Why do People Hate Durians?

Well.. in my thoughts.. they hate it because:
1. They want to look 'high-class' that durians are of lower class people
2. They have strong, bad BO. They are afraid that the durian smell will be part of their BO
3. They have bad digestive system, that makes them FART and BURP durian smell
4. They don't flush their toilets -> that makes durian smell all over their toilet bowls
5. They dont want to dirty their hands while holding the durian
6. They are stingy. Durians are costly King Fruits.
They rather pluck free rambutans from other people's house.
7. They dont' know how to open the durian shell (even though the durian sellers would do it for us now)
8. They are aneroxic people, who thinks that eating some Durians will make them fat.

From writing this, I think I would end up offend most of the durian-haters.
Kudos to the durian-lovers.
Btw, I'm not a durian-lover. I'm a neutralist.

Durians are yummy!How can durian be low class when it's the king of fruits and expensive?! The best part of durian is to lick your fingers after eating, much better finger lickin' good than KFC! The only setback is the aftermath of eating... otherwise, it's fantastic!

What's the Difference between 'Net' and "Nett"

Since it's part of my group's job to publish daily billings report to the management, our Director (from US) pinpointed that we should fix the spelling of 'nett billings' to 'net billings'. My colleauge was looking at google, trying to understand the 'right' spelling to be used. I finally checked it from Wikipedia , and found that 'nett' is BRITISH and 'net' is AMERICAN. No wonder he's offended to fix it to 'net'! C'mon. I'm in an american MNC, I should be more sensitive towards this.

Monday Movie Day - Mamma Mia

Finally, after being a nuffnanger for 3 months, I was invited for a free movie at GSC Gurney. Thanks, nuffnang. Again and again. Free movie for 3. Thanks. :D The blogger community was exceptionally quiet compared to the usual cinema crowd. Perhaps, maybe, they only TALK in their blog. I dont' know. Even as we were watching a few minutes of the silent movie, there were not a single 'hoo-ing' or banana-throwing at the screens. I was looking hard to see if I know anyone. I guess it's just 5xmom with her anti-ISA tshirt. Hm.. Somewhat, after watching the movie, I felt that it was just morally so wrong. Am I too rational? 1. How can one has 3 fathers? Shouldn't they do a DNA check first? 2. Does that mean it's alright sleeping with 3 men one after another and get pregnant and raise the child in an island? 3. It seemed ok for the daughter to just call off the wedding. 4. And, the pastor actually solemnized their wedding just like that? They don't even need to att...

An Encounter with Gelatissimo

It was an eventful Saturday afternoon. I had an 'appointment' with Gelatissimo , Gurney Plaza, Penang. I have always wished to try gelatos there (since Lecka Lecka has gone for good) and it's the ONLY store serving gelatos in Penang (I think). There you go.. I'm going to blog on my 'encounter' with Gelatissimo. First and foremost, consumers need to be educated the difference between ice-cream (Haagen dazs, Baskin Robbins, Walls etc) and Gelatos. Gelatos is italian frozen ice dessert and the method of making it is different from ice cream . Basically, gelatos has less cream than ice cream and it has higher density (the molecules are nearer as compared with ice cream). Most importantly, I think the fat content is less as it has more original food as compared with ice cream (usually with articificial coloring and flavours). The friendly staff posing for camera. The girl in spectacles would always asked me if I would like to try their flavours. To be honest, I trie...
