Quarter of Men think wife needs boob job!!!

22 02 2009

plastic-surgeryToday I came across this article which says quarter of men think wife need boob job.
Source: ~Link~
Extracts:

“Almost a third said it would spice up their sex life and 19 per cent reckoned plastic surgery could save their marriage.”
I find the above statement as a lame excuse to divorce rather. Spicing up sex life comes in many forms: cosplay, spanking (ask mr spankalot …lol), dirty dancing, good foreplay etc.

“Nearly a quarter of men (23 per cent) said they missed the body their wife had when they first met.”
Come on… I guess the wife pretty feels the same when ur 6 pack abs turn into 1 big fat piece of lard resulting what people so nicely call the “pot-bellied” or the “beer-bellied”. However, I think working out to be attractive for each other do spice up love life of couples. With that i determined to lead by example by maintaining my figure now… (I exercise regularly).

“Over 35 per cent of men said they would never tell their wife she needed plastic surgery as she would be too offended but 17 per cent said they would approach her because she might be open to their suggestions.”
LoL…most of the guys will be asking for their own head chopped off if they ever tell their wife “You look bad…You badly need a plastic surgery.” I can imagine my puny head being chopped off and hung on the roof of a sky scraper.
Anyway, ladies …b4 u ask ur hubbies “Am I beautiful/attractiveness/pretty?” …We know what answer u want already…so please do self check and do something about it if u haven’t… coz u know ur hubby won’t tell u that u need a plastic surgery…

Anyway, maintaining a marriage isn’t just about remaining physical attractiveness but a total disregard for it do dampen the spirits. I told my wife: “Let’s plan in future to exercise to stay healthy and attractive for each other.” She nodded and agree…Eventually she will not look as attractive as I first met her…but the effort to do so makes her truely attractive to me. Guys, if you want ur wife to remain attractive…try doing it urself first. Stop lazing in front of ur tele watching EPL, while gorging on food and having ur pint of beer…get up and play soccer or ur favourite sports.

Sex Trade Deeply Wired in Our Brains?

20 02 2009

sex_tradeSex scandals never failed to intrigued us and sexual favors/trades never ceased. Since primitive times, men are known to be involved in sex trade/favors. This led me to a question: “Are human brains wired to sex trade?”. A search led me to an article with some scientific explanation.

Some important points/Extracts:

“The exchange of resources for sex – referred to by scientists as nuptial gifts – has occurred throughout history in many species, including humans. The male of the species offers protection and resources to the female and offspring in exchange for reproductive rights. For example, an arranged marriage can be considered a contract to trade resources,”

“We have seen many examples where people do this out of necessity, but we still see these tendencies in people who are already well provided for. In addition, there are predictable, sexual differences in the types of exchanges attempted. Men are more likely to attempt to exchange investment for sex, females were more likely to attempt to exchange sex for investment,”

Investment for sex appeared to succeed in about 25% of the cases. Benefits offered for sex (amongst others) were tickets to the U-M versus Ohio State game; studying assistance; laundry washed; a Louis Vuitton bag; voice lessons. 27% of men and 14% of women attempted to exchange resources for sex, while 5% of men and 9% of women exchanged sex for resources. 14% of men and 20% of women had been offered resources for sex, and 8% of men and 5% of women were offered sex for their resource.

OMG… we are not talking about prostitutes here but students/politicians/Office people (whom do not trade their body directly for cash for livelihood).  Hypocrisy seems to take another form…

Anyone wanna rent CornLord for a night? Juz Joking…. :P





Help! My Wife hates Valentine’s Day

8 02 2009

valentine-dayValentine Day is a time for showing your love to your special one by showering him/her with gifts, flowers or treating him/her to a good romantic meal @ some classy restaurants. My wife is probably classified as the most unromantic woman on the surface of the Earth when it comes to Valentine’s Day.

This is because I will suffer a scolding, tight slap and a kick in the groin (I am exaggerating..LoL). what will really happen, she will rant @ me for not being thrifty. My wife will point out that businessmen to raise prices of gifts, flowers or meals unnecessary on the over hyped Valentine’s Day. After all, she reasoned everyday can be a Valentine’s Day if she is with the caring person she loved who will shower her with thoughtfulness.

