Fans Looking For MJ Memorabilias - Grab Yours!

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 03:41:00 +0000

Whether you're a fan or not, you guys better click through these links. ;)

From random finds to scream your love for MJ and share it with your family and friends, ridiculously expensive artworks by Michael Jackson to reasonably priced VHS tapes, Audio CD and DVDs featuring the King of Pop swarming in Amazon.

Or if you are one of those people who still haven't had their MJ concert tickets refunded, that's a hologrammed ticket right in your hands with inspired and designed graphics by himself. But if you'd rather have your cash back, you might regret letting it go when it might be worth thousands of dollars someday! :P

Hmmm, I wonder if confiscated, used (probably unwashed? I know, that sounds perverted! errr) and sealed for evidence pair of MJ's Calvin Klein underwear tagged with $1.5 million, has already been sold?! If so, I am curious to know the person who won the bid!:D

Blame It on the Poor iPod or Sheer Stupidity?

The message of this ad clearly tells iPod or any other mp3 brands users to quit being oblivious to the world - especially the bustling cars on the streets!

Famous People Turned Into LEGO

It would be a swell to get a LEGO which resembles me...glued in front of a computer, typing on the keyboard with one hand and holding a burger on the other with a label SARJ THE GEEK on the box. :P

ROTFL! Expressions of happiness, thrill, shock, terror and indifference. The look on this baby's face tops any kind of baby booboos I've ever seen - at least for me. Haha!

Barefoot Shoes

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Sat, 01 Dec 2007 05:10:00 +0000

We often complain about hurting soles and ugly calluses when wearing high heels and shoes that just doesn't fit right - well, bitch no more! Run freely and comfortably with a pair of barefoot shoes. You can even paint your toenails pink! How's that? LOL. ;)

The Rule Breaker

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Sun, 25 Nov 2007 08:13:00 +0000

Have you ever had the courage to break the rules? Why don't you be like this bird for once? I just wonder if this thing knows what it's doing. I wonder if anything else still matters for this poor bird? Maybe it matters to see the world for the last time if he got shot - who knows what's in its head? Haha. Well, some people do not realize how bird-brained their ideas are until they've gotten themselves into deep shit already. Break the rules, but only if you think it's worth it. :)

List Universe's Top 10 Bizarre Mental Disorders

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Sat, 17 Nov 2007 05:18:00 +0000

I'd bet you've never heard about any of this. Unless you have been to Listverse, of course. It's a scary thought, this makes me think that I have a little bit of Stendhal Syndrome. But it doesn't happen often because I rarely see exceptional artworks. And do you want to know the symptoms? Read on and be amazed. Whether you think this is ridiculous or not, the things is...these mental disorders actually exist. :)

Stendhal Syndrome is a psychosomatic illness that causes rapid heartbeat, dizziness, confusion and even hallucinations when an individual is exposed to art, usually when the art is particularly ‘beautiful’ or a large amount of art is in a single place. The term can also be used to describe a similar reaction to a surfeit of choice in other circumstances, e.g. when confronted with immense beauty in the natural world.

And this one is funny....I'm glad I'm not a Japanese. Whew. I don't think I'd have the same tendencies when I stepped into Paris.

Paris syndrome is a condition exclusive to Japanese tourists and nationals, which causes them to have a mental breakdown while in the famous city. Of the millions of Japanese tourists that visit the city every year, around a dozen suffer this illness and have to be returned to their home country.

Oh, you better know about it all...you might just be resisting the impulse. :P

Attention: To All Flip-Flops Lovers

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Wed, 14 Nov 2007 12:50:00 +0000

...including myself. Get this. :) I got this forwarded email from a friend yesterday and it said that I should forward it to all my contacts - well, why not let everybody know about it?;)

These are photos of someone's feet who reportedly bought a pair of flip flops made in China and later on developed one of the worst kind of skin irritation.

There was no clear information found on the email so I tried to investigate on it and this is what I got: (a commentary posted at Hoax Slayer dated October 2007)

This emailed message includes several photographs depicting a woman's feet with a severe skin reaction apparently caused by a pair of rubber flip flops (usually called "thongs" in Australia and "jandals" in New Zealand). The message claims that chemicals used in the manufacture of the flip flops caused the rash. According to the message, the flip flops were made in China and sold cheaply in Wal-Mart stores in the US.

The case described in the message is true and the photographs are genuine. The afflicted feet shown in the images belong to Kerry Stiles of Marion County, Florida. Stiles has created a website that features information and a series of photographs depicting the results of apparent chemical burns caused by a pair of flip flops she purchased for $2.44 at the Marion County Wal-Mart. She bought the flip flops for a photo shoot and then wore them for around an hour. But she later developed the painful and debilitating skin reaction shown in the photographs. The strap-shaped appearance of the rash strongly suggests that it was indeed caused by the flip flops.

Yes, I didn't stop until I found what I was looking for - a confirmation whether this is indeed true. Well, if you still have some doubts, you can just ignore this. I am not trying to single out Chinese people for that matter, I just mean to make others aware of the danger that awaits those who are not careful in choosing the products they buy.

Actually I have sensitive skin and I almost always get skin reactions from mild to something like this one whenever I use products which are high in chemical. So what I do is, I try to avoid experimenting with products which I haven't or no one has ever tried before. Haha. :P

Portable Cellphone Booth

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 00:53:00 +0000

Among the many ridiculous inventions, this never fails to make me laugh. I first spotted this portable cellphone booth some years ago and the dead serious look on the guy's face actually cracked me up. I bet carrying this around is like backpacking with a CRT monitor. Haha!

