XiaXue hates ‘hate sites’ then makes one herself..

For those of you that don’t care, just skip this entry 🙂 This makes me laugh, seriously. She’s getting dumber and dumber by the day, or more arrogant, not sure which. I haven’t really been following the whole debacle, but the pink poodle and two of her friends (Sandra and Sillycelly) have been having some […]

US to carry out 1,000th execution

US is one of the few countries that still supports capital punishment in the ‘Western’ world. UK still has some laws for capital punishment, but only for very few charges, I think maybe on one, which is planning to or attempting to overthrow the monarchy. Quite a few countries in Asia are of course famous […]

The Sixthseal Issue – Poor HB?

This is pretty harsh..If you want to see a translation of the article (If you don’t understand Malay), you can . Oh wow, look more sensationalist journalism, more picking on someone that has done more good than bad? Let’s look at this a little objectively though, from both sides of the story as that’s what […]

This is not about race primarily, race could be part of it, but the victim could just as easily be Indian, Philippino or Indonesian, would you be […]

Source: Is this good bad or ugly? From personal experience I’ve seen the cops trying to shut down the cybercafes after midnight, but well it doesn’t really happen, they just lock the door, and you can knock to go round the back or they will just unlock and let you in if they know you. […]

Is there such a thing as universal morality?

This is VERY interesting topic which was raised in one of my posts recently[/url] by a very good commenter ‘Tom’, which I skirted over briefly, it’s actually a very deep and intense topic.

My Car Was Vandalised Today.

Yes indeed it was. I was confronted with this, this afternoon when I went to my car to fetch something I’d left inside…Not a nice sight for a Sunday afternoon right? At first I thought this was a case of bad parking, my neighbour perhaps going back to home town early in the morning, made […]

Being Civic Minded and Caring for your Environment and Society

Actually I wanted to post about this topic for quite some time, since I was involved in Project Aware[/url], but I never quite got prompted to do it.
