Amusing
1) Philosophy Night
Description: "Stimulate your mind while you explore and discuss a selected topic with other intellectual singles. A philosopher will facilitate and provide guidance in the lively discourse. This event is for singles who like to engage in thinking and expressing their thoughts and ideas."
This was supposed to be on 12th February, but it got cancelled. Probably because Singaporeans (or at least SDN members) aren't intellectual enough. Or maybe because it cost $88 (do philosophers cost that much to hire?!)
2) Economics of Dating
Description 1 (as of 23rd February): "Enjoy an interactive afternoon with other singles! Find out answers to your pondering questions using economic principles and decode the language of love. Price includes signature drink, desserts and light refreshments."
Description 2 (as of today): "Find out answers to your pondering questions using economic principles and decode the language of love. We'll have a Guest Speaker - a Phd in Economics from Harvard University. Price includes signature drink, desserts and light refreshments."
This still seems to be on for 13th March. Possibly because it costs only $48 - economists are cheaper to hire than philosophers (consider too that presumably refreshments weren't included for the first event).
I still say you get better value with my Unemployment Theory of Relationships.
