THE DISAPPEARANCE OF HARUHI SUZUMIYA HAS APPEARED IN SCREENSHOTS! Okay, first let's calm down while I breathe through a paper bag; at this rate I may have an asthma attack at any second.

You know I leave Rica with most of the fangirlism in this website (God knows she has enough for an entire basketball team), but right now the gushing fangirl in me has threatened all my other personalities with a megaphone, and thus there will be no peace until this post has been let out. Yes, I'm one...

The Triumvirate of Evil (Rica, The Overlord, and I) have been working on, in and with the Internet long enough to know that: One. The surefire ways to be popular on the world wide web include posting porn, disgusting things, flamebait, and lolcatz. Unfortunately, we have none of those things or...

Elections 2010: Oh, the Kafka-ness of it...

We live in a country where surreal is everyday life, where the improbable happens once the right people will it, and where even the laws of physics are bent out of shape, and most of us have all come to accept it (well, not everybody, just most). To an outsider, our open acceptance and tolerance of corrupt...

Autumn’s Concerto: Why Taiwan’s 2nd Highest...

Meteor Garden was the first Taiwanese idol drama that captured the hearts of many people all over the world. F4 and Barbie Hsu became famous because of this show, they even went here for a visit and their concert was jam packed with fans. I also became a fan of this show and watched the whole series...

It has become a habit for me and Rio to jot down random thoughts that show either how cool our thought processes can be or just how lame we really are underneath our well-guarded facades (Usually, it’s the latter.).
