Need a reason to stare at boobs?

Both Sin Chew Daily and China Press reported that a German research published in the New England Journal of Medicine showed that men ogling at breasts for 10 minutes a day was equivalent to a 30-minute gym workout.

However, this might just be the media sensationalizing the news, because it is also said that the article was not found on the journal’s website.

There was a time when apple approved iboob, an motion sensitive boob jiggling app, but now they have denied it. Check it out here. While youtube still allows it.

I read about this when I was very young and the effect still amazes me until now.

The elbow trick

  1. Stand in front of a wall with your hand stretched.
  2. Move forward/backwards until you are just touching the wall with your middle finger.
  3. Make sure you are upright, and not bending forward or backward.
  4. Now relax your arm and give your elbows a massage of about 30 seconds.
  5. Stretch your arm and try to reach the wall.

Awesome? Of course.
Useful? Maybe, if you want to stop being able to masturbate.

5 steps when facing misery

1. Denial

2. Anger

3. Bargaining

4. Depression

5. Acceptance

 

How To Write Good

How To Write Good

by Frank L. Visco

My several years in the word game have learnt me several rules:

1.Avoid alliteration. Always.
2.Prepositions are not words to end sentences with.
3.Avoid cliches like the plague. (They’re old hat.)
4.Employ the vernacular.
5.Eschew ampersands & abbreviations, etc.
6.Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are unnecessary.
7.It is wrong to ever split an infinitive.
8.Contractions aren’t necessary.
9.Foreign words and phrases are not apropos.
10. One should never generalize.
11. Eliminate quotations. As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said: “I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.”
12. Comparisons are as bad as cliches.
13. Don’t be redundant; don’t more use words than necessary; it’s highly superfluous.
14. Profanity sucks.
15. Be more or less specific.
16. Understatement is always best.
17. Exaggeration is a billion times worse than understatement.
18. One-word sentences? Eliminate.
19. Analogies in writing are like feathers on a snake.
20. The passive voice is to be avoided.
21. Go around the barn at high noon to avoid colloquialisms.
22. Even if a mixed metaphor sings, it should be derailed.
23. Who needs rhetorical questions?

    Fat or anorexic

    Someone once told me “There is limit to how skinny a woman can be, but there is no limit to how fat she can be.”
