Microsoft Loves You
Last last (so sue me) Thursday, my colleagues and I went to Tropicana City Mall to watch Battle: Los Angeles. A free movie night sponsored by the rich folks at Microsoft. An ISV Appreciation Night. Basically it means, thanks for using the Microsoft platform to develop your software products which in turn helps us sell our expensive software licenses. And so we get a free movie ticket. Arrived at 6:00pm for some refreshments. Mee Siam, sandwiches, sardine puffs and etc. Went to get some tea and I found nearly 60% of the teacups contaminated by some kind of black ash. It's like someone was using the teacups as an ashtray. Believe or not, the waiter just picked up a cup with the biggest, baddest chunk of ash and poured in the Lipton tea. I stared at him with my eyes bulging. He finally got the cue and used another cup. =_+. Before going in, we also got to redeem popcorn and Coke. Bumped into two ex-colleagues. Such a small world.
The movie was "KA-BOOM" fiesta from start to finish. See how an unwilling hero beats the odds by defeating a powerful enemy and at the same time earning the respect of him team. Typical. There was a hint of a love interest, but they didn't develop that plot. Else it would have been complete. Grat and Jino complained that they had a headache after watching it. I guess the director did favour a little bit of the "Blair Witch Project" approach, but it was still OK for me la. KH is wondering whether it is suitable for him since he has bouts of vertigo now and then. I think its fine kwa as there is no physical movement involved.
P.S.: The most frequently heard word in the movie: "Imlay".

PS: Anyway I think the no fly zone have become a no tank zone.
PPS: What does Imlay means? A grammatically wrong version of I'm laid?
wth is that?
Imlay is the name of a character in the movie. But come to think of it, the most commonly-heard phrase in the movie is "Surrender, Hell!".
@Imlay:
No fly? No tank? I'm beginning to think about 'other' things. Haha. "I'm Laid"? Very good imagination.
@WhizK:
Hmm. Depends on the response from the first movie.
@Twi:
