Lairedion: I prefer just about any women over screeching Australian harpies… so we agree on that. I’ve lived in Hong Kong, Tokyo, Jakarta, Bangkok amongst other places, so I think I can claim to speak with some small authority in this matter. There’s no doubt that a certain degree of genetic mixing is a Good Thing and it’s no coincidence that my favourite Indonesian word is ‘Campur’… so perhaps not a pure Sundanese – maybe 1/2 with a little bit of Arab, Portuguese, Chinese (and we’ll throw in the obligatory Madurese for the hell of it) lurking around back up the family tree

But of course you can. Well-traveled bules looking for tight Asian pussies can always claim authority. By all means continue to do so.

Like you try to do with Farah. Doesn’t feel right, mate? Have a VB and get over it.

There you go again. I’m sure Farah is perfectly capable of defending herself against the evil Kinch.

I’m sure she can. Her she is with enough life experience and being able to speak and write English despite you labeling her as “kampungan”.

“Stealing ideas from the Asians and claiming their own innovation.”
ho di ho… I was wondering where the hills hoist came from…Although I think the ozzies did invent the the “black box” for aircraft..which is fortunate if had been in invented in Indonesia never would have been exported too much domestic demand.

hehe… maybe Kinch doesn’t know that my kampung use english as daily launguage, ha-ha !!

I’ll fedex her a few durians and see if I get lucky.

.. awwww don’t you know sweety, not need to do that already. Everything from kampung taste much better than anything from town, or abroad.. things like durian, ayam kampung.. or cewek kampung maybe ????

I’ve lived in Hong Kong, Tokyo, Jakarta, Bangkok amongst other places, so I think I can claim to speak with some small authority in this matter.

For someone that traveling a lot he should be the one that called “kampungan” instead of me. Just travel few miles and he have rights to be big head, and have big mouth.
There’s plenty more traveler traveling around the world.. but i think there’s only several that have combination of big mouth and big head at the same time like these kinch guy.

he is definitely type of person rare to find, ha !

diego… A cock is a rooster.. “a male chicken”
Look it up.. A cock in reference to a penis is strictly slang.
A cock fight is common in many countries. So call upper class countries as well as 3rd world countries.. It usually involves lots of gambling and lots of booze. Not my thing. But it apparently isn’t your either or you wouldn’t have thought it was referring to men fighting with their penises.. Then again, maybe thats your thing?

Ignoring for the sake of politeness the redundancy in the above sentence, you’ve managed to inspire me to resolve to get back to Indo for a holiday ASAP.

Farah: You’re supposed to provide incentives… 72 Raisins or something like that.

Jarule: I love the Singlish expression ‘talking cock’. Google for the Coxford Singlish Dictionary.

@ Farah

Are these wings comfortable when you play pool? Or do they serve a different purpose, like fanning your charms when you bend over, ready for the take-off once the shot is taken?
Lairedion Says:
June 15th, 2008 at 4:03 pm
dewa,

If I’m not mistaken you still have an invitation by Farah to play pool among other games. Date and location have not been set yet.
Farah Says:
June 15th, 2008 at 6:14 pm
@ Kinch

i thought you never like kampung foods, or girls or.. language ?? sorry we don’t have raisins, we only have “ikan asin”.
you come over you bring your own food, and your own accommodation, tent or sleeping bag.. i think the security post have empty spot at the corner of my village.

And watch out some of us might still like to eat human flash too…

@ Dewa
the wings ? well.. its just some distraction for anyone to see it.. so they wont see clearly when i do the shooting trick…. just the same effect like red high heels charms i think.. its bring good luck

@ Lairedion
hehehe.. you turn off my offer…. well.. you had your chance.. but yeah.. maybe dewa could teach me some new tricks.

Did I? I cannot remember it anymore. But I won’t risk an extramarital affair for the fun of playing pool billiards. I’m aware of the danger of women putting a spell on men. Apart from that dewa, being a Kuta cowboy, has more talent and credentials to learn you some new tricks.

However if you have the looks of Sheila Majid, I might reconsider your offer.

@ Lairedion
You did turn off my offer due to your marriage.. but its okay. I respect honest people at least you said you were married, haha !
I don’t ave any spell to cast. Just me, like it or not, take it or leave it.
You know how i look, i think i ever send you my pict

This site is so informative…. I swear, I would never have known that I was an ugly, fat, shrieking, alcoholic parasite if I hadn’t read this little piece on ‘stereotypes’.
Farah Says:
June 16th, 2008 at 11:41 am
@ Janma
yeah me too.. think the same its very informative… never thought that sumatra people where stereotyped as:

usual malay dream under the palm tree in the kampung all day except when it’s time to run amok culture..)

…. sound like someone been traveling to sumatra kampung too much to decide what stereotype to fit to sumatra people.

@ Kinch
.. i am talking as one of sumatra people whos already at office since 6 am in the morning and work 12 hours a day until 6 pm wit h other 1500 workers in my company. It was less people than the whole sumatra people, but still i disagree if you short of say all sumatra people do every day is sitting under palm tree and day dreaming.

What time do you usually wake up mister?
kinch Says:
June 16th, 2008 at 4:49 pm
Farah, My Lovely: 12 hours/day in the office isn’t a bad effort – but that’s just bums on seats – productivity is another thing entirely.

As for myself… I’m a software developer and vary between zero and 18 hour days – depending on: my mood, the urgency of the task, how many days I’ve been working straight… many factors. But one thing for sure, I would never measure my productivity by the number of hours I spend working. I’ve produced more in some 4 hour burst of creativity than in many 12 hour slogs.

Now I have no problem imagining a Batak talking non-stop for 18 hours/day

Ever try to work at oil and gas rigs ?? or ever even saw national geographic about this ? or you just too busy sticking your bumps on the chair in front of computer monitor ?
Try to work on weekend, x-mast and new year eve with sched 20:10 in middle of jungle.

Our production is 24/7 so you could drive your car to office, and still 24/7 not enough of course. With the whole world demand especially past few months, its busy months for us. I know what productivity is, since i work with multinational workers also. So don’t talk big about it.

Now I have no problem imagining a Batak talking non-stop for 18 hours/day

LOL, for your information.. sumatra not consist of bataknese only… but maybe mister traveler already know this.. aren’t you?
Too bad….. i am faaaarr from your picture of sumatra people mister !! hahahahah !!!

good for you… as long as it’s not pertamina and you didn’t have to PAY to get hired there . last i heard a few years back, entry level PE at pertamina job cost 200 juta – cheaper than getting into the police academy, but still there’s a message in there somewhere.

but you said multinational… presumably pekanbaru, so u might actually be doing real work. in which case good. welcome to the human race. no prizes for working hard. comes with the territory.

Sorry its not pertamina, i don’t have the bribe mentality just like your THOUGHT, hahaha, once again you are WRONG. The more you comment about me, the more i could see you’re just another twisted poor guy.
You never met sumatra girl before as i assume you are. Maybe you met one, but is batak girl. Poor thing.
