Today, someone was told by one of their parents that dating a Muslim guy was a bad idea, because he was allowed to have four wives. That he could, at any time, scoot on over to Malaysia to find a second wife. Presumably, the third would come from Indonesia and perhaps the fourth from China - a nation with more Muslims than Singapore and Malaysia put together.
As preposterous as this sounds in this day and age, this isn't even the first time I've heard something like this. It makes just as much sense as a cock-flavored lollipop - borrowing from the ever-awesome Dodgeball - and it makes me sick. Granted, I'm far from the devout Muslim, but to persecute someone you hardly (or don't even) know with that kind of logic is stone-age thinking at best. It's a good thing not everyone subscribes to such neolithic beliefs.
That being said, it's been a great day and a generally amazing 2011 for me, everything's functioning splendidly.
Oh, The King's Speech is awesome. You should watch it.
