Just stick one into your kid's butt and see him poop stars!
At first I thought this was some sort of enema syringe for kids, which is a slightly better idea although it's not saying much, but after some googling I found that this is a fictional device for shaping shit.
I'm sure most guys should have heard of Fleshlight. In fact I know one guy who told me he ordered one of those. According to him, the billing company on the credit card bill doesn't even hint at anything sexually-related, and the same goes for the mailed package. Of course he was fortunate that his mum didn't open it when she took it from the postman for him, unlike the case below.
Sex dolls, though, are much less popular, obviously because of their inconvenient size.
My knowledge about sex dolls had always been limited to girl-shaped inflatable floats ( they do resemble those things kids hold on to or wrap around their arms in swimming pools, except those aren't supposed to resemble people), so imagine my surprise when I learnt that today's sex dolls have gone way past that level.
Modern expensive sex dolls are woman-sized statues that have some sort of metal skeleton wrapped in a flesh-like silicone material. As tall and heavy as an average person, they look as real as wax statues and supposedly feel like they're made of flesh and blood, except cold. I believe they have movable limbs too.
However these cost at least US$6000, with the price rising according to the degree of customization requested, eg skin colour if you want a fictional character who isn't yellow, brown, white or black. Just when I thought Fleshlight and Tenga were the state-of-the-art sex toys, I find out about these life-like silicone dolls "with holes in all the right places" called Real Dolls.
(Here's a pic of a completed Real Doll customized to look like a race from Star Wars; it's probably X-rated, R-rated, NSFW, etc etc if you think that doll breasts are obscene)
I have no idea if they are really X-rated because on Youtube there are videos in which they censored it and those that didn't. Other than their faces and elbows, those dolls look almost human to me and in one video, the guy slapped a doll's butt and it sounded pretty real.
Anyway I guess there are worse ways to spend money, like on actual prostitutes.
Imagine combining these with Japanese robotic technologies. Man's new best friend right there.
Not to mention those guys in Japan won't have to marry their DS anymore (BDSR?). Heck, even right now guys like this need a Real Doll shaped like an anime character. It's definitely not the most normal thing to do, but IMO loving a life-like doll is slightly healthier than having a boy-pillowcase relationship (BPR). Probably will cost about US$10,000 or more though, since they're so anatomically different from actual humans.
I think it's easy to see why some Japanese men these days like their games and animes so much that they have to resort to hugging pillows.2060 :(
By then our electricity demands will have risen too much for this to be very useful.
Oh wow, Space Siege was such a forgettable game, I forgot I had completed the game before and played it again. I was thinking that Space Siege was some unknown new game that was just released since I didn't remember seeing it before today when I found it on sale on Steam.
So I got a copy and installed it. It was only when I was about to double-click on the icon that I thought it looked a little familiar. Then I recalled a sci-fi action RPG that I had played a long time ago whose details I almost cannot remember other than it was all about running around and shooting aliens.
The opening cinematics triggered no memory either so I was beginning to be believe that this was something I've never played before. Next I started a new game, which dropped me right into battle immediately. It was deja vu. The environment and camera view was familiar, yet I don't remember the aliens or the skills I began with.
Next came the conversations. It was when the AI began to speak that I finally remembered it. So I opened the skill menu and BOOM! It all came back to me. The available skills and the Humanity level were what confirmed it for me.
Obviously this game was not a memorable one. It's not a bad game but it just lacks that something would leave a mark in our memories.
Can't wait. Screw the gambling. I just want to bash my way in, guns blazing, and rob casinos. Or sneak in and out with the money a la Ocean's Eleven. Also interested in how we're going to save the world in a place like Vegas. I mean, that's like the standard recipe for RPGs, right? But wtf has such human vices got to do with mass destruction?
Watched a live stream of some guy playing Amnesia: Dark Descent. It's the same sort of game as Metro 2033 where you go around in first-person view and explore stuff, except in this game there is no combat. So it's all about solving puzzles and looking around for clues in a constantly dark and eerie setting.
