My seatmate Sikh Atar was late. And he lived just a stone’s throw away from school. Our Reading teacher was livid. This was back in Grade 6, when people would get livid if you get late, or if you don’t… Read More ›

Hickam’s Hickie
Neurologist Shipper Jack Knight has made a very interesting commentary on my high-level paranoia that I have all sorts of diseases. “Are you aware of Hickam’s Dictum?” she texted. “It’s sort of the opposite of Occam’s Razor of parsimony. It… Read More ›
Supergirl As A Goo
I am presently geeking out on the Peter David run of Supergirl. For most Supergirl is Kara Zor-El, the cousin of Superman, and that’s also the concept I grew up with, and I really love those 60’s Supergirl stories where… Read More ›
Hoping For A Pene-Kula
Recently my dad has added himself to the group of people asking me to download stuff. Apparently everyone just assumes that I lay in bed all day either staring at the ceiling, whining that it’s so hot, or forming my… Read More ›
All Sorts of Pointlessness, But Time To Get This Out
Back in 1996 when I was in 4th year high school I started telling the girls in my class, in many, separate occasions because they kept on doing the damn thing repeatedly, that they should not comb their hair in… Read More ›
Hello, Linda Danvers
Recently asked Benefit of the Daw if she’s friends with Pruit Igot, then realized the tone with which I asked the question so expectedly she asked, “crusheth mo?” I said no of course not, on the contrary I’m asking if… Read More ›
BW
One of my favorite superhero groups of all time is the Legion of Superheroes, particularly their early adventures as told in Adventure Comics in the 60’s, written by John Forte and illustrated by Edmond Hamilton and the magnificent Curt Swan…. Read More ›
Staring Contest, Die
I’ve written a year ago in Smoketh’s prune state that even inanimate objects were sensing her poverty. At her lowest–when she would describe herself as a lowly chesa, something lower than a prune–even the alarms in National Bookstore in Rob… Read More ›
I Want You To Do This With Your Tongue
I don’t usually get to talk to anyone these days, unlike in the past three years when you only need to bring a pack of MSD to the callroom and everyone would chat away and there would be loads of… Read More ›
Moriarty. Gaaaaaah!
When asked recently why I wouldn’t cut my damn hair off I’ve thought of two new reasons to add to the multitude of excuses that have accumulated through the years much to the major karindihan of everyone. “Among other contributions,… Read More ›
At Around This Time: Five Years Ago
Because they said you shouldn’t forget. I don’t know who said it or if it’s even real, it’s just the sort of thing someone would say in a B-movie or B-book or B-comic book. Speaking of B-comic books, have just… Read More ›
Pruning and Popping
Was scrolling through my old blog entries and chanced upon a really old one last year when I was mocking, ridiculing, debasing, and all-around laughing at Smoketh’s state-of-affairs as an unpaid fellow, in particular her poverty. How she would roll… Read More ›
The Art of Medicine–Oh Yeah.
In a fantastic season 4 episode of The X-Files entitled Clyde Bruckman’s Final Repose Clyde Bruckman is a sort of clairvoyant whose precognitive abilities are limited to knowing how a person will die…. Read More ›
The Ketobora Phenomenon
Back in 2008 when we were first year residents Tessieloopagoop got this perplexing text message from a nurse in the pay floors: “Informing Dr. Ketobora that patient (name) is dyspneic.” This caused a general scratching of the head as no… Read More ›
Plug Stuff With Stuff
And so it was one fateful night that I discovered that music can give you a higher high. You know junkies, they yearn for new, escalating sensation of high with the substances they are addicted to, hence the phenomenon of… Read More ›
A Second Call For Mark!
In the total absence of things to talk about being in the current zombified state of hell-owship, Frichmond, Smoketh, and I started waxing nostalgic. They didn’t have any new, exciting tales of love and unhealthy sex to offer. Nobody was… Read More ›
Positively Providential, Said Smoketh
Smoketh had a rather disheartening experience today in the hospital, hence the five lurs being lurred all at the same time. Truly, positively providential could turn into a negatively…. see, even my alliterative abilities are failing. Positively providential could turn… Read More ›
Premature Whinings
Last graduation each graduate received a fun, tiny Oblation trophy–perfect for endless batch peekchurifications with all sorts of strange/erotic/esoteric poses. Marth V has done peekchurification wonders with all sorts of weird implements in the past, so an Oblation trophy was… Read More ›
Yung Tipong Walang Effort sa Pagsusulat, Kung Ano Na Lang ang Maisip
Maraming salamat sa lahat ng nagbigay bati sa aking kaarawan, kahit in general weird ang pagiging non-existence nito. Kahit hindi na dapat ito big deal sakin dahil hindi naman sya ganun ka-special, in real life, ang tanda-tanda ko na ay… Read More ›
Gee Whiz Fun With Thymes and RD-Kid
Finally saw a movie in the theater again after a long time with RD-Kid and Thymes. Whenever I watch with them we turn into those annoying people who talk to each other and give endless comments and laugh loudly, so… Read More ›
