★ Taiwaneses' bad habits-(05) Love to eating out loud


Taiwan is famous by its lovely food. Taiwanese love to eat, sometimes it makes people wonder... I always thought only Japanese men can be eating out loud since Japan is a male-dominated society, I can't believe there are more and more Taiwanese male are following Japaneses' footsteps and start eating out loud in public, what a discouraged world.


Eating out loud is nothing compares to cleaning the teeth after meal, cleaning the teeth and making a huge noise, that's scarier.

習詠春有感(十三)相對論篇


藍色小圈為狄師父的膝蓋處,橘色小圈為妙問的膝蓋處。

當我覺得狄師父因人高馬大手長腳長而佔有優勢的同時,他也覺得我個小腿短重心較低而處於有利位置。就像妙問和狄師父站在一起,當他的手臂半曲前伸時,即使妙問的手臂完全伸直也碰不到他。然而,利用二字拑羊馬的特性,妙問短短的腿卻很容易便可壓制到他的小腿腹,讓重心特高的他一不小心就會跌倒。

身材上的優勢劣勢其實並不是絕對的,而是相對的。

班上很多學了很久詠春 (因為詠春太速成,所以只要學習超過三個月就算很久了啦 ) 的男性至今還是在玩比力氣的遊戲。如果詠春講求的是巧勁,讓我疑惑的是,為何狄師父不隨時糾正他們呢? 難道是:
一,講不聽。
二,沒感覺。
三,自己體會出來的功夫才是自己的,所以不必一直耳提面命,時間到了,就會明白。

也許等他們老了沒力了,才能真正體會身為弱者的焦慮,也才會認真開始思考何謂巧勁這種玄之又玄的東西吧。不過到了那個時候,我可已經思考了二十年了,就算不能勤能補拙,至少可以熟能生巧吧,嘿嘿嘿…

小獨和阿醜(一)


阿醜曾在收容中心當過半年的代理乳娘。所謂代理乳娘,也就是當阿醜被抓進去關的時候剛好懷孕,在收容中心待產一陣子後產下一窩仔貓。仔貓好送養,所以她的仔貓很快地被人領養一空,同時不斷地有仔貓也被抓進收容中心,阿醜個性溫和又剛臨盆,自然成為代理乳娘最佳貓選。

雖然一開始的時候她不喜歡小獨,混熟了之後她也會和小獨一起打盹了。

沒看過塑膠膜沙發嗎? 天冷了,塑膠膜沙發也要溫暖些…

復仇女王蜂Lily Allen

既然提到 Kate Nash,一定要談談 Lily Allen。她們兩個都是二十歲出頭的小女生,出道的時間相近,又是濃濃英國口音唱腔。雖然她倆的曲風和外型完全不同,但常被相提並論。Lily Allen 被稱為 The Queen of MySpace,而單曲 Smile 是先在 iTunes 上開賣,比實體的CD還早上市。

這首歌以小女孩的樂觀面對花心的劈腿男友,並闡明惡有惡報的天真道理。這首和 Kate Nash 的那首最相似的地方就是:她們都遇上了壞男人…

當然這裡的也是不乾淨版,乾淨版只不過把 F***ing 改成了 Doing…



Smile - Lily Allen

When you first left me I was wanting more
But you were f*cking that girl next door, what ja do that for?
When you first left me I didn't know what to say
I never been on my own that way, just sat by myself all day

I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends
I found a light in the tunnel at the end
Now you're calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and a moan
And it's only because you're feeling alone

At first, when I see you cry,
it makes me smile, it makes me smile.
At worst, I feel bad for a while,
But then I just smile,
I go ahead and smile.

