Things that shock, amuse and amaze me (Part 1)

Lee and Wrangler are considered more trendy jeans than Levi's, here in Sweden I heard. Really? It had really never crossed my mind that the first two brands of jeans would be more popular than Levi's. At least back in the little red dot, almost everyone would own a pair of Levi's but not the other two. Perhaps it's because the first two brands are normally associated with two-bit wannabe rockers.

It's really common for the fire alarms to ring in my apartment building. And all of the incidents were false alarms. We have taken every subsequent ringing with lesser and lesser concern. Until I heard about the fire at Flogsta, that is. Fires are real. And they do occur.

Coincidently, would you run out of your room wearing nothing but your night/sleep clothes? Remember, most people sleep in nothing more than a pair of pants/shorts and T-shirt, and often even lesser. I would grab something to put on before running out. Would you?

And on that, it amazes me how guys have very little modesty. There are men walking about in the corridor in nothing but their underclothes. Remember, we wear nothing more than a piece of triangular/rectangular piece of cloth at the pools. What can be worse than that? That's not a really big deal. Until... some girl makes a fuss about it. Don't you think we are disadvantaged here? If a girl wants to make a big deal out of it, something like outraging her modesty, we'll have to bear the brunt of the blame. Just think of how the ladies stare at you when THEY lose THEIR balance on the bus and THEIR hands hit YOU in the nether regions. It's always our fault for just being there and for just being a man. Unfair. Discrimination. I should sue every time something like that happens. Outrage MY modesty.

The word 'wee' still amuses me for some reason. Some person has that as his nick on MSN and I'm simply tickled by it. Granted he has it in his name. But use your imagination. Wee. Small. Early. Urine. lol!

Daylight comes very early these days. It's bright before 0600hrs and remains bright till 1700hrs or later. I don't get to see the sun rise anymore.

I'm shocked at how some girls here like to dye their hair till the shade of platinum/very light blond. Given that many of them are natural blonds, that light a shade coupled with a little of the natural hair colour, makes them look slutty. And it's not just my opinion.
