Dream Job?
I don’t generally like to post whole articles, but the OG link seems to have been taken down. I’ve bolded the important statements.

Ask A Korean! - Answers to all the questions Jason... →
Sam: The answers you have been searching for your entire life.
Since coming back from Seoul, I have still been on a Korean bent. Largely due to my intense googling for pictures of Hyori and Park Myung Soo videos (so funny cause he’s so ugly).
I wish I read this blog earlier so I didn’t have to pepper Herng nonstop with basic KRN-related questions. Also could have saved me years of...
Lookbook: OMG HOT CHICKS THAT DRESS WELL →
Sufu wandering led me to Lookbook.nu. This is apparently where all the pretty stylish girls go to put pictures of themselves. The absence of corniness is incredibly refreshing. No Ugg boots or sorority t-shirts to be found here.
Interesting note: many of the girls are young and manage to put to look fantastic using only cheap stuff from Zara and H&M. However, the people who spend the most...

Seoul
I’m at the Seoul airport right now waiting to get on my flight back to Hong Kong. It was a great week and here are some things I learned:
Trash cans are undervalued. There is a severe lack of them in Seoul.
Korean women might have the best legs in Asia. Maybe it’s just the constant heels, but I love it when women keep their shit together.
The anti-white people sentiment is pretty...
WatchIn honor of my being here in Korea, here is Hyori shaking her ass.
Realization
I have come to the realization that I have only had one consistent passion, obsession if you will, for my entire life: clothes. I’m going to have to get in that field someway somehow because otherwise I will just be wasting everyone’s time.

Corporate Correspondence
jakoblodwick:
45 minutes ago, I receieved an email from the CEO of Citibank.
Dear JACOB LODWICK, I want you to be among the first to know about the bold steps we are taking at Citi to be the premier, global, fully integrated financial services firm. Our objective is to create for our customers an experience in which services are seamless, ...
Acquitted!
Your boy Kells is back on the prowl! Justice has been served! For the embetterment of the general population (over the age of 15)! Hits for everyone!
Truly a great testament to the American justice system. I bet those jurors were just sitting in that room playing some Ignition (remix), really looking within themselves and asking: “Do you want to live without any more of this...
50 Cent calls T.I. a Snitch →
50 Cent disses somebody? Must be time for a new G-Unit album.
This time Fif goes in on T.I., who has been recently sentenced to only a year sentence and 1000 hours of community service for possession of a bunch of machine guns while being a convicted felon.
“Nowaways this rap shit aint adding up. How n—-s get caught with 10 machine guns, only get 12 months?
Oo-weee, don’t talk to me. If you...
Finally: a true Macbook competitor
Hewlett Packard released the Envy 133 through their subsidiary brand Voodoo. Voodoo operates within HP much like how Lamborghini operates within Audi. I’m surprised it took this long for PC companies to take a more design oriented approach to computer making. Don’t they know consumers like pretty things?

The Infamous Chinatown Bus Routes: Capitalism at... →
I’d still give the Ultimate Hustler title to the Jews, but I’ll be damned if Chinese people aren’t at a close number two. Granted, Chinese immigrants are hustling to sell bus tickets while the juden influence wars and foreign policy (holla at the Rothschild family!).
As New York as it gets.

Politics and the English Language by George Orwell →
“In certain kinds of writing, particularly in art criticism and literary criticism, it is normal to come across long passages which are almost completely lacking in meaning.”
Why do they not make this required reading in school?! Maybe because then teachers will have to acknowledge all the empty rhetoric forced upon students.
Thanks Sam, for making me aware of this.

NBA Finals Prediction: Lakers in 5
DISCLAIMER: OBVIOUSLY I SHOULD HAVE PUT THIS IN MIND, BUT THIS PREDICTION IS MADE WITH THE EXPECTATION THAT DAVID STERN WILL LET THE GAMES PLAY OUT AND NOT TRY TO MILK THIS SERIES FOR ALL IT’S WORTH. OBVIOUSLY THAT WON’T HAPPEN.
Just wanted to publicly put on the record that I think the Lakers will win in 5.
This pick is completely uneducated and spurned by the following things:

Obama finally declares victory
Jesus, that took long enough. Once Hilary slipped, she had almost no chance of climbing back. The media treated Obama as the de facto nominee of the Democratic party long before he announced his victory tonight.
I am still rather ambivalent about Obama as my president, but I will readily admit that it is largely a natural response to the kind of idol-worship he gets from my college-aged...
Pharrell’s Bape G-Shock covered in black diamonds by Jacob the Jeweler
No doubt taking a cue from Nigo, this is supposed to be Pharrell’s last diamond dusted G-Shock since all the lames are now copying. Honestly, it doesn’t even look very good, it’s just an awesome idea and a big ‘fuck you’ to watch purists. I find the fun in most of Nigo’s jewlery is...
Coach's New Flagship: not that impressive
Coach recently launched their new flagship store here in Hong Kong. It is in a great location in Central, Hong Kong’s financial district and premiere shopping district, at the base of Lan Kwai Fong. However, it’s really not very impressive. Let me go ahead and say Coach itself isn’t very impressive. In my mind, the brand conjures up images of corny high school chicks. ...

– - NYT article on Tiger Woods’ “immortality” (link) Yet another article to slip in the Tiger Woods = God file. It’s not particularly bad, but poses no new answers to the Tiger mystique. In fact, for all the writing in the piece about Tiger as a brand, it’s articles...
