Observations - 8th April 2011

"We don't know what we want, but we are ready to bite somebody to get it." - Will Rogers

Not sure what is more amusing to survey on the night of Valentine's Day: Geylang or one's office

On m'avait dit que je ne le jamais ferait. Alors, je l'ai fait deux fois plutôt qu'une. Je le ferai une troisième, je le jure.

The two life event you meet people at - weddings and funerals

"There are no ugly women, there is just not enough wine"

Some Scientists (especially Physicists) bash the Social Sciences for being unscientific, uncertain, having too many variables that one cannot say anything for certain and similar reasons. I wonder what they think of Climate Science

The cat lobby is a lot more rabid than the lobby. This shows you that pussies are evil and they are the downfall of mankind. Probably it's toxoplasmosis.

Apparently in China there're men raped by old women. I must be using the wrong keywords (specifically, English ones)


If you can't get what you want, want what you get. If you don't get anything, convert to Buddhism.

Just because you have a dream you're passionate about doesn't mean you're not deluded. Look at a cold fusion conference

Exceptions always exist but it's retarded looking for needles in haystacks rather than the supermarket.


"working at an ang mo firm = good wrk life balance for more $$$ ;)"

Earrings on guys seem to be accepted in most professions, except for teaching, the uniformed services (though "the regulars in my camp wear ear studs some times. #safbands"), probation officers, aircrew and lawyers in front of judges. For some reason all but one are associated with the public sector

MOM poster - 'Stay informed, know your rights and responsibilities'. They need another: 'You're not covered under the Employment Act, suckers!'


Apparently insurance in Singapore's the most expensive in the world. Might be related to the shitty interest rates.

In my experience, Chinese Singaporeans know more Malay and Indian words than the Chinese/Chinese 'dialect' words that Malays and Indians know. This is ironic, given the stereotype that the minority has to adapt to the majority, and the latter can ignore the former.

A tank on top of a trailer speeding down the road read: 'non-portable water'. Double FAIL!

Misandristic Brother ad: 'For women. And men who can follow simple instructions'. If AWARE complains I'm shaving my head.

'$2 Blow' - unfortunate typo for dessert place. In Geylang.


"This time, it's different" applies to elections as much as it does to financial crises. (@spoonrabbit: as much as it does to boyfriends. and choice of drink at martini hour.)

If GST does not rise within a year of the election, I'm donating my pork barrel money to charity.


RT @CharlieSheeny Cleavage: Remember, it's like looking into the sun. You're not supposed to stare at it.

RT: @rudeshock: If voting changes anything, they'd make it illegal. #hardtruths

RT @spoonrabbit @gssq: "People say I [am] a misogynist." me: "I don't think you're a misogynist, you're just an asshole."


"Today, I found out that if you see a picture in your boss's office of a extremely good looking, big breasted woman kissing him on the cheek, not to comment. Because that extremely good looking, big breasted woman, just might be his daughter. FML"

"Today, my girlfriend thought it would be sexy to stick her finger up my ass during sex. I screamed like a little girl and barely managed to finish. Afterward, she said, 'Now you know how it feels.' FML"

"Today, I wore my cheerleading uniform to my boyfriend's house. He was a nerd in high school and mentioned a fantasy about hooking up with a cheerleader. I started acting sassy and a little mean, figuring he would enjoy a more realistic experience. Apparently not, because he started to cry. FML"

RT: @evilyweebly: Math lecture on probability. 'Jack gets Tail, Mary gets tail, Jack gets head' HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA.

@judacris: Little girls, don't dream about having ponies and being
princesses. They will grow old and die, just like your dreams
Me: All princesses become Empress Dowagers one day!

RT @kouya I don't understand how the people of Tunisia overthrew their government without me signing an e-petition or changing my Twitter avatar