I do agree with her that Valentine’s is a hyped up events together with customary wedding dinners and Chinese New Year etc… In my point of view, festivals served to remind people of some meanings.For instance, CNY (love for one’s family, reunion) ’s meaning will be lost if you have to put a false front entertaining relatives you do not like. My wife and I certainly shared the same brain’s wave length…. everyday can be a festival/event, when u injected love and meaning to it.

Not to offend anyone but my wife thought that she is one of the smartest lady and not some dumb blondes which make his/her other half a poorer man by giving the $$$ to some unknown shrewd businessman. I loved her not just because she did not make me poorer during Valentine’s day but because it’s really hard to find someone who the same brain wave length nowadays. Don’t you agree?

(P.S.. I going to buy gifts after post V Day for her … for seeing the ruse of the shrewd businessman)

7 02 2009

toiletbowlThe wierdest news of 2008 goes to “Woman sits on boyfriend’s toilet for 2 years“. The news came in first with 80% percent of the poll.

Goodness me! Weirdness and  Stupidity comes in pairs, don’t they?

Read the following extracts of the news:
“…it appeared the 35-year-old Ness City woman’s skin had grown around the seat. She initially refused emergency medical services but was finally convinced by responders and her boyfriend that she needed to be checked out at a hospital….

“…Boyfriend told investigators he brought his girlfriend food and water, and asked her every day to come out of the bathroom. And her reply would be, ‘Maybe tomorrow,”’ Whipple said. “According to him, she did not want to leave the bathroom…..”

OMG…. normal people will call for help if they cannot get their butt off toilet bowls in the next hour. I am amazed that she could stay in toilet for 2 years!!! BTW I am now stuck to my computer chair, eyes glued to the computer screen due to beautiful women, computer games, corny wierd news, interesting articles on the internet. But there is only shit and pee in the toilet and nothing else…OMG…how to get glued there?

Girls need SUPERMEN for Boyfriends???

29 01 2009

supermanReading Lisa’s blogpost:  (here) as well as having a conversation with a colleague stating that a guy needs to be either handsome, rich or more well educated than the lady in order for the relationship to sustain prompts me to write this blog entry.

I do agree with Lisa to a great extent but I want to bring a different light to the subject. Most of Asian guys have this inferiority mindset when comes to dating girls who are richer, far more good looking or more educated. That is kind of sad. However yes I say however, girls do help to contribute to that mindset besides our Asian Culture. Among some female youths I talk with casually, (yes the younger generation and what era are we in now???) they said they would want to have a rich bf to support their spending. Some say they wish guys are more well learned, witty and knowledgeable. So girls are actually contributing to a “I want a SUPERMAN as my boyfriend” mindset…making all guys subconsciously want to be superman..LOL He is suave, wear sexy underwear, muscular, knowledgeable about planets, can look nerdy and cute @ times…strong and can fly to save the damsel in distress… (I wonder if my post will increase the sales of red briefs).

As the girls grow older and mature, they ditch this “superman as boyfriend” mindset and having the right kind of expectation in relationship. So do guys….sadly to say guys somehow is slower and less receptive to changes.

Conclusion, guys and gals need to ditch this type of mindset…

Young girls out there, u need to stop cultivating the “superman as boyfriend” mindset. (in fact, confident guys often seen as superman somehow)

Guys, u need to stop thinking that a good and long term relationship depends on $$$, looks or education. It’s about personality and confidence! You do not need to wear red underwear, all u need is to wear confidence. (there is difference in confidence and arrogance…a thin line in fact)

Bye…I going off to check the sales of red man briefs now…

Donald Trump = Cao Cao? (RTK in today’s view)

28 01 2009

3kingdomsAfter watching Red Cliff 2 and discussing about Red Cliff 2 on shoutbox…Fellow Pingster blue8118 exclaims that then Cao Cao is like Donald Trump. It gives me the thoughts of What will the characters of Romance of the 3 Kingdoms be like in Today terms.

