On The Bus #24...

Have you ever waited 40 minutes for a bus, where the bus ride only lasted 20 minutes?

Picking Drink Cans: Can or Cannot?

You may be seeing plenty of old folks around town or your neighbourhood area, opening up trash bins to pick out the empty drink cans. Common sight around Singapore? Yes, indeed. These cans sell for roughly 5 cents each at the scrap metal dealers.

Some folks take this up to supplement their income; others do it for a living.

Amazingly, there is at least one staff who involves himself actively in this activity around school.

Is the school not paying him enough? Strange indeed...

Fun With Webcams

Webcams are very useful for viewing pimples that are growing on parts of your body that you can't even see with the help of a mirror.

On The Bus #23...

And so I boarded the bus and took a seat. The driver was looking in the mirror for a very long time, staring at somebody in the seat behind.

He drove off after about half a minute of staring into the rear view mirror.

Stopped at the next stop. He let some passengers up, and resumed staring to the mirror.

Somebody pressed the bell. Three teenage girls walked up to the exit. Bus pulls into the next stop, the driver looks into the mirror and says "Come to the front, disembark from here" (in Mandarin). Girls didn't hear the driver, stands at the exit. Driver refuses to open the exit.

Driver gets up and stands in the aisle of the bus, looking at the girls. One of them was carrying a cup of bubble tea.

Driver says "Why you purposely want to do that? You don't know cannot bring that up here?" He points at the No Drinking/Eating sign on the bus. Everybody else was looking at the ongoing commotion.

Girls stare back at him, not answering him. One of them brushes her hair with her hand like nothing happened.

Driver stares at them, obviously a pissed bull. He saunters back to his drivers' seat, and opens the exit. Girls get off, driver turns back and looks at the girls at the bus-stop for a very long time.

Can't say who was wrong, just a bystander. Nothing to see here, move along.

Mints

Prolonged consumption of mints carries the reverse effect that Viagra has on men.

The Law of Being Taken for Granted

The time you spend online using your favourite IM is proportional to the degree to which your friends take you for granted.

To counter this, do the Houdini Act.
