Observations - 8th November 2018

Maybe people are religious about their diets because they are hard so they need religious zeal to sustain them

"People used to curse taxi drivers and companies and praise Grab and Uber
Now they curse Grab and praise... taxi companies
Market competition!"
"It IS the lesser of two evils. Especially with Grab, they can just ban you from using the app without giving you proper reasons. And if you have GrabPay unused credits, they can forfeit it."
"my recent uber driver who is forced to go onto grab says that uber drivers and passengers are more civil towards each other than grab ones :S
he said it's because uber charges passengers if they cancel or MIA and this puts the onus on them to wait for the drivers who will usually return the courtesy... and that grab passengers are usually late which causes the drivers to give angry calls to the passengers who then turn up in a foul mood so it's a vicious cycle"

"Beauty fades, dumb is forever"

If a news story came out reporting that a study concluded that fire could be useful in the development of civilisation, there would be people indignantly condemning it in the comments and talking about how fire killed 10 kids the previous week


"those of my friends who have gone to work in chinese companies/ take the chinese govt grants etc have always ended up having to push the PRC agendas
i can't recall any exceptions...
basically writing all sorts of articles to say which China is correct, why what they advocate is correct etc etc"

"[China is] finalising the research which shows that Zheng He reached USA
before Columbus
Guess who is gonna kena claimed..."

"China has not been completely successful in its efforts to support science over mythology. But it has been successful in reducing the influence of religion at the national policy level – that is a real triumph"
When you hate religion so much you promote human rights violations


So if you use an iPhone, when you're overseas your phone may incur data roaming charges even if data is disabled because of automatic VoLTE connections. No wonder it's a phone for rich people

Modern version of fengshui: Finding and eliminating wireless dead zones


If someone tells me not to buy him a present and I do so anyway, technically I am violating his consent

"I am becoming increasingly sceptical of rape claims
Thanks in part to my female friends that said they were raped
Your instinct is to believe them, but as time goes on and the more details they add to their story you get the impression that a lot of things are not kosher about the truthfulness of their narrative
It also starts to come off as them trying to convince themselves they were victimised
i think there is only one case in which i came across where the female was victimised. the other cases I had fell apart when critically examined. if anything it seems to be good material for a study into how women may actually be instinctively using victimisation as a tool of male manipulation. it stands to reason that women descended from ancestors that were good at the art of male manipulation"

"One can speculate why- but women have a drive to invade male spaces and control them... it is a constant sore point for feminists that while women make up most of consumers in society it is the enterprises started and run by men that generate the most value
Creating enterprises from the ground up is too difficult for feminists- so the natural drive is to invade, co-opt and control already successful enterprises run by men
Be it demanding top companies promote women to their board, lowering standards for women in the military and fire service, or taking successful male-oriented cultural franchises and destroying them to get women on board"

"Stop being offended by what someone said to you, by that Facebook post, by a piece of art, by people displaying their affection. Be offended by WAR, POVERTY, INJUSTICE."


"The difference between being romantic and being creepy depends on how attractive you are"

I would pay money to see what happens when undesirable women throw themselves at incels

"I think relationship should be like Nintendo 64-Classic, fun to spend hours with, and every issue easily fixed by blowing on it then shoving it back in."

"sex work is the only activity where hiring a professional is considered wrong and is often illegal"

"aiyah after awhile u realise PMS = pre, present and post
ie. perpetual"

"I spent my whole life trying not to be careless. Women and children can afford to be careless, but not men"

"A woman's loyalty is tested when her man has nothing. A man's loyalty is tested when he has everything"

"I once had a chat with prostitute who was fishing for business at a karaoke place and she told me not to feel sorry for women in their profession as they are very clear about their motivations. It was always about easy money, and no other job pays better. And don't be moved by their sob stories because it was just a sales tactic to increase your generosity."
