Declaration of war!!!

You ever read or saw something on the news or internet that made you go "Gah!" in the past couple of days? No? Well, you haven't been looking hard enough then. There should always be something that makes you go "Gah!". It only proves that the world is working correctly. And when I say "Gah!" I mean it as an exclamation of surprise (or horror). Variations of "Gah!" may include "Geh!", "Yeep!","Oi!", "Zoinks!" or even "Goodness!" (for the poncy git british wannabes). This is, of course, in no way an exhaustive list of exclamation sounds. But I digress....
Just today I read two things that made me go "Geh!" (and "Gah!"). One was the unsurprising victory of BN over the opposition parties (hey, I had to make the obligatory political comment...I would hardly be Malaysian if I didn't). The surprising thing was that even (what I considered to be) the last opposition bastion in Malaysia (read: Kelantan) fell to BN. Wow. What a shock. I always thought that Kelantan would be under PAS regardless of the circumstances. Again, what a shock. Now, I am in no way an opposition supporter (my Dad works for the g'ment after all), but I never thought that they would lose so badly. Oh, and for those of you that don't understand what I'm talking about...don't worry about it. It's not that important. What? It isn't. Anyway, does this mean that more females are going to wear short skirts in Kelantan? Geh.

The second thing that made me go "Gah!" was this post. Specifically, it's the "Of Twins and Equals" post. For those of you who can't be bothered to read it, Lanata claims that Teddy and Ash claim that I'm a clone of her. Or at least a reasonable facsimile. Character-wise anyway, since she is a girl and I'm not (last time I checked anyway). Gah! HOLY POOPNANNY! How preposterous. It is obvious that it is SHE that it the clone! There is only one way that this can go down now. The world isn't big enough for the both of us (I mean, once I conquer the world and all I'm not just gonna donate half of it to her just because she's my character clone). Lanata, I challenge you to...A THUMB WAR! I'm sorry that it has come down to this. The loser shall hafta adopt a new character that is wholly different to mine...I mean, the VICTOR's (me, obviously). Don't fret, Lanata. Though you may be my enemy today you can always be my lackey tomorrow. Provided that you're shorter than me. I can't abide a lackey who's taller than me. Unless you're willing to lose your knee caps.... Equals? There is no such thing as equality!!! Here's a quote that summarizes the whole concept:

"There can be only one..." - Highlander (the first movie...the rest kinda sucked. The series weren't too bad. Okay, the third movie may not have been too bad either (I wouldn't know, I never watched it))

See you on the battlefield. Be there or...or...I'll tell my mama. And I'll call you a poopyhead for the rest of your life....
