Sexy, innit?

I went to the Friday prayer with blatant disregard to my dad’s constant advice that I shouldn’t take my fancy shoes or sandals to the mosque, given he did one day and had his stolen. Every other week I hear that advice, however I never thought it’d happen to me because..well I’m awesome.

Of course from the picture, you must conclude that the above paragraph and my confidence in my intimidating foot presence is a load of crap. I had my fancy sandals stolen, I sat on my fancy sunglasses and bent it and I returned home with a pair of sandals that slipped off my feet with every step because it looks like it was gang banged by a tribe of hungry dogs. Making you wonder if that’s paint on the left one or dog love juice.

To my surprise,well not really, I managed to pull them off and make them look sexy. I think the difference in size between the pair helped to highlight the curves of my toes while improving their Enzo like aerodynamics.

- The Penguins -

Those were the most depressed, emo, lazy ass penguins I’ve ever seen. They’re rightfully named Jackasses in comparison to the ones we’re familiar with which are called Emperors. Of course this is coming from a penguin enthusiast, so that’s why I’m cranky. If you really know me then you know about my unconditional love to penguins. If you wrong a penguin in front of me, I’d probably end your bloodline and turn your grave into a public bathroom.

- The Aquarium -

Many years ago, in the late 90’s I went to the Scientific Center and I was awed by the amazing creatures, fish tanks and all the magical things. I kept bragging about this magical place unil I came back today, nearly 11 years later. I realized I was just a small Arab boy who didn’t know much in life. The tanks looked so tiny and boring, nothing caught my eye except some fish genitalia either humping the glass or licking it for food.

I loved the Kuwaiti kids working there, some of them looked depressed in a suicidal way and others were perky and fun to the point where you wanted to slap them silly with a sense of reality.

To sum my experience, when I went to Dubai Atlantis’ aquarium, which’s a 30 minute walk according to the brochure, I spent nearly 2 hours there snapping pictures of everything and posing homosexually with the Atlantean warrior figures. In Kuwait’s Aquarium only one thing yanked me to take a picture of it.

All the info-screens were turned off or unplugged. I don’t know if they’re brand new to be just but they took away my God given privilege of pretending to read and look interested with an educated  “Hmm!” look!

- Class and etiquette in Kuwait -

On a lighter yet important note, the Kuwaiti population need to have a sense of museum etiquette. Something is deeply wrong with a nation when they lack the class of letting people take their turn and enjoy displays at a museum of any sort. Whether it’s barging in front of you and slowly sliding in your place, or just standing next to you and talking loudly killing any sense of enjoyment you might’ve had.

You stay classy Kuwait, you stay classy!

Notice that pothole on the bottom left? I nearly broke my hip when I accidently drove on it. My ass was not pleased, getting caught by surprise and all.

On a seemingly irrelevant note, a friend and I always argue about my cold nature. Whenever I’m at a U-Turn he screams for me to pass quickly while I take my time and wait for a wide opening and then U-Turn in astonishing sexuality. I simply don’t see a reason for the rush, other than lust for it of course. Other than that, just take your time and enjoy that bumpy road.

Always ask about your meal and how big it is. Sometimes after your 15 minute wait, that burger’s just too small for your beasty self. Or those lamb chops look like gigantic horse chops. Those are just huge! Look at the phone to realize how big it really is. I didn’t know if those were for hungry cavemen or rabid dogs.

On a relevant note, the Butchershop & Grill definitely sucks. That was my first and last visit.

This is how we do business in Kuwait. Yeah, bitches. When we want to fix broken sewer holes, we just busta chair in that shit. (pun intended)

On a relevant note, would you believe me if I said I took this picture at night and all of that light was my susnhine? I would.

Being a part-time Mythbuster, I tried the myth iLSuL6ana posted about. It’s about putting an opened bottle of water in your car, and lowering a window a bit. To put it simply, just invest in V-Kool.

I’m thinking about “coming to America” and studying there instead of KU. I’ll see if I can on Sunday hopefully.

Critical Thinking: “the mental process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating information to reach an answer or conclusion”

Critical thinking is very useful and can be applied to many aspects of life, if not all. Everyone acknowledges the power of critical thinking, but some people simply deny its existence in religion.

After numerous debates or attempts to start a debate, the response of “Sorry, let’s stop here. I don’t want to say anything wrong and sin!” usually followed when things barely touched the surface. The failing attempts were to discuss the legitimacy of the niqab, a known subject of controversy especially around Sarkozy’s annoucement against it. Amongst other subjects.

Why do people fear to think about religion, not any religion, but their own? A true religion isn’t simply following rules. It drives you to think and understand life as cliche as this sounds. The Prophet of Islam himself was a thinker before his message. Of course, this isn’t a comparison between the average Muslim and the Prophet however he is supposed to be your role model.

Of course a person shouldn’t discuss the indisputable doctrines of religion since disputing them would defy the purpose of belief, but why not discuss everything else for a better understanding? Why blindly follow a rule when you can discuss it until you understand it to further believe in it and see the sense in following the said rule or perhaps see the error in your ways?

Religion is supposed to be spiritual, how can you be spiritual without thinking about the fundemental aspects of your religion? Especially when the mind is overly emphasized in Islam as a great gift to Man, so why not use this blessing instead of pretending everything in religion is a giant leap of faith.

“You kept asking the sushi chef if his knife was a hattori hanzo” – Textsfromlastnight

If anyone gets that joke then I love you!

If you’re a girl: I will wed you and make an honest woman out of you*.

If you’re a boy: I’ll be your brother and wingman.

If you’re both: Snip snip.

*I can only wed four at a time.

Another favorite from TFLN, “You should have seen k-money last night. She was just hanging on to the toilet for half the night. By her fourth trip to puke, she started talking to it and was doing the voices for her and it. She kept saying “…we thank you for your continued business…” haha”.
