Metrosexuals: It’s a Guy Thing!

So what makes a metrosexual man? He’s been defined as a straight, sensitive, well-educated, urban dweller who is in touch with his feminine side. He may have a standing appointment for a weekly manicure, and he probably has his hair cared for by a stylist rather than a barber. He loves to shop, he may wear jewelry, and his bathroom counter is most likely filled with male-targeted grooming products, including moisturizers (and perhaps even a little makeup). He may work on his physique at a fitness club (not a gym) and his appearance probably gets him lots of attention — and he’s delighted by every stare.

Computer Stupidities

Installed Litestep yesterday. Didn’t like it. Uninstalled it. Screwed up DivX video playback. Looks like I have to install .NET framework to fix the problem. Will give it a shot if I get home on time tonight. Possible party after game.

I was walking up the subway stairs at my home station yesterday. There was this girl who was wearing ultra low rise jeans infront of me. I could see 45% of her pink thong. She didn’t have JLO type butt but juicy, hard, just the right size. Better than JLO’s IMO. Her butt was in my face, so close I could taste it! No I didn’t approach her. I don’t approach women based on butt factor.

I missed payment on Time Warner Cable. Looks like the bill got misplaced because my family members were dealing with some cable problem and didn’t put it back where it belonged! This is probably 3rd time I missed payment on some bill because of them! DAMMIT!

Downloaded Litestep. I guess I need some change.

New term I learned from spam today, Fucktastic!

Sales pitches that don’t work 4 me:

1) Offering me more minutes on my cellphone
2) It’s European
3) Low price, low quality
4) Nudity/nakedness etc. (I have enough free resources)

New term coined by me:

RFS (Rockstar Fatigue Syndrome).

Your mood should be quite good today, dear Aries, and you will find that in general, people will be reacting to your tendency to take the lead. Keep in mind that this also indicates that they will probably be more likely to fight back as well. You may have the tendency to lean towards the bizarre and unconventional. The route to take today is the one that fosters diversity and revolutionary thinking. Be a pioneer in every situation you encounter.

2. Christian: “Have you ever tried praying at a drive in movie before?” or “What are your plans for tonight? Feel like a Bible study?”

3. Sufferers of Attention Deficit Disorder: “Excuse me, but I just noticed that the color of your eyes reminds me of something I saw in Hawaii. I was walking on the beach and … Oh cool! They have beer nuts here.”

4. Incurable romantics: “I never believed in love at first sight until YOU walked into the room.”

5. Sex fiends: “If I said you had a beautiful body would you hold it against me?”

MSN Slate Movie Reviews

So I bought a Toshiba 24″ Model 24AF43 Flat Tube TV today. Other Panasonic one I bought less than a month ago had a crack due to shipping problem and didn’t produce black enough black. Toshiba seemed to offer crispy picture and comes with this neat feature called Vertical Compression for 16:9 mode. Bought from PC Richard and Sons (I know, their website sucks). Circuit City didn’t have anyone to help me. The rep was busy selling a big screen TV. I’m supposed to get it on Sunday.

—————

16:9 ENHANCED MODE: a.k.a. Vertical Compression, Squeeze Mode, V-Compression, and/or Anamorphic Mode.

16:9 enhanced mode is an incredible feature. If you’re interested in buying a regular 4:3 TV set but don’t want to lose precious resolution for anamorphic widescreen DVD movies, Sony and as of late, some other makers offer a 16:9 enhanced mode. Accessible via the menu, 16:9 enhanced mode re-focuses the CRTs to display nearly all 480 lines of horizontal DVD resolution for anamorphically enhanced discs. In other words, 16:9 enhanced mode “squeezes” the electron guns, and the result is a pure, saturated, colorful picture. Moreover, scan lines nearly disappear. Without a 16:9 feature, the black bars on widescreen movies will take up 100-150 of the screen’s 480 horizontal lines. With 16:9 enhanced mode, there are still black bars, but the feasible image is in a field of 480 lines (instead of about 350). Since 16:9 enhanced only increases resolution, the screen size won’t change. Truly exciting stuff!

***Make sure your DVD player is set to 16:9 and you’re ready to rock and roll! ***

Of course, if you already have a 16:9 TV, you won’t need 16:9 enhanced mode. For all intents and purposes, 16:9 enhanced mode “turns” a 4:3 set into a 16:9 set. In my opinion, this is an option that no 4:3 TV should be without.

When to use 16:9 enhanced mode: If your TV has the squeeze capability and if your DVD case says “enhanced for widescreen TVs”, “enhanced for 16×9 TV’s”, “anamorphic widescreen”, or anything of that nature, then use 16:9 enhanced mode.
