The story of a giant tangerine llama

One day a giant tangerine llama died very suddenly. The FBI said that it was an act of aggravated llamacide. However when the llama shot his friend with a magnum, which was melting and hence un-fatal; a falling cow suddenly noticed that he was falling into a deep orgasm which was cut short by Boutros Boutros-Ghali. "Argh!!!" screamed the tank, after it crashed into a brick wall. The bricks showering a small yellow tortoise. The tortoise said Golly Gosh! What in God's name are those bricks made of, they hurt so much. It turned out hidden deep down in the bricks there was a random piece of elephant poo. Suddenly A llama exploded leaving a messy stain all over his crotch, which looked quite incriminating.

Should I get that? It looks really nice.

1. Should I get that? It looks really nice.

2. I personally think it's ugly but it doesn't mean it's cute though!

1. Ok, what about this one then in grey?

2. Much better. The first one looked like someone had a nice vomit all over it, which would be ok if the thing were free but it costs like $250.

3. He's right, the first one is an example of designers gone wrong.

1. So why don't we just forget about it, you guys have no taste.

2. But listen why pay two hundred some dollars for this cheap, Aztec looking piece of Shit?

3. Here, let us find ya some nicer stuff!

2. Dude why you caught up in the big names that cost the big dollars and ain't even that nice?! Tell me when you're dead how much will that shit mean?
Absolutely nothing, not a thang! Got a ring? Got a chain? Got a brain?
Use it and stop buyin all these crappy shits that are just useless. Seriously though why would you pay so much for one fucking piece of goddamn clothing? Huh? They were all extremely gay!

3. Ya...That first thing looks like it came from QVC's Home on the Range segment.

1. Wow I need a lesson in fashion apparently! How about this one?

2. Yesss...You finally got it but we're sure you do realize there is a cockroach shit on that shirt!!!

The Starfish people

Today, I went off to the edge of my universe, and I slipped on a big piece of Plutonium fuel rod and I fell in love with Kylie Minogue. If my mother was here, she'd rip John Major's cardigan in a heated tin of beans fighting about the nature of the weird and wonderful world of the Starfish people. Surprisingly enough, the starfish people were sent to seek guidance from the fairies with small magical silver inscribed vibrators which they use to purify someones soul. However, the Pope said to hand them over unless they were using them to entertain their young cute furry little gerbils. The next time they could find some batteries they arranged to hire the mafia to take care of those troublesome Popes. Following this the UN security chimpanzee, called for witnesses to testify in tortured confessions involving the penguins Beak. This was to no real avail. However, inserting cucumbers down Mexico way makes tequila worms slide easily along an open wound. Give my remains to Keith and Johnathon.

Mended / Marc anthony 2002

Mended :: She Mends Me

Look at me
I'm not the man I use to be
When she smiles at me
I live the light I use to see
There she goes and I know from my own
I'm not home
Can't believe she can't see
That she's taking the best part of me
I'm half a man with half a heart
With nothing left to tear apart
Half of me is walking around the other half is on the ground
She Mends Me
Whats to see I had it all in front of me
It's all on me who lived the name of vanity
There she goes and I know
Can't believe she can't see
That she's taking the best part of me
I'm half a man with half a heart
With nothing left to tear apart
Half of me is walking around the other half is on the ground
She Mends Me
Tell me where I am
Nothing else can replace her
How do I go all the way I am
I'm half a man with half a heart
With nothing left to tear apart
Half of me is walking around the other half is on the ground
She Mends Me

"Persepolis" by Marjane Satrapi

"Persepolis" the first of its sequel is a magnificent graphic-novel both written & illustrated by "Marjane Satrapi".
It just happened to get "Persepolis" quite luckily last night & finished it today & it was great.
"Persepolis" is the story of a typical -quite contemporary- Iranian childhood.
(Needless to say but it actually even made me cry on its last page.)



"Persepolis paints an unforgettable portrait of daily life in Iran: of the bewildering contradictions between home life and public life and of the enormous toll repressive regimes exact on the individual spirit. Marjane's child's-eye-view of dethroned emperors, state-sanctioned whippings, and heroes of the revolution allows us to learn as she does the history of this fascinating country and of her own extraordinary family. Intensely personal, profoundly political, and wholly original, Persepolis is at once a story of growing up and a stunning reminder of the human cost of war and political repression. It shows how we carry on, through laughter and tears, in the face of absurdity. And, finally, it introduces us to an irresistible little girl with whom we cannot help but fall in love."



I'm a great fan of hers now & am looking forward to get the 2nd book "persepolis 2".
Once I finish reading the 2nd book, I'll put up my own opinion about "persepolis" on here.

Just in case if you're going to buy her books, you can try Amazon.

"Pitch Black" the movie

Although it was a crap movie but watching it wasn't that useless as it gave me these catch-phrases or I can better say I pulled these quotes out of it:

1."Trees mean water."
2."Did you runaway from your parents or they ranaway from you?"
3."I'm not your f*cking captain."
4."But this is just not gonna work."
5."Stay in the light."
6."We're f*cking disposable."
7."Did not know who was f*cking with."

When Evil is destroyed by another kind of Evil.

"Hurricane" the movie

The other day I was watching the movie "Hurricane" (1999) -based on a true story- starred by Denzel Washington who played Rubin “Hurricane” Carter, a professional boxer who was convicted of murder and then freed years later after activists worked to prove his innocence.

Here's its catch-phrase or my favourite quote of it:

"If hate put me in prison, love's gonna bust me out of it."
