Miscellaneous Post

This is just a collection of many small posts.

First up, many thanks to BSYTYCD (Blogging So You Think You Can Dance) for linking to my blog. It has driven the traffic way up to a new high of 654 page views in a single day.

Next, here’s an interesting quote from George Carlin which I found within one of my many feeds that I parse through daily:

The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A Death! What’s that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you’re too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating …and you finish off as an orgasm.

I totally love the idea of dying off as an orgasm; to end at your 高潮 brings to my mind 急流勇退.

This reminded me of a movie trailer which I recently on Apple Movie Trailers section.

The movie synopsis goes:

“I was born under unusual circumstances.” And so begins “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” adapted from the 1920s story by F. Scott Fitzgerald about a man who is born in his eighties and ages backwards: A man, like any of us, who is unable to stop time. We follow his story set in New Orleans from the end of World War I in 1918, into the 21st century, following his journey that is as unusual as any man’s life can be. Directed by David Fincher and starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett with Taraji P. Henson, Tilda Swinton, Jason Flemyng, Elias Koteas and Julia Ormond, “Benjamin Button,” is a grand tale of a not so ordinary man and the people and places he discovers along the way, the loves he finds, the joys of life and the sadness of death, and what lasts beyond time.

This is one movie which I’d love to catch.

  1. hahaha how good is it to go out in glory in euphoria? except that in the unreversed reality…an orgasm is not an universal truth across genders 😛
    guess the quote came from a guy for a guy…wonder what version can be written for a woman? hahaha
    yah i would like to watch this interesting movie…reminds me of a mercedes car ad awhile back about how great life would be if we were born old and we grow younger as we age.

  2. Sp@rrow: Your comments make me think of other stuffs which borders around R21 discussions and I shall not continue. However how can the Supreme Being(s) be so unfair as to create women with less pleasure from orgasm and yet women have to suffer the pain of giving labor? This is something to ponder about… Hmm…

  3. nzj: heyz i wasnt the one who blogged about orgasms in the first place lor. hmm. no need to ponder so hard. i believe the fault doesnt lie with the supreme being but with man he created. not all man are made equal or blessed with equal skills. hence the term fake o. anyway luv the concept of aging backwards. how unfair is it when we have the money but no youth and energy to enjoy but when we are young, we had energy and youth but no money?

  4. Ah… Fake O… It’s quite sad that such thing exists.

    Anyways, I like the irony that you pointed out. That’s something very true which I’ve never considered before…
