Cube: Hi, Line.

Line: Hi, Square. Do you know where I can find a pencil?

Cube: Yea, sure. Just move forward a bit and you will see it.

Line: I have moved up and down. I have also moved left and right. And I still don't see where this pencil is.

Cube: No, not up down, not left right. You have to move forward.

Line: Look, Square, stop fooling around. I don't appreciate your sarcasm.

Cube: Gosh, how can I help you? And I am not Square, I am Cube.

Line: Ok, that's it, get out of here. I'm not talking to you any more.

Fun says, "Optimistic?"

Friend: I hope people are ethical because they wanted to be & not forced by the law. But this is optimistic thinking.

Fun: People want to be ethical, all the time. But the system force them away from being ethical. It is the system's fault. Change the system, and our streets will be filled with angels. How's this for optimistic thinking?

Fun says, "The ultimate weight loss program is..."

... to THINK!

A car is a fuel guzzling machine and the brain is a carbohydrate guzzling machine. By revving up your brain, you burn off a lot of the sugar in your blood stream, stopping them from being converted into fat to be deposited in those visible areas. So, this will stop you from gaining weight.

Apart from that, a major component used in the formation of brain and brain cells is FAT! Yes, you heard me right, FAT! By working your brain cells, you are encouraging them to grow, using up more fat from your body. Hence, there will be less fat deposited on your tummy or thigh. Naturally, this will cause you to lose weight.

Lastly, by spending time to think, you sacrifice your eating time. If you don't eat, you don't gain weight. Wonderful, right?

So, it is time for you to pull out that sudoku, scientific journal, mathematics workbook or anything that requires your brain and start revving now!

Fun says, "Comic - The Raspberry Tree"

Abang the Brother: The raspberry tree has thorns.

Pandai the Genius: How could you hate the raspberry tree so much?

Abang the Brother: Thorns can prick and cut, you know?

Pandai the Genius: Why do you want to chop off the tree?

Abang the Brother: A pair of thick gloves might be necessary for plucking the berries.

Pandai the Genius: You are evil! How can you plan to chop down the raspberry tree? It has given you many sweet berries!

And hence, Pandai the Genius blindfolded himself and pluck off from the raspberry tree to eat.

You know your introversion level is off the chart when you are in a party of 50 people and you have a table all by yourself, and you are having a great time there...

范說：“中庸？”

甲：吃一碗。
乙：答不出。
丙：吃完它。

范說：“小叮嚀-別以貌取人。”

人家說，外表與樣貌不代表內涵、穿了漢服不代表就是一表人才、留了鬍子就不代表是有智慧的人。 對！我很贊成這說法。可是，很多人卻忽略了一點。就是很多人，因為外表與樣貌、穿漢服、留鬍子，才一直可以提醒自己，應該要保持內涵、表現出優秀的人格、努力做個有智慧的人。 小小的叮嚀，你們可能看不上眼。可是對我來說，它們是我的知己，它們有一天會幫我成就大業。

Fun says, "Think!"

The other day, a person commented on my friend's post. My friend has been posting out her ideas on how people can improve their relationships by following some simple rules. The person commented that when you need rules to make a relationship work, its not a relationship born out of love anymore, its a need rather than a necessity.

I replied that life is filled with rules, even gravity is a rule we need to follow and ignoring it could be deadly. Rules, when used appropriately, can enhance things significantly. And I believe that is my friend's objective - to inspire people to play by the right rules to make things better for everyone.

Isn't the logic clear here? If no one follows traffic rules, a lot of people will die from accidents. Yet the person cleverly argued back, "Ever heard of rules are meant to be broken?"

At this point, anger seized me, for how can a thinking people say such a thing? I angrily replied that the statement "rules are meant to be broken" is precisely the reason the world is so chaotic. And I asked the person to consider the idea of breaking the law of gravity by jumping of the Petronas Twin Towers.

Again, a very clever reply from him. He said that there are parachutes and bungee ropes. At this point, he was making personal attacks on me and I decided to bail the discussion.

His final reply is a very clever one because he AGREED with me that rules must be followed. The law of gravity holds, therefore he must apply other laws to keep his poor life. I wonder what will happen if nature suddenly decides that the rule of air resistance should be broken while he is parachuting...since he believe rules are meant to be broken...

Fun says, "Lo, is that a magical cure?"

