So You Think Your Hip?

Filed under: Web, Rant — Eric Huang @ 8:18 pm

One of my biggest pet peeves are when people use Internet slang. It’s retarded in my opinion, and the only slang phrases you’ll ever catch me using are: gtg, brb, IMO, and maybe ttyl. It transforms converstions like this:
Me: Hey
You: Hi
Me: What’s up?
You: nm, hbu?

Been A Little Busy

Filed under: Personal — Eric Huang @ 5:27 pm

If you’ve been around, you would notice that I haven’t updated the site in 3 days. Well, to tell you the truth I was busy doing other things and well I couldn’t think of anything to write. I can promise you that I’ll write about something interesting or provoking next time around.

Working on my freelance contracts take up some of my time and I haven’t been sitting at my computer for a couple of days. Hopefully when I finish these jobs I’ll update my portfolio. That’s it for now, however I leave you with one question: How is it possible that the United States doesn’t have a domestic TV company? Does the CIA and FBI order TVs from Mitsubishi or Sony?

The End Of The Solar System?

Filed under: World — Eric Huang @ 2:54 pm

That’s right folks, Pluto has offically been stripped of it’s planet classification! From the NY Times:“After years of wrangling and a week of bitter debate, astronomers voted on a sweeping reclassification of the solar system. In what many of them described as a triumph of science over sentiment, Pluto was demoted to the status of a “dwarf planet.”

In the new solar system, there are eight planets, at least three dwarf planets and tens of thousands of so-called “smaller solar system bodies,” like comets and asteroids.

Oh Boy, Exploding Battery Woes

Filed under: World, Computers — Eric Huang @ 12:44 pm

Read This Article on SMH. Jeez, first no lipgloss, lipstick, shampoo, and baby formula. Now laptop batteries are the new target of airlines! Why question is why target only Dell? Isn’t that a bit discriminate as any laptop with any battery can randomly explode? Anyone seen those blown up Macbooks? Yes, it’s true any laptop left on for extended periods of time or in the wrong place can overheat and explode! It’s not just Dell, yet they are only targeting them… Odd. This was first posted at Gizmodo.

News Stories That Aren’t News Stories

Filed under: World — Eric Huang @ 8:02 am

Well, great now we suppossingly have this half-insane person coming all the way from Thailand for some murder of a 6 year old girl. The first thing that bugs me, is that everyone refers to the girl as the “6-year-old beauty pageant contestant,” as CNN states. Just what the hell, who gives a crap about the girl being in a beauty pagent? I certaintly don’t care, why do they have to keep bringing that up?

And then, those beauty pagents are just sick also. Imagine dressing your child, I mean little child, in outlandish clothes two gerenations way ahead of her age and then showing her off you some retard judges. Meantime they get to jiggle their bodies and show off what? I mean, what do they have to show off? There freaking 6 years old! If it was a real model, well then that would be a different story wouldn’t it.
