Boners in the Morning

As promised to Ieka, Susan, Hui Yin, Janice and David, I would research on this topic and blog about it to clear the air once and for all. HAHA!

The question :

Why do guys have boners in the morning?

This is also termed as "morning wood" or "morning tent".

Before moving on, do you know what's a "boner"?

Boner is a slang term for an erected penis. XP

So back to the original question, before I did my research, I was told that guys get boners in the morning because they want to pee.

Guess what, that's a MYTH!

The boner and the need to pee are coincidental.

If guys really do get boners because they want to pee, we would be seeing erected dicks everywhere everyday!!!!!!!

(So Janice was right about this one. HAHA!)

Oh by the way, having morning wood and wanting to pee is called "Pee Horn".

LMAO!

Morning woods are not necessarily caused by dirty thoughts.

Did you watch "The Proposal" acted by Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds?

(If you didn't, go watch it! It's quite a nice movie!)

Anyway, there was a scene where Ryan's family member wanted to come into their room in the morning.

They were pretending to be a couple getting married. Ryan was actually sleeping on the floor while Sandra was on the bed.

So, Ryan quickly rushed to the bed pretending all lovey dovey with Sandra.

Then probably Sandra felt his "morning wood" and gave Ryan a disgusted look thinking that he was excited from all that close proximity.

Then he answered something about it was morning time.

Anyway, based on Answer.com, there are several reasons for "morning wood".

1. Result of deep relaxation.

This is due experienced in deep sleep called REM (rapid eye movement).

REM is a complicated topic (I've presented it in class once, haha).

All you've gotta know is that there are 5 dream stages, first four are non-REM while the last one is REM.

REM is the stage where most vivid dreams will occur.

2. The male testosterone level is at its highest in the early morning during restful sleep, usually built up during the night and at its highest around 4-6 a.m.

3. Boners are considered as a source of increased blood supply to the penis.

Thus, the male body will have several erections at night, just to keep the penis healthy. HAHA!

So, guys...

Go have boners for a healthier life! XP

ps, A totally different topic, while I was researching for this thing,

I saw "Death erection".

Death erection is a post-mortem erection, observed in corpses of human males who have been executed, particularly by hanging.

No offence to the dead but can you imagine a dead body with a boner??

Okay, I'm gonna end it at that. Haha.

Have a nice day!

Clash of the Titans

I just watched this movie with my boyfriend yesterday.

We purposely waited for this movie until 12.05am because the slots before that are full in the cinema.

It was so not worth it.

This movie sucks!

This movie is mainly about the Greek Gods and the people created by them.

Why it sucked:

1. The graphics.

This guy is Sam Worthington.

He acted in as the main character in Avatar as Jake Sully and also this movie as Perseus.

The difference is, the graphics in Avatar was superb.

The graphics in this movie sucks and it was fake as hell.

To portray a God, they make them have this blurred shiny armor that looks like your TV is not working :

WTF???

I'd rather have the gold ring on top of the head. Haha.

(Ken Yang said it is called as a "Halo".)

2. People always said that Avatar is not original blah blah blah.

Clash of the Titans is much worst than that!

This movie is a total copycat!!

It contains a lil' bit of Transformer,

*I can't find a better picture than this but this THING over here looks like a robot when it removes its cloth.*

Harry Potter,

Star Wars,

Anastasia (the Disney cartoon),

Percy Jackson and the Olympians : Lightning Thief

*Medusa with the snake hair.*

...and "God" knows what else.

3. There wasn't a single kiss in the movie.

I mean, I know it is PG13 but...

Hello? Don't you know sex sells????

And a lil' kiss wouldn't harm any 13 year old kid.

4. The whole movie's mission was to kill Kraken, some big sea-monster.

However, the final battle was kinda short and it looked so easy to defeat it.

That's Kraken.

5. Same thing when it comes to defeating this guy from Hell :

6. There were more than 1 monster that have pointy tails.

Can't they get a lil' more creative?

7. They said this woman is the prettiest one in the world blah blah blah.

*The one on the right side of the picture*

*Even having the badass guy from James Bond wouldn't help this movie.*

The woman from point number 3 is wayyy better than her.

8. Basically, the whole story doesn't make sense at all (to me).

My rating for this movie is only 3 out of 10.

Ken Yang even slept halfway of the movie. HAHA!

If you really wanna watch it, please don't waste your money on the 3-D.

Have a nice weekend!

=)

Where Babies are Made?

Last time, my fren told me that when she was young,

her mom told her that babies are made in the armpit.

Haha.

It just occured to me that maybe because armpit hair is like pubic hair.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Ahh... Randomness. XP

ps, I'll be going Redang Island the next 3 days!

Don't miss me! XP

The Hurt Locker

I've never heard of this movie until yesterday when it won

Oscar for Best Picture,

over Avatar.

I mean, I think Avatar was like WOW so I was expecting it to win but oh well... =(

Anyway, I decided to watch this movie yesterday with Ken Yang

(since he downloaded it already)

to see what is it all about.

Ok, firstly, the casts.

This movie is about war so mainly there's only guys.

I think female casts only showed up like 10 minutes (or less) in the screen.

FYI, this is a 2-hour movie.

I must say, as a girl, I'm not a big fan of war movie.

However, the opening was quite interesting.

It started off with this quote :

"The rush for battle is often a potent and lethal addiction,

for war is a drug." - Chris Hedges

Then they have this scene where they used remote-controlled robot to defuse bombs and things like that.

There's also this quite cute guy (I thought he was the main character).

He is Sergeant Matt Thompson in the film.