Over the years, I've received quite a lot of emails claiming certain food or herb or medicine to be the magical cure that can miraculously cure many different sort of illnesses at one go. They make all sorts of claims and give seemingly convincing stories about how some people were healed and saved by these cures. The whole thing does really seem convincing until you approach the thing from a scientific perspective. Then, you will see that the claims and stories are filled with various loopholes.

Saying that a person ate a certain thing everyday and get cured doesn't establish a fact of the thing is effective for curing that illness. Even if several people got well from that same thing, scientific methods are still required to rule out placebo effects. And at times, you will find that the figures given in the claims aren't correct. This gives you enough reason to suspect the accuracy and authenticity of the claims.

If all these claims aren't backed by science, why are people making such claims like they are scientifically supported? The are two reasons behind this. One reason is profit. Certain parties are making profit by selling those food, herb or medicine. They want to make people buy more believing they are buying something good. So, they twist the truth or tell half-truths to make people buy their products.

The other reason is that these people have fallen into the trap of zealotry. A nutritionist or doctor may have recommended something as a cure for a certain problem to a person. This person took the cure and got well. He introduced this to another person slightly exaggerating the benefits of the cure. This second person introduce to a third, adding his own benefits. The third will then say, "you don't need any other medicine. This will cure all your problems." And so it became a magical cure.

I am not saying that all the claims in those emails are false. Some may be true. However, what worries me is that there is false information being passed around like facts. Next time when you want to forward your emails hoping to spread knowledge, you might want to pause for a few minutes and verify the claims before sending out to your friends. Or else, you may be spreading ignorance.

Fun says, "A question on practicality."

Have you ever met with girls who expect men to pay for everything when they are out together? That's not the worst of them. They justify their actions by saying, "Hey, I'm picking a husband here. I want to be practical and have a man who can give me the life I deserve."

It seemed like a pretty justified statement, isn't it? But it makes me want to ask, "is 100 pairs of heels practical?" or maybe "is indulging in high-end restaurant every date practical?" and "do you really deserve to live like a queen?"

It isn't wrong for a woman to be practical and seek a partner who is capable of giving her a comfortable life. However, it is too much to ask for when a woman wants a man to be an ATM machine so that she can indulge in her own impractical desires.

Empathy level has been in decline among college students¹ and personally, I think empathy level has declined in the society as a whole. This has resulted in the development of this selfish idea among girls that guys should provide for all their desires without the need to do their roles as the female partner.

A relationship requires contributions from both sides. The man can do the providing for if the woman does the caring after. Play your roles properly, both men and women, and happiness will not be too far away.

Fun says, "Bimbo Theory."

I know, I know, not all beautiful women are stupid. However, I suppose, most of you can't deny that there exist such a group of people who has all the looks but no brain. Yes, I mean the bimbos. Those people are so vain that they have no capacity for intellect.

Don't get me wrong, I do not mean that being beautiful is something bad or wrong. Neither do I mean that being stupid or brainless is something bad or wrong...maybe bad, because some people tend to take advantage of stupid people, but definitely not wrong. Finally, I do not mean that being beautiful and stupid is something wrong.

What I want to share here is not about the pro or con a person being a bimbo. I want to share about what my thoughts on why do this group of people exist. Evolution theory states that natural selection will eliminate the stupid and incompetent. However, bimbos are still being generated at every generation. This surely means that they have certain advantages that keep them alive.

So, why do bimbos exist? How did they come about? Before I can answer that, I'd like to put forth a few premises that will chain up the whole explanation.

#1: Brain cells are like muscle cells - If you don't use them, you will lose them.
Hence, intelligence can be improved by proper training of the brain.

#2: People behave in the way they believe they can get the most benefit from.
This is simple economic theory. If a child believes he can win the toy he wants with tantrums, surely he will throw tantrums, especially if it worked before. If the child is provided with other options, he will act according to which he believes is the easiest and most effective.

#3: If a person always gets/given something, a sense of entitlement will develop.

#4: A lot of people use supplication as a means of trying to win love.

#5: Most people want to win the love of beautiful people.

Now, we are ready to go.

Some people are beautiful. People see that they are beautiful and thus wanted love from them. They started supplicating and try to please the beautiful breed with all they can think of. The beauties, who got used to being voluntarily pleased and entertained, developed a sense of entitlement over it. If they fail to get it with this entitlement, they can always use their beauty to seduce the supplicators to give them. It is a simple way for them to get what they need and want. Having such an easy method to get what they need and want, they have no need for lots of thinking. By thinking less, they lose their brain cells. Therefore, the end result would be bimbos!

