Road paved on 2:56 PM |

Radidiocrasy

I have not listened to Hitz.fm for a very very long time and only recently I started as I have to go down to Seremban at the unearthly time of 7 in the morning. And I found out that the radio is getting stupider and stupider everyday. Hands up those who find JJ and Rudy's laughter very very annoying. Hands up those who find Hitz.fm going down the drain. Hands up those who find the anti-piracy advertisements are ridiculous.

For example:

Eg: This guy from God-knows-where talking about watching a movie on pirated VCD. He talks about how the screen shakes, got people standing up, bad sound, not clear...
My take on it:
1. This guy is declaring that he watches pirated stuff on air. Why isn't the gov. doing anything to catch him? Piracy is a crime, ain't it?
2. Dude, buy pirated DVDs. They are clear and the same price la.
3. Just download the blardy movie. DVDrips are cool and good.

Eg: This guy idiotically talking about hearing music from pirated CDs. About how those music skips and all and scratches.
My take on it:
1. Pirated CD is so much damn cheaper.
2. Download MP3s, dude. So much cheaper.
3. If you complain so much, burn your own CDs.

Eg: This guy talking about playing pirated games. About how they hang and there is a footballer named David Beckhand in Championship Manager.
My take on it:
1. Idiot, the games only hang because you don't know to install. Idiot.
2. When they pirate games, they COPY those games, not redo the games. There is no way you can change anything in the game. Idiots.
3. Let's see if you will go and buy a game worth RM150.

Eg: This guy talking about how he bought a pirated PC game and called all his friends together to play. When he installed it, it hanged and his friends hated him.
My take on it:
1. Refer to No. 1 of previous example.
2. Which idiot call his friends together to play a PC game in a house. Stupid, that's what cyber cafes are for.
3. If your friends hate you for a hanged game, they don't deserve to be your friends.

Eg: This guy talking about supporting the Malaysian music industry by not supporting piracy. And how they will be selling kajang satay and what-nots if the piracy continues.
My take on it:
1. The only way we will get to know about this Malaysian bands is thru piracy, cos I ain't gonna waste RM39++ on one stupid band. So piracy is doing them good.
2. Pirates won't even want to pirate them. They are not worth pirating. Hell, I won't even buy them if I see them pirated.
3. The music industry was never a career worth thinking about. So if you waste your future in the music industry, you deserve to just sell satay beside the road.


So you see? Those anti-piracy campaigns are a failure, because they seriously do not know what they are talking about. You know, I think the gov should stop wasting money on these campaigns and use those money to subsidise CDs/DVDs so they would be cheaper. If not, channel it to petrol subsidy.

And I don't know if you ever heard the advertisement for Malay Mail. They now changed it to Weekend Mail, but when I initially heard it, it was Malay Mail. It goes like this:
Guy working for MM: Good morning, this is So-and-So, how can I help you?
Dumb girl on the other end of line 1: I heard Brad and Angelina are getting married.
GWFMM: If we know, you'll be the first to find out. Hello, how can I help you?
DGOTHOEOL 2: Brad can't marry Angelica. He is mine.
QWFMM: Uh...okay. Hello, how can I help you?
A guy: I'm calling to complain lack of light streets at my housing area.
GWFMM: Dui pu chi, wo chiang hua yi pa le. yi er san si... (faking chinese talk)
For the hottest news and tabloid, buy the Malay Mail.

Now, what the hell was that? So the Malay Mail has nothing but stupid stories of celebrities? I mean, what they think we are, idiotic teenagers whose main concern in life is whether Britney Spears is dumb (no questioning that) or if Tom Cruise is too old for his work (about time)?

So there. I don't think the radio is getting dumber. It is those people who make those advertisement and campaign going dumber.

That doesn't stop me from stating that JJ and Rudy are blardy irritating as hell.

Humans are so...silly!
