In the last 5 minutes or so (obviously wasting my time on this blog when in reality there's so much reading for me to do) I have been googling for free widgets I could add to my blog. Maklumlah the over-aspiring IT illiterate wants to snazz up her blog. So I got on this blog, Mashables: All That's New on the Web, where they've listed 50 Great Widgets For Your Blog.
If you're patient enough to scroll all the way down, you'll find the recommendations for AnswerTips and Answerboxes. I figured that since I've been using so many Manglish terms and English campur like lah-s, kiasu-s, senget and such, something must be done for non-Malaysian readers (if there's any, haha, which is highly unlikely). I mean, I get kinda annoyed when I read sites which have some Chinese characters or Spanish words because it feels like I'm missing out on the good stuff. And now that I'm writing likewise, I understand the satisfaction they get, because some things are better said in one's mother tongue.
That's only half the point. So I got the html codes and applied it, and boy, am I pleased! Just click on any, any word in my blog and you'll get a definition/explanation about it. They even have "kiasu" in their database! Impressive! Only they linked bebel to Augustus Bebel, some guy I don't care two hoots about. But, haih, the wonders these programmers/IT people can create! And to think all the big bucks they'll get out of writing those codes or running a website, and getting high traffic and being hunted down by companies who want to advertise with them. Jangan main-main. Those big guys with thick glasses, funny habits and idiosyncracies may seem like losers and wimps back in school, but in the real world, they rule! Football jocks may have picked on them and punched their noses and dumb blondes may have relentlessly rejected them, but in the end we see a marvellous display of karma. The stupid athletes get beer bellies, permanent knee injuries and drink beer all day long, and those biatches run after the nerdy-guys-turned-superheroes-with-big-bucks.
Interesting, this life.
But seriously, double-click on the words in my blog. Try the Malay words, might be funny what English word they try to link that word to if they don't have it in their database.
Just trying to be

lol. i thought u said u wanted your blog to be lengthier horizontally.
just a clarification, nerds get no where. getting babes, and making chunks of money by being a nerd is just a dumb myth that nerds all over the world reiterate to themselves as bed night stories to help them sleep at night better cause six-pack joe bullies them during the day.
give me a brad pitt body over intelligence any day!
