note to self:

* t-shirts do NOT function as jackets

* munchies do not make your body warm when walking at night

* sandals aren't closed toe shoes

* coffee that's just been made is hot

these things are obvious, but i look beyond the obvious too much they become concealed.

dante presentation tomorrow and i've still got no clue on what i want to talk about. any idea how to connect dante's paradise to something else?

almost mastered the rhythm guitar for "there will be love there" by brilliant green. good song, good song.

after finished making the review sheet for hum at clics with tiffanie, i went to pots to get something to eat. chicken strips was the only good thing in the menu, so i got myself six pieces. i was sitting on the couch there watching the last 5 minutes of southpark, which was my first time watching. crude humor. blood, cartoon gore, violence, i guess as long as the public likes it. then an episode of a cartoon which name i can't even remember came up, and i was immediately convinced why i have intense dislike for american cartoon.

one is bad drawings. some are good, but some are just plain bad. ok, so maybe that's what they call art, but that's not my type of art, and that's definitely not the type of art that they're supposed to be showing to little kids. two is theme. in making cartoons, they try to be funny. ok, so they were funny, but funny in a non-intelligent way. i was eating the last five pieces of chicken strips and during that period, i saw cartoon characters crapping on tv. literally crapping. one scene i remember was with a skinny old man in the prison who needed to crap and brought a stack of books with him, obviously indicating that it's going to take him awhile. then this massive giant came with an angry face demanding him to leave because he wanted to use the toilet also. the skinny old man then started crapping like crazy until half of his body was buried in crap and the giant ran away scared. the skinny old man then reached his left arm to his ass and took a chunk of poo, then a text appeared that says "DIARRHEA, the best!"

thank heavens those things don't kill my appetite. and that's not the only one; there's a bunch of them, all with the same theme: crapping. one of them even advertised "poo cap" that looks like a little umbrella you use so that people above you don't crap on your head. that is just disturbing. i didn't see anything funny throughout the rest of that one particular cartoon, all i saw was simply disturbing images. are people really trying THAT hard to be funny that they have to use disturbing images to emphasize the point? do people really think being gross is funny? i just don't get it.

if you want something gross that is actually funny, check out shinchan

(by all means, read from RIGHT to LEFT. this is a manga)
