Almost Daily Interviews part 1 (MrMiyagi)

and what are you looking at?

MrMiyagi runs the very popular My Very Own Glob, which has more then a trillion billion zillion people visiting each day for their daily dose of bizzare english, singapore celebrity spotting and overall insane banter.

He is one of the few bloggers whom I have met up with in person. We first hooked up in Hong Kong and found we had nothing in common except similar taste in women. One interesting fact about MrMiyagi is that he is one of the few local popular bloggers who has dared to post his dashing photos on the internet.

I have chosen to interview MrMiyagi today because although we all read his blog, we rarely understand the true man behind the blogging facade. I hope that this interview gives you a rare insight into his true personality and finally answer the question you’ve all been wanting to ask but never dared - Is he gay?

Caleb says:
Ok how are you this lovely and wonderful evening?

Miyagi, Mister says:
I am good but tired.

Caleb says:
Sit up straight boy and answer me - do you understand that everything you say to me tonight will be posted on my blog, so God help you?

Miyagi, Mister says:
Yes. (whimper)

Caleb says:
Your blog has been getting a lot of attention in the local blogosphere lately, to what do you attribute your success to?

Miyagi, Mister says:
It’s not what you do or what you know, but who you know. I attribute it to my connections with the glitterati.

Ase Wang cuddles up to Miyagi

Caleb says:
Which brings me to my next question, are those photos of you and local celebrities, well done photoshop images or actual photos?

Miyagi, Mister says:
Actual photos of course. Every single one of them. Even the one with Ase Wang

Caleb says:
I heard that you’re currently dating a local celebrity - truth or fiction?

Miyagi, Mister says:
fiction. She’s not a celebrity yet. But I’ll make a celebrity out of her yet!

Caleb says:
Errr but the celebrity in question is a guy!

Miyagi, Mister says:
Ah, totally unfounded. She’s got short cropped hair, you see. Easily mistaken.

Caleb says:
No more questions about your sexuality. Next question: How are you and MrBrown linked? You and him and another blogger seem to be having some sort of menage a troi with linking back and forth to each other.

Miyagi, Mister says:
Another blogger? What other blogger? No-one comes between me and Brownie!

Caleb says:
haha, what are you guys? Old school mates or something?

Miyagi, Mister says:
Yes, I say Sec Two, he say Pri Two. He’s trying to dig up photos to prove he’s right.

Caleb says:
Apart from blogging, what is it that you actually do in real-life? To pay the bills I mean.

Miyagi, Mister says:
I teach gymnastics. No, seriously. And no, I’m not gay fer the last time.

Caleb says:
I detect a lot of hidden anger in your posts. Where am I getting this bad vibe from?

Miyagi, Mister says:
Hidden meh? May be indigestion.

Caleb says:
yeah, hidden deep deep

Miyagi, Mister says:
Bad vibes from suffering fools all week. And I’m not talking about the kids I teach.

Caleb says:
Who do you think should have won the Asian Bloogies award?

Miyagi, Mister says:
For the Singapore Category? Brownie of course.

Caleb says:
How about non-singapore?

Caleb says:
FYI, I think you could come in a close second but the Brown has a newpaper column - how to compete?

Miyagi, Mister says:
Non-Singapore… honestly, I don’t read that many blogs, but the Peking Duck’s one of my regular haunts. (Was he nominated)?

Miyagi, Mister says:
Nah, can’t say until like that. Most of the readers of his column don’t even go to his blog.

Caleb says:
That’s a good point. Maybe cause he didnt publish his URL with his column.

Caleb says:
What are the 3 things you want to do before you drop dead?

Miyagi, Mister says:
Good question. Was just asking myself that over dinner.

Miyagi, Mister says:
Erm… dunno. Go wakeboarding.

Caleb says:
haha

Miyagi, Mister says:
Go diving?

Miyagi, Mister says:
Third one…. do twins. Opps, I’ve done that. Shit.

Miyagi, Mister says:
Nothing to live for liao!

Fiona Xie is good for your blog

Caleb says:
What inspires the bizarre posts on your blog?

Miyagi, Mister says:
OK, I’ll just answer this like there are bizarre posts on my blog….

Caleb says:
ok

Miyagi, Mister says:
Nothing, really. Stream of consciousness. I learnt that from Fiona Xie.

Caleb says:
What’s with the self-invented language on your blog?

Caleb says:
people have noticed that you re-invent the English language regularly

Miyagi, Mister says:
Don’t anyhowly say. Where got elf-invented language?

Caleb says:
maybe you were dropped on your head as a wee lad.

Caleb says:
anyway moving on - Do you have any advise to give to new local bloggers?

Miyagi, Mister says:
Yes. If you’re not into inventing new words, then spell properly, punctuate properly, and capitalise the first word of every sentence.

Caleb says:
Will that make them rich beyond their wildest dreams through blogging?

Miyagi, Mister says:
It will definitely make them sound as if they were. Hell yes.

Caleb says:
Last question - are you sure you’re not gay?

Miyagi, Mister says:
I know where you live. You better lock them doors tonight asshole.

Caleb says:
Thank you very much for your time. I swear not to edit a single word of this conversation, so help me God.

So…technically he never said he wasn’t gay.

nah he ain’t gay.

Lousy interviewer never asked interviewee to elaborate on the romp with the twins.

Miyagi teaches gymnastics? That’s pretty hot. Does he also teach karate, like the original Miyagi? How can I sign up for lessons?

FF > That part was censored out, there are NC-16 kids reading this blog.

aneki > Probably. I am scared of him. He’s very very fit. And he looks good in a tight red polo tee.

That was too funny! :)

more interviews please! I think it’s better than the audiorama.

Dang! the pic’s so big i got his face stuck in my mind…how to sleep like dat? *wince*

I thought Miyagi’s married? Argh… I’m confused here :D!

Excellent interview. And not a single word was edited?!? My goodness….

Actually, not really a bad pic…

Yeah, quite sexy the look - rumpled hair and slight sneer. Most of my paikias have this look.

Oh caleb you just help increase mr miyagi’s points wif the ladies.. ding ding ding!

ah, so THAT’s what its all about! he teaches gymnastics and romps with twins?!

as for the picture - no comments…. :P

I hear he looks like Jay Chou, under certain lighting conditions.

mb: in the absense of light ah?
miyagi: kidding..

Aiyah Mandrake, don’t say out loud mah. I purposely left it vague and then you come out and shoot. Heheh.

probably in the light of an volcanic eruption

wahahahaha….i think miyag makes a mediocre lawyer..since most of us can’t, which in the end still is a compliment. Hehehehehhee
I almost died smiling to myself while multi-tasking other work. :P

good blognalism…keep it up!

ha.. mb, couldn’t resist..

fwah, pretty lights… *inhale joint*…

Isn’t it spelt “menage a trois”? :0

I wouldnt know, I only speak english unfortunately.

*ruffles Miyagi’s hair more*

Too bad he’s not gay. (Are we back to that again???) Would’ve been fun to have a fling with Migayi-san. Rub on, Rub off. Rub on, rub o. . . (cold shower time)
