asked to “nyanyi sikit” when they’re interviewed on TV. After which the host will then say “Aaaaaaaa, tu dia.”

5. Talent reality show judges who say, “No matter what happens in this competition, you’re going to be a star.” Um, no they won’t. Remember Rosma? Zarina? Or even Felix? I rest my case.

6. This guy auditioning for anything...

7. Local entertainment journalists’ who are always “terperanjat” by the disgusting behaviour of some artistes. The fake naivety is equally disgusting.

8. The word “artis” itself. Even backup dancers call themselves that now.

9. The word “diva” as well. Even backup dancers call themselves that now.

10. Entertainment rags with barely legal boys posing in swimming pools.
11. Catchphrases. Overdone and so over 'em.

12. People who look like this trying to relate to poor people.

13. Celebrity DJs. Especially those who have to look good on Red Carpets when they’re actually there to work.

14. Local producers who rip off foreign shows but call it “coincidence”. Copying is ok, ok? Even Martin Scorcese does it!

15. Totally made up names. Like “Brancy”.

16. Songs with the line "Hanya satu yang ku pinta".

17. Siti Nurhaliza pregnant rumours. She's just getting fat lah...
