    As for me, @angelangie. I really don't know if I'm seeing similarities between Season 1 or 2 DUE TO a cultural phenomenon or an individual choice. If what @cryjingle said here is true, http://forums.soompi.com/discussion/comment/27288457/#Comment_27288457then there's no point in discussing it because it's an individual choice or decision made by the directors and cast members. 

    But if it is a cultural phenomenon, i.e., there IS a tradition of carrying the wife over the threshold because of a superstition, then I'd like to know those traditional acts/rites because that will allow us to better understand why Guigui does what she does. You know what I mean...

    itemprop="headline name"Pigs might fly . . . but 'never again' on American airline

    A TWENTY-STONE pet pig rampaged through the aisles of an American aircraft snuffling at food trays and rubbing its nose on passengers' legs after it was allowed to fly first class.

    Its owners had insisted upon it accompanying them on the flight, saying that it was a "therapeutic companion pet". They produced a doctor's note to that effect.

    David Castleveter, a US Airways spokesman, said: "We can confirm that it will never happen again. Many people were quite upset that there was a large uncontrollable pig on board, especially those in the first class cabin. Let me stress that it will never happen again."

    The pig, described as "enormous, brown, angry and honking" was allowed on to the six-hour flight from Philadelphia to Seattle after its owners, a woman in her thirties and one in her sixties, told airline officials that it was as crucial to them as a guide dog. US Airways and the Federal Aviation Authority stipulate that passengers may fly with "service animals" such as guide dogs.

    The pig was walked on to the aircraft where it was given three seats in first class, near its owners who had paid the fare. Despite attempts to strap in the animal, it became restless after take off and began sauntering through the first class cabin. "He kept rubbing his nose on people's legs trying to get them to give him food and stroke him," said one passenger.

    As the flight landed in Seattle the pig panicked, running up and down through economy class squealing. At one point the animal attempted to enter the cockpit, charging the door. It took four cabin attendants to remove the pig from the aircraft, but once inside the terminal it escaped. It was re-captured after being pushed into a lift. -- 30 Oct 2000, Telegraph

  3. rational: out of so many actors/actresses, why are korean reporters tracking her SNS in the first place? it is not like she is jackie chan... hmmmmmmmmm
    JFBQ00227070619B.gif
    delu theory #1: they figure that she will do another 'happy birthday oppa' and will just publicly declare one day "okcat ♥♥♥ bef"
    delu theory #2: they are trying to make taec jealous
    delu theory #3: does weibo have relationship status? maybe they think she will just change it...
    delu theory #4: if one day taec declares publicly, everyone will know who GuiGui is already because they remember reading about her...
    delu theory #5: they know something is cooking!!

    said: BTW, @lmangla, if anybody asks us why we think Taecyeon and GG are dating, show them this tweet, too. 

    Why on earth would he send out a tweet like that if GG didn't mean anything to him? And on the very day that GG was scheduled to shoot that kissing scene, too. I'd really like to hear an alternative reason. 
  5. Here is an idea for our closing thread and opening new one. we still have plenty of time and so feel free to toss in other ideas...

    Inspired by: Did anyone read The Faraway Tree series by Enid Blyton as a child? To learn more: click here; fantastic for children ~ highly recommend it.
    Three children come to live at the edge of the Enchanted Wood where the trees, "a darker green than usual," whisper their secrets: "Wisha-wisha-wisha." In the wood is the Faraway Tree — a huge tree inhabited by fairy-folk and laden with fruit of all kinds from acorns to lemons. Its topmost branches lead to ever-changing magical lands above the swirling clouds....the children explore lands like the Land of Take-What-You-Want, the Land of Dame Slap, the Land of Topsy-Turvy, the Land of Spells, the Land of Goodies, the Land of Dreams and the glorious Land of Birthdays.....

    Theme: The grand picnic under the enchanted tree
    Story: Our ship sailed long and fast in the micheseo sea searching for treasure and trailing the path of okcat and bef. we found ourselves at the shores of the mysterious micheseo island. we decided to explore to see if okcat and bef had come here earlier. in the magical woods, we founds ourselves at the foot of a huge enchanted tree. we met the tree's guardian spirit, who told us that okcat and bef had come and climbed up the tree and were now in one of the ever-changing magical lands. we would have to wait for the blue moon to come again before we could climb up the tree. so we sat under the tree and feasted. sitting close to the flickering lights of our campfire, we wondered what adventure were okcat and bef having and which magical land were they in.....

    What to do?
    ~ it is a pirate picnic; we need food and drinks.
    ~ if you are tech savy, you can create posters of magic lands above the faraway tree that okcat and bef might be in or of pirates sitting under the tree in front of campfire exchanging stories....
    ~ you can draw. if you can't, you can also ask your children/nieces/nephews to draw something and come up with a story
    ~ these are campfire stories which means ridiculous, over the top and absolute imaginative.
    example: okcat and bef found themselves in the candy land and okcat was so excited because he loves sweets. candy land is really a huge field where lollipops of every flavour imaginable blooms and you just pick one off the ground and a new one appears in its place. okcat really wanted fish candy and he searched high and low. he found chicken candy instead and was tempted to eat it. bef saw that and started to cry. okcat felt bad and started to cry as well.....

    Task:
    ~ post a picture of food/drinks
    ~ Include your campfire story of where okcat and bef might have landed and what happened.
    ~ can include posters if you are tech savy/can draw.....

