Making a Mess... Or Sour Grapes at its Best

Again, let the pictures do the talking. This was taken from the papers from 15 October 2008 (don't let the date at the top bother you; the guy maintaining the website is sleeping as usual):



The next time I accidentally set my ez-link card alight and it burns to kingdom-come, I shall bring that small pile of ashes (or what's remaining of my ez-link card) out to the bus/MRT/LRT, tell the bus driver/station master to let me travel, since "they do not lose anything from it".

Talk about being a stupid fool, Mr. Kan. If you accidentally destroyed the vouchers, and all you bring to the cashier at the check-out counter is a heap of colored paper which looks like the remains of your 4 x $10 vouchers, and they still let you redeem the vouchers, then I can do the below:

I can go print out online specimens of the vouchers, wet it and crush it and mangle it up, and bring to the cashier and demand for it to be redeemed. There is no way to trace it, no way to track it, no way to monitor the abuse of voucher redemption process.

In fact, if they still let you redeem the vouchers, every motherfucker out there on the streets would do the same as me too!

Talk about being sour grapes.

No shit man. Then again, the exchange will only occur after the "extent of the damage has been assessed".

Looks good on paper, still doesn't mean a 100% guaranteed exchange. :)

Barbecues and Such...

When it comes to a barbecue, there are some interesting observations one can make:

1) Nobody likes/wants to be the one helping to start the fire. They think it's a shit and dirty job.
2) Nobody likes to eat fruits after a barbecue. It just isn't right.
3) Nobody likes to eat barbecued vegetables. It's just too weird to be eating that shit when you're supposed to be cooking and grilling meat.
4) People blame others when things go wrong, but rarely shower praises when things are done right.
5) You can safely go away into one corner and do nothing, and yet the barbecued food will still be miraculously served up to you.
6) Kind souls do exist in this world, but only after they have been guilt-ridden at seeing a sight which they sympathize with.
7) Not many fools are left in this world who are willing to go to hell in place of others who refuse to.
8) Under the influence of alcohol, people will laugh at you if you are not entertaining enough. The irony!
9) Being the one in charge of the barbecue pit fire is the only job that allows you to keep your silence and yet not be labeled as an introvert.
10) When the drinks/beer runs out, it means that it's time to go home.

What Girls Like (And Dislike)... #2

When you go for a BBQ with your friends, the girls who go for manicures want nothing to do with helping out at the fire pit.

The ones who do help out at the fire pit are the ones who don't go for manicures.

Free? Or Not Free?

I seriously have no idea WTF these people are thinking. Let the pictures tell the story:




'Nuff said about it. Piece of shit.

10 Things That Says You're a Singaporean

1) You complain that the weather is so damned !#$%^&* hot... and then you go home to take a hot water shower.

2) You go up to a snack shop to buy some food and drinks, and the lady behind the counter shouts at you "COME! HELLO!", which... doesn't... really... make... sense..., but you don't bother about why anyway.

3) Your destination is only one or two bus stops away, but you still take a bus anyway.

4) Guys: You've got a big bag of green shit sitting in a corner in your room... somewhere.

5) You complain about rising ERP charges, and then you get into your car to drive past more ERP gantries.

6) You feel so ecstatic and jubilant about the silver medal achieved in the recent Olympic Games 2008, but yet you don't realize that it is the biggest insult to Mr. Tan Howe Liang.

7) When there are a few ATMs in a particular location and the queue doesn't form on one of the machines, you know that there is something wrong with that machine.

8) You still go up to the machine to try it anyway.

9) When you are interviewed on TV, you go, "uh.. ah... don't know leh. No opinions. Like that lor, already done liao, what more can I say?"

10) Or you give a quick wave of your hand when you spot the fella with the microphone approach and say, "Sorry not interested."

11) You suffer from a serious bout of recency bias.
