Why kids laugh at when seeing others falling/suffering?

Some time ago a teacher friend told me she couldn't understand why there were kids who laughed without helping when seeing a friend fell down.
Now I do. Coz there are TV programs which is showing how funny it is for people to fall down and there are parents who laughed together with them. Say if you are the one who fall that badly, right on your head/knee/or private part, how would you feel with people laughing at you?
To add on that, when you try to tell the kids that it's not alright to laugh at other people in this mode, there are parents who tell you bluntly that "Why dont you ask the program not to show up?". What kind of absurb adult?
Today I let a group of teenagers watched a movie clip on a real life air plane crash, which is about the last 10 minutes of life.
Some of them laughed in the middle of the movie when seeing the passengers falling and hitting.
Blame them to no one, but the TV program/virtual games with lots of hitting and dying, and the laughing parents behind.
I told them straight that you must be something wrong to laugh at someone who is struggling for life.
Frankly, I really do feel sick with teenagers like this. And I feel more sick to see allowing parents who show disrespect of other people feeling.

How To Get Rid Of Banking Telemarketer Annoying Call?

One of the most annoying calls during the peak and off peak period is call from bank telemarketer trying to sell their intangible products.
"Are you free Miss xxxx?"
"err... Short while ok."
"I would like to introduce you to our cash advance program. Have you heard of this?"
"Yes, This is the so-called legalised big ear lobe business."
"???? eee what is it?" took him some time to get back to recovery state, like the hanged Windows XP, then continued with background chuckle. "oh, not like that Miss xxxx." (forever polite with the right address, if call me Madam or Aunty sure i hang off immediately. ) "We wont go to your house and slash paint." (before this fella could finish it, i'd better slash him with my thoughts and scripts.)
"Seriously speaking, would you want your dear family members to engage in a financial situation where you would go for this program and then landed like shit? Would you? Would you?" (pestering for an answer.)
"No.....i mean.....you have to go for a proper channel."
"Oh then why should a banking institution not teaching consumers to manage their money in a proper way, instead of the shitty money lending difficult situation? Again, what would you feel if your family members landed in a difficult situation like they still cant afford to pay back?" (take a big turn and redirect this fella back to the question. All telemarketers really need to think hard rather than being brainwashed by their training program.)
"....... ..... oh ah....."
"Thanks for calling." (It's me saying this instead of this guy. )
Bye bye.....all telemarketers, you'd better bar me from your calling list.
Otherwise, I will give you a lecture on why you should change your job.
Scare you till die. LOL.

电话

老爷刷着电话。我随口问: 上次你不是有只笔,可以写字的吗?
老爷瞪了一眼,眉毛翘了起来:那个是pda,过时了的。
是噢,这种在掌上的东西,看来看去就是一个款型 ---四四方方的。
俊男美女就不一样,款型有差别

Group mandala

Drawing a group mandala in the silence mode. 
An art piece by 4 persons at one go. No need preplan. No need coordination.
It looked nice to me, with some blend of harmony and disharmony.

Movie Review on PK

Spent 2 days to finish this great movie, PK, that inspire to ask about gods (not in religion mode, but in a witty and wise mode).
Amir Khan and the pretty lad led us to a laughing and thinking session.
The kids were asking "why is Buddhism not mention in the movie?" Bingo, coz that's almost the only religion that is not based on god figure. Almidst all the differences among us, there is only one thing in common --- that we all bear our own karma based on our actions, not even any godly talk can take over that.
Like what PK mentioned "there is no religion birthmark."