Whenever you see me you say that you want me back
And I tell you it don't mean jack, no it don't mean jack
I couldn't stop laughing, no I just could help myself
See you messed up my mental health, I was quite unwell

I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends
I found a light in the tunnel at the end
An' now you're calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and a moan
An' it's only because you're feeling alone

At first when I see you cry,
It makes me smile, it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while,
But then I just smile, I go ahead and smile


別看她年幼可欺,她的現場功力也是很驚人的。前面12秒都是主持人在說話,跳過即可聽到美聲。


整首歌最得人心的還是這段:

(0:53)
Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
When you look with your eyes,
Everything seems nice...
But, if you look twice,
You can see it's all lies

(not in Live version)
Life, yeah that's city life
Yeah that's city life
Yeah that's city life

Life, yeah that's city life
Yeah that's city life
Yeah that's city life

燥狂孩子王Kate Nash

孩子氣又具侵略性,而且讓人丟大臉… 讓我想到 Kate Nash 這首歌。這裡特別貼上不乾淨版,完全沒消音。



Foundations - Kate Nash

Thursday night, everything's fine, except you've got that look in your eye
When I'm tellin' a story and you find it boring,
You're thinking of something to say.
You'll go along with it then drop it and humiliate me in front of our friends.

Then I'll use that voice that you find annoyin' and say something like
"yeah, intelligent input, darlin', why don't you just have another beer then?"

Then you'll call me a b**ch
And everyone we're with will be embarrassed,
And I wont give a s**t.

My finger tips are holding onto the cracks in our foundation,
And I know that I should let go,
But I can't.
And everytime we fight I know it's not right,
Everytime that you're upset and I smile.
I know I should forget, but I can't.

You said I must eat so many lemons
'cause I am so bitter.
I said
"i'd rather be with your friends mate 'cause they are much fitter."

Yes, it was childish and you got aggressive,
And I must admit that I was a bit scared,
But it gives me thrills to wind you up.


My finger tips are holding onto the cracks in our foundation,
And I know that I should let go,
But I can't.
And everytime we fight I know it's not right,
Everytime that you're upset and I smile.
I know I should forget, but I can't.

Your face is pasty 'cause you've gone and got so wasted, what a surprise.
Don't want to look at your face 'cause it's makin' me sick.
You've gone and got sick on my trainers,
I only got these yesterday.
Oh, my gosh, I cannot be bothered with this.

Well, I'll leave you there 'til the mornin',
And I purposely wont turn the heating on
And dear God, I hope I'm not stuck with this one.

My finger tips are holding onto the cracks in our foundation,
And I know that I should let go,
But I can't.
And everytime we fight I know it's not right,
Everytime that you're upset and I smile.
I know I should forget, but I can't.

小獨和阿莫(一)


阿莫將是小獨唯一的父親/男性形象… 好好學學如何邊睡邊瑜珈吧。


第一型男阿莫已經很習慣相機了,完全無視鏡頭的存在…


咦? 誰在吵?

第一型男也破功,都怪窗外麻雀太熱鬧。

習詠春有感(十二)勤能補拙篇


雞冠頭:喂抓頭髮是女生的招式!
三鞭:咳咳咳咳咳… ①

是因為雄性身體構造較雌性適合戰鬥,所以才有較高的暴力基因?

記得以前對強暴防治的教導中,總是要求女性不要穿著暴露、不要在夜晚獨自行動、不要在男生面前露出對對方的興趣,所有的教條,都是指向女性應該如何應該如何,一旦不幸遇到,社會對被害者不是關懷,而是質疑。這是什麼樣的社會啊???

在這個大欺小一面倒的自然法則裡,勤能補拙似是唯一真理。這裡的「勤」指的是勤練多練用心練,「拙」可視為一般人所謂的蠻力/濁力,或是反應慢,沒巧勁。尤其對於個頭小又迷信四兩撥千金的我,面對好勇好勝的雄性時,唯一的勝算便是更軟更鬆更快更狠吧。

有時更強更壯更大更多並不是好事,就是大還要更大多還要更多的觀念,讓現代科技將人類一步步帶向毀滅… 又是題外話了。


更多的題外話:當不同意對方,把對方當敵人時就可以任意出手攻擊,而且還可以眾暴寡,打完又不認帳的豎仔充斥人間… 台灣是否已成為一個以暴制暴的社會了呢?

據說大麻抽多的男性會有女性化的傾向 ( 像是說話舉止更輕柔,也比較沒有攻擊性,這和栽種大麻時所用的肥料含有荷爾蒙有關 ),也許男多於女的國家應該有條件地開放大麻合法,然後強制有暴力傾向的男性去抽大麻當作治療,當然是強迫付費
療程… 題外話題外話…


註①:妙問在攔手實用篇中也曾示範過此式。