OK first of all, we look @ the management level:

Cao Cao: An Authoritarian,Entrepreneur who is ruthless, determined, confident and ambitious. He is also the person who leads his people efficiently in his conquest. Leadership style: Rule with iron fist, Discipline and Determination. In today terms, he is Donald Trump. He is unsympathetic with followers/subordinates who failed their task . “You ARE FIRED!”  comes out from his mouth if they failed. I see the being fired from the job equates to beheading in Cao Cao’s times. However, He is the one of the most successful businessman who is unrelenting in achieving the goals he set out for.

Liu Bei: Leadership style:  Laissez-Faire, laid back depending on his trusted subordinates.
Liu Bei is the type of fatherly figure boss who let u do pretty much on your own. He is like the old fashion boss of mid nineties. Most of the job assignment he delegates to someone who he trusted alot and likes to socialize alot by golfing out with business associates. Conservative in expanding businesses and hope to keep whatever he owns. His father or fore fathers tend to be the entrepuener and he owns the company as a heir.

Sun Quan: Young and fearless…he assigned task which are achievable by his standards and expect them to finish it. He is successful, young inspiring entrepreneur in today terms. However, @ times he tends to set targets too high for his subordinates judging by his own abilities. He is willing to learn from mistakes which makes him better from time to time.

Next we look @ the talents under the management:

Zhuge Liang A.K.A Kong Ming: He is the genius of the generation, one which all held in awe. However he is not good in socialising and people management. Unlike the Red Cliff movie which paints Zhuge Liang in the most beautiful picture, in real records, Zhuge Liang had a few people management problems  (e.g wrong delegation of task to proud and impractical  Ma Su) and conflict between a capable young Wei Yan. He isn’t good in socializing and managing relationship…Failed in guiding and groom Liu Chan (Liu Bei’s son) with most of his effort concentrated mainly on winning wars and expanding Shu which Wei warded most of the attacks successfully. Top programmers, Engineers and surgeons belong to the category. Experts in their fields and very dedicated to their job. Grooming is not their forte.
Few people comes to my mind when i am thinking of Zhuge Liang’s traits…Albert Einstein..Did Albert Einstein groom another great scientist who we know of?

Zhang Fei: Fearless, straight forward and complains when things are not going fair for him. He is capable in the task given but often frustrated when he puts lots of effort and yield little results. There is a big group of working class which falls into this category. He is poor in choosing right time to convey his fustration resulting in offending people @ times.

Guan Yu & Zhao Yun: Faithful and loyal servants who is very capable and familiar with the management and his work scope. This translate to people who often win the long service awards and held in deep respect by staffs around him.

With that i closed this chapter of romance of the 3 kingdoms… People may ask me why is there no Zhou Yu (one of the main char) in the main discussion?…I think he is a all rounder…not known as brilliant as Zhuge Liang but was still held in high respect and regards by people around him. He is also family oriented and had a great love life.. In fact, many would like to be Zhou Yu who also maintains good relationship with his boss as well as subordinates…In my personal opinion he is the most successful advisor in terms of happiness in his job. He is in fact my dream character rather than Zhuge Liang.

Another dose of analysis from Corn Ming.





Red Cliff 2 – Corn Ming’s Review

20 01 2009

chibiFirst of all, the movie do not follow the main storyline of Red Cliff battle of Romance of the 3 Kingdoms or historical findings. If you go for the movie to understand historical facts, you will be greatly disappointed.

If you want to know more about historical facts, please go google about the historical facts of the 3 kingdoms, buy books and read about them, movies are just a form of entertainment. Give the director and script writers a break.

Overall, classic portrayal of intelligence by Zhuge Liang (acted by Takeshi Kaneshiro) is present in the movie shows the wisdom of ancient Chinese strategy. “Using Straws to borrow arrows” is a classic example of the strategy of  36 strategies “Creating something out of nothing”.  I feel that the movie brings out the essence of Zhuge Liang’s calmness in contrast to Lu Su’s anxiety in that very scene.

