hong kong blogs review review

Sorry, been busy. And lazy.

Have just found this though, The Hong Kong Blogs Review page.

He doesn’t like to judge (doesn’t mind stealing from Martin Luther King though):

Here is the bottom line: Hong Kong is Sham-Shui-Po boy’s home where he was born and his forebears were buried and lately have been cremated. He judges his guests on this land not by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their individual character, deeds, behavior, and by their words; as he’d like to be judged if he’s at their home.

but he does like to insult:

Most of these bloggers, for lack of better word, can be described as carpetbaggers of one sort or another.

His guests? WTF? Imagine saying that somewhere else!

Here’s my review of his review page:

If you are nice about HK all the time, know nice places to eat local food, know all about the politics of HK or have married a local, then your blog is good.

However, if you have ever said a bad word about HK, or taken the piss, or talked about your car, or like sex, then your blog is “sarcastic and arrogant”, the “bottom of the barrel” and you’re a “social climber” living a lifestyle that you “cannot afford back home”.

I’m not going to attempt to defend myself, instead, I’ll just point out that referring to yourself in the third person constantly is a sign of narcissism:

The terms “narcissism”, “narcissistic” and “narcissist” are often used as pejoratives, denoting vanity, conceit, egotism or simple selfishness. Applied to a social group, it is sometimes used to denote elitism or an indifference to the plight of others.

Oh hello Mr. Pot!

pole vaulting update

Ooops.

dahrkling

Outrageous!

darling (dahr-ling) (English) - A person very dear to another; one dearly loved.
dahrk-ling (Thai) - Monkey’s arse.

I double checked this with a Thai mate. Totally true.

I’m gonna be listening carefully in future!

private dancer

I cannae get this song ooota ma swede. Might have something to do with the pussy clouds post.

Well the men come in these places
And the men are all the same
You dont look at their faces
And you dont ask their names
You dont think of them as human
You dont think of them at all
You keep your mind on the money
Keeping your eyes on the wall

I’m your private dancer
A dancer for money
I’ll do what you want me to do
I’m your private dancer
A dancer for money
Any old music will do

Anyone seen Saving Private Brian - the Family Guy Episode? Brian and Stewie join the army and get berated by the sergeant:

What’s so funny Private..?! Private Dancer? Dancer for money? Any old music will do?

finally, doris

Soooooo, I’ve finally started working with someone called Doris.

She’s a bit pushy and a bit loud. Will have to see how it goes. I am going to have to ask her to lower her voice, that’s for sure.

Later, I’ll be interviewing someone called Icarus. Ummm, a female. OK then! If she mentions wax or wings in any answer she can get right out. I’d love to do an Ari from the latest episode of Entourage. He has to fire someone who has just had LASIK surgery and is in a room testing what he can see. Ari walks in and says “See if you can read this…”, then writes “Get the fuck out” on the whiteboard.

Not quite as good as his legendary: “Clear your desk, cos you’re motherfucking fired!”

Ah, just checked, full quote is:

Let me tell you something. You don’t have to say anything, you know why? Cause you can pick up all your stuff, because you’re mother-fucking fired!

need to make time

I have so much to write about, just so little time. For example, here are the highlights of the weekend trip to Manila:

Judging the ‘He-She’ and lip-syncing contest
Oil wrestling
The HK$10,000 bar bill
Sexy Roger
Whilst waiting for Doris to arrive: “Is this Doris?” … “No that’s a different Doris, Hey, Doris!” …. “Shit the bed! You know her?!” … “Yeah”
“Hi Shaky, welcome back” from a bouncer I’d never met, at, erm, a less than wholesome bar
“We’ve got Shaky, Rigobert and Gunther in the house…. keep it dusky.”
What am I looking for? “A cross between Ghengis Kahn and Jezebel”
My Total Care concept
Every stone unturned

motivation

The ultimate motivator:

Get that stuff done today, or you can’t go to Manila tomorrow.

FMA it will get done.
