Ban the fucking vuvuzela!!!

Kalao korang layan World Cup (as unfortunately I have, sucked into it just to piss off people by supporting teams going against those they support), you MUST be annoyed by those damn, irritating, annoying, excruciatingly painful MOTHERFUCKINGLY (hado?) painful vuvuzelas going on for a full 90 minutes as well as before, in between and after the games.

The vuvuzelas are nothing but noisemakers that don't do anything for the game, but irritate the whole damn world tuning in and I have no idea why FIFA doesn't have the noodles to ban it already.

Sakit jiwa ok!

Especially when you're watching those 2.30am matches (Malaysian time) and you can't even hear the announcer because you have the volume turned down or you'll wake up the whole damn neighbourhood because those idiots at the stadium are too busy 'proclaiming South Africa's football identity' (by blowing on cheap ass plastic horns made in China?)

I personally think South African football fans are just announcing how sexually repressed they must be, to want to wrap their lips and do tongue acrobatics for 90 minutes and think people are amused.

Now to make things even more fucked up, we have Youtube, which a lot of us also rely on to catch up on all things, including the World Cup.

Now... some genuis at Youtube has decided to come up with a new function that accompanies all videos. See the button between the Settings and Pop Up button just below the video?

Click the top image to enlarge. It's the football icon which is new.

And that's what it looks like. The function? Click the football and ANY video you watch will be accompanied by the FUCKING irritating vuvuzela!!!! Are you bloody joking? This is like a torture device enabled!

Ban those fucking vuvuzelas so at least we can enjoy the second round of the World Cup in peace. Thank God some of the matches, singing has been more dominant. That's a REAL footie match for you....

Not some cheap, plastic blowjob!

Irritated gila babiks ngan vuvuzela nih. Hish!


Korang layan je la lagu anti vuvuzela nih. It's kind of irritating too actually... heh!

Now look what you made her do...

Miss Avril Lavigne, 1999

Avril Lavigne's Malaysian Concert Denied Permission

August 20, 2008 02:59:58 GMT

The Arts, Culture and Heritage Ministry agree to Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party that her 'sexy' act will not coordinate with the image they want to create for upcoming independence day.


Avril Lavigne will not perform in Malaysia on August 29 as scheduled due to the opposition sent by an Islamic movement that deemed her act as too "sexy" for the event leading up to the country's independence day on August 31. The canceled gig, however, will be rescheduled by the organizer Galaxy Group, to a new date which will still need approval from The Arts, Culture and Heritage Ministry.
Based on the meeting conducted on Tuesday, August 19, the ministry decide to give an all-clear to the appeal sent by Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party that fears youths in Malaysia will be influenced by Avril's performance. Speaking on the reason of the cancellation, Shukran Ibrahim who is a senior official from the department said, "It is not timely. It's not in the good spirit of our National Day. If we go ahead with the concert, it is contrary to what we are preparing for."
Galaxy Group, that have not yet given their statement regarding the ban as in press time, promoted the concert even before given permission from the government which is compulsory for foreign acts. It was reported that half of the concert seats have been sold.
Earlier this week, Kamarulzaman Mohamed from Pan-Malaysian told the Associated Press that Avril's sexy image is "not good for viewers in Malaysia." The youth party official said, "We don't want our people, our teenagers, influenced by their performance. We want clean artists, artists that are good role models."
Foreign acts have to abide to the dress code and stage rules set by the Malaysian government if they want to perform in the country which is largely dominated by Islam faith. They require that the stage costumes should cover from chest to knees and that they should not include any drug-related image. Shouting, kissing, hugging and jumping are also banned from the stage.
Last year, Beyonce Knowles preferred to move the concert to neighboring country Indonesia when the rules were applied to her. Gwen Stefani, however, raised the challenge by abiding to the rules and wear 'descent' clothes.

So there you go. One more international artist thinking so much more of the lovely regulations our country comes up with. And we wonder why it's so hard to get big names to come our way, or even if they do, it's way past their prime.

Only a handful conform to our high moral standards, and are worthy of our time.

Notch one more great achievement up for Malaysia.

Wonder what they mean by not in the spirit of Merdeka when the concert's 48 hours away. Oh well.. the mind boggling mysteries of the universe...

Now look what you made her do...



PS - Reuters is quoted to say that it is merely 'postponed'.

PS Pt II - Am on my own to a party. Be posting more later tonight.
