Yes my blog has been deemed dead to some... Oh well...the period finally came after every four years and yeah i'm late in blogging about it. But so what!

Obviously everyone who is no one (snicker) knows what is the World Cup. Did my dear readers notice the little pun which was intended in the title. It has been rather much of a love hate relationship for me in terms of the world cup. I think it rather mad, the hype that has been going for the football sport. Everyone wants to watch and support whatever teams. Interestingly Malaysia supports England mostly due to much EPL, but can one blame us?

Speaking of which, I'm sure Malaysian's alike would've notice the wonderful survey results by reader digest that stated that we are the third rudest country. I really don't know what it is such a big deal. Who in the world, personally, is ever complete polite, kind, generous..whatever it is that you categorize us as courteous...anymore. Back to a previous entry on 'points of swearing' if one can considered foul language as that to be normal and expressive, so where is the line of being rude drawn. If say f*** and a****** is used on such a daily basis. And the citizens want to comment that Malaysians are not rude. Have you seen us on the road? one can't imagine the amount of cursing that comes out when we encounter either a road bully or road dummy.

Back to World Cup...The other day in the paper.. think it was TheStar some journalist had express his concerns of the World Cup endangering our very culture. I think he's too paranoid as it can't just be the World Cup that has affected culture but more so globalisation. The merging of every country into a global community. He worried that the 'roti canai' was not even safe anymore as we know have roti England and roti Spain. So? It's a marketing gimmick just like everything else one sees on television. Take the tosiba and celcom advert. I mean hello???

Just my two cents on that...Do i sound overtly annoyed? Nahh.... just sleepy and cranky. :P
