Dammit.

Lost. Again. This time by 6 points. Last time by something like 50 points. Nothing much to say except I screwed up my first few shots. First shot: 8. Second shot: 10. Third shot: 8.

Random Linking Session 2.

Ahh.. Another Session. Theme is "Training". This edition will contain much less "notes".

Well I'm training everyday. My right eye is suffering some some weird variation of lazy eye + computer eye + don't-know-what eye. Closes more oftenly than my left eye and lags. LAGS. I HATE LAG. Especially when playing computer games. That's why I built my own PCs to be top notch (without overclocking) with all the best parts I can afford. I used to play Hitman: Contracts on my laptop at 1/2 FPS. OMFG! On my desktop, with the Radeon X800 Pro (couldn't afford XT Platinum Edition), I play at something like 60 FPS. Also, to reduce lag, we suscribed to a 6500 kbps internet connection (cannot afford 25 mbps version). Lag sucks.

Speaking about lagging, lets talk about Daniel (which one? Shooters would know). Daniel a.k.a super [stammering] man, loves to speak at hyper speed. While many people (who don't know Daniel) will consider this to be of no relation to the theme "Lag", the actual relation lies with the major flaw of this speed he has achieved. Being a ex-super-speed-speaker (ex-S^3), I know very well the problems super-speed-speaking produces. Here is the truncated list of problems I have discovered:

1) Extremely rapid heating up of the jaw.
2) Leads to stammering.
3) Nobody understands you.
4) Friction with the air will cause wear and tear of the chin.
5) Speak faster than you can process the words.
6) Possible suffocation due to lack of air being breathed in.
7) Extremely difficult to insult people when provoked.
8) Lack of confidence.

Obviously, Daniel has already reached the almost incurable "acute" stage of stammering. Problem number 3 is also quite serious. Problem number 7 occurs quite frequently in this case. Also, readers would like to know about the cancellation of problem number 8 by Daniel's extreme narcissism.

Listening to someone who stammers like there's no tomorrow and struggling to make you understand him, might be extremely amusing for a few minutes, an extreme case of boredom might set in. This is especially dangerous when you are on a MRT (train). Because of the extreme case of boredom, sleeping while travelling in a MRT becomes very common. The high lethality of this boredom, coupled with a high dosage, will cause prolonged unconsciousness. At this state of unconsciousness, an individual may be transported to the last stop of certain tracks - Hell.

Imagine this. You are with Daniel. He speaks. Suddenly, an over-whelming wave of drowsiness sweeps you into an uncontrollable deep sleep. When you wake up, you hear the friendly female voice, saying, "Hell. All passengers please alight ----- Hell." The MRT comes to a stop, and the doors open. The unstoppable rush of heat instantly incinerates your skin as arenaline pumps through your veins together with an impending sense of doom.

That was really random. Speaking about doom, have any of you tried Doom 3? The highly acclaimed graphics failed of "WOW" me. I found nothing special with the mediocre graphics, maybe because of the super-dark environments and low-poly looking characters. I think Half-Life 2's graphics far surpasses that.

Half life is a physics term used to describe the degradation of radioactive particles. Am I right? Well I can't really remember, I learnt that in Primary 5! While there is totally no relation between "half life" and "Half-Life 2", this is worth mentioning. Haha.

No more stamina to link. My hands are shaking. Fatigue is weighing my body down. My eye-lids feel like a tera-gram. My muscles feel as powerful as a dead fly. My brain works as slowly as 50 thousand AMD Athlon 64 Fx 57s. LOL!

Lack of conclusion - minus 50 points.

Random Linking Session 1.

Trying out my skills with random linking today. As many of you might know, I'm highly skilled with the respectable art of Random Linking. So what's the rationale of this RLS? The RLS (RANDOM LINKING SESSION IF YOU ARE REALLY SO SLOW) is the brain-child of the ultimate genius (maybe not so) Crappinni (me). At 0108 hours on 04 July 2005, the RLS idea was created randomly in hope of randomly randomizing our already random lives. Without further random ado, today's random theme is none other than "Batman Begins".

