Does it work?

Wow, The Office (NBC) is one of the best tv series I've been chasing. Been on The-Office-Marathon for the past 2 weeks to increase my office social skills for future use, so far its at season 5 and viewers keep increasing every season. Anyone watching this should try the pranks they do in the office, priceless. This is the US version, the one with Steve Carell aka 40 Year Old Virgin. This prank is one of their best so far.

Jim the office prankster did an experiment on the office idiot which is Dwight. Its by training a dog to salivate by the sound of a bell by feeding them whenever a bell rang. So everytime Jim reboots his computer once a day, you'll have that "Windows off sound", he offers Dwight a mint which Dwight accepts.





Finally after several weeks of conducting the experiment, after he restarts his computer Dwight puts his hand out to accept a mint from Jim without Jim asking. His mouth tastes weird as well haha.


Anyone working in a office should try it to their colleagues see whether after 2-3 weeks they'll put their hands up to accept a mint or candy from you.



-Priceless, haha.

Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels

As a primary school student during the 1990's I wasnt really into movies especially complicated ones. The fact that I was busy playing bumble bee yo-yos, digimon digivice and football during those days, rests my case. After living for 6 months in this hell hole 30 minutes east from London where everything closes at 5pm and there's nothing else to do except watching movies, and there's no movie more entertaining than Guy Ritchie's 1998 film, Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels. I know I'm so fucking outdated but sorry I recently just got to enjoy British movies. Very good scripts I must say and storyline.


-PMS gone wrong.

So far I've been watching Jason Statham movies such as The Transporter which leads me all the way back to Snatch which is a movie part of Guy Ritchie's production. After that its Mean Machine, where I first noticed Mr.Vinnie Jones former profesionnal football player, acting as the lead. So, Guy Ritchie's movie which casts Jason Statham and Vinnie Jones equals Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels.

-Eddie, Bacon, Soap, Tom.

Movies from Guy Ritchie I've watched so far have been complicated at the starting, but by linking different scenes from the film in the end you'll get an awesome finish. His camera angles and effects are some sort different, good kinda different. Like 300 when they start slaughtering.
-Bacon: What's that?
Samoan Joe's Barman: It's a cocktail. You asked for a cocktail.
Bacon: No. I asked you to give me a refreshing drink. I wasn't expecting a fucking rainforest! You could fall in love with an orangutan in that!
Samoan Joe's Barman: You want a pint, you go to the pub.
Bacon: I thought this was a pub!
Samoan Joes Barman: It's a Samoan pub.

So yeah watch the movie, the scene last 2 minute of the movie is fucking hillarious, haha!

-You gotta watch it to understand why. Have fun!

New Updated MSN.

Recently I've just updated my MSN Messenger to version 2009 aka version 14. Previously was 13.something I think. I'm not very satisfied with the new version at all. Overall the new layout is nice, very sleek and it suits the Microsoft Windows XP silver colour scheme very well. But the functions and buttons are either not there anymore or it isnt working.


-Firstly I not too sure whether its my laptop not functioning properly or its MSN itself, but the "open my hotmail" button isnt working at all, I cant open my hotmail after clicking it.

The colour boxes beside the names are the status of the people, green for Available, yellow for Away and Red for Busy. You can adjust them to their avatars as well under the Option function in the toolbar. Not too bad heh.

-Secondly I cant find the "send" button on my conversation window, I have to always press my enter keyboard which I'm lazy to do if I'm comfortably on my bed.

AND WTH? I cant send files and pictures at all! Is it my laptop or the MSN? Tell me somebody, so at least I can curse the proper root of the problems!

Well thats all I can say about the new version. Its like an Iphone, some functions are not fully working and are not available (3G, video recording and MMS) but it looks awesome, haha. Had to blog about this cos there's nothing else on my mind except my 10,000 words thesis and going back to Malaysia eating Dim Sum.... ummm Dim Sum... epic~