Nick Rodriguez, the sculptor, came up with this idea for just one reason:

To be open and receptive to one another is an invaluable trait not to be given up or taken advantage of. The sculptures that I make are my way of talking about the issues we all see but cannot change.

That's for us to learn how to value real-time interaction between the ones we care about and to be reminded of our own social obligations. So what keeps you from drowning into self-involvement? A portable and retractable cellphone booth is this man's take.

Beer Is Better Than Water

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Sun, 11 Nov 2007 05:22:00 +0000

Aside from its known benefits such as reducing the risk of heart disease, dementia and diabetes, scientists have recently found out that drinking a glass of beer - more like the ingredients found in it such as sugars, salts and bubbles - after sweating it out in the gym or any in kind of work out would help you absorb more fluid faster. Of course, this should be taken in moderation - too much of it will shrivel you up. :P

He [Professor Garzon] believes the carbon dioxide in beer helps quench the thirst more quickly, while beer's carbohydrates replace calories lost during physical exertion.
Based on the studies, the researchers have recommended moderate consumption of beer - 500ml a day for men or 250ml for women - as part of an athlete's diet.

Athlete's diet, you say? So that means that people who just love sitting on their asses the whole day drinking beer won't help them get fit and the calories would just build up on their fat bellies. ;) Hmm, remind me that again.

Bad Camera Gag

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Sat, 10 Nov 2007 01:47:00 +0000

"You can't please everybody" - there's so much truth in this adage. Sadly, for some who just want to have fun, the saying "you can't fool everybody" is a major disappointment. Here's an example:

Coolest Creatures

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 02:46:00 +0000

This one is called a Hoffman's two-toed sloth - yes, who ever owns that last name is the one who discovered this little creature. You know why I admire them so much? It's because they don't mind being in an upside-down position for almost forever - I wonder if they sometimes complain though. I think they do know that they could move themselves up to a normal position, but they chose not to - they are accustomed to look at the world in that way. Haha. Look at him, he doesn't even care what you think he's doing. :P

Mickey Mouse LCD HDTV

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 05:00:00 +0000

Actually, it is called a Disney LCD HDTV, but since my favorite cartoon character is Mickey Mouse and the TV's exterior has Mickey's handprints and his characteristics on it, this is truly for the Mickey fans. Haha. Really cool, huh? :)
via Techie Diva

It features a 1,366 x 768, a brightness level of 500cd/m2, a couple of 3W speakers, TruSurround TX and TruBass support, and a couple of HDMI ports - and above all, it is available at a price of €540 in Japan. *cry*

Puppy Carrier Slash Bag

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 02:58:00 +0000

Don't want to walk your dog with a leash for the little bastard might drag you around? Would you choose not to squeeze them into a baby carrier for they might bite off your neck when it gets irritated? And do you feel that the stroller is too bulky and not too safe for him either (you know, he might jump off)?

Hmm, what do you think of this bag then? Do you think it would accessorize your outfit or ruin it? I mean, really, your wiggling puppy might get too anxious to get out and accidentally scratch the fabric on *that* side of your clothes. Haha. Nah, I think it's cute. :)

Kinky Stuff: The Winerack

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 04:26:00 +0000

Before anything else, let me remind you that everything I post here are strictly those I regard as amusing - and are not exactly what I wanted to buy/get for myself (do I sound like I am in a defensive mode? oh, I'll leave the thinking to you.Haha). So now, I am posting this one because I thought this would arouse interest especially among sick men - who are mad about racks and booze at the same time.

What is the product description? How does this help you? And who can have/wear it? Come on, give me a wild guess. *wink*

Tired of guessing a no-brainer? View full specs here and then laugh your ass off.

Ultimate Gaming Chair

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Sat, 03 Nov 2007 06:25:00 +0000

Whether you are a gamer or not, you'd surely love Renegade. :P Well, this is just like the La-Z Boy chair that I've been eyeing for sooo long - a reclining seat with speakers and vibrating back massage - the only difference is, it also has vibration motors which works in sync with the game you are playing. Hmm, so when I am playing GTA or NFS, this would be a great way to enjoy the game more - imagine all that adrenaline rush. Ugh, do you think I am way behind with the games I'm playing? :(

List Of Blogger-Celebrities

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 08:18:00 +0000

Not celebrity/entertainment bloggers! Oh, my enthusiasm just died after visiting their so-called "fan blogs". Haha. How silly could you get when you actually thought that they're going to give out their personal blog sites?! Hahaha! And why do I have this nagging feeling that every word they say has a double-meaning of "showbizness" in it? LOL. Anyway, it is still fun to snoop around when you are getting as bored as I am. It is just annoying to be greeted with "Hello everyone" and when they add an ending note like "See you soon, John Mayer" Argh. And you slightly feel a bit of disgust with the way they always seem to communicate with their readers as their fans, which is..well, the truth. Haha. And that's what makes it irritating, in a way.

So, here are the 66 celebrities who blog and I hope you pick a substantial quote from them or something that could be equally useful. Have fun!

Oh, and I almost forgot the most important one...

67. Myself

Of course, you can add yourself too if you feel like a celebrity! Haha.

iPod Touch Commercial By A Student

noreply@blogger.com (Sarj) — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 10:22:00 +0000

Nick Haley, an 18-year-old student from Leeds University, made an iPod touch commercial using his Apple's Final Cut Pro which apparently grabbed every YouTube lurker's attention - includung Apple marketing employees. This just goes to show that a brilliant idea doesn't always have to come from best "brainstorming team" Apple could hire. :P

And I am glad that this young talent got recognized for his effort - even if it really wasn't intended to match up to other Apple commercials. Guess he just loves it so much that he actually became inspired to this one. ;)

Full story here. And here's the video. :)
