JJNN: Funny little article

Hi again all.

Today I came across this article on the Japanese Slashdot and I just had to share it with you all. The title of the article is "How to quickly and easily search out a man's secret intentions." I got to say that grabbed my attention. Not, that I care what other men are intending to do, but just out of paranoia that someone will do it to me.

I opened the article thinking that there is a new brain scanning technology (slashdot is a tech news site after all) or maybe some new brand of torture that only works on men. What I came across was simply the sentence "Turn on your boyfriend's (or husband's) computer and search all drives for files with the extensions .jpg, .bmp, .mpg, .avi, .wmv, .rm."

I almost fell out of my chair laughing. Their amazing advice (which was actually taken from a news site that concentrates on news about getting men and woman together so they can get married) was basically "Look for porn on his computer." Of course the article does not go on to say what you should do if you do find lots of bondage porn on your boyfriend's or husband's computer, but I guess that is up to you to figure out.

This actually leads me to a question. Is it true that only men who don't watch porn are worth marrying? If that were true there would be hardly any marriages I would think. Or are they trying to get to the fact that only the ones who save the porn are evil and should not be married. Personally, I see no reason to save porn on my computer's hard drive. But, maybe I should leave that up to the imagination.

Slashdot, as a final note, says that all men will have to save their porn movies as .mkv, .m4v, or .mov files from now on. (For those men that are interested, I am sure you find out how to do that by googleing it. Good luck!)

Any way, it is now time for the word of the day. Today's word is パソコン(ぱそこん). It is pronounced pasokon and personal computer. Always remember to keep your computer's hard drives nice and squeaky clean.
