Qualified, Totally!

I just cooked the most amazing tasting bowl of rice wine tomato mee sua with dried oyster and poached egg. I now declare myself a chef *smug*

Oh, by the way, “what’s Moorpark spelled backward?”


Kraproom.

Sundays At Tiffany’s vs. A Beautiful Mind

When a child has an imaginary friend, she's normal.

When an adult has an imaginary friend, he is schizophrenic.

Where’s the logic?

Question

Why do people label a stray/abandoned cat generally as “domestic short hair” and not simply a stray or a pariah? Domestic. It has such nice ring to it.

Then again why do people label a stray/abandoned dog as “mongrel”, “stray”, and “pariah” and not just simply a domestic short hair/long hair/no hair/whatever?!

Noun 1.
mongrel - derogatory term for a variation that is not genuine; something irregular or inferior or of dubious origin; an inferior dog or one of mixed breed.

Noun 2.
pariah - derived from a Tamil word first used in English in 1613, to refer to the lowest level of the traditional Indian caste system; in English, it is used to mean “a social outcast”; it can be used for anyone also known as Untouchables, very low in society.

pariah dog - ownerless half-wild (?) mongrel dog common around Asia.


Bias much?
