Mr.Buyot’s Orgy Observations

For the love of God

Filed under: Colors Of Muhibbah, Me, Myself & Eureka — Mr. Buyot @ 10:10 PM

Getting injured is a good thing. It forces you to stop and look back to realize that maybe it was karma hitting you back. Something that you did wasn’t right or something like that. I took the time to catchup with what’s happening in Malaysia from the tube. I’m not much of a fan watching TV, so with an icepack on my ribs I listened to how stories are being told on TV.

Looks like we’re fighting with each other about who can use the term “Allah”. Seriously, is that really an issue? I personally don’t give a fuck what God you pray to. As long as you believe that is your faith & that faith is good for you. All religious text in the world strongly profess that their religion is the best for all mankind. All of them. Including mine.

The real issue that I see here is that insecure people, people who stubbornly refuse to learn what makes other people different, are trying to deflect their own fears by using fear mongering tactics to the rest of the world. I recommend reading Erna’s strong affection towards the real Malaysian way, which kind of reflects my stand against the 1Malaysia concept. It’s an interesting concept and I believe it was a direct copy from Singapore. But we don’t need it to be shoved into our throats. That is because I believe in Malaysia. Critically & affectionately.

In my own life experience, I have seen what makes other people different in body & soul. So far, I can tell you one thing: we are praying to the same divine spirit. We just didn’t make time to catchup with everyone else. With these experience, my faith has grown stronger. Not the other way around.

Allah S.W.T is my God. Mohammad S.A.W is my Prophet. Al-Quran is my Holy scripture. These are the core values of my Islamic faith. And I chose to be liberal about it because I’ve also observed that almost every religion in the world has a similar structure: God, the Prophet & the Holy scripture. Only the names are different. Some added very good visualizations to represent their beliefs. These are differentiation in practical manners. Spiritually, they are almost the same.

It saddens me to see the rakyat wants to fight this out without any use of tolerance & any sense of thinking. They are feeding on fear and that makes them weak.

What do you believe in?

You know, when I saw this tweet and watched the video, I knew I just had to post it up. It’s way to funny & fucking hilarious! Jen Kwok, the comedian/singer in the video speaks about how dating Asian men can change your life. Word to my Asians out there!

Sleeping with the enemy that has major herpes

Filed under: Colors Of Muhibbah, Me, Myself & Eureka — Mr. Buyot @ 11:48 AM

I agree with Raja Petra. We are our own enemies. Muslims have our own set of problems & issues that others don’t really understand & surprisingly, some couldn’t even believe the idea of a problematic religion. Muslims are getting major media airtime just because of the fear sentiments that has been put out about us. It’s the same tactic that some dirty Muslim quarters tried to expel to diss other religions. Sentiments of fear.

Time and time again, we defend ourselves by being ourselves. Over & over again, we’re either being ridiculed, made fun of or shamelessly being thrown insults & unfavourable comments. There is no harm if you want to understand why. It is not wrong for you to ask why.

But it gets dodgy if you try to act as one of us while you are not one of us.

I was with Kris Khaira last night, and he spoke about an unknown country in Africa, Benin. I told him I’ve never heard of it. He asked me do I know why I never heard of it. No, I don’t know I said.

He told me it’s because there is no civil war in Benin. No display of fear, poverty, trouble and nobody is killing each other.

It makes perfect sense.

House of Malaysia

Filed under: Colors Of Muhibbah, Me, Myself & Eureka — Tags: , , , , — Mr. Buyot @ 3:34 AM

House, a short film by Linus Chung was released on Pete Teo’s new project, 15Malaysia. 15 Malaysian made short films, each tells a story about the colors of muhibbah in Malaysia. 15 different directors, each with a personal vision of how to represent Malaysia, in her essence, in a short few minutes. That’s a tough one. Seriously. It’s easier to make a longer duration film. But making it short, throwing out scenes & selecting the very few scenes that matters the most is really really hard. Although my experience in videography is pretty amateur, but I tried and it’s really hard.

This project is about celebrating Malaysia’s birthday. A token of appreciation if you say so. Malaya was independent on 31st August 1957, but Malaysia was born on 16th September 1963 after the inclusion of Sarawak & Sabah. 7 films has been released so far and I personally enjoyed watching every one of them. The truth is, the first 3 was cliche to me. But the 4th one, I think really hits the nail – front & center.

Here’s an interpretation about this film called “House”. (more…)

B1N1, the oldest & longest running disease in Malaysia

Filed under: Colors Of Muhibbah — Mr. Buyot @ 3:56 PM

Since everybody seems to be talking about the H1N1 virus, I do wonder if there’s a day when H1N4 could surface. But hell, from what I’ve been reading in the daily local media, it’s a virus affecting our intelligence. Although we know we human beings are a forgetful lot, but please don’t insult our intelligence. But your biological point of view is valid in a way, but hey, I’ve never thrown the infamous graduation hat. So I don’t want to say much about that.

