The Republic of Awesome

I love the new feature in the Facebook notes that allow you to post your blog posts on Facebook. Makes it easier for a lazy dude like me who doesn’t use RSS.

As I was browsing through Facebook, I came across a post on Nigel “Flyguy’s” blog regarding the Miss World Malaysia website.

Now if you haven’t been living under a goddamn rock, you’d probably have seen Miss Singapore World Ris Low expounding on the benefits of ‘studying steel’,‘leopard preence’ and ‘booms’.

“BOOMS!”

If you haven’t, peel that rock off your crushed body just awhile to click this link.

So I’m thinking if Singapore can produce such lulz worthy material, Malaysia conunfirm also BOLEHH right??

Eh, show a little fucking patriotism la.

So it’s off to the Miss Malaysia World website, only to be greeted by…

…why hello there. I didn’t realise I clicked on a BDSM porn link!

Nonetheless, all is good whenever porn is involved!

Thus, like every other red-blooded guy out there who has watched/will watch/is watching humans copulating on the internet, I clicked on the goddamn image.

A page pops up, with some random nonsense:

Show the world that you can make men be your plaything.
That you can toy with them.
Then, send it out, and show the world just how powerful you are.

Yada yada yada. Female domination porn probably. Porn video descriptions are about as accurate as Stormtroopers shooting at Han Solo.

“You’ve been a naughty boy, haven’t you?”

I glanced down at the video previews – it’s just some dude standing around. Uh oh.

Curiosity always murders the cat however, and this case was no exception.

I clicked on the videos…

…

…much to my horror.

The videos consisted of a rather unattractive Ah Beng posing obscenely. To add a little more jazz to the whole thing, the videos are interactive.

By interactive I mean you get to click on the video and the cheena-looking guy takes his fucking shirt off.

It’s about as much fun as having your teeth pulled out one by one.

So, surely there’s got to be a point to this?

Certainly there’s at least some insightful message behind all the ass slapping and meowing?

Perhaps it’s all just a big joke? A major internet prank?

Goddamnit, Rickroll me already!

Wrong.

The site is likely dead serious.

Dead serious that poking some cheena dude in a flash application will somehow make women feel empowered.

Dead serious that some people might actually get a power trip making Ah Beng take off his shirt. And subsequently share the site with all their friends just to demonstrate how ‘powerful’ they are.

Dead serious that making men your plaything is an awesome and empowering thing to do. Okay maybe it is, at least in the context of BDSM, but I’ve come to realise that the site contains no porn whatsover.

I would probably feel insulted if the whole thing was a deliberately orchestrated femi-Nazi empowerment propaganda program.

However I highly doubt something so intelligent transpired.

A likelier scenario is that the Miss Malaysia World organizers did a cock job of trying to tie in the theme of ‘Beauty is Power. Use with Caution.’ They went straight for the asinine interpretation that power involves getting some poor sod to do whatever the fuck you want.

Ris Low, you have met your match.
