White, Black, Brown, Beige...and the problems thereafter

Color is a cool thing. Have a car painted White and it looks ultimately gorgeous and glamorous and if your gonna play it safe, have in painted in Silver instead. No need for intensive care because your car will ALWAYS look clean. But on the other hand it is the most dull color made and created for lazies by a bunch of imbeciles who think Bugatti is a type of corn.

But then again, color does have its impact on people in a way only some of us can imagine. And imagination is said to be limitless, yet in this case i do concur that you need to be it to believe it. Make sense? Rather.

I am now living in a world full of color, diversity, uniqueness, adventure, and hatred. Yes, hatred. With all the greatness that color has brought into our god forsaken lives, it has also given birth to a means of which we can label others with. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is where my hatred resides.

Indians are Black, Americans are White, Chinese are Beige, Malays are Brown, etc. We somehow associate race with color and that is not where it ends. Its the "description that follows" which creates a problem the world will never see and end to. When i was young, my dad always said, " Zac don't talk to strangers...especially the black ones." As a child you don't really question, you just follow, because they say the adults know best. Years go by and you finally begin to open up to the world because the grip and influence your parentage had on you loosens up, the mind finally has its own free will and if you so wish it, you CAN question these things.

On my own i find that the way people look at races and color has caused a major gap between them and it is just so wrong. I know, because i feel it. For 25 years, i feel it. I am mixed, in race and color. People consider me lucky, assuming that i can walk in both worlds. It does sound like an advantage don't it? But it comes at a price, a very expensive tag to be precise. No one ever sees you as their own. You are not accepted. You don't belong. Because of your color, your race.

You see, we live in a world where people label others by those means. Malays are lazy, Chinese are money minded con men, the Indians are rough and crooks with a forked tongue. Does color determine what we are as individuals? If your answer is yes i shall advise you keep reading.

Imagine if there was no color or race. But you and I still remain the same individuals with the same personalities. How will you judge Kumar, Seng Chee, and Firdaus? They are nothing more than names. You would be forced to judge them by their individual personalities, attitude, character. That is because you have no other means to label them, no race, no color. Now don't get smart with me and say that we still have OTHER means to judge. Like appearance, dressing, language, education, and such. These are mere excuses given by people who are afraid of knowing the truth. Afraid that their pre-judgement be proven wrong. Afraid of differences.

The differences we have as individuals is what makes us special and unique. Deny this and you will be a hypocrite. You chose to pay premium for that dress because its fresh of the line and no one else has it. You chose not to buy the same car as your colleagues. You choose different colored clothes because you don't wanna look the same everyday. You chose. Not me, not God, but you. You accept differences in almost every aspect of your life. So why cant you accept the differences in humans?

I remember asking a gentleman why he had bought a Skoda over a BMW, which he could well afford. He tried each and every way to justify his act of being "different and unique" even thought the Skoda was butt ugly irregardless of the fact that its power house came from VW. He then ended it with a statement, " No matter the brand or how different it is from the other, a car will always be a car. And i love cars. All of them."

Regardless of race and color, we are all humans. And we deserve to be judged as we are. Humans. Not by race and color. Take a moment to digest this and see me for who i am. Look beyond the skin and the name. And so that you understand where i'm coming from. Living with the fact that i could represent 2 races, means that i can be denied by 2 races as well. And in this time and age, denial seems to be the easier choice for most. Shall we make a change?

Happy The New Year

So, its Christmas again and Sunway is jam packed as usual. Getting from my house to Sunway Pyramid is like lining up to kiss the Pope's finger, I think. Its pretty much the same with any other celebration that happens here.

Speaking of traffic jams, I have devised a plan to rid our cities of these relentless jams and trust me, I do have the highest confidence that it WILL work. Now, lets just take a look at whats going on these days. Notice that traffic has been rather smooth these days especially during rush hour? Yea, and why is that? Its because there is no school going on in December.

Its all about schools. The thing about schools is that the government tries its very best to open up as many schools as they possibly can afford in every major township in KL. Which by all means, are already jam packed thanks to us whom are required to pay taxes. Its pretty much alright if you have school buses roaming the streets before and after school hours but the main problem lies with the parents and overly pampered kids.

Why in all things heavenly, must every single parent INSIST on sending their children to school themselves. Think about it for a moment and lets do some math. You get maybe say 500 annoying teens with puberty issues being ushered to school by maybe 400 grumpy parents in possibly 350 cars at the very lest, every single day, to each school. If you have a brain larger than a lobsters I'm certain that you have noticed a minority that, in all their greatest attempts, cant send their kids to school in a car. Thats probably because you have caused a jam and they have lost their jobs for turning up late for work far too many times and have to give up the rights to own a car. Hence forcing their pimpled kids to either take the bus or crawl to school.

So i do hope you now see the root of the problem. Lets try getting rid of the problem shall we? Now what if, we stationed a police officer under MY command at every possible entrance and drain in every school. We shall then issue summons for every vehicle that isn't a school bus that drops freckled faced kids to school. And every time the same vehicle gets summoned....WE DOUBLE IT! They can keep paying if they so wish and it should earn me the rights to buy a Lamborghini in less than a year.

