			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m pretty sure I&#8217;m not alone on this. Maybank2u.com, our local <em>premiere</em> online banking service also known as the Streamyx of banks has been through a redesign recently. What do we think of it?<span id="more-87"></span></p>
<p><img src="http://www.craplicious.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/maybank2u_notice.png" alt="Maybank2u EPIC FAIL" /></p>
<p>You see, designing a banking website as vast as this isn&#8217;t a matter of changing some colors and adding crap graphics, there&#8217;s a whole shitload of other things to be taken care of too. Unfortunately upgrading their server capacity isn&#8217;t one of their priorities. Honestly, I don&#8217;t blame these people. Maybank2u has been setting an example for other local banking websites such as <a href="http://www.cimbclicks.com.my/">this one</a> which has the same shitty service, only with different color.</p>
<p>Now excuse me while I go teach my dad how to transfer money to a third party for the 60th time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yay me for keeping up with this one post per month trend. Anyways, this particular post for the hot ass month of June is not so much of annoyance, more like a suggestion. Yes, don&#8217;t expect my bitterness swing into action in this one. As we all know, Malaysians worship Ikea, and would buy anything thrown in their way, no matter how shitty or useless. If I put an Ikea label on my cat&#8217;s poop and display it on one of their shelves, I guarantee you it&#8217;s the first damn thing people would put in their carts.<span id="more-76"></span></p>
<p>Anyways, being the ignorant twat that I am, I recently came across this interesting concept from Ikea called &#8220;BoKlok&#8221;, which sounded like something that came from your ass instead of what it should be (isn&#8217;t everything from Ikea like that?). BoKlok is a new concept of housing that involves providing space-saving, functional and high quality properties at a price that enables as many people as possible to afford a comfortable home. In other words, a big ass flat packed furniture you can live in. Yes, the Malaysian property scene is booming and as more <a href="http://mayland.com.my/" target="_blank">shitty developers</a> and contractors came into play, we need something like this. Best of all, Ikea get to <em>choose</em> their buyers based on a few criteria of which I&#8217;m sure one of them includes did you wear deodorant or not, so you won&#8217;t get shitty neighbours! How awesome is that?</p>
<p>Last year, they started accepting applications for their units in the UK. Why don&#8217;t Ikea take a step further and introduce this concept here in Malaysia? One baby step towards world domination! Let&#8217;s see, I think they could work out sub 200k price for small flat type homes in non-central location. By flat I don&#8217;t mean those filthy disgusting pigeon holes, shrinked terrace houses perhaps is the correct term here. Two bedrooms, one or two bath, good for new families and single executives. Best of all, we&#8217;ll get our own parking spot within few steps from the front door. OMG I sounded like Bethany my property agent. I should put on extra 30kg, wear anything but black and dye my hair the color of roadkill so I would look like her gorgeous self.</p>
<p>Anyways, do check out <a href="http://www.boklok.com/">BoKlok website</a> if you give a shit. Ikea for Prime Minister!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Attention cheapskates, freeloaders and hobos! In an effort to make Malaysians fatter and live shorter, McDonald&#8217;s Malaysia is giving away one of their crappiest item from their already craptastic breakfast menu, Sausage McMuffin. So be like a true Malaysian and grab this opportunity because we like free stuff even though this shit is lethal to the human body. For those of you who missed out the coupon giveaway, wipe that inverted arch off your ugly face because I have one right here just for you.<span id="more-73"></span></p>
<p>All you have to do is find an offset printer, a matching type of paper and you don&#8217;t even have to spend a dime on food, at least until end of this month. I&#8217;m not sure you&#8217;ll be alive by then but free is free regardless!</p>
<p><img src="http://www.craplicious.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/mcmuffin.jpg" alt="Sausage McMuffin Coupon" /></p>
