Observations - 11th March 2013

Amused that those who criticise Singapore's xenophobic climate because of 'xenophobic stereotypes' are also stereotyping.

Many companies like to boast of how 'diverse' they are, by showing how many countries their employees come from. A concentration ratio of their top four to five countries would be a lot more revealing than the current misleading rhetoric.


"Grow some tits and woman up!" This almost translates well...

"For those of you guys out there who are able to concentrate on two things at a time, here are two breasts"

"never take dating advice from a woman, instead observe men who get attractive women you want...far more instructive."

RT @TheFunnySexist: If a woman says she's wrong, is she still wrong?

RT @9GAG: "I wanna kiss you so bad right now." "what?" "Damn autocorrect, I meant hey"


RT @Women_Sports I do it because I can. I can because I want to. I want to because you said I couldn’t.
Reverse psychology! Now I know how to encourage women. And how to get them to kill themselves ("I know you can't sail around the world solo")

RT @lysandrenadeau: Cette nuit, j'ai rêvée que je couchais avec mon prof de 60 ans... homosexuel. Je ne le regarderais plus jamais de la même façon.

"Aujourd'hui, j'ai postulé pour le stage de mes rêves en Angleterre. Le problème ? J'ai demandé un "sex-month internship" au lieu d'un stage de "six" mois. J'attends la réponse avec impatience. VDM"

"Whats LGBT?" "Let's Get Busy Together."

""Once I asked my xtian friend if he believe in aliens ufo and big foot.
He said no, then I told him that there were books, information online, shown on documentaries and movie concepts, so there is no reason he shouldnt believe.
He then told me he never encounter alien before so unless he seen one otherwise he will not believe.
Then I ask him why he believe in god. Ever since he never talk to me again. ""

Amusing exchanges on NUS Confessions:

"To the random guy who gave me the Kikkoman soya sauce and said good luck to midterms, it's a damn lousy way to start a conversation. What do you expect me to do with it? Cook for you? That's no way to get to know a girl much less impress her."
"He thinks you're tasteless that's why he got the soya sauce."
"Kikkoman Singapore Managing Director was in NUS today for a guest lecture. Are sure it is not him who approached you? you could have missed an opportunity to marry a millionaire"
"Did he pair it with a pickup line, something like,"Soya free tonight?""
"eh, is that a freebie from the itadakimasu module? He probably doesn't know what to with it either, lol"
"Kikkoman soya sauce insinuating you belong in the kitchen? The ___!"

"To the Indian girl driving a black car in the carpark outside Eusoff Hall, shortly before 8pm today: If you're going to reverse into a pedestrian crossing without giving any warning or even checking your mirror (because your conversation with your friend was evidently THAT engaging), PLEASE QUIT DRIVING. YOU'RE A DANGER TO US PEDESTRIANS. That stupid surprised grin of yours isn't going to be much help when you knock down one of us."
"is there really a need to highlight the race? -.-:"
"is there really a need to highlight the colour of the car? -.-:"
"is there really a need to highlight gender? -.-:"
"if nothing was highlighted, how would the said person identify her/himself?"
"Is there really a need to highlight the friend?"
"Is there really a need to highlight your lecture notes? Combo breaker!"
"Is there really a need to highlight the details?"
"Whats wrong with highlighting the gender and race? Ever read the local papers before? Describing a rapist who is "a middle aged indian man" doesnt mean im a racist, a sexist and a person that condemns middle-aged ppl."
"And why should s/he not highlight the race and gender? Oh, clearly, only that Indian girl drives a black car. All Chinese men drives yellow cars, All Chinese women drive orange cars. All Malay men drive, oh I don't know? Red motorcycles?"

"I hate it when people update their facebook status every 5 minutes and put emo lyrics or whatever. Then when the friends ask about it, they just go "oh, just a nice song". I also hate it when people put up phoney philosophical statements on facebook so damn irritating."

"a tip : guys usually dont friendzone girls in bodycons. so go work some magic :)"

"All the whining about girls wanting to date/marry ang mohs... There's that other side to it: Singapore girls are beautiful. But as an exchange student I only saw a few that I would actually date and not just leave after a night, the reasons being extreme shallowness, shitty taste in music, taking hobbies and traveling to places for posing rather than enjoyment, and super-high maintenance. Had I not been attached I would probably have wreaked havoc and wouldn't have felt bad about it either. You guys are probably better off if you let the girls aiming for the ang mohs get what they deserve."

"You must choose your university wisely! You can divorce your wife, you can disown your children but you can’t get rid of your degree," said an econs professor."
