When your ammunition belt goes off...

It never ceases to amaze me that so much can change so quickly. I wouldn't say in the blink of an eye. More like a dozen DotA games and several Kumon worksheets later. It all began on a Monday.

BlackLight.co.nr went down.

I wanted to DotA. It's the holidays. My fingers itch for hotkeys, my ears yearn for shouts of 'OWNAGE' and 'TRIPLE KILL', my eyes long for a dwarven sniper who just left himself open for a backstab. DotA.
A super thunderstorm happened. The DSL light stopped blinking. No DotA. My phone line is down.

I woke up to a dozen miss calls from Aiman and Amirul, which could only mean one thing, they are itching to go jamming. Aiman's grandma is having heart problems and is being hospitalized. His family is staying at a hotel nearby.
I made rendezvous with a long lost friend of mine, inviting me to go out for a movie with some of his friends.
Aiman said he would call back at noon to confirm the jamming. He called at 1pm. No jamming. His grandma passed away.

~I am listening to My Chemical Romance now. Gotta get the atmosphere.~

A TMnet truck stopped outside my house. A fat malay man climbed up the telephone pole and opened the casing. A very bored, and very frustrated (5 days without phone and internet wei) Gus showed his love for TMnet's customer service by sniping Fat Malay Man with his BBguns. Fat Malay Man got angry and started "swearing by the moon and the sun and the stars". No dial tone. Gus' hope for internet dies.

Big thunderstorm returns, phoneline doesn't. Backyard sinks by two feet, grandma panics. Grandma calls relatives. Gus takes pictures. Gus and Hans bunk in at grandma's room due to fear of huge landslide in the middle of the night. The next day, backyard sinks 8 feet. Grandma freaks out, Dad calls contracters. No more sleeping in for Gus. Workers start banging at the wall with sledge hammer from 9am.

I spent a whole hour toiling with my modem's port forwarding in order to create DotA games on BlueServer.org and have the supreme, ultimate power to kick players with 88, JBK, more than 2 z's,BaoBao, or SieNzZ, in their names.
Then I resetted my Aztech modem for it to take effect. No supreme, ultimate power. My modem died.

~I clicked the little blue button with an 'X' on the top right corner of my Creative MediaSource player. Music can be so distracting, especially after 1 hour of goth kids screaming threats of suicide and what nots.~

I called up Wai Hung to check out my comp and modem. He came the next day.
Apparantly, I have to hunt for a nearly non-existant motherboard and haul my modem back to LowYat to get it fixed. It rained again.

~I just realized, my freaking backyard is gone. Well, its mostly on the zinc rooftop of the house below it.~

The contractor and his underpaid workers are gone, but my backyard is still not there. They do not have "the necessary tools". I want my backyard back.

Hung did the unthinkable by hooking up my supposedly busted Kasda modem, which is provided by flalala-ing TMnet. Hallelujah. I can DotA.

No, I cannot. Very familiar signs of Indonesian trouble showed up on my computer. Double-clicking Panda Anti-Virus causes it to restart. This can only mean one thing. Brontok.A.
As if they haven't caused enough trouble by having a nation-wide camp fire, some self-righteous bastard comes up with this virus that spawns a window when you open internet explorer with a message that goes something like this :

"Hentikan kebrobrokan di negeri ini. Stop aborsi!!! Go to Hell!! Hentikan free sex!!! Hentikan porn!!!"

~I'm assuming the creator is an Indonesian by the "kebrobrokan" (keburuk-burukkan). ~

This delusional, self-righteous asswipe thinks he can stop free-sex. Haha. Its hoping that each time people have free sex they'll think of his message and "potong steam". And stopping porn? That is like saying you want to siege Heaven AND Hell with a BBgun in nothing but a pair of underwear and a St.John necktie.

Panda doesn't work. NOD32 gets stopped while being downloaded. MacAfee and Norton are way too high profiled.
Wise up Brontok, AVG can kick your ass.

*20 minutes, one crapping session, and 234 detected copies of Brontok.A later, Gus returns to his computer. The rain has stopped and the flourescent light is turned on. This IS the Hallelujah effect.*

The WC3 Banlist is working again. Gus is kicking people like SieNNzZ88 out over and over again. He wonders what force drives them to rejoin a room which they have been kicked out off a dozen times in the last minute. Gus concludes that they want to swear at him and continues kicking them. Holy shits, triple kills and OWNAGE fill the brightly light computer room with a view of KLCC, hills and potential BBgun targets. Aiman messages Gus asking him to go online for the link to his blog, The Smoking Monkey, because he is thinking of putting the link on a T-shirt he found. AVG is up and running and kicking virus ass while still allowing DotA and porn to be downloaded.

The world is a beautiful place once again.

Hallelujah!