The plot, with minimal spoilers, is that you woke up one day remembering nothing. You find a note nearby that said that you had given yourself amnesia by drinking some magic potion. After that you go on to find out why you did that by looking for pages of your diary that were scattered everywhere in some dungeon-like place while avoiding monsters and insanity. It seems some things in the game can drive you crazy and as your sanity drops, your orientation degenerates such that the screen gets tilted and etc.
Pretty scary actually. Shocked the players I watched on several occasions even though 60-150 people were watching and chatting with them. I could tell the fear was real because one of them couldn't stop talking sometimes to himself like he was nervous while the other, at one point, didn't dare to look back while running from monsters even though everyone was spamming "LOOK BACK!" and " TURN AROUND!"
IMO it's yet another interactive movie, but now I see why they didn't just make a CG movie instead. The difference between these two is that with such games, you can allow the player to absorb the story at his own pace by reading stuff and observing his environment slowly and in detail. In movies you have to direct the eyes towards important things and it is extremely hard to show unspoken thoughts and written notes left behind by people who are no longer around.
So this article is implying that Singaporeans suck at internet security. It may be true. I can't believe the kind of spams I'm getting from my friends because their emails have been hijacked or they may be having viruses.
It's stupid. It's like everyone has cars but they haven't learnt to wear seatbelts and not to stick their limbs out of the windows. Seriously, scan everything you download. Even though it's troublesome, it just takes one single infected file to give hackers free access to your computer and emails.
I still recommend using NOD32 because it automatically scans every file you download. ZoneAlarm is good but I find it to be overly sensitive. Back when I was using it, it caused crashes while playing and installing games because it stopped everything to tell me the games/programmes are doing something suspicious or something like that.
Also, one thing I've observed is that when you are dealing with zip files or rar files, you should scan before and after extraction. Once my scanner picked up nothing until a file has been unzipped. Close shave.
Suddenly the question of "To speak Singlish, or not to speak Singlish?" is revived.
If you feel embarrassed about Singlish, you are feeling embarrassed about your national identity. I'm still agreeing with the view that the first priority is the ability to speak normal English. Speaking Singlish is relatively unimportant but doesn't hurt to use it to fit in.
Getting rid of it would be an overreaction. After all, it is a natural result from the culmination of our history and assortment of cultures. In other words, it is us.
Not speaking proper English doesn't make us less educated, less civilized or anything like that. This view is akin to the view of Europeans centuries ago that all non-Christians were heretics who must be converted for their own good, or the view that African slaves were enslaved for their own good so that white men can show them how to be civilized people.
Personally I don't agree with the slavery part but I think they need to be taught to be better people, or at least be more united. I believe it is their inability to work together that is ruining most of the African continent.
Anyway, I have nothing against Singlish. I just wish we can all speak normal English when necessary.
Opentrolley is having a discount till the 20th of September! Yay!
He's got so much bullshit in this speech I can't believe he's even a pastor with followers at all! For example, he first preaches about the original form of Christianity that followed the Bible literally, then criticizes Islam for, among other things, its oppression. What?! Talk about pots and kettles. :\
This guy defies common sense! He should be repelling believers, not attracting them.
But technically speaking, it probably can be considered right that Christians should see Islam as a Satanic religion. Actually, it's not just Islam but all the other religions that worship deities that aren't Christianity. I mean, c'mon, they've fought for centuries, and tortured and massacred uncountable lives for this very reason. If it really doesn't make sense at all, I don't see how so many generations of people could be convinced by it to do things that would normally have required a lot of motivation.
Surely, the reasoning behind today's Christian's religious tolerance must have sprung up somewhere during those times. Someone must have said something similar, and too few must have listened. Some Christian leaders must have at least got tired of the killing, if not object to it outright, and yet there were over ten Crusades, not to mention other crazy stuff like witch-hunts in which they test suspects, usually homeless women or just normal women who pissed off their neighbours, by drowning them (those who didn't die were considered witches).
By the way a female wizard is not a frickin witch. Don't listen to all the bullshit in the Harry Potter series. A female wizard is still a wizard. A male witch can be called either a witch or a warlock, depending on whether you're into Wicca or Christianity respectively.
