SEPET

I seldom talked about this with other people because I don't want to come across as being racist but I think it's an interesting issue to blog about.


Whenever I met new people they always thought that I am Chinese because of my physical appearance, but the truth is I'm 100% not Chinese (although if you do some phylogenetic test or something it might be possible). I don't have problem with being mistaken as Chinese but the problem is the communication part. You see, they assumed that I speak Chinese so the next thing that happened is .... huh, awkward !!! These happened every single time, if I met a new Chinese person for the first time and he doesn't talk to me in Chinese that will make me happy.

That's not all, there's this incident in the airport where I was held by customs and were asked to used the green lane so they can check my luggage because they assumed that I'm a tourist from Macau.

Here's one more, when I was doing my internship in a local institute, one of the staff there talk to me in English because she assumed that I'm a Myanmar student, which at first I thought was kinda normal and I only found that out when she asked me about the education system in Myanmar.


The list goes on and on, and one time people thought me as "Mamat Siam" (Thailand Guy, suddenly Ong Bak comes across my mind).

I'm not gonna change my appearance though so I think maybe I should take Language class and learned a bit about all those language people thought I understand.

Sayonara

P/S: I'm not racist, just a fan Asian Celebrities

Oh Hell No ! Are we pedophiles ?

This is a facebook-related news. Before I begin I want to present to you two facts that are related with what I'm going to blog about.

Fact #1 : On December 6 recently, there was this huge facebook-wide thing going on where people on facebook have to changed their profile pictures to cartoon characters in order to give homage to abused children.

Fact #2 : This is from one of my facebook friend:

*URGENT*Did you know that the group asking everyone to change their profile picture to a cartoon character is actually a group of pedophiles?They're doing it because kids will accept their friend request faster if they see a cartoon picture. It has nothing to do with supporting child violence, it... was on.TV and it's ...on tonight's news..Put this as your status to warn people and have them change their picture back.
Which one do you think is right ? I seriously think that both thing is bull-crap. The first one tells you that by changing your profile picture you are actually supporting against child violence, I didn't buy that although I have a few cartoon profile picture in my album. This is just something viral that people started like the Spongebob! Patrick! Squidward! thing.
facebook killed spongebob
The second fact is sort of creepy, I mean this can be real and if it's all over the news, why didn't I heard about it but, we never know. 
"It all started in facebook"
UPDATE : Fact #2 is actually a hoax. I've knew it !

Fatter, Longer and Happier

I want to lose some of my belly fat this holiday but I don't think that's possible. So I was like, let's hit the gym and gain some muscle mass.

Then I saw this article


Good news to all chubby fella out there, being fat is not a bad thing at all (at least in the sex department), apparently a study has shown that people with extra lipid in their body lasts longer in bed because they have more estrogen then leaner men who regularly hit gym.

Bad news to ripped abs gym freaks, most of you guys will eventually suffered from premature ejaculation, what's a PE ? Hit the wikipedia !

"F*** you , good luck with your ejaculation !!!"
I'm having doubts about this research tho' like why do they do this research in the first place anyway ? On the bright side this should upgrade the market for my heavier friends,  I mean women want men that lasts longer, right ? ... right ?!

After I read that article I'm having dilemmas, should I hit the gym or should I gain more belly fat ? Now that men can feel more confident being fat, women should feel the same too, well I'm sure the researcher had cracking up something for you girls too . . .

Meanwhile, mom jeans is still a no-no

myspace got F'ed

As I was looking for inspiration for my blog today, I got an e-mail from an old friend - myspace. It was about the new myspace look that's supposed to rivaled facebook.

The first thing I saw was the myspace logo which is 'my______' instead of myspace. Get it ? The ________ should be pronounced as space I guess.

I logged in and saw a familiar environment.

...

I think myspace just got facebook-ed. The new myspace is literary the doppleganger of the facebook that we know now. Is this new my_______ interface supposed to attract back people. Below is the preview of the new myspace interface and the facebook one. Judge it yourself.

" This is the new myspace"
 "This is the facebook we know"

"When in doubt. . . wear red"

I like changing my hair color and I have premature grey hair problem which irritates me.

I want to dye my hair but I don't know what color should I pick, brunette is too safe and I like to have fun with my hair. You guys know I'm a crazy Top Model (The Americans one) fan so I was watching the latest season and saw one of the contestant get a makeover which is a red hair dye job. I was like, wow, that was something..

and then there's Rihanna's new hairstyle, which says you don't have to be pale skin to rock the red hair
and Gerard Way (My Chemical Romance)... and he's pale
 so what do you guys think... ? Can I rock it...

