Well, as old-school as I’m going to get while still maintaining forwards compatibility, that is.

Don’t Sweat It!
When you live in a hot place like Malaysia, you sweat.
Sweat makes your skin all sticky.
Contrary to popular opinion, showers don’t help. They’re only there to get you wet.
No matter how many showers you take in a day, it doesn’t help alleviate the fact that you’re sticky – because that’s how you’re going to stay.
Every time you take a shower, it’s not helping how sticky you are. What it is doing, is washing off the previous day’s stickyness so you can build up a new layer – paving the road with a red carpet for more sweat; more stickiness.
The solution?
Don’t sweat.
I’m not kidding, either. If you don’t sweat, you don’t get sticky, and it’s as simple as that.
Keep cool, and don’t sweat. Works every time, although it can be a little hard to achieve.
Air Con helps a massive amount, as does dehydration. When you’re dehydrated, you don’t sweat (as much), but you also feel like crap 100% of the time, which is why I recommend copious amounts of air conditioning.
So – lesson for the day?
Don’t sweat it.

Ultra-Minimalism: 19 Cool Products
Sometimes modern design and minimalism go a little too far and it’s hard to figure out exactly what the products are. We’ve tracked down 19 products that look quite cool but leave you wondering wtf?
via Ultra-Minimalism: 19 Cool Products That Are Almost Impossible to Use | Cool Material.
Some of my faves:
Phillippe Starck Veiled Watch
If I wore a watch, this is the watch I’d be wearing.
Transformer Shelves
If I had the need for some new shelves, these would be the shelves of choice.
Fuksas Mocha Cups
Just like those funky cups they use at Max Brenner Chocolate in Melbourne, these would be some seriously awesome cups to have.