However, I do want to tell a story about the longest running virus in the world, B1N1. There’s no scientific (maybe not?) interpretation for this, but check this out:

B1N1 virus is a natural subtype virus from the maleuenza (a type of influenza) that causes a common sickness to most men: women.

Now, from what I’ve gathered, B1N1 has been in our male DNA ever since the beginning of time. Neolithic men gather their women in one cave & decides to start a family with a pet purple dinosaur. Greek men prefers group sex, with each other & everyone else. Persian men seems to be the original players from what I’ve gathered, with the ability to hone down a woman with a single touch. They somehow made womanizing an art, convincing them with one statement:

I’m a man full of love & I love you all equally…

Guess where that came from?

But anyway, the real story here is that how deep B1N1 has really infected Malaysian men. Mistresses, second wives, unpleasant divorces. Our local daily seems to be filled with these kind of stories, front & back. Some Datuk married a young celebrity. Some Pak Haji caught with his pants down. Some Datin finally admitted having two husbands. Eh, women also have their own version of B1N1. It’s call M1N1. It’s really bad because it involves personal satisfaction, if you know what I mean.

But are we actually doing something to educate & bring awareness? Or are we just playing the quiet game whereby we just follow whatever is being told to us.

Read my sentence again: follow whatever is being told to us.

We seemed to be that type, the one who follows whatever is being told. When we are told we can marry 4 wives, the world rocked. Not because it’s a religion thing, but because everybody else wants a piece of the action and try their best to allow & emulate the thing we called “best practices”.

So, we are implementing “best practices” in combating B1N1 by scaring everyone about AIDS, about STD, about baby dumpings, but we never, NEVER, teach our kids the common sense of being a normal, typical human being. We tell ourselves to keep secrets from our kids, pretending that it is ok to keep certain things from them. But we forget. And because we forget, the kids just keep doing what they do best: being kids. And yet, you keep telling us that what they are doing is wrong. So, what is right then?

Polygamy is the game. B1N1 is the blame. H1N4 is lame. More on this next week.

Roll about just right

Filed under: Colors Of Muhibbah, Rollin` With My Hommies — Tags: — Mr. Buyot @ 11:53 PM

First of all, big props to Choong Hooi producing this video & congratulations to him for getting engaged. Secondly, allow me to show you how much progress Malaysian rollerblading community has made.

Wow. Seriously wow. I thought, “Betul ke ni?”. Let me show you how skating was like 4 – 8 years ago:

It’s a big difference. The amount of tricks, the creativity. Man, no words to describe the excitement I’m feeling. The best part, I can actually see a 3rd generation of Malaysian rollerbladers. It’s not been long, but it’s been that a while now.

Coming from the 1st generation, so I think, the 1st crew I rolled with was the Shah Alam crew – Abang Hardy’s crew. That crew was one of the early pioneers of rollerblading in Malaysia. Setiawangsa was one of the toughest crew to beat. Big tricks, solid, superb creativity (back then), handrails jumpers, the police. It all started in 1994 and it’s been 15 years since then. I might be off with the years, but it’s been that long since I remember grinding that big fat practice rail in Section 9 Shah Alam. The MESA. The small street battles on handrails: not a Hoax, but enough to make you wet. The early days of being the firestarter of a new industry. The noisy minority.

Then came the KJROLLERS years. Created & formed this crew when I moved back to Kelana Jaya. That pretty much boomed in early 2000. The early involvement with ESPN Asian X Games organisers pretty much made the mark for most of us. Then came the street comps. The local merchandising. The skate videos.

And now, the 3rd generation appears. The skateparks. The new blood. And I’m out of the game. Literally.

Man, the amount of skating done in a short time of our lives is so damn bloody much. And it hurts 15 years later. In the knees all. But it was worth the pain. Worth every bruise.

Keep on rolling boys. I’ll have my kid rolling soon.

The perfect imperfect film maker

That’s Yasmin Ahmad to me. And she left us with this video. I wish for perfect imperfection.

One buck short, but rocking away to the right direction.

Pride flows in my veins when I watched this.

That’s Rahul, band leader of One Buck Short. The band has put together resources & worked on an idea that I’ve heard so, so, so many times repeatedly when I was managing them. You might think I could have listened to one person from the band about the idea, but actually, all 4 of them, and including Sen, was talking all about it from day one I took over from Adrian. 2 years down the road, it finally came true. And it’s all because of themselves. That’s how you make it big in the music business, from my point of view. With your own pure effort. More excitingly, it’s with your friends. In music, you need all the friends you can make. Good, real friends.

I’ve posted some details about their event recently, you need to check it out & make yourself there for it. It will be a rocking show!
