  • Disturbing thoughts : Gays on Xanga

    I've been following some gay feud on Xanga (I'm not gay but I do studies on gay culture), and I found a few disturbing things:

    * There are pedophiles targeting gay minors on Xanga

    * There are gays as young as 14 on Xanga

    * There are fakes trying to fool gays into giving them their info and pics

    * There are plenty of vicious backstabbings and feuds

    * There are gays who are trying to change straight guys

    These may sound like a crazy drama on the telly, but it's all so real.

  • This Story...

    This story just makes me facepalm. A couple caught a ball during a Rangers game and didn't give it to the kid sitting beside them because they weren't even aware of him there. Kid has a breakdown and starts crying. Everyone is freaking out at this couple for not giving the ball. Seriously? The kid threw a fit, so they should just hand it over?

    Best part: the kid got one last season and had a breakdown because he 'had his heart set on' that ball. The couple was there at their first game, a few days before their wedding, and now they're getting angry phone calls from strangers and getting demonized because they were oblivious to the kid throwing a temper tantrum beside them.

    What the what?

  • Soccer Tourney

    Currently I'm involve in an inter-soccer clubs tourney. Play as a midfielder and we are in a winning streak with no defeats so far. Yesterday we had a match with ICC Soccer Club. I took a bad tumble after a rough tackle from a rival. He received a yellow card for that and I was replaced by a teammate since my ankle is badly sprained. My team won 3-2 in extra time. I hope to recover in time for the next match.

  • Kick

    Yeeaah, you know those days that go like God laid some personable obstacle course out just for your special and lovely self? Uh-huh. It was one of those days. I have somehow miraculously made it through without: kicking David, kicking the cats, kicking inanimate objects, and/or kicking several vehicles that were in my way on the road today. And by "kicking vehicles", I mean "violently and vehemently testing the theory that two objects of mass cannot occupy the same space at the same time."

    So there's that.

    In more positive news -

    Oh wait. There isn't none. Screw this day and the horse it rode in on.

  • Alcatraz

    Caught up on Alcatraz last night. 

    Wow, they are fucking this up. This was supposed to be a mythology based show and instead has turned into Creature Of The Week.

    Romie summed it up best when she said "I already went through this bullshit with X-Files."

    Wikipedia says some stuff gets revealed in episodes 12 and 13, so I guess I'll stick it out that long, but still... SVU does procedurals better than this so I'm not sure what the point of this show is unless they get back to the mythology. 

    Today or tomorrow I'm going to get caught up on Ringer and am optimistic about that. Yes, Ringer is trashy TV, but it knows it's trashy TV and while I'm four weeks behind it has at least, up to now, consistently given me the kinds of ridiculous cliffhangers, Buffy in clothes that make her look pretty and silly but fun soap opera shit that I'm looking for in this show. 

    I think that's the main difference between Alcatraz and Ringer. It's completely fine and fun for a television show to be trash - as long as it knows it's trash. Just give me ridiculous plot twists and pretty people and I'm cool. When a show is trash but acts like it's some super serious thing it just becomes boring.