UPDATE: Oh, wait I forgot I already dyed my hair red few years back . . . considering blue !!!

The Sound Of Messenger

Have you guys heard the new Facebook Chat alert sound effect? You know, the ‘bloop’ sound when someone is sending you a message.

They’ve changed it from ‘bloop’ to something that sound different.

Thumbs up to facebook for originality and somewhere in the Yahoo! headquarters the crews in the ‘Yahoo! Messenger’ cubicle are smiling

“Youngsters found ‘magic door’ in their rented apartment”

DESA ILMU, KOTA SAMARAHAN – A group of students that rented an apartment here in Desa Ilmu claimed that one of the door in their apartment is apparently magical.

One of them told thegossipgeek that the door can produce some sort of mushroom, or mushrooms…

“They weren’t there (the mushroom) but as soon as I sprinkled some water and shampoo they started to grow in matter of minutes,” told one of them.

The mushroom that will grow depends on the type of shampoo the door is exposed to, so far it was known that Herbal Essences produces Agaricus bisporus and Sunsilk will produces Volvariella volvacea although this is yet to be confirmed.

It was believed that the door had been made from magical wood which was once located in a forest where a shaman used to live.

Til now the door is still producing mushroom.

Pictures after the jump.

the nastiest name that a soup can get

we don’t celebrate Halloween here so we don’t have Halloween delicacies with a creepy name like tombstone chicken, eyeball lolly, brain wrap, blah, blah something like that.
nevertheless the local here still have the creativity to create a menu so disturbing it makes your gut churned. . .
introducing. . .
Image078

i know, creepy huh. for those who doesn’t know malay, sup jari jemari is literally translated to ‘Soup of Fingers’, means the soup is made of fingers.
well, not really I mean where can they find fingers for that soup unless…
unfortunately, when asked, the shop owner said that the menu is no longer available, i mean, creepy name asides, don’t you think RM6.00 is too expensive for a soup with a God-know-what content in it.

growing up means re-branding

just 2 months ago I turned 21 and 21 is a lucky number for most of us, first, we can vote on election and second we can enter the casino.

this blog has grown up with me and it has its own fan base, although small but it’s still a base, right.

i was thinking to myself why did i call this blog ‘thegossipgeek’, yep!, i was a fan of the show and if you guys notice, when this blog first came out it was a blog where i gossiped about people and talk dirt about them, but unlike the gossip girl i don’t have the anonymity to dish some dirt on other people’s life.

i get a few negative and positive responses, and the negatives always gives me the creep and that’s why almost half of this blog content is either deleted or unpublished because of those negatives thing.

so i’ve been re-branding my blog back and forth and that including my unsuccessful ‘the city’ - where i’m supposed to talk about my experience living in big cities for two months, and i did merge this blog with my other blog and most of them doesn’t interest people as much.

so next year i’m gonna be 22 and i’m going to graduate, so why not be thegossipgeek for another year before jumping into the world of career and job where blogging is almost never allowed. I might not be blogging as much as i do now, besides i' don’t want to get fired for talking bout my work place.

so… cheers for another year of thegossipgeek

LOLO… gossipgeek

Wow i didn't see that one coming...



i don't know if this is true but i think some people assumed that i'm the type of person who can accept any words spoken to my face and guess what i'm not...

when that happened there will definitely be a moment of silence in between the conversation. i mean the words is not that harsh nor sensitive it's just that sometimes people just don't have answer for everything.

a friend of mine was actually asking for tips on what product should he buy, because he claimed that his face is not clean enough i guess... so he was asking for my opinion and my intention was only to help so i told him that he should get [product name removed] because it's kinda good and ok and i'm an user so i know if it's ok or not.

to my surprise, he was chuckling and he said ,"then why can i still see your pore (eventhough i'm not wearing my spectacles)"...

silence...

Whoa!!! I didn't see that one coming so with a red face i think I replied, "it's genetic,"

and he was like "genetic my ass" and continue laughing.

and one of my friend trying to break the awkwardness by supporting my answer, thanks bro...

so that was it, i'm not saying that i was hurt or anything, the moral of this story is sometimes there are certain words that certain people just can't answered and doesn't mean that the word is sensitive, it's just 'no answer'...

BISH PLEASE !

I wasn't aware of the existence of this phrase until I watch Angelea of America's Next Top Model (Cycle 14) fame...

"whut....!"

So what exactly does it mean, I'm not sure about that but according to UrbanDictionary.com, the phrase is something that the brother in the hood or something equivalent to that said when they heard someone saying something stupid...

