I hate when real talent goes unappreciated..

4:45 AM Ammar



U know wat I hate.. I hate when real talent goes unappreciated.. I was on YouTube.. looking for a song.. and I came across this mash up of Alejandro and OMG with a drum cover.. now this guy playing the drums was BRILLIANT!! And so I went to his channel to see wat other songs he had played and I was really surprised to find that his total channel views were 2891.. So I decided to do a little checking to see if this was good enough.. I looked up the worst musician I knew.. the oh-so-unsure-of-herself Christina Aguilera.. and I found that her total views were 3,435,888!!! Ok fine so the drummer, Tim, started his channel like 2 years later.. but this is not fair!! This guy is really talented and just coz he isn’t a chick who likes to take it all off on TV.. he isn’t famous! Go check him out for yourself.. http://www.youtube.com/user/timlovesdrums
I’ve already said how much I hate reality TV.. but sometimes I just watch the shows for a laugh.. I was watching 'Americas got talent'.. and there wasn’t one hot blonde who was rejected.. and this African American rapper was buzzed off stage.. and a pair of twin-geeky-looking guys playing violin dint even get a chance to sing!! Why? Coz they don’t match the "image".. Wat image? Well for guys it’s this generalized late teenager who has a longish face.. Zero facial hair and a permanent bed head.. yeah bed head.. that’s when a guy spends an hour on his hair to make it seem like he just got out of bed and he doesn’t care!! I can’t believe how wats-his-face from twilight drives millions of girls crazy!!
And for girls.. Well it’s ‘the lighter the better’.. skin AND hair.. and they have to be super-fine.. yeah that’s the expression.. tall.. long-legged.. tight waist and curvy.. well actually curves can be in or out depending on the situation.. for models.. they should be walking-talking-hangers.. and actresses and singers should be slim but not skinny.. there used to be a time when singing was important for singers and acting ability was important for actresses.. but not anymore.. now they just have to be hot.. I’ve seen so many movies where a girl is being chased by a serial killer and and she is acting scared..  she HAS to be wearing revealing clothes! Why?! I’m not saying I don’t enjoy it.. but I wanna know why they can’t get good actors for those roles.. I don’t wanna watch a movie and see that they are acting!! It shud seem natural.. Don’t u think so?!
Arite.. so wat I wanna know today is how much u wud pay for a complete makeover?

I hate it when I get writers block..

3:00 PM Ammar



U know wat I hate.. I hate it when I get writers block.. no, not writer’s block, the album.. actual writers block.. ive been trying to write something for the whole of last week.. and I cant come up with ANYTHING!! I’ve sat down on my laptop like 15 times everyday for seven days.. well not sat ON it.. u know wat I mean.. hmm.. ive been stuck at this last sentence for over 10minutes now.. granted im watching how I met your mother..but that’s no excuse.. HIMYM.. good show.. Doesn’t compare to friends tho.. but still pretty good.. but recently I noticed something.. some of the characters become sort of annoying.. Lily for one.. wat the hell is wrong with her?! Nag nag nag.. isn’t that promoting the generalization of married women nagging all the time? Barney and his suits are always a breath of fresh air.. and the girls.. haa haa.. well.. no complaints there.. the girls are better on HIMYM than on friends..
GAWD its so hot these days.. According to the news today was 106F.. and its horrible.. no wind blowing.. not even a whisper!! And I had to get work done on my car.. got new tyres!! Wohoo!! Hey wat happened to tubes? All the shop had was tubeless tyres! I remember when I got my first bicycle.. with that came the first flat tyre.. and I was shocked to see that there was this whole other thing inside!! Haa haa.. I was stupid at that age.. children are so stupid!! I was watching this video online.. its about a baby.. and his mom put his milk bottle on top of a stoop with sloped sides.. and this lil kid.. keeps climbing and sliding back down for like 15MINUTES!!!! Persistant.. yeah.. but I was still laughing my ass off!!
X-men marathon tonight.. started off with Wolverine:Origins.. great movie for all the clawed-animal fans out there.. intense action sequences.. specially the one where our hairy hero is being chased by bad guys in a chopper.. and also where the two brothers fight it out.. Wade aka deadpool was really cool, that is before he became Deadpool.. his quips were HI-larious.. speaking of deadpool.. hez got his very own movie now and its coming out 2011.. don’t miss it! and Sabre tooth in this was much better than the one in all the other X men movies.. then came X-men.. 10 years gone by and that movie is still one of its kind.. I cant get the shape shifting mystique out of my mind.. DAMN.. I think that says it all.. as always sequels can’t hold a candle to the original.. X2 united was just on the fence for me.. although adding a few more mutants into the mix was a good idea.. X-men3.. too much CGI for my taste.. they steered away from the comics in that one.. phoenix was an alien princess wasn’t she? Instead in the movie they make her out to be some kind of evil alter ego inside jean grey.. hmm.. for someone with a mental block.. this aint half bad is it?
So wat did we learn today? Mutants are cool.. suits are cool.. chicks are cool.. and writers block is a bitch.. and the best way to beat it, is watch movies all day!!
Arite ladies and gents.. I would like to know.. wat is the one X-men superpower u wud want to have?

