Car Jacking and Rape
Firstly, be wary of carjackers! There is a new method that carjackers are using. Imagine... you are walking to your car, you get inside, you lock your doors, put your seatbelt on, start the car, put your car in reverse and look behind you to back out of your parking space, but there is a sheet of paper on your rear window blocking your view. So, you put your car in park, undo your seatbelt, unlock your doors and hop outside to get the thing off your rear window. Meanwhile, a carjacker jumps in your running car (with your purse on the passenger's seat if you're a woman) and takes off, almost running over you in the process! The carjacker now has your car, your housekeys, and if you left your purse in your car, your Driver's License with your home address on it! Be aware of this new carjacking method! It's been a big problem in San Diego lately and was a warning issued by the San Diego Police Department.
Secondly, I was thinking about rape last night for some reason, and I came up with a couple ideas for rape prevention... What if, as the guy (or girl) was trying to rape you, you screamed, "I have AIDS! I have AIDS!" Would that deter the person from raping you? I was just wondering... it sounds like it would work, right? What if you screamed some other very contagious STD? I wonder if they would just kill you for having an STD in the first place... Hmnn...
Just a couple things to think about from your favorite, neighborhood, crime-fighting Quyen :D

boy, those carjackers are brilliant! i never would've thought of that... hrm... it's giving me some ideas... hmmmm.... :P
as far as the whole screaming, "i have aids!" is concerned... uhm... i don't know if that would work... i think the raper would think it was a ploy, i mean, if someone's raping you, would you be looking out for their health? i don't know... hehe.

I've heard of this method of carjacking before. I've never heard of it happening top anyone I've met. Then again I've never met anyone who got carjacked.
As far as the AIDS thing is concerned, I can't imagine that saying that would matter too much. In fact the best thing I've heard was from a police officer who said that screaming anything (rape, AIDS, fire) usually makes them hurt you more. But if you repulse them by suddenly shitting or pissing you might get them off of you.
Can you shit on cue?

well, what if the rapist says, that's okay, i got it, too! i doubt it would be much of a deterrance.
personally i think a finger right into the eye socket should be enough to let you make a run for it. unless it's obvious he has a gun, i would hurt him enough so i can get away. rip off his nuts or smash his adam's apple w/ your forearm.

I found this page which had some simple advice. The surprise factor will give you the advantage - most rapists will ignore the "I have aids" ruse, but pretending you're crazy or sticking your fingers down your throat are good ways of at least getting your attacker to falter.
I've also heard many rapists depend on their victims being reasonably cooperative (and women generally aren't inclined to fight very hard for a number of reasons), so the more high-maintenance you make yourself (shouting and kicking, biting, eating grass, faking a seizure, rolling your eyes back in your head and laughing maniacally, you name it) the less eager the attacker is to continue. Gives you time to get away, or get help.

Hmm indeed. I don't know whether a rapist would be too concerned about contracting an std; after all, they do rape women, oftentimes with no protection or knowledge of the woman's sexual history. To me, it sounds like someone who was really afraid of std's would stay away from rape even if they did happen to be a completely desperate and pathetic human being. However, AIDS is a pretty scary thing. I wonder how well that might work.
I think pretending to have a spasm, foaming at the mouth, blabbering incoherently, or pretending to bleed from the ass, along with any other scary behavior might actually be effective. At that point, the rapist isn't thinking you're trying to come up with excuses for him or her not to rape you, but that he or she is in some serious danger. It might not be worth it to them to take their chances and guess whether you have a dangerous communicable disease in exchange for rape.
By the way, if anyone's still trying to bash on me, you can go do it on the previous blog. My answer to the criticisms is posted there.

Nina:(((dials "Q" for Quyen))). Yes, Q, I have a slight problem with my artsy neighbor across the street. Can you help?
screen fades to black...kung foo fighting theme song ensues, big orange letter "Q" appears on a black screen
Two weeks later in Nina's neighborhood everyone is at peace. No phones are ringing, no favors being asked, and no Dick Cheney stories being told..yay Q! Q to the rescue...:)

chris, don't get all defensive. no need to take it personally... last time i checked, we don't really know each other.
also, like i said in response to the last post... i couldn't read your comment... well, i could... but i didn't want to. too wordy.
no offense. sorry if i come across as rude. just call it like i see it.

Grace, I wasn't offended by you. To the contrary, I thought you hit things right on the nail. My defensiveness comes from posts like Mike's, and those responding to the kung-fu blog, who think any occassion is an excuse to attack me. It's always surprising how much negativity and vitriol flies my way at the slightest possibility that Quyen may have been offended.
For one poster to insinuate that my telling Quyen she had buff shoulders was enough of an excuse for her to cut off all contact with me, or call me a bastard is wrong. For Mike to take that tone with me and brazenly allege that anyone can ever deserve to be cheated on is sick. Now, I understand that people become loyal to their blogger, but that doesn't make their blogger untouchable or a diety. It doesn't excuse being an ass.
Grace, I'm sorry you thought I was offended by you. I never meant to give off that impression. Nevertheless, Quyen and I have broken up, and now everyone can go back to being happy. From now on, they can attack her next boyfriend, without knowing all the facts involved, or for the fun of it.

chris, i think you took things pretty personally. it's kinda like when you're friends with someone... you're always going to side with your friend.
as for the breaking up part, i'm sorry to hear that. however, there did seem to be a lot of underlying issues, besides just the blogs and the comments. good luck in your endeavors. it's probably for the best, though. some things just can't be worked out (like lack of trust, obviously).

On a lighter note, I really do need your hotline! So far I have gathered that you can:
1. Help me move.
2. Help me find presents in super hidden spots.
3. Defend me against obnoxious neighbors.
Hmm...am I missing anything? I think you can do it all!!

Hehe... It's a girl! It's an Asian! It's Super Quyen! :D Moving large furniture with the help of someone else, finding hidden presents with her amazing mind powers, and placing burning baggies of dog shit on the doorsteps of neighbors! hehehe :P

I've got this weird visual in my head of Super Grover, with a cut out picture of Quyen's head kind of taped to the side of Grover's head.