For example;

Benifa : I study like all day all night...
Brother in the hood (or something equivalent to it): Bish Please !

What we can tell from the dialogue above is, that the Miss Thangggg called Benifa is actually a lazy bish and that's why the brother said the phrase Bish Please ! when Benifa told 'em she's been studying. Get it?

Bish please can also be a verb, something that you do if you hear someone say something stupid, nonsense, etc.

Kinda hard to explain how this thing works, I just let this picture conclude it all...


If that's a little bit unclear, hopefully this one will explained it...


Now you know how to do the "Bish Please!" look...

Douchebag alert !

I guess this type of scenario happened everywhere in a working space which is people with higher position acting douchey (acting like a douchebag) towards people in lower position.

I’m going to talk about my experience with this type of people. I was in this room with my friends doing something for our project and there was this guy and obviously he’s someone who is older than us and also in higher level of education.

We were doing our thing and suddenly he came to us and in a totally unexpected ways he was telling us to back off because he wanted to do his work there, like in a totally harsh ways of telling people.

Feeling devastated but we have to back off because we were actually in his room where he is the authority so… backing up, that’s what we’re doing. I understand perfectly if that was his personality and I suspected that he got some sand stuck in his vajayjay or something but then I was wrong… he was doing that kinda act to show that he’s the boss.

We were in the room again continuing our work after he stopped us and now our big boss is with us which is in higher position than the douchey guy previously. The guy wants to use the thing that we’re using again but this time he have to face the boss. Unsurprisingly he was as delightful as a cake when he was talking to us, so the conclusion is this guy is actually a douchebag, who was trying to make people lower than him miserable.

Imagine having to face him on daily basis, that’s tough! I just wish we could hang out or something but I guess we won’t.

This is why all the LAN cable port is damaged !!!

I am one of thousand users that access the net from my campus' library and now I found out that most port can't be used because someone (or something) has pulled it too hard to the point that it can't be used any longer.

So, today (on this day this was posted) I happened to catch one of the culprit, which I'm sure there were many and take a photo.

I'm not gonna put her (there! I said it, the culprit is a girl!) face in this blog but I just hope everyone take good care of the facilities here because there are many people using them.

Backin Up ! Backin Up !

I know this is old news but I just wanna share this with u guys...

When I'm telling something to others I like to give the story a little twist, exaggerate it, add something, with my voice, my facial expression and some body language and I thought I was good at it until I saw this lady, is it the coffee or what, I don't know...

This incident happened in Kansas City, where two robbers enter a Shell Station and try to rob it, and they are ordering the peop... wait, you can hear the rest of the story from this lady...



yes... yes... yes... I know she's a drama queen.

And just like Antoine Dodson, this lady get auto tuned by The Gregory Brothers.



this song is in Billboard Hot 100 chart...

They ruined Nescafe 3 - in - 1 ! ! !

What ! What ! What !

They ruined my favorite beverage, the nasty corporation ... they just have to ruined everything isn't it ! First it's maggi ! Now, nescafe !!! Soon they're gonna ruined MILO !!! Stop them !!!


 "Nescafe and me is like Bella and Edward ... inseparable"

What am I talking about? Have you guys tasted the new and supposedly "improved" Nescafe 3 - in 1? I did and it's bad, what happened to the good 'ol one?

Basically in an attempt to Starbucks-ed the drinks they made the nescafe looked more expensive by putting on some little bubble at the surface and it sucks ! I don't even know the purpose of the little nasty bubbles, maybe they're supposed to give you some tingly tickle when you touch em with your lips and it supposed to give you some 'coffergasm' or something...

They should be focusing on the taste of the coffee not the appearance, and it taste like detergent too (I wonder what chemical is added to make all those bubbles... *wonder*)

If y'all don't believe me here's a picture as a proof that the new nescafe is NAAASTTTYYY...

If my life was a TV show...

like other fame whore i always wished i can have like a TV show, my life is not as interesting as we all see in TV but there are few moments in my life that i thought are reality show worth moment... of course drama doesn't happened on daily basis around me but if there are any TV network want to give me a chance to have my own TV show or made a show inspired by my life here's what I'm going to pitch to them...


  • My 5 years in boarding school...
When I was 13 I was sent to a boarding school far away from my home (200 km is far away, in my standard)... there I learn a lot about life and being independent, I transformed myself with the help of 3 other friends... the show will involve lots of interesting thing like the bully issue (yes, lots of bullies in boarding school), but this show will wrapped up after 5 season because after high school we're going on our separate ways...

this show sounds like...