I hate it when people just stand around to watch when someone is getting beaten up..

2:00 PM Ammar



U know wat I hate.. I hate it when people just stand around to watch when someone is getting beaten up.. I was watching Kick-ass last night.. great movie by the way.. and there is a scene where there are 3 guys beating up an idiot-looking junky..  the ‘super’hero says ‘The three assholes, laying into one guy while everybody else watches? And you wanna know what's wrong with me? Yeah, I'd rather die... so bring it on!’ and that got me thinking.. wat wud I do if I saw a bunch of guys beating on someone? Wud I run to his help? Or wud I run away? Wud I wait for those guys to leave and then help the guy? In a pubic poll, I think most of us wud like to say we wud help the poor arse.. but I seriously doubt many wud actually do it.. so wat is it that stops us? Wat holds us back? Fear? How do we overcome it?
Ok now think of another situation.. u are in the airport waiting lounge.. or in a crowded bus.. and u see an old man limping on crutches.. would u get up for him? Yeah? Ok so wat if its just a simple old guy.. no crutches or anything.. wud u still leave your seat for him? Maybe? Yeah me too.. arite.. so if it’s a guy your age.. no disabilities.. would u leave your comfortable seat for him.. I wouldn’t.. but why not?! That’s my question..
Another thing.. I saw this car crash the other day.. actually I dint so much see it as I deduced it.. where therez smoke.. theres fire.. right? I saw a large group of people standing by the side of the road.. then I saw the broken glass around which confirmed it.. A driver had lost control and crashed into a car parked on the side of the road.. traffic slowed down and I noticed all the drivers rubbernecking.. trying to see wat had happened.. but I dint see any one pull over to offer assistance.. they just slowed down.. to watch.. then went on their way.. that includes me.. and im ashamed of it.. but the thing is that even the people who were already there.. they dint do anything.. all of them were just standing there.. looking over someone elses shoulders.. just so they wud have something to talk about when they get back to their pathetic routine..
I remember when I got mugged.. my friend Abdul and I stupidly decided to walk thru the dimly lit streets to a shop nearby, a lil past midnight.. 2 guys on a bike came towards us.. and like 2 feet away.. one got off and pulled a gun out of his pants.. and asked us for our phones and our wallets.. after we gave up our valuables.. they turned and left.. that’s when we heard someone talking.. looking around.. I saw that there were 2 men standing on balcony of the house closest to us.. they had been there the whole time!! And they did nothing!! They saw us with our hands up.. and they decided to stay out of it!!
So wat is it? Whoz fault is it? Our teachers? Our parents? The media? We all love to read about superheroes or watch action packed movies with vigilante justice.. but when its our turn.. the phrase ‘a deer caught in the headlights’ comes to mind.. wat can we do to change this attitude? This is our time.. our generation is the one which is either gonna fix things or screw em up even more.. so the question today is.. Wat will u do?

I hate it when they make spoofs of great movies..

1:40 PM Ammar





U know wat I hate.. I hate it when some crazy guy takes parts from good movies and spoofs them up.. Yeah ok so sometimes they are funny.. like hot shots part deux, and scary movie.. but meet the Spartans!! 300 was such a well made movie.. The other day I was watching it again.. and scenes from the spoof kept popping into my head! Ruined the whole movie for me.. Also who the hell came up with the Disaster movie!! Ill never get those 88minutes back.. I could have done more than one complete root canal treatment in the time.. could have gone to the supermarket to get groceries for the whole month.. could have rotated my tires.. watched a proper movie..like butterfly on a wheel.. Speaking of which.. if u haven’t seen it yet.. u HAVE to watch it.. Bronson versus Butler! The suspense is spine-chilling!
Another movie with ‘butterfly’ in the title.. Hmm.. Butterfly effect.. 1,2 and 3.. One was really good.. new concept.. great acting.. then 2.. well as sequels go.. it was not THAT disappointing.. but was nowhere close to 1.. and part 3.. OH MY GOD!! Was there ANYTHING good about that movie? shit concept.. shit acting.. shit ending.. I mean for God’s sake.. incest?!! That’s the best they could come up with?!!
Still have to watch ‘clash of the titans’, but the reason I’m putting it off is wats-his-face.. sam worth(less)ington.. I don’t get how he gets these big, Big movies.. Terminator 4 AND Avatar.. and now Clash.. Come on man! Can u get any bigger? 
Ok so my question today is.. Did u think Sam Worthington was a good choice for the lead in Avatar?
