the clusterfuck

I'm not much of a writer. Apparently the internet agrees, or else tumblr wouldn't be the next logical step after blogger, livejournal, and xanga. I'm not ready to abandon blogger yet since I just recently learned how to make everything work, so with complete and utter disregard for your patience, I will be using both for the time being. Thanks.

Also, I really had to beat the other two Donsons to it.

Summer Wars

My friend James recommended Summer Wars to me and I'm really glad he did. This made me really happy. I haven't smiled this much since the ending of Ratatouille.

Whip It

Dammit Ellen, why you gotta be so cool/conflicted/cute?? I liked it. Also Maeby from Arrested Development and Kristen Wiig are in this. I couldn't not like it.

DONSONPOD lives!

Thanks Apple Store Genius Bar!

And here I thought your store was stupidly pretentious for having people make reservations and check in with a bunch of annoyingly hip kids for tech support at a desk called the Genius Bar.

I would've never figured Detlef Schrempf could look like a nice guy. Or an older Tony Hawk.

Formula X

 My dad has been stirring in a fat globs of condensed milk in my Milo for the last 20 years. I didn't know that.

Growing up in Hong Kong, milk was not cheap. My dad would put sweetened condensed milk (interchangeable with evaportated milk) on everything. Milk on toast? Amazing. Your Milo/Olvaltine/Horlicks tasting kinda bland? Add 2 spoonfuls and stir, make amazing. I'm posting about this now because my dad recently shared his secret with me about how to make great tasting Milo. Me and my sister would make Milo the regular way with just powder and hot water. What fools we were.

It's time to leave the house

You know how sometimes you wish something existed, only to find out it already does? This is that.

LOL. I couldn't tell which one was real.

If you have no idea what is going on:

Wikipedia:

 "Juggalo or Juggalette (the latter being feminine) is a name given to fans of Insane Clown Posse or any other Psychopathic Records hip hop group. Juggalos have developed their own idioms, slang and characteristics."

When we first moved to America, this was one of the few Chinese restaurant in the area. Fun times.

Oh...

CUTE

I've had the most mind clearing moments in my life driving on valley at night seeing if I can get to Ontario on surface streets. It also helped that 50 miles an hour felt like 120.


Jalopnik:

The view out the windshield rarely changes, and every gas stop reminds you of the last. It forces you to sink deeper into your thoughts, to pour yourself into your own head. Cities are the exact opposite — there isn't a city on the planet that doesn't become more interesting at night, and it has nothing to do with traffic or stoplight cycles. When the sun goes down, cities reveal their true personalities, bombarding you with the throbbing glow of distraction or the subtle, quiet pulse of sleep. The car allows you to observe all this from a mobile, objective fishbowl, immersed but not involved.
 ...
What does it mean to us? Simple: To drive is to remind ourselves that we are alive, and to drive at night is to remind ourselves, in every sense of the phrase, that we are not asleep. 

more next level shit

Ugh. Wait, it was kinda awesome.

Last night I dreamt I had sold my car and bought something else.

I know I've been reading a lot of Jalopnik, but even then it shouldn't have invaded my dreams. I think this might be a sign that what I really want is ridiculous hoonage. Don't get me wrong, I love my car, but I miss the beast.

This could very well be the world's first Swiss Army Knife. Bearing a striking resemblance to modern multi-tools, it has at least six distinct functions and originates from the Roman Empire circa 200 A.D.

Does this mean I'm a hater? Yes.

reblogged from taiwanderlust :

“The reason our houses are so big (and inefficient)…is we have eliminated a healthy civic life. We build homes with giant foyers because we have no public squares.

We need media rooms because it’s not easy or pleasant to drive to a multiplex theater, cross a parking lot through an ocean of cars, and pay a fortune for popcorn.

We build bars in our basements because there are no neighborhood pubs.

We have giant refrigerators and ever-growing storage needs because shopping is both far away and unpleasant (hello, Costco).

The result? We heat and air-condition unused rooms in oversized unpleasant houses. And because our home bars and foyers are empty and our media experiences private, we’re lonely, to boot.”

THE EDGE

  from Drive On!:

I was already on pole, then by half a second and then one second and I just kept going. Suddenly I was nearly two seconds faster than anybody else, including my team mate with the same car. And suddenly I realised that I was no longer driving the car consciously. I was driving it by a kind of instinct, only I was in a different dimension. It was like I was in a tunnel. Not only the tunnel under the hotel, but the whole circuit was a tunnel. I was just going and going, more and more and more and more. I was way over the limit, but still able to find even more.

Justine Henin

I know it's easy to like dominant sports figures like your Kobes, Tigers, Phelps, and Federers; it's only natural to be in awe of the things they do. I'd say Justine Henin is on that list; you could even argue that she's more fun to watch than them. She retired at no.1 and comes back 2 years later like she never skipped a tournament. Who does that? I guess you can say MJ did it, but he came back midseason and couldn't get past out of the Eastern Conference. Serena took a break and came back to dominate, but c'mon, everyone knew she would. Henin just took out a #5 Dementieva in straight sets on her first grand slam back! She hits as hard as anyone and she's 5'6"!*  Her backhand is like a swiss army knife made of titanium and diamonds!

I want to play tennis.

*With exception to the Williamses. I'm pretty sure Serena can arm wrestle Lebron and win.
