Parody: Rurouni Kenshin

The Japanese Film Festival just ended in Sydney.  Among the films, the highlight was obviously the Rurouni Kenshin live action trilogy, which is based on a manga and anime series of the same name.

For those unfamiliar with the series, Kenshin is one hell of a guy.  Not only does he righteously fight off all the bad guys, but he is also a great cook and does the laundry!!!

Hey, I don't see Superman doing the same, right?

Dealing with kids...

I'm not good with kids.  Leave me with a toddler and I'd be pretty damn terrified.  

Though I don't dislike them...I just don't know what to do when I'm with one.  How do you talk to kids, anyway?  Some people just seem naturally good at it.  Tips please!

What is a petticoat?

Once in a while, you'll come across some terms that you've never heard of before (like when I learned about the bidet).

Other times, you'll swear you've heard it before, but have no idea what it is.  "Petticoat" was one of those moments.

A petticoat is basically an underskirt that can be used to create that puffy / spread out look for a dress or skirt.

I don't know about you, but when we first heard the word "petticoat" we thought it was a small jacket (i.e. a "petite" coat)... hey, that makes more sense, right??

The above comic was a true story.

Organic chocolate = a lump of hardened mud.

Nevertheless, special thanks to JY for the chocolate experience - I hope we never go through that again, lol.
