they couldn't even got it right?

ayu and I went to do "our girl business" at the campus center when ayu found this:
(literal translation: do not throw your excess food into the sink) 
DI LARANG --> DILARANG. because it's a verb.

MEMASUKAN --> MEMASUKKAN. double K.
WASS TAVEL --> WASTAFEL. taken from Dutch (i think). 

my goodness. it's Indonesian language and they can't get it right! more ironic because it's located at the campus center. some Indonesian really need to get the Bahasa Indonesia lesson more. because obviously there's no guarantee of great writing even if you ARE native Indonesian.

so, the prologue of this story is simple. i've been avoiding Korean series since all my friends are kinda addicted to them. but when you have class every other Friday and don't really have much to do, you'll start to look out for some entertainment. unfortunately, mine was the Korean series. 

i finally watch the Meteor Garden of the Korean--because i watched Meteor Garden, yes, i did when i was an unstable teenanger--and i've got to be honest, i think the Chinese did it better. 

anyway, i was staring blankly ahead when this thing appeared on my television. ever since, it's been my favorite  game to share with my friends: 

what's wrong with this picture? anyone?


a friend of mine actually thought THAT was a SHE, when the truth is that's a HE.
but that's not what i meant, no. anyone? care to comment about what's wrong with it?

need we say more about the most creative tag line. ever.

Tuhan Suka Bercanda #1

i was standing in the line to buy my paddle pop ice cream the other Saturday. in front of me was this guy that tried to pay with his BCA flash card, but since this story happened in Cisitu area, of course the flash machine didn't work and it took a very long time for the guy to tried and failed peep-ing his card.
anyway, because of it, i had nothing to do except staring blankly ahead--fortunately i was staring at his hand.

it's tattooed on the lower left arm.

(from now on, i'm going to write this as what happened and what conversation i had in my own head.)

me: oh, he's tattooed, what's that word?
(fuck)
me: huh? who would carved that word to his arm permanently? 
(i tried to look closer)
(fuck)
me: oh, okay. he did carved that permanently, but wait, it's a phrase. what is it? "i don't give a fuck"?
(because his hand was turned in some weird way, it was hard for me to read carefully. but, there're two letters beside "fuck" so it can't be "i don't give a fuck.")
me:wait, is that "to" i see beside "fuck"??
(God answered my question. the tattoo guy turn his hand so that i can read it correctly)
(IS LIKE TO FUCK)
me: is like to fuck.
me: what?
me: he carved THAT. permanently?!!
me: okay, that's his body and he can decide to do anything with it.
me: but no, is that a right phrase?
me: is like to fuck? (tried to translate to literal Indonesian) no no no. that still don't add up to anything.
me: is like to fuck? IS LIKE TO FUCK???!!!
(i simply couldn't do anything by then. i tried so hard not to laugh. i tried so hard not to cringe. i tried to make eye contact with Boi to get her to the cashier right then but she didn't get my signal so i had to cope with "is like to fuck" all by myself)

Good God! at least if you want to try to look like a bad boy who likes to fuck, get it right, dude! ask your friends, ask your English teacher, or the least you can do, ask the tattoo artist.

TUHAN SUKA BERCANDA

well, since Boi and I are bored and there're lot of things going on around us--beyond sense things--we decided to put this new tag to our own blogs, it's called "tuhan suka bercanda" or translated into "God loves to joke around--well, somewhere along that line" the posting will contains every single ridiculous things, our not-so-inside jokes, and beyond. since i upgraded my phone i have really easy access to take pictures anytime, anywhere and this new tag is the consequences for that. we hope you enjoy this tag as much as we do.

Should I Give Up?

or should i just keep chasing pavements?
even if it leads nowhere.
