Nothing like a good kick in the groin of health to remind you that you're not immortal. Although since I never took instruction well this has not left a lasting impression on me, beyond strengthening my hatred for the unhygenic manner in which food is prepared in this country.
No oily foods. No spicy foods. What the fuck am I supposed to eat?!?!?!
I've been suffering from Final Fantasy Postpartum Depression. Now that the game is over all thats left to do is complete my collection and fight Omega. I want to collect Espers, but honestly they're so pussified I don't know if I even want to waste my time. Oh well gotta do it, video game addiction is forcing me too.
I'll be changing the power supply in my computer today as well as installing my new CPU cooler. If I don't check back in here after a few days do assume the worst.
I'm not sure if I can make Salty Peanuts III's birthday party. I made plans for Friday and am open for DotA Saturday morning. I think that might not happen though because of the party. So I guess that its most probable that I'll just stay in KL and work on my applications this weekend, I need a rest after the last weekend of spewing.
Oh yes, so we once again have another case of a dude that converted to islam and then converted back to christianity and had his name and IC details changed to match it...and is now dead. However the islamic authorities don't wanna release his body because they insist he is muslim and that the details in his IC don't matter and are irrelevant. What worries me is that these people are ignoring Identification Card details now. It doesn't matter if your card says your hindu or christian they can come up to you and tell you you're muslim. Sounds like it to me.
Que the politicians chanting "Sensitive Issue" and "Beware May 13th" etc. etc.
Of course I'd say hey, the dumbasses wanna give me a free funeral? Go right on ahead, everyone know I'm not a muslim anyway let them waste money on my corpse. Still religion is a funny thing, the man is dead and gone yet his family is fighting to have his rotting sack of meat put into the ground with appropriate verses chanted in the process?
Religion is a personal matter, I don't understand how any idiot can believe they are able to control people this way. I also don't get idiots who let their practice of religion be controlled by anyone besides themselves. Let this be a lesson to all of you out there. Never EVER convert in this country. Nothing is wrong with islam per se, nothing more wrong than any other religion. But in Malaysia converting is a one way ticket to massive problems for yourself and your family. It doesn't just limit itself to how you're buried, even your distribution of assets upon death is in danger.
If you want to get married to a muslim but both of you are open minded and don't really wanna get all religious, leave the country, run for your life and move somewhere else. Naturally Iran might not be your first choice for immigration. There's just too much intereference from the bloody 'authorities' here. If I was in the evil, morally decrepid western societies I could be any religion I want and when I die I can specify how I wanna be buried or let my family decide. Heck I could be a lifelong bhuddist and get buried according to orang asli rites if I felt like it.
You don't get that here. In theory you do until you join 'the club' then your life will never be your own, nor your own flsh and blood. Don't these people get it that this kind of attitude just makes their religion less palatable to everyone else. Sigh.