Batman Begins. This highly acclaimed movie (NOTE: DO NOT TAKE INFORMATION FROM THIS POST SERIOUSLY UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE) is totally composed of random ideas worthy of praise. I meant the level of randomness. Being praised by the grand master of random ideas (NOTE: STILL CRAP) is actually extremely rare. The randomness and (unfortunately) atrocity of the ideas displayed in "Batman Begins" are highly significant in today's busy society (there you go, a random and completely irrelevant link). Like in the world of shooting, shooters often have to place all the concentration they can muster into what they are actually doing (OMFG another COMPLETELY RANDOM AND IRRELEVANT link!!). Otherwise, they will shoot something other than a bulls-eye, which links (this time it's more relevant) back to the word atrocity (which actually has no emphasis in this article).

The word "atrocity" comes from the root word "atrocious", which is defined as "shockingly brutal or cruel", which completely doesn't fit in this context. This brings me to the topic of "Context". "Context" is defined as "a discourse that surrounds a language unit and helps to determine its interpretation". Without giving a damn about what that means, we shall continue on the topic "Concentration Required in Shooting". As mentioned earlier, the ability to muster a great deal of concentration is a prerequisite to the participation in competitive shooting. The lack of concentration is a highly inhibiting factor to many shooter's potential (NOTE: This is TRUE). Kakorrhaphiophobia, which is commonly referred to as "a fear of failure", is one of the many other factors leading to the ulimate destruction of man-kind (NOTE: COMPLETE BS. However, Kakorrhaphiophobia actually is another factor that inhibits a shooter's potential).

With so many factors, it is apparent that the world is going to suffer a fate somewhat similar to whatever displayed in the movie "A Bug's Life" (NOTE: LOL.. No need to think about the link, there isn't any). With this, I would like to conclude on the first RLS session, themed "Bugs".

Batman Begins. SUCKS!

Those of you planning to watch Batman Begins should read this post and reconsider. The rest of you, you can skip this or read on to see what's so damn bad about it.

Batman Begins. A few months ago when I first knew that it was going to come out, I said to my sister (who was enthusiastic about watching it), "Man this movie's gonna suck." ANDDDDDD I WAS RIGHT!

I predicted the sucking of this movie with a few clues:

1) Super-hero-movie mania was going on. Producers were probably trying to get a quick ride on it.
2) The character "Batman" is just a rich kid with too much time to spare.
3) The previous Batman movies sucked.

And omfg I was right. This movie looked like the producers desperately wanted to get a share from the super-hero-movie mania - and couldn't think of another hero which hasn't been used. To prove the super-hero-movie mania phenomenon, let's list some super-hero movies released recently:
1) Spiderman
2) Spiderman 2
3) Catwoman
4) Batman

Comming soon are:
1) Fantistic Four
2) Superman

OMFG so many super-hero movies! Maybe the success of Spiderman warped the minds of serveral other movie producers. I'm not saying all super-hero movies released after Spiderman will suck, but this one certainly does. Let's get more details...

Plot: Long. Draggy. The first half of the show was bullshit. And the points didn't link.

Take for example the starting. A little boy was playing, fell into an old well, bats gang bang him *FLASH* grown up bloke (who we were supposed to assume he was the future Batman) in a little prison with some nightmare shit. Doesn't link when you watch it for yourself. And nothing does in fact link until in the later part of the movie when parts of the missing links are put into place (when you already long forgotten about them).

Coolness Factor: The suit and stuff were acceptably cool, and the Batmobile was also quite cool but it looked FUGLY! The psychotic baddie was quite cool but had a VERY small role in the movie. The butler was damn cool. Even cooler than Batman himself.

Un-boringness: 0. Super draggy. Sleeping material if you wanted to be critical.

Overall: Suxxor. 1/10. Want more information on why this movie sucks? Tag to request :)
