Okay I just got back from watching the twilight showing (only $4.00 :D) of Bulletproof Monk. Well, call me strange but I think it was trying to give me an important life lesson!

In the movie, Chow Yun Fat's character gave Stifler a riddle about hot dogs and hot dog buns. Basically, it was like "Why do hot dogs come in packs of 10 while hot dog buns come in packs of 8" or something like that.

Here's the spoiler:

At the end of the movie Stifler said something like, "Oh I got the answer to the riddle! Life is basically unfair -- you don't know what life will give you -- so you might as well be happy with what you got -- and in the end you still have a hot dog" or something like that.

And Chow Yun Fat saic, "You got it!"

Okay, as I was leaving the theater and walking to my car, I couldn't help but dwell on this piece of advice. And then it hit me. Why a hot dog? Why not some other metaphor?

Well, a hot dog is shaped like a "you know what". Maybe God was trying to tell me something! So, even though I got a cocktail weenie in life while other guys got a foot long hot dog, I should just be happy with what I got. There's some merit to this piece of advice. From now on, I'm gonna be happy.

Oh yeah, before I forget -- Jamie King is pretty hot and Kelly Hu is even hotter! I saw the X-Men 2 trailer and Kelly Hu looked so hot hot hot!!!!!!!

I think it is rather this:
There are 10 hot dogs shaped like you know what.
There are 8 hot dog buns that could be said to resemble you know what.
=> You better get a bun fast otherwise you will be one of the hot dogs without a bun ......

It never fails to amaze me that no matter how many jokes get picked up around here and dragged to death, people constantly miss StormRider's repeated self-deprecating humor and react with astonishment.