<p>Damn those wacky printers! I&#8217;m sure the actual copy reads:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Our Sausage McMuffin™ is so crappy, we want to share it with you because we want you to be morbidly obese and die fast. Here&#8217;s a FREE shitty Sausage McMuffin™, bitch.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Enjoy your mornings while they last.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s kinda pathetic really, while the rest of the world enjoys premium quality high definition broadcasting, we are stuck with blurry analogue crap in Astro. Of course some of you might say, o wise Mister Crap, if you fucking hate Astro so much why you even bother to subscribe?<span id="more-62"></span></p>
<p>Very clever, my subjects. In an ideal world, I would never want to be associated or contribute even a nanosecond of my precious time and my hard earned working class money to this greedy mofo of a corporation. However, let me take you on this real life scenario.</p>
<h3>The Situation</h3>
<p>Me without Astro. Only access to <em>effortless*</em> entertainment to keep me sane is through our lovely local TV stations.</p>
<p>Alrighty, I want to see some naked native people with crazy tits and crusty crotches on National Geographic. Wait a minute, isn&#8217;t that only available on Astro? Oh well, I&#8217;m feeling like a teenage schoolgirl who badly wanted to see some orgasmic Westlife music videos. Let&#8217;s watch MTV, girlfriends. Oops, only in Astro?</p>
<p>Never mind, my hungry self need to watch that giant tatas woman Nigella Lawson show (something about cooking I guess). Nope, not on our local stations. Only in Astrolicious. Screw that, there are some fabulous retro daytime movies on Cinemax I&#8217;d like to see (like <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056687/">Whatever Happened to Baby Jane</a> OMG). Hey, isn&#8217;t Cinemax on Astro too?</p>
<p><em>Shit, I&#8217;m stuck!</em></p>
<h3>The Alternative</h3>
<p>Oh I know I know, we have an alternative to Astro. THANK GOD. This brave contender is called MiTV. Since all the major channels (and the only ones that matter) are taken, MiTV scrapes the leftovers which was basically nothing. Read my pixels. NOTHING.</p>
<p>Eh, wait a minute. Where&#8217;s MiTV? What? <a href="http://www.mitv.com.my/">U Television</a>? WTF? Oh kay&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p><em>We are Malaysia&#8217;s digital terrestrial multi-channel pay-TV operator with plans to launch our new services upon completion of the on-going re-engineering, relocation and migration of our core pay-TV platform using DVB-T technology and MPEG-4/H.264 digital video codec standard.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>OMG I  am totally salivating to subscribe just by looking at the design of your website. So classy right! Those codecs babble sounds interesting so fine, I&#8217;ll wait another million years for shitty leftover channels.</p>
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
<p>I never knew Astro was actually part of my basic human needs! Now I know how important it is to donate RM88.95 of our hard earned money to Astro every month for the rest of our lives in exchange for a crappy analogue signals, local <a href="http://www.craplicious.com/2008/01/2-tv-shows-that-are-going-to-lower-your-iq-by-few-points/">brainless</a> <a href="http://www.craplicious.com/2007/12/malaysia-home-of-the-original-reality-television/">copycat</a> production and shitty customer service.</p>
<p>Can&#8217;t you see?</p>
<p><font size="5">THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD REVOLVES AROUND ASTRO. NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU COMPLAINT ASTRO WILL NEVER CHANGE BECAUSE THEY KNOW YOU HAVE NO CHOICE.  KTHXBAI.</font></p>
<p><em>* Internet does not considered as effortless since you have to do the search, download, wait, watch and delete routine. No, dimwits YouTube is NOT TV.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Malaysians and IKEA are like schoolgirls and reality TV. They&#8217;re annoyingly inseparable. Yeah, I bought my furniture there for the past years, which was kinda okay-ish but today, the product quality is beyond shitty. And greedy IKEA, knowing that people will buy ANYTHING from them, starts selling local products like uneatable festive cookies, useless decorations and dirt. Hey guys, I got this bag of dirt from IKEA. Classy. Frustrated, I&#8217;m not in the mood to type therefore I made a few tags that sum up why IKEA sucks . Enjoy, bitches!<span id="more-58"></span></p>

<p><img src="http://www.craplicious.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/ikea_tags3.png" alt="Ikea of Malaysia Tag" /></p>
<p>Okay, the last one doesn&#8217;t belong to the group because it&#8217;s like the best MISEA product ever. And yes, I am too poor to afford good quality imported designer furniture so STFU.</p>
<p>A quick reference for non-Malaysians out there or those Malaysian idiots who are too embarrassed to admit they speak Bahasa Melayu.</p>

Goyang: Wobbly<br />
Patah: Break<br />
Bengkok: Bend<br />