"oh yeah, sex & the city... bad idea..."

screw it... : - P

where are the gossips ???

as y'all loyal reader know, i haven't been updatin my blog for a few weeks (or months) already, i have lots of materials but unfortunately most of them are offensive (yet funny at the same time) so i can't post something like that, but i think who cares... because controversy is the blood of this blog anyway...

so in this post i just want to tell that i have to remove some of my post because some people have been complaining bout it, so i'm doing what the fans (if i have any) wanted.

so u guys will be probably seeing me again soon with other types of material of course, well despite the name this blog is not only for gossip it's more like a platform for me to rant about stuff(s).

so see you soon...

Bad Hair Days

Back when I was in high school I remember someone telling me this when she saw my legs;


"Euw... guys with hair on their legs are gross !!!"

That girl was one of my friend (and she's in my facebook too !!) and that very incident has an impact towards my perception on what girls think about body hair (or leg hair). Apparently, girls these days are fascinated with men that are shaved and smooth like a baby bottom... seeing men with hairs make them crazy and by crazy I mean vomit-inducing crazy. They just felt grossed out with the fact that men have more hair on their body.

"This turn girls ON !"

After that day my self-esteem become lower than it should have been, I have hair on my body like I was born as the brother or at least cousin of Chewbacca and I swear to myself that from now on I'm going to be hair-free to make sure people won't scream at the sight of me wearing only a hawaiian trunk.

"Ladies, meet my brother... "

The thing that I can get in the young age of 15 is the razor, the two-blade shaving razor. I spend like 6 hours removing what's left of my self-esteem. The result is amazing. My legs looked like porcelain (or maybe not). Then the painful part came, when the hair started to grow my legs is excruciatingly itchy, i started to scratch and when I start scratching my skin break down, Oh f***! ( I literally said it) my skin begin to bleed and I stopped shaving and decided to use...
WAX!!!!

well, not really a wax. it's actually Veet, the shaving cream for ladies. This one is less painful because it melt your hair (look at the picture above...) but to buy that one cream actually cost me a whole month of my allowance, back in the days I don't get to hold that much money.

Then, high school ends so those my hairless legs days, w... wait !!! It's not over... one of the girls in my class was looking at a magazine and guess what she said when she saw a picture of Hugh Jackman... "EEEEUWWW !!!!"

[psycho music in the background]

It's started all over again !!! so after that i went to the pharmacy and buy one of those things that Steve Carell use in the movie "40 Year Old Virgin", the only difference is he got an Asian lady to help him get thru it while I have to do it alone while my roommate is watching (he pretend not to see it tho')

So are girls really concern on the amount of hair a man has? I guess they are...

A House Is Not A Home

it was like a billion years ago since i last posted anything in here, well it happens that the new place I'm staying doesn't have internet connection so that explains the less blogging.


ok so i have given a clue that i am staying at new house apparently i got kicked out of college because i'm not active enough

this new house that i'm stayin in is actually kinda cool and i have my own room and a fridge so it's ok, the only thing that bother me is the fact that i need to pay the rent and the electric and water bill, but that were the only sucks factor and the rest of my time in this house is actually kinda fun.

i'm not gonna tell who my roomate are but they are cool people, and by cool I mean really cool they let me let my dishes unwashed for like several days. not that i'm too lazy to clean up myself but it was the sink that suffered some minor leakage.

ok so the title says it all, the house is not considered a home if you're not happy in it, so right now i'm happy to be in it, that's all thanks.
"Not an actual picture of my house... seriously"

Burger Gone Wrong !!!

Sometimes less is more, looks like these days people want something they shouldn't be getting at the first place for example, big size burger.

Burger King got the Whooper, and recently McD launched the double deal burgers which has extra slice of meat in it and KFC are catching on with their Zingers... we think "ok, wow extra large burger, more value" but what's happening in China in Taipei is actually a warning to all of us - bigger is not better... !

Dentists in Taiwan had been urging fast food chain restaurant to reduce the size of their burger following the increase of jaw injury cause by eating too large burger. The problem increased when people started to eat 8cm burger... amazing...

"literally jaw dropping!"

Paranormal Activity Has A Sequel ???

CROCS ARE FUGLY

I never approved CROCS, I mean it is not stylish and too expensive, I won't spend my money on shoes that will make me look like Ronald McDonald and make my feet smelly. I don't even know why people still love this shoes despite it's flaws...

CROCS ARE UGLY !