And if that doesn't work, we'll just shift all the schools out of town and force everyone to stay in dorms with a piece of coal for entertainment. They can then give it a name and play with it as how they do their privates and that shall be all. No more parents being a nuisance in traffic and that shall keep the Eco people in check because CO2 levels will drop drastically, causing them to divert their attention away from cars. In due hope that the Government will decide to drop fuel prices so that we can enjoy bigger engines with a little lest guilt. And i can finally see a whole lot less Toyota's on the road and that shall be heavenly.

I may not be the first person to think of this sweet solution and there may be a possible reason as to why no one else has made this public so far. Remember those Presidential assassinations? Yea, you get the drift..

I've got issues...with lousy drivers...

I am back...FINALLY! I havent really got the whole story bout the Mexican yet but i can tell u this much.

One fine morning, some dodgy Mexican dude wakes up to his dog barking (as usual). He goes out to check (as usual) and Rover comes in gleefully wagging its tail with the typical postman's arm torn from his body with the daily mail. Well, the guy takes a look at the mail and there's the mortgage and the other usual red bills..he pauses for a moment to think it through.."I got a my pay cut...mortgage is long overdue..hmmmm...i should pay..or else...mmmm..." Guy goes back in to change and then heads back out to his pick up, only to find it low on fuel and decides, " I shall fill up my pick up today...YES! Thats what i should do" and totally forgets about the overdue mortgage...again...

BUT! There are far more pressing issues than how the economic crisis was caused by a random Mexican dude...there's this thing i have going on with how people drive and the system.

Ya see, the really big problems on our roads are not caused by speeding, or drifting round roundabouts. No, they are caused by people who are thick.

Take inconsiderate parking for example, you don't see Brad Pitt leave his car across someones drive. The Sultan would not double park on a narrow street. And Stephen Hawking would not leave his wheelchair sticking out into traffic. Thats because these are clever people who think about the consequences of their actions. Morons on the other hand, do not.

They don't have the brain capacity. They think, "I want to go there so I shall park here." Any further thinking could cause their whole head to boil, and, as a result, they should not be at the wheel of a car.

I think much the same applies to people who drive very quickly pass schools. I don't do this. If you have read this far without exploding from the effort, you probably don't either. But the local Ah Beng and Mat Kool in their lime green and purple neon mobile disco on wheels thinks, "I am with a girl. If I drive fast down here, she will sleep with me. That is good."

In this respect, they are like lobsters. Proportionately speaking, lobsters are the least intelligent creatures alive, apart from Samyvellu. If they were the size of a man, their brains would be no larger than a pinhead. As a result, they know how to eat, shag and bite your finger if you try to put them into a pot of boiling water with bay leaf. And would you give a lobster a Driving License? Quite.

Only last week, i was driving on the Kesas behind a man who was driving at 30. Maybe he doesn't like speed. Or maybe he's been hit by the fuel crisis. Both of these are very good reasons for travelling at the same speed as the Pope. But to shake your fist and flash your lights when you are overtaken suggest that, most of all, you are a cloven hoofed imbecile. If i were in power, I would remove his License, his car, and all of his money so that he could never buy another. I would also remove his testicles to ensure that his seed does not get into the gene pool.

In the meantime, however, I propose we do away with driving test which demonstrates only that you can stop and go on a hill, parallel park by counting plastic markers (which never exists in the real world), and 3 point turn out of a designated area large enough to park 2 cement mixers with picnic tables at the side. A cow could do that if you could somehow get it behind the wheel. And whats the point of the multiple choice section? That you can operate a Mouse and that you are lucky? Neither will stand you in good stead when it's raining and late and your're trying to get out of Pasar Malam, in which you were never suppose to enter with a car anyway.

Instead, I suggest that we ask everyone to sit for an IQ test instead. A high mark indicates the candidate is bright enough to work out what controls in the car do what and that "R" is for "Reverse" and not "Race".

I have no clue where the benchmark should be, but we set a number and anyone who fails to make the grade is forced to take the bus instead which i am more than certain that our Government would be nothing less than happy with.

This way, there would be no need for speed traps and highway patrols shutting roads because some idiot has crashed. Intelligent people know what the steering wheel is for and what pedal they should press when they are heading for a tree.

Hello Purpose!

Good morning, i hate writing...i do...passionately despised writing.. Yet for some unknown reason i have decided to start a blog and i have not been able to see its purpose as well.

Purpose is something that we usually take for granted. I really cant comprehend as to how some people manage to do things without having a purpose in mind. At times they do claim that there is a purpose to what they do, but is it truly theirs? Or maybe its a purpose someone else had engraved into them? What i do know is that if we don't find our purpose in the things we do it is as good as losing ourselves.

So maybe this blog is a place for me to "lose myself" and get away from the chains of reality and how humanity has gleefully decided how this world works. As i see it, humanity is falling deeper into their own individual selves and slowly discarding the essence of which makes us human.

There are but a few things that i will constantly highlight in this blog.

1) Racism

2) My own unbiased opinion to why things happen

3) My music

4) The truths of reality

5) An in depth glimpse of where I've been, where i am now, and where i shall be.

6) Oh! And cars.....god i love them to bits...

7) Finally...religion. Which i think i may get an awful amount of bad remarks for, but who cares.


I guess in the duration it took me to type all this, i may have found a purpose to this blog.

I'm gonna tell you a story of how 1 Mexican guy caused the economic crisis in my next post so stay tuned.