I feel that Tony Leung could have do better with Zhou Yu’s role. The Golden Horse winner is definitely not at his best in doing the role of Zhou Yu. This is mainly attribute to the lack in quality of the dialogues affecting the main character more than the other roles. Personally I feel that Tony Leung have not bring out the charisma of the  suave, decisive and intelligent commander of Wu.

Cao Cao’s role is played superbly by Zhang Fengyi, depicting an ambitious, proud, suspicious and poweful warlord. He also brought the charisma of the rare talent of the time.

John Woo did quite a good job in using nature’s scenery such as dark waters, fogs, clouds, fire to convey the feelings of what has happen or is going to happen. This give the film an artistry touch.

Battle scenes are above average but not really fancinating that you will go WHOA! Anyway out of 10 popcorns rating, I’ll give it a 7.5.  I love it due to my fascination with ancient Chinese war strategies but was a bit disappointed with the plot.

Last but not least, Thanks to all 9 of you guys, bros and sis for watching this movie with me. Enjoyed the show with you guys…We’ll have a gaming session next time…See ya





Reasons Why Men/Women commit Adultery

12 01 2009

adultery2_248U.K studies show an increasing number in adulteries. The studies shows that there are percentage women committing adulteries compared to the last century. Regardless of gender, through research, googling and some smart guesses, I drew up a list of Why people commit adultery.

U can use some of the excuses if you are caught with adulteries: (Disclaimer: Try @ ur own risk, CornLord is not liable to any damages to any properties or any health issues.)
DUHs Reasons:
1. GOOGLE site is down, I could not surf for porn while you are not around.
2. I love you like a sister/brother.
3. You left me before I left You.
4. I wanted to shake up our marriage and make it better.
5. I thought you didn’t love me anymore.
6. Our marriage was over long before I cheated.
7. I’ve told you for years why I was unhappy, but you decided to not do anything about it.
8. You cut your hair.
9. You pressured me too much for sex so it wasn’t fun with you anymore.
10. I thought you would change.
11. I need a new house, a new diamond ring and a new husband.
12. The other guys goaded me on and I didn’t want to look like a sissy.
13. I don’t know why I did it. It wasn’t planned.
14. I never meant to hurt you.
15. I didn’t expect to get caught.
16. I need to have sex with others. I can’t go the rest of my life sleeping with just you.
17. It’s an addiction. I can’t help myself.
18. I was curious what sex with someone else would be like.
19. I want to start a rock band and I would be gone a lot. That wouldn’t be fair to you.

OUCH Reasons:
1. You aren’t good in bed. A dog did better than you.
2. You put on too much weight.
3. Size does matter for me.
4. You work too much.
5. It’s in my nature to cheat.
6. I never cheated before but something just snapped.
7. The sex is incredible. It was never that good with you.

Most realistic/common reasons:
1. It’s guy nature to have sex. Trust me I am just having sex and not making love.
2. Sorry Dear, I was drunk and did not know what i am doing.
3. I am bored, sad and lonely and there she came comforting me. It then happens.
4. I never meant to hurt you.
5. He/She has an unhappy marriage, and I was filling an emotional void in his/her life.

Above list ain’t exhaustive..
CornLord’s summary: From the above reasons You can see, if you need to have sex with someone, you can always find one thousand and one reasons to do it.





Wisdom of Corn Ming

9 01 2009

red_cliff2Hi, Welcome to my first corny blog of 2009.

Mood swing in start of 2009, maybe it’s due to reflection of personal flaws. I always like to have a topic(a focal point) before I blog (Wise and smart people always do).

Since Red Cliff 2 now is a hot movie that most are going to catch..I got a new confered nick to myself… Corn Ming (Sounds Like Kong Ming AKA Zhuge Liang)….LOL..RoFL

In order to be a great man, one must learn to be calm before the storm with plans to weather through it. In storm, I often panic and try to do things with careless speed. Doing things with speed not necessary equates to efficiency. I will need to learn to control haste with caution. I make 2 investment mistake with haste… Ouch…Remember that…Corn Ming!!!

