If you guys did not notice, I have a chat box from cbox.ws. It's free. However, it comes with popup ads. It doesn't really affect me as my browser will block them anyway that I do not know about their existence for a long time. Until a friend complained to me. Anyway, if anyone knows of a good and free and ad-free chat box, please tell me.

Our minister said, "How much do you want? Do you want three meals in a hawker centre, food court or restaurant? "

We want hawker center. And as cheap as possible.

My friend is trying to compile a list of places with cheap food. Please help out if you can.

Fluff Friends is the application in Facebook that I spent the most time on. The idea is that you go around petting other Fluff to earn 5 munny for each Fluff you get. You can only earn the 5 munny once from each Fluff in a day. The day starts from GMT 0:00:00.

However, there's no indication if you have already petted the Fluff. There's only 2 way to know. 1 is your memory. This gets more difficult when you pet more Fluff. 2 is you pet the Fluff, then it will inform you if you have petted before. Duh. A waste of time. Moreover, when you pet a Fluff, you can't pet another 1 until 5 seconds later.

So I decided to write a script for Greasemonkey in Firefox that will tell me if I have been to the Fluff page before. You can do a number of things in a Fluff page. You can pet, race, give gifts, or none of the above. But I made it a point to at least pet the Fluff for every Fluff I go to. So if a Fluff page I visited, I can assume I have already petted it.

At 1st, I tried to just change the style where the visited links is of a different colour. This can't really work as I need to reset it at GMT 0:00:00. I don't know how to reset visited links for only Fluff links. So I used cookie to keep track of the Fluff ID I've been to. And everytime a Fluff page is linked, I will check the Fluff ID against the cookie and change the color of the link if necessary. The cookie will expire on GMT 0:00:00.

However, I found another problem at night. After I petted numerous Fluff, the size of the cookie grew too big. So I have to save to a second cookie when the 1st cookie got too big. And it's working fine so far. Hopefully that's all the work I need to do on it. :P

Update: Following some feedback by Thierry, I added auto checking of the links every 2 minutes.

Update: After petting more than 700 fluff today, I got an error when I load fluff. The size of the cookie got too big. So I changed to using GM_setValue instead.

For those who wanted to use the script, you can get it at

Remember, it's for Firefox browser with the Greasemonkey extention. You can search for Greasemonkey on the Firefox extention site.

I don't understand it at all. At 1st, I thought it's spam. I've received a number of spam emails in weird languages before. But the links in the email is to Facebook itself. And RaChel Phua is a Malaysian lady I requested to add to my friends list recently.

Then I look at my next email. Also from Facebook.

Pauline Hsieh is a Taiwanese lady I requested to add to my friends list recently.

This email I can read. And it is the exact format as the previous email. So I guess the previous email is to inform me that RaChel Phua has confirmed my friend request.

The next day, I receive this email from Facebook.

I don't remember requesting to be friend with any WK Tan in Facebook. So what is this message talking about?

I got the answer later when I logged in to Facebook and see a friend request from this WK Tan.

I would say Facebook is doing something wrong here. First, not everybody in Malaysia uses Malay as their main communication language. Some of them could be using Tamil or Mandarin or English. Second, why do they use the language of the sender? Shouldn't they use the language of the receiver? Why send me an email in a language I may not understand? Duh.

What a bhb title. haha!

In the short time that I have been in this country, 2 girls had said they like me. And I did not do anything at all. This is unprecedented. I wonder how much of it is due to the fact that I am a foreigner here...

Who will you choose?

A group of kids are playing on a railway track. 1 kid is playing on a disused track nearby. You see train moving towards the group of kids at a high speed. You are in a position where you can divert the train to the disused track. Doing it will save the group of kids, but killing that 1 kid there. Will you do it? Why?

My answer

Close

I'll not change the course of the train. The reason that they kid is playing on the disused track is because he understand that it is dangerous to do it. He is brave enough to do the right thing and not follow his friends in doing the wrong thing.

So I think he deserve to live, more than the others.
