life is a parody in itself. actuali.. on second thought... im not sure if its life... well.. let me re-work that earlier claim. Society is about a dozen shades of parody. i dunno abt u.. but wat triggered me off for such a like dramatic deduction is the word "lame". I mean.. to think of it.. the word lame has like evolved in its meaning from like.. like.. paralysed to like.. u know.. weak humour.. the same can be said about the word "kental".. in the context of the malay language. For the benefit of my non-malay speaking frens, "kental" actuali(by actualli i mean as in the dictionary) means firm. But the funny ting is.. malay youngsters hav now managed to morph the word into a slang which carries the meaning sthg like geeky like dat lah... actuali its more like uncool.. So its like if someone tucks in their shirt n pulls it out only like 5 cm, they are kental. if someone cant walk in the rain without getting sick, they are kental. if someone has their nose buried in their books 24/7 (or even 10/7), they are kental. Im sure u guys have ur eyes n ears opened wide enuf to know who n wat 'mats n minahs' are.. now here are the unfortunately so-called trend-setters in the mly youth community. First, there was the skinny, almost not there eyebrow cult. that, of course came together with big hoop earrings and pedal pushers. then, it was the missy elliot look. Complete with those plastic funky earrings n the utterly poseurish bandanas n trucker caps. N of course minahs never go anywhere without their trusty 'Esprit' tote bag n lipgloss. OH.. n did i forget to tell u tt my oh-so-dearie mother bought me one n told me dat.. "but everibodi's wearing one"...... (-_-")........ point proven.

Now if u thot that was bad, let's talk about MAT dressing(oh, btw, its mat as in mart without the 'r', not mat as in rug). mats.... oh man.... wat can i say abt them... well.. a lot actuali.... For one.. they're the most faithful bunch i know... but unfortunately, not in the religious context. mats have like a great following here in Singapore. lets just put it like this. If u're a malay guy in Singapore, u're either a pro-mat(aka a mat) or a mat-hater(aka e antimats). Mats.... sigh... mats hav a sense of dressing so horrible that even simon cowell cannot find the words to explain.. "abysmal" wud be too kind... "Absolutely ghastly" a little to mild.. well.. its more like...... couture fashion gone astray... i mean.. combine tapered jeans, a supposedly "old skool" top and white sandals.. and oh ya.. some weak hairstyle with dreadful blond highlights.. n wat do u get? A WALKING, TALKING AND ABSOLUTELY HUMILIATING FASHION DISASTER. well.. its not just the dressing lah.... tt wud be wayyyy too superficial... its their mannerisms as well... walao.. these mats ah... indescribable sia.. gtg for now.. my pc's gone mad. Down with spam!!!! Damn the pop-up ads!!