Through Movie Ip Man, I understand another true value of man: To be humble and yet uphold your basic dignity. Ip Man in the movie did not boast of his martial prowess or uses martial arts to gain fame. When times come to defend the weak and protect his wife from being raped by Japanese, he did not withhold from using his martial arts. I do not consider myself as a haughty guy but i am not humble enough to keep silent at my achievement (mostly in gaming LoL). 2009, I must remember this phrase: “Still Water runs deep”, I am still not “deep” enough. Checked.

Side tracked: I also love the phrase from Ip Man: there is no man fearful of his wife, only man who respect his wife. I do not entirely agree with that phrase. However, I do agree that man should often consider the position of his wife before any actions or decision. I do see guys fearful of their wives: they are weaklings (total financial control and decisions in hands of wives). I do not respect such men. I feel Ip Man is a model to modern day husband, do respect and love your wife but not fear her. My wife loved me for being the key decision maker by the way, she hate weaklings too… Hi 5 to her.. I AM DA MAN!!! (RAWR..LOL…stay humble stay HUMBLE…Corn Ming!)

My greatest weak point of all is procrastination. I often delayed doing some plans to a later date which often breaks other plans. Elimination or weakening of procrastination is definitely needed.

Direction of blog: To share the my experience and wisdom as well as warning people of hidden and impending danger of the world. Save the Corn, Save The World…LOL

2009, I shall battle myself for none is too great an enemy except myself.





Thoughts of CornLord in the dying 2008…

31 12 2008

bear_pv2_kneel_w_soldier_fThis is the last blog post of the year. Perhaps the most important blog post of the year to me as I thought back of the happenings back in 2008.

Year 2008 have been an eventful year filled with natural disaster like typhoons, notably sichuan earthquake, financial tsunami, escape of the terrorist in Sg, Death of 1st Singaporean in overseas terrorist attack. That is for the world. Anyway for myself, it is the year I got ROM and starting to learn and carry the responsibilities for the family of my very own (in progress of forming). It is also the year, when i encountered more sickness than the previous year and discovered some horrible truths of dangers of modern living. ( My readers will know the “plastic poisoning incident and radiation blogs). It is also the year when i started learning and picking financial investment in a bearish market.

So what is the topic of this post…it’s rather personal for me to recap lesson I learnt..count my blessings as well as appreciating people in my life.

People I appreciate very much for their support:
1. Family – Parents, sister for their ever support in everything i do as well as practical help.
2. Brothers in Christ – Vincent Leong, Joel Yong, Ivan Tan, Wenkai, (not in any particular order)
For wonderful 13 to 14 years of brotherhood, practical help, fun and laughter in gaming as well as sharing lives with one another.
3. Auntie Lydia – For her concern and also her good advice in relationship.
4. Rex – A corny lady i know thru facebook and play dota with. She is someone i feel amicably close with like siblings maybe due to her strong character, her exp in life and i feel comfortable sharing my experiences with her.
5. Colleagues @ work who makes me feel so comfortable in office and help me in work.
6. My gamer friends whom i enjoyed working with in team games such as FlyingOrangUtan, FlyingWugui, LJM
7. My wonder wife whom have been ever patience in our long distance relationship accepting my flaws and who i am.
8. Thank God for bringing people 1-7 in my life.

Some lessons I learnt in 2008:
1. Friends u have not seen for years suddenly approaches you on 1 to 1 basis are out for no good.
2. In financial investment, investing is the term often misused for gambling. Golden Rule: Without due diligence and long term plan, everything else is a gambling.
3. I must recognise that I am living in a highly stressed fast paced environment (Singapore), to counter such environmental influence, I must slow down my pace and be more patient.
4. Walk the blog and not blog the talk.
5. Life is long term learning…there is something new to discover each day.
6. Appreciate your blessing regardless how “small” it is (like u are alive every morning) coz someone somewhere might be fighting for it.

Ending words for 2008: Exposing weakness in one self is not a bad thing if u have learn something from it.
