you have an MBA, don’t you?

The new guy in our group just noticed that I wear jackets from time to
time, today being one of those days. The dress code here is business
casual, with middle to upper management wearing jackets and ties. I
suppose the new guy didn’t find it fitting for me to wear a suit
jacket because I am just not that type of person. I smiled and said
“I like wearing jackets.” and walked away.

Had the dude given me the old line, “dress for the job you want, not
the one you have” I would have revealed my secret(s)…

– I’m rocking a faux-hawk today
– I have a “White People Suck” t-shirt on
– My collared sport shirt is untucked
– I am wearing pants that are ill fitting
– Dumbasses can’t see past the fact that I’m wearing a jacket because
they think that I’m out to take their job, or going for a job
interview.

Save me Cupid (bring Imodium)

Sigh, won’t anyone make my romantic fantasies come true? White Castle is having their annual Valentine’s day celebration, but new this year is the take home “Cupid Crave Kits”. [linky]

Complete with 8 cheeseburgers, a sack of fries, two drinks, coupons, and a “keepsake”. I’m sure my best gal-pal is prompting her boyfriend to reserve one, unfortunately there isn’t a White Castle in her town. I have asked Snuffy, and he has capitulated but he knows that I would never call to make a reservation.

pinoyboy: HONEY HONEY HONEY HONEY HONEY!!!

pinoyboy: make a reservation for the take home meal
snuffy: white castle gives me the trots
pinoyboy: I know, but I loves it
snuffy: ok, go ahead and make the reservation
pinoyboy: 😀

no longer sucking the balls of ‘da man’

Bubble Tea [linky]

It has been many years since I was knobby headed kid drinking sagoo.
The concoction was usually made with melon juice, the raunchy lot
that I hung out with considered them “eyeballs in piss”. As we grew
older, and less enamored with things of our culture, our love of the
gummy eyeballs waned.

Fast forward through the 90s and the bubble tea fad came to these
shores. The surge of hyper-active teens drove the fad, and I caught
the fever. Far from eyeballs in piss, bubble tea is a world of
creamy shakes and fruity slushes.

Cut to today, I found tapioca pearls and bubble straws in my Chinese
grocer. Huzzah, I no longer have to go to bubble tea shops where they
are over priced and have limited flavors or buy supplies from the
internet. I have the means of cheaply making sagoo/bubble tea at home.

pocky vs puke

ポッキ [Japanese: po·kki | ‘po-kki | ]
puke [Tagalog: pu·ke | ‘poō-keh | ]

One is the sweet treat, and the other… well it could be a sweet treat.

Pocky [link], is a Japanese confection consisting of a biscuit/cookie/breadstick partially coated with a sweet shell.

Puke, is the generalized term for vagina.

Pukengkeng [ Tagalog: pu·keng·keng | ‘poō·kehng·kehng | ] is the slang for pussy, a contraction of “puke” and “kerengkeng” meaning a woman of loose morals.

There’s your lesson for the day, one step closer to becoming a cunning linguist.