Guy Pearce in real life.

*Just joking!*

He and his friend (whatever the name is, Not So Cute) had this funny conversation (my personal favorite in the entire movie) when the robot couldn't push some object :

Handsome : Now push it in.

Not So Cute : I can't.

Handsome : What you mean you can't? Pretend it's your dick, man.

Not So Cute : (laughs) How about if I pretend it's your dick?

Handsome : You'll never get in if you did that. Here, let me have a shot.

Not So Cute : Give me a second.

Handsome : No, come on. My dick, man.

God it was hilarious!

So I was thinking,

"Nice opening quote, cute guy, funny conversation... Hey, this movie is really not bad!"

Then, the only guy worth looking at in the entire movie died in the first 10 minutes.

WTF.

Then his position was replaced by this guy.

I don't remember his name.

Let's just call him Ugly.

Even the Camel was cuter.

In my opinion, this movie was just OKAY.

It's mainly on what a war is really about from a soldier's eye.

It showed what soldiers had to go through in Iraq.

Hidden bombs are everywhere and they get sudden attacks too.

Then these soldiers have to diffuse the bomb (it's mainly on diffusing bomb only actually) and kill the bad guys.

However, instead of like 1 whole big troop of armies, their team only consist of 3 people.

So you don't get those fighting and bombing in a large scale thingy.

The reason why I said this movie was just OKAY was because they gave a few examples of what a soldier have to go through and that's it.

They don't really develop the scenes.

I mean, it is good that they showed us what's going on and all but it was too brief.

They don't even explain like what are all the hand signals the soldiers did.

Let me put it this way,

they make you high but not high enough for you to reach orgasm.

HAHA!

That was how I felt.

NOT QUITE REACHED.

To me, there wasn't a proper story line in this entire movie.

I mean, they started off with diffusing bomb in Area 1, then handsome guy died, new guy comes, diffuse bomb in Area 2, diffuse bomb in Area 3, fight bad guys, diffuse more bombs, mental breakdown, go back USA, buy cereals, go back Iraq to diffuse more bombs and THE END.

You would love this movie is you play games like Call of Duty.

The backgrounds were quite similar.

(I played before. Haha.)

Besides, you don't really get all the high-tech equipment.

I think the highest-tech was the remote-controlled robot.

However, there's this 1 scene that was quite inspiring.

The soldier went back USA and was buying cereal at the supermarket.

There was endless number of choices.

To him, however, it doesn't make any difference.

There were far far FAR more important things in life than doing all these petty lil things.

Anyhow, personally, I don't think it deserved the Oscar.

Avatar was better. =)

The Hurt Locker probably gets a 7 while Avatar gets a 9.

(1 being the lowest, 10 is highest)

Maybe the judges were COD fans?

I don't know. XP

ps, "Hurt Locker" is a slang for being injured in an explosion, as in "they sent him to the hurt locker"; "a place of ultimate pain."

Twitter

You've heard about this right?

However, seeing how so little friends of mine have it,

I decided to write a post about it. =)

Basically, Twitter just like Facebook's status update section.

Like it or not, just like Facebook, Twitter is becoming such a trend.

Even the media had to publish the news when some astronaut first tweeted from the space.

*click me*

So what's making it so HIP?

1st of all, I think its because people just have this urge to constantly tell others what they are doing or feeling.

Unlike Facebook, Twitter is more personal to me and we can just post a few rants within a minute.

If you do that in Facebook, probably someone would comment asking you to STFU or something. Haha.

Besides, Twitter only allows us to write 140 characters or less so people can't go on and on and ONNNNnnnnnnnn as if they're writing an essay there. Haha.

Twitter also allows us to "retweet" (RT).

It's a new feature which we can just click on anyone's tweet and republish that same tweet to our twitter friends.

It's like quoting them without having to write their names because it's already written in the retweet.

I also read that some hospitals (maybe not in Malaysia anytime soon though) that they used Twitter in the surgery rooms so that they can keep the family of the patient constantly updated with the situation inside the room.

*click me*

I think that is awesome because surgeries can take up to hours.

For family members, instead of waiting stupidly and nervously for the surgery to end, at least they get some peace of mind on exactly what's going on inside.

However, in contrast from Facebook, we can't comment on someone's tweet.

We have to reply with "@" followed by our friend's account name.

We can also include a few friends at a time in a same tweet.

This not only apply during replies but also for any tweet.

It's so convenient that instead of writing a few times at all our friend's wall, we just write it once.

Even Facebook had to copy this feature. Haha.

Twitter is very popular among the celebrities too.

So we can "follow" them (it's like becoming friends in Facebook) and read their tweets.

However, they may not necessarily follow you back.

So, if you keep your tweets private, they can't see your reply if you write something to them.

You can keep your tweets private or public.

Public means everyone (including the ones that does not follow you) can see your tweet.

If you have personal message for somebody, you can always send a direct tweet which works like an "inbox".

Even CNN have Twitter.

So, you can be updated with the latest news but with just brief sentences.

I stopped following them though because they tweet too OFTEN. Haha.

They were flooding my page!

Anyway, my point is,

go get a Twitter if you haven't!

With love,

Tweety.

Song for Haiti

Everyone heard about the Haiti earthquake that happened on 12th January 2010 right?

However, what you didn't hear was this amazing song :

I know, I know, Wyclef

(the guy who made the funny sound and appeared multiple times)

is as annoying as hell.

They probably gave him more slots because he's from Haiti.

In contrast, Celine Dion was amazing.

I used to be her big fan when I was younger

&

this song just reminded me why I love her. =)

Enjoy!

=)