Crocs are ugly and that's a fact. It makes your feet look humongous. The shape of the shoes is inspired by the head of crocodile (crocs = crocodile, get it ?) and crocodile is not a cute reptiles. When I look at people wearing this I immediately thought that they are going to 'pasar' or wet market, it reminds me of people wearing those rubber boots ...

CROCS ARE F****** EXPENSIVE
 Crocs are expensive and totally not worth the money, I don't even know why the price is so high when the shoes were only made from plastic. It is not a fashion statement and does nothing to improve anyone's style. Because of the price, fake Crocs (which are way cheaper but 90% similar to the real one) emerged. Can get one in pasar malam and no one can tell the difference actually. So when so many people wore it it makes the Crocs less cool to be worn.

CROCS MAKE YOUR FEET STINKS, LITERALLY !
"Couldn't agree more"

This fact is based on my own experience hanging out with people that wear crocs whether the real or counterfeit one cause they are both equal in the ability to cause your feet to smell like unwashed clothes. This occur especially to people who sweat a lot and after the rain. All those holes in the crocs usually function as a signal to tell the people around you how smelly your feet is...

CROCS ARE HAZARDOUS

Ever saw the 'Crocs' sign on every elevator in new shopping mall? Why not flip flops or sandal, and why Crocs? The reason behind this is because Crocs had caused a lot of accident especially to children. Because of the nature of the shoes, which is rather flexible, the shoes tend to get stuck in the elevator. I'm not lying just Google it to see how many accident had happened in the name of Crocs. 
"OUCH!"

Still considering buying one of these, I don't know but better apply for medical insurance first...

5 Things I Hate About Akademi Fantasia

DISCLAIMER: I am actually a fan of this show but I just thought that this show can be better without all these 'cheesy' factors.

Just weeks after the latest season of Akademi Fantasia wrapped up, and things are not getting better and every season the producer just let the show do some things that makes me think that this show is getting worst ... so here are 5 things that I think can make AF better again if they are banished for good...

5. AFMASUK
AFMASUK is a ticket for those who were eliminated to get back into the competition regardless of how bad they are and as long as they have enough fan to support them the seat is theirs. This tradition is started in Season 2 when Linda Nanuwil was voted off early than fans think she should be, so they drag her back. And seasons after seasons the tradition continues... It's OK to vote in people who really got talent but when they voted in people who really deserved to go home (like the one pictured above) that's when this AFMASUK thing screwed up the whole show.

4. THE FAKE ELIMINATION WEEP
 Every week one of the contestant will be send home after the end of the concert. When a person gets eliminated most probably the person will be the most people devastated but in AF it's not the case, most of the time it's the remaining contestant that will burst to their tears... but believe me it looks 110% fake. After few minutes later all of them will wipe their fake tears and started to waved happily and gleefully like nothing had happened...


3. THE ANNOYING CATCHPHRASE
Every contestant in AF must have at least one catchphrase, here are few example;
  • Mawi (AF 3) - World
  • Stacy (AF 6) - Alamak! Terlebih Sudah !
  • Felix (AF 3) - Susah Susah Aja
  • Faizal (AF 4) - Senyum Sokmo
  • Haziq (AF 4) - HAAZIQQQ....
Yup, look at the last person, Haziq, it must be hard for him to find the most original catchphrase or tagline that he can only used his name...

2. THE LOVE GAME
 There will always be a lovebirds in every season of AF, if there wasn't the producer will try so hard to match make these poor contestants to the level that they were actually end up getting married.

1. ... BUAT YANG TERBAIK !!!!

This phrase, Buat Yang Terbaik will always exist in this show, contestant promised to do their best but end up doing the opposite, they are not even doing the best they could... so guys and gals who dreams to be in AF make sure next time you avoid this phrase what so ever...

Revenge Of The Furries!!!

Recently I've watched another crap from Brendan Fraser, and I really regret spending my RM12 on this movie. It was about a pack of animals trying to get their revenge on the now flabby Mr Brendan Fraser...

"Once upon a time..."
"From fab to flab"
It wasn't about the fact that Brendan F is not as cool as he was yesteryears, but there plot and story line just doesn't work for me and it's as if they were trying too hard to make this movie funny. I'm not a big fan of this type of family comedy. 
One more disturbing fact bout this movie is it's actually a family movie where parents and their innocent kids watch it together, but the scenes where you can see Brendan Fraser running around half naked (in tight and wet white undies) makes you wonder how this movie get past the rating process...

"I'm sure a bear rape scene is included in the upcoming DVD"

Rating: 2 / 5
