If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I just discovered these two hilarious websites. If you are asian, you’ll be able to relate.

My Mom Is A Fob

My Dad Is A Fob

A few of my favorites:

No need for expensive birthday wishes

Me: Happy birthday Dad!
Dad: Thank you.
Me: What did —
Dad: T-Mobile have no more minutes, call me tonight when it’s free. [hangs up]

Gchat status: food coma

Mom: what do you mean by food coma?
[Voicemail received 30 seconds later:]
Mom: Eric, I saw that you had a food coma? Are you okay? Please call back to make sure that you are okay.

Your picture shows you are gay that is no good.

How To Throw A Twilight Party

Filed under: Fun, Health/Diet/Recipes — girlrobot @ 8:27 am



I finally finished reading the Twilight series. The last book was kind of a letdown for me. At the end I was just like…this is the end??? I have to admit the whole series was one of the worst books I’ve been addicted too. I couldn’t stop reading it but there was so much about it that annoyed me. I feel like I am going to have the same thoughts for the movie. I’m 99% sure that the movie will be very bad, but I REALLY want to see it. I can’t wait!!!

Anyways, I was thinking someone should throw a Twilight party and then we could all go watch it. I would if I wasn’t so busy (and lazy). ha ha. Here are some ideas:

Drink blood rimmed martinis


Eat werewolf cupcakes. How awesome are these!

Play pin the tail on the werewolf

And you can’t forget the vampire cookies!


All while having the Twilight soundtrack playing in the background. Stephanie Meyers has great taste in music by the way.

This video is probably more funny if you’re asian and you know how hung up asian guys are about being…unpopular with non-asian girls hehe.

Listen to the song the whole way through..there are some hilarious lyrics!! I have to admit he’s pretty good for an asian guy.

What American Accent Do You Have

Filed under: Cool Links, Fun — girlrobot @ 8:43 am

This is a fun quiz to take and my results were spot on!

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The West
 

Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you’re a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.

The Midland
 
Boston
 
North Central
 
The South
 
The Inland North
 
Philadelphia
 
The Northeast

Funny Farm And Other Games

Filed under: Cool Links, Fun — girlrobot @ 8:01 am

If you’re a nerd and love word games, you’ll love playing Funny Farm! It’s best played with at least 1 other person but the more the easier it is. Boyrobot and I are addicted to unlocking more words!

The point of the game is just about word relation. It starts out with the phrase “On the farm” with a bunch of different boxes connected to it. You have to guess what things are on a farm. Inside the boxes are dashes that tell you how many letters that word has. Some of the boxes connect to each other showing you that they are related to each other in more than one way. When you unlock the outer boxes, it unlocks even more boxes with completely different themes. It’s cool to see how different words can get from one meaning to another.

Other nerdy games to play:
i-poon’s riddle - consists of 50 levels that increasingly get harder
Room escape games - you know the ones where you click and click and hope you get lucky!
Japanese game that tests your visual memory - Reminds me of big brain academy on the DS
Multiplayer minesweeper

Bloggable Quotes 1: Intensity.org

Filed under: Fun — girlrobot @ 8:12 am


The other day I was fixing my bike outside my apartment and some dude walked by and said, in horrible Mandarin, ‘Are you Chinese?’ The only reason why I knew what he asked was because I took three semesters of Mandarin in undergrad (and the only reason I took three semesters of Mandarin in undergrad was because my school had a foreign language requirement and they didn’t offer Korean). To that I replied, ‘Uh, no, I’m not Chinese…’ And he said, ‘Where are you from?’ and I said I was Korean-American. Okay. Then he said, ‘Well, welcome to this country!’

Seriously?

I was like, dude, please tell me you’re joking. So I said, ‘Thanks… I’ve been here for 24 years’