手机

某日在购物完毕准备还泊车费时,一只手掏钱一只手握着手机还一面握着没放进袋子的物品,这样狼狈的过程中既然不小心按了一个键纽,一个ok就把whatsapp给删掉了。好不容易叫弟弟帮我下载的软件就在一秒钟化为乌有。心想,算了,反正我也不常用,没有免费无线上网的地方我也没有把它开上来。有时开了,也很少把过期的讯息读完看完听完回完。算了吧。等改天吧,再请人帮我下载过。
说电话科技白痴,还比不上照相机白痴。才上个星期,带了相机去孩子学校向老师要文件来拍。按了右上键纽,既然把整个镜头都缩小起来。再按另一个键纽,就整架机关起来了。我不懂是在尴尬的笑,还是在好笑自己的笨笨而好笑。后来还是劳烦老师教我按钮把照片拍下。回来重诉这个过程,家里的老的少的一点也没有惊讶。只有抛下一句,“相机好像不是你的。”这就对啦,家里的相机,从来都不是我爱碰的东西。真难怪。
昨天上着工作坊,学人把手机用来拍照。拍着拍着,就有人告诉我,不可以开flash,不然会太亮,不美。我问,“怎么关啊?”这位仁兄好心帮我点一点就关掉了闪光。为了看前面几张照片的效果,我刷了几张,刷来刷去就是刷不开一直转来转去的图片。仁兄虽然第一次见面,也逼不得已,抛下一句,“这架手机是偷来的。”
我没有被炸到。。。。没有,真的没有。这是我来的

How to deal with death?

Ironically, the best way to deal with death is to talk about it.
It's Cheng Beng and the old folks are talking about property.
Preferably corner lot and with prosperous sound of the lot numbers.
Aiyoyo, die die also must think of empat ekor.
Yes, you are right, we talk and tease about it this way.
When the old folk say, "i am bringing this and this that you like to eat." It is referring to the living, not the death. And it's referring to me.
Well, dont bring food that you don't like to eat to pray, otherwise you will be the one eating, and not the deceased.

变相的父母

变相的父母,喜欢用whatsapp 啦wechat 啦把老师改错的作业放上来传来传去,有时喜欢讽刺老师,有时低估老师,时不时就检举老师的一点一滴的小错误。还说什么不要告诉孩子这个负能量的东西,要告诉好的正能量。真是本末倒置。怎么就没有好好体谅老师近年来的工作非常非常繁重。
这样的家长,如果再当面和我讲起莫某老师有问题,我就要直接告诉他,我如果早几年遇到这样的投诉,我辞职更快,请他行行好来接班代课。
我告诉朋友,如果我是你,我早都leave group 聊。这样的家长,如鬼神,敬而远之。我没有什么神通可以改变别人的想法,只有做好本分事。
老师们,您的辛苦,我们都知道。

《意大利面的省思》


为了赶在消费税来临前能及时补多一次的货,我决定今天煮意大利面。煮完这批货,下个星期好“赚”他6%先。
煮妇的心态是:可以省几毛钱。可是再下下一次呢?我总不可能补完一年的货源吧?
煮妇当然也可以学人乐观/积极/正面思考的看待:不要紧的,其他国家不也是有消费税?不也是这样子就慢慢习惯下来了?
在这个滥用乐观/积极/正面思考的时代,我想这个情形是可以这样来比喻:如果有个慌张的女子跑上来向你说我看到那个男人在我身边自慰。听到的人,明明知道女子处于危险状态,却告诉女子 ”你不要怕,这个没什么好怕的,这个男人没有什么威胁性。你记得关门就好。“ 
鸵鸟和think positively 原来都是那么靠近。

来到另一个海边

绕了半个槟岛,来到另一个海边。
吹着海风的当儿,吃着美味的香蕉糕,幸福得可以飞起来。
一定是前世曾经煮过东西请K.k. Lok吃,所以这一世可以那么轻而易举的又吃又参观老味道的房子。好久都没有看过打洋灰的地板了。
谢谢呵。
回家路程看着刚从工厂里五点放工取车的人。
我想起当年我多么努力的工作,也多么努力的坚持不要马上一工作就买车,情愿驾摩哆,偶尔下雨天就向好心的同事求救。
也想起当年五点放工就不自在得好像在做错事。那个年代没有手提电脑,查电邮是要回工厂。
那个是话当年,其实只有浅浅的回忆。
当年的坚持,其实只是在铺着朝向简单生活的路走。但是那时并不懂怎么告诉身边的人,我的坚持其实不像坚持,像一个选择多一点。
有人说脱俗,其实和懒惰也很相似。
我的幸福,建立在简单和朴实,但是也可以和邋遢和懒惰相提并论。
多年后有人问起为什么可以放弃那么多时,其实真的很惭愧,也不曾拥有什么。
这样子下去,其实国家破产的话,我想不用移民我大概还可以靠物物交换过活吧。
