Sausage Nude Toast

I ate breakfast at 석봉 토스트/Sukbong Toast this morning. Yea questionable for my health, but what other breakfast is there in Korea? I noticed a particularly scintillating new item on their menu.
It’s egg. It’s sausage. It’s nekkid!

It looks kinda scary. Notice how the egg is wrapped around the toast. Blew my mind! They even toss [...]

Facebook and Death

(photo snatched from mantra-pr.com, not sure of the original)
This entry is not in debate of the downfall of the social-networking site itself, but the worldly departure of the actual people who take part in it.
Two one-time acquiantances of mine have passed away in the last couple of weeks.
There were online obituaries for both, as well [...]

Editing Requests

Chinese Teen Earthquake Rant

The Chinese government gave Chinese citizens the opportunity to share their thoughts on the earthquake and send their condolences to the victims. This girl made some very controversial and rude remarks about the earthquake and its victims. Now the biggest video on Youtube this week is of this Chinese teen girl, Jun Ya (?!?!), ranting [...]

Graffiti in Seoul (Hongdae)

There’s a virtual trove of graffiti in Hongdae. I had no idea!
This does make sense however because Hongik University is the center of the area and the school is known for its artists. However, I’d only visited at night up until this past Saturday when Dog Soup had a gig at The Spot, helping local [...]

Bunnies For Sale

Once or twice a week, as I’m on my commute home, I see this ajumma stationed on the walkway upstairs while I’m transferring from line 2 to 1 at 시청역 City Hall Station.
She has a box full of bunnies for sale:

From this shot it almost looks like she’s alone back to the wall just hanging [...]
