I was searching something worth to read today and bumped into this article from local newspaper Sunday Star written by Lam Seng Fatt.

A COUPLE of weeks ago, I picked up a new word, “fubu”, which, I was told, is short for f*** buddy.
A fubu is someone that you have a relationship with which is not committed, but if you want sex, he is there for you. But the fubu can be the partner of another person too. It was a gay friend who told me this and initially I thought it was common only in gay circles.
Recently I was told that fubus can be found in heterosexual circles too. I was told of 20-something girls who pick up men in clubs and, if they are in the mood, they bed them without blinking an eye. And later on, if either party is in the mood, they just call or SMS each other to fix a tryst.
And these are not the screwed-up kids from broken homes or who had suffered abuse and want to take it out against a society or system that failed them. These are well-educated young adults from good, stable middle-class families who lack nothing. They know what they want, they are aware of what they are doing, they know the consequences of sex with multiple partners such as the possibility of getting AIDS and other STDs or unwanted pregnancies (“I use protection” is the buzz phrase), but they throw caution to the wind and reach out to grab whatever that satisfies them, even if it is transient.
Random Touché

Hello World,
Again, I’m restarting my internet life with another moment to roll on (almost everyone blog these days eh?). This time it will be proper than the previous project I had before. In other words, I am going to contribute a more productive, critical and mature content to fill my free time besides having unnecessary dirty thoughts playing in my mind. It took me quite sometime to come out with this theme and name. Simply said, I need a change, a change for good.
So why Random Touché? From Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary, Random is “without sb deciding in advance what is going to happen, or without any regular pattern” while Touché is “exclamation (from French) used during an argument or a discussion to show that you accept that sb has answered your comment in a clever way and has gained an advantage by making a good point”. By other means the blog will contain random insights including some hits and misses thus please bear the occasional non-excessive JPEG flooding and disorder pattern of ranting. Finally, pardon the language if any of the entries do not up to the standard quality of tertiary students writing. Well, I’m open for comments, good day!
