The month of May is a month of disaster. On 2 May 2008 tropical cyclone Nargis hit the coast of Myanmar and devastated large parts of the low-lying Irrawaddy delta. Close on its heels on May 12, a devastating Earthquake rated 8 on the Richter scale, hit Wenchuan in the Sichuan province of China. Both of these natural disasters caused widespread destruction. And they should have brought those of us who are unaffected to reflect on our lives and how fortunate we are, and consider what we can do to help them.

Unfortunately, that is not the case. It appears to have brought out the best, and yet the worst of the human race. I will not talk about the tragedy of the people of Myanmar and the inhuman actions of the military junta, as they have been written about by many others (examples here: [1], [2], [3]) and I will look out of my depth, * erhem * shallow, talking about such a thing.

In fact, considering Singapore’s position as chair of ASEAN, and Singapore’s current political stand – if you even call that a stand – on this matter, is there even any meaning to talk about it? But here are some of the other sickening random examples of ‘personal disasters’ I wanna talk about:

Liaoning girl’s insensitive remarks about the earthquake
The video is found here, if it hasn’t already been taken down for its offensive content.

I saw a few postings on this matter and I had no intention to look at it as I originally considered this as probably some kind of cam-whoring or whatever. Just like Xiaxue has done with the iPhone review she did. But then I start receiving enough copies of them from my friends that I decided for myself I need to see this.

There’s no finer specimen of a selfish little muthafxxking bitch than this. Hearing the tone she used is irritating enough, the video with her crossing her arms and saying all that in miffed indifference is enough to make one’s blood boil just half way through the video. Had I been able to punch her through my screen I would have done it.

Damn! Even prostitutes from Sichuan working in Guangzhou have more decency and last I read on tabloid (or maybe china.com itself), some of them donated a million Chinese dollars to their fellow countrymen in Sichuan. Condemn these prostitutes for their sexual immorality for all I cared, but at least they still have what it takes to be a human being, compared to this little bitch who cared nothing about her stupid little TV programs and nice colors on the Internet pages.

Frankly, go get some psychological help, bitch. (老实说，小母狗你快找个精神医生帮忙吧！)

Sharon Stone on ‘Karma’
The video is found here.

I would like to ask Sharon Stone, is 9-11 karma as a result of America’s bias towards Israel in the Middle East? And guess what, I am quite sure I will be demonised and called an absolute bastard along with an assortment of bad words if I did that. And for some odd reasons it suddenly reminded me of Senator Obama and Reverend Jeremiah Wright.

Anyway, I was so upset when that was exactly what someone told me when we were on the topic of the WTC attacks probably several days or weeks after that incident. Basically, I will no longer call the person a friend, and I no longer give a flying damn if he gets pushed out of the airlock of an airplane 30000ft up in the air. That, is the extent of my disgust to that statement.

So, serves you right, Sharon Stone, when I read that you probably lost S$80 million worth in contracts as Dior or whatever retract your advertisements in China. I guess that S$80 million would mean nothing to you, Auntie Sharon… and you can always go try do a Fatal Attraction 3.0 to make several times that money back. But I would sooner watch Elizabeth Taylor reprise her role as Cleopatra with…
* gasp * Ashton Kutcher as Caesar and Keanu Reeves as Mark Anthony!

And as if these aren’t bad enough, another disaster – not on a personal but corporate level – also deserved the honor of specific bashing. And no, it’s not about a particular CEO sleeping with his own employee… because there’s really nothing more to be written about that company which has sunk as low as a sunken hulk in the Mariana Trench.

Vuestar Technologies.
I first read about this case from this post. It subsequently made it to zdnet.

Wow. After Creative sues Apple, after some ad company’s charging bloggers for cashing out, and another forgetting to renew its domain name, just how the hell do some of these local companies always made it to international tech news in a negative light?!

My message to Vuestar, stop hiding and says you won’t sue gahmens or charity organisations. In fact, do this, sue the Singapore gahmen or any other gahmen (best that of China!) if they have indeed violated ‘your’ patent. I am quite sure their lawyers could easily rip you a new axxhole the same way they did to Mr. Peanuts Durai.

In fact, I think these guys, if they can afford it, should hire the same lawyers SPH did and rip Vuestar into small little microscopic shreds. What the hell are you guys thinking, huh? There are better ways to make money decently without trampling on the small guys. I’ll really love to see how Microsoft, Google or whatever drown you in a long, gruesome lawsuit in which you will lose and end up bankrupt!

And I won’t feel sorry for you when it happens. By the way, when you do end up bankrupt and begging on the streets, just make damned sure you don’t let me see you.

PS: There are other random acts of ‘personal disasters’ this month, such as several posts condemning a few ‘elitist pingsters’ which deserved ‘dishonorable mention’ . Fortunately, no specific bashing is actually required. IMO, one of the blogger who did that post has technically ‘self-pwned’ and more or less makes one reconsider anything associated with his employer as well. The incident left me and a small number of bloggers scratching their heads and wondering when this blogger writes in this manner in his personal capacity (i.e. without getting his facts right and then go on to build a non-existing case), then how should we consider articles which are associated with his employer on his blog?

Anyway, I’ll give Xiaxue Xiasuay more credit and respect than this. At least she names everyone she flamed, or at least is very specific who her target is – like some auntie who gave her a stare for not giving up her seat, molesters at the Orchard Road Christmas bash, or the handicapped person who gave her friend a piece of his mind.