So, the next time you feel tempted to call someone a bimbo, remember that that person doesn't need a brain to think hard to get what he/she wants. Whereas, the poor you, is thinking and working hard to get those same things...are they stupid? Or rather, are we cleverer?

Fun says, "Be Gone O Stupidity!"

Here are some useful ideas that will make you cleverer.

#1: Intelligence is not genetic
Scientific evidence is pointing to the direction that intelligence can be trained and improved over time. So, you are not born stupid. You just did not think hard enough to have strong brain muscle.

#2: The "I am lazy" excuse
Very often, people tell me that they are lazy to think, lazy to work. However, they aren't really lazy as they are spending a lot more energy and time on the matters involved. Simply because they never thought, their strategies aren't efficient. And we all know what laziness means - LEAST effort for MAXIMUM return. 30 minutes of hard thinking to solve a persisting issue is definitely more efficient than a lifetime of labouring to run around a persisting issue.

#3: No pain, no gain but too much pain, you get no gain too
A common fact. You got to flex your brain to improve its functionality. However, you don't have to throw a problem so tough that it gives up before trying. Always start with easy quizzes. Let your brain build up its strenght. Similarly, when you go to the gym, you don't hit the heaviest weight first. You start with something that you believe you can handle.

#4: Your brain is a heavy eater
A brain consumes a lot of oxygen and energy everyday. So, it is wise to give it enough of healthy food, water and oxygen. By having a balanced diet, properly hydrating yourself and breathing in enough fresh air, you are basically providing your brain with what it takes to perform well.

#5: You are not a robot
Even some robots do not work 24/7, so you should take adequate rest. Best to sleep before 11pm every night. Give your brain time to build more neurons to bridge for better performance. It is not just quantity, it is quality as well. So, hit your bed early, get a good quality sleep with the right quantity of about 6 to 8 hours.

Hope you enjoyed these five ideas that should make you cleverer. ;)

Fun says, "Be Gone O Viruses and Malwares!"

Here are simple ways to keep your computer clean from viruses and malwares.

Tip #1: Disable autoplay/autorun.
We all know how often when you just plug in your pendrive and there goes your computer, being infected by a myriads of viruses and malwares. Hackers know that people tend to be lazy and keeps the autorun enabled. So, your convenience become theirs as well.

Read from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/967715 to know how to disable autorun.

Tip #2: Learn how to read URL.
URL like http://www.infectyourcomputer.com/virus.htm?photo=nakedgirl.jpg ^* is OBVIOUSLY NOT a photo of a naked girl. Know how to look at URL to determine if it is a virus site or a real photo.

^*That is a made up URL. I don't know if it will lead you anywhere if you click it.

Collorary tip: Don't be such a horny person.

Tip #3: Never click on URL you are not sure of.
A lot of seemingly friendly URL sent by your "friends" may not actually come from your real friends. You can't be too careful.

Tip #4: Read what you are shown and use some common sense.
A lot of viruses and malwares disguise themselves as virus scan results in attempts to fool people into clicking "yes". If you do not read properly and simply press, you might simply be inviting virus into your computer.

Tip #5: If you ever get infected, get an expert to clean it.
Don't be so selfish and infect your friends. What goes around, comes around. You'll end up infecting yourself again the next time, after you cleaned your computer.

Happy protecting your computers, dudes.

Suram the Goth: Tell me, what are you expecting from this job?

Kira the Mathematician: I am looking to be a statistician for your herbalist's department.

Suram the Goth: Do you know that herbs are actually ineffective? They do not follow science. They do not work. It is only in the mind.

Kira the Mathematician: Oh really?

Suram the Goth: Of course. You see, if this herb is suppose to cure cancer, then it should be that whoever that never eat the herb will get cancer. But we don't see that happening, do we?

Kira the Mathematician: That is illogical! Being a mathematician, I must say that all A's are B's doesn't imply that all B's are A's! That is so incorrect!

Suram the Goth: Who tell you mathematics is correct? Mathematics is only correct in the mathematical context. It doesn't apply to herbs. For herbs, it is all in the mind. Herbs give placebo effects.

Kira the Mathematician: (Decided that Suram the Goth is a goner) Ok, thank you for your time. Good bye.