  6. MEMO: to fellow bird-watchers;
    Background: As you might be aware, we are studying 'migration and courtship patterns among the micheseo family of birds'. We have focused our study on a pair of birds who we have collared and are following through electronic signals. The female is tagged 'GHOST163', or 'GuiGui' for short and the male is tagged 'OKCAT185', or 'Taec' for short.

    Subject: a reminder of how this society operates
    Message:
    There appears to be some confusion on what our bird watchers society actually does. So, here is the guideline of the regulations that govern our little bird watcher society here at Soompi.

    What NOT to do:

    ~ The micheseo family is part of the larger ent family of birds (also known as entertainers). Ent family is a social group and enjoy interactions with each other. These birds are not solitary creatures and therefore, it is unnecessary to panic every time social interactions are observed; nor is it
    necessary to defend our thesis with groups that have different hypothesis than ours. It does not mean our study is doomed.  It is not the role of the bird watchers to cage free birds.
    ~ While it might be exciting to imagine having a martini with James Bond or play checkers with Jason Bourne, we are not the spymasters club.

    sean-connery-martini.jpg

    We are just the bird watcher's society. So, we do not hover and scrutinize our birds closely;
    we do not make noises and frighten the birds if they behave differently than what was expected; we do not invade the space of the birds and alert them of our presence -- we simply observe from a distance from our lounge. Birds are free creatures and we want them to fly wherever they wish.

    5.jpg

    What we do:
    ~ We only watch and observe our pair of birds. How do we do it? We track the radio signals (also known as social media) and make observations. @minwooluv78 @korchick @chinlylin @cannakat @sophora @mikoshine and a few others are the radio engineers and help translate the codes into English. Field observations are not central to our study. We did have @b8l8 @torreydinh @peggyW @goongfan11 file a field report recently and it was a happy, rare event.
    ~ These observations are discussed in the lounge while we have tea and snacks. We are a civilized lot.

    2012-07-24+10.25.56.jpg

    Sometimes, the bartender @packmule3 mixes a few drinks and we happily lounge and chat with fellow members.

    ~ Do remember the fellowship with other club members is as important as our study.
    @lok2ming brought us pictures from her trip to the places the birds had jaunted earlier.
    @labbit recently brought us some Korean food from her trip which we all thoroughly enjoyed. @biruangel keep reminding us of her nasi lemak breakfast in an attempt to make us hungry and head to the nearest Malaysian restaurant. @lmangla has stopped offering cakes and pastries as a favor to all those who are dieting. However, if you would like pastries, please do let her know.
    We have a fantastic time with events like micheseo march, ship appreciation, valentine's day special and w
    e recently had a birthday celebration for @angelangie.. We also have games that @spicystrawberry organizes to keep us busy in the lounge when there are long silences from the radio signals. gil_noona and @bleached have done portraits of our club members. We also have sub-club activities that @bluemoonlight @bluemoonrising and others organize especially for the PA club. @leechalee does all our creative stationary, while @bibidep collects reports of sightings from locals. These are just some of the activities that happen here and just some of what the society members do. We have many active members, as well as ones who are more quiet but we do appreciate everyone's contribution and have a great time hanging out together.

    ~ While we are enthusiastic about our study, it does not mean that we switch our brains off or we do not question some of the theories; we discuss. We are also aware that the birds might not confine to the pattern that we hope to see emerge but if that happens, c'est la vie. That is life and it is good.

    Thank You.
    Sincerely,
    Bird watcher society,
    15 TG Soompi, Shippers Moon

    twitter caption: HAPPY VALENTINE FRIDAY-!!!! OKCAT CHOCHOLATE STICKER-M.E.O.W!
    BgcF8OeCEAAFF7P.jpg

    besides the fact that chocolate was misspelled, am not sure what exactly chocolate stickers are... do folks know?
    interesting that one of the stickers say "happy day" ~ is this something taec would have said before his stint in WGM?
    P.S -- does anyone see a connection between these stickers and that drama that kwanghee was referring to when he said something about chocolate?

  8. random surfing and stumbled on this...
    not sure how accurate it since it wasn't on the translations we have but still cracked me up

    class="article-title idol-2pm" style="display:inline"2PM's Taecyeon is willing to change his fashion style for his girlfriend

    2PM’s rapper Taecyeon has revealed that he is willing to change his hairstyle and fashion if his lover requested him to do so.

    “Since I do not have any fixation with fashion, I would compromise with her. However, my hairstyle has to do with work so~,” the idol said and laughed, during an interview with Japanese magazine CanCam.

    The singer, who prefers to invite his date out by calling than texting or emailing, also likes to go shopping and choosing his clothes, if his date’s choices were not really good.

    “We would go shopping and I could come up to her with the clothing I liked and say ‘How about this?’” said the rapper, who is predicted to get married first by his fellow band mates.

    thought: both taec and guigui seem to be on the same boat with their dreadful fashion choices..( @torreydinh calls them fashion terrorist couple!)... and he will give shopping suggestions if her choices were not good?? (giggles) is this why her wardrobe from the latest show is all over the place? or is that a character map driven by the stylist?

  10. so was googling "taec orange" (for my earlier post) and saw this....
    this was some shopkeeper in thailand selling stuff way way way before okcat even started his own official shop...
    but more intrigued by the fact that there is a 6 and 9! what does this shopkeeper know that we don't @korchick??? ofcourse, it could just be inverted apostrophe and inverted apostrophe [ ' ' ]...
