There’s something about An Exercise In Exasperation

Once upon a time, Barneysaurus was on MSN when a friend an acquaintance started a conversation. It went something like this:


He: Eh! Haven’t seen you on MSN for ages! What have you been up to?

Me: Been busy with school. Self-imposed exile from MSN and the internet in general.

Me: By the way, can you return my Adrian Mole? I feel like reading it again.


After five or so minutes:


He: Wah! You are studying now?!?! Where?

He: Happening or not? Any babes to intro?

Me: NTU, business. I try to focus on the books instead of the babes.

Me: By the way, can you return my Adrian Mole? I feel like reading it again.


After another five or so minutes:


He: Sure or not? Never look at girls?!?!? Dun lie leh!

He: You gay huh? Hahaha!

Me: Yah, I’m into guys nowadays.

Me: By the way, can you return my Adrian Mole? I feel like reading it again.


After yet another five or so minutes:


He: Hahaha!


After one or so minute, he went offline.



I am convinced that he’s using a software that filters out unpleasant requests.

I want my Adrian Mole back.

There’s something about Every Thing Is Changing And I Don’t Know Why

After a period of self-imposed abstinence from the evils of MSN, Blogger, and the Internet in general, I was convinced that the world took a turn for the worse in my absence after I saw the following pic in my Inbox.



We are Hello Kitties but we promise not to serve you cat food, heh heh


I tried to tell myself that the madness will never spread to Singapore because we are boring straight-laced, pragmatic, and sensible people. That is, until I found the most ultimate vending machine in the entire universe. Right there in Fort Canning.



I am ultimate! I serve both Coke and Pepsi!


In the same afternoon, I was to witness for myself the evolution of marketing. Last time we had Good Buys. Then we had Best Buys. All these pales in comparison with what we have now:



The most heroic marketing gimmick ever


I am so proud of being a marketing student :)
