The Ugly Truth About Singaporeans!
Don't let the media or the Government fool you into thinking that this country (and it's foreign invaders) is gracious and law obiding. Everyone will try to get away with "murder" if given the opportunity. Socially, this country is utter shit. A simple thing like getting people to queue orderly is a feat that God has given up a long time ago.
You see it everyday. Some people will just adopt ignorance and be oblivious to everything else... and sneakily (or blatantly) cut the queue. At the subway, at bus stops, at food court... even if there are queue polls to "guide"... there will always be one or two who will be "blind". I see it everyday too, on my way to work at Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal... especially Fridays when there's an excessive amount of travelers to Bintan and Batam. And there's always this particular breed of "Singaporean Aunties" as well as mainland Chinese "talents", who will fake ignorance... walk "aimlessly" and then before you can blink your eye, they've managed to sneak in front of the queue.
Well, I've had it. If no one is going to say a thing, I WILL! Which is what I did to one particular such character on Friday. As she was wavering towards the front of the queue, I shouted, "Hello! Lao (old) Auntie with red top, don't cut queue, ok?"
She pretended to be deaf so I walked towards her and tapped her on the shoulders and repeated what I said.
She replied, "oh, this is the front of the queue? I thought it was the back."
"Hello, Auntie. Want to tell lies, please try harder, can? You think we stupid is it?"
Then her husband came and ask why I'm making a fuss when the rest of the people are not. My reply to him?
Wrong day, wrong person to try and take advantage of.
Best Joke Of The Week...

Due to heavy full-time work commitment and time constraints, this is going to be last mix show for Lush FM. The response has been good since I decided to move the show away from the usual staple "House" direction and we've in the process introduced and given the "trance" genre a different and more meaningful twist instead of the tried-and-tested euphoric sounds. Some listeners have reverted and called the past few shows "trance that makes sense". Nonetheless, I'm very thankful for the past years of on-air support. Till the next time... I leave with a heavy heart.

What is a typical Singapore heartlander?
Taking notes from my past and current neighbours; as well as from encounters and incidents that I've witnessed... I conclude that a typical Singapore heartlander is :
1. Chinese educated; but possesses a superb command of broken English (Singlish).
i.e. "Later we go sit BUTT and go see PICTURE."
(meaning, to take the BUS to the cinema)
2. Self-centered, noisy and only cares about others for the sake of gossiping. i.e. "What happen to Ah Seng? He owe Ah Long money, ah? Why like that?"
3. Stupid and ignorant. Believes everything the Government and media tells them. i.e. "Must vote them leh, then got upgrading mah!"
4. Thinks Microsoft is better than Mac OS. (see no. 3)
i.e. "School and office use Windows, leh. If no good, why they use, neh?
5. Pretends to queue but will cut the line when the opportunity raises... especially when blindsiding and hijacking a taxi from you on the roads.
6. Reserves seats EVERYWHERE will a cheap tissue paper packet... including onboard ferries to Batam / Bintan / Desaru. I hate to tell them but on international waters, Singapore practices "tak pakai".
7. Subscribes to the stereotype art-of-Singapore-living. Study, get job, find partner, marriage, buy HDB flat, fuck, have babies, send kids to study, retire and work part-time at McDonalds, die in old folks home in Johor Bahru.
8. Sees western values as evil and alienating. i.e. free speech, democracy and promiscuity.
9. Loves his / her cellphone ringtone... although others might find it fucking irritating. (see No. 2)
10. Lies a lot; especially to their retarded kids. i.e. "You better behave or else policeman catch you!"
I could go on to at least 100. I just loathe them although I stay in a public housing. They are every-fucking-where!!! Two of the worst are my left and right neighbours. One has demonic kids that rollerblade along the corridor. The other burns incense that smell like Mumbai and burns prayer papers along the corridor. My wish this Christmas? The kids rollerblading, colliding into the burning bin and setting themselves on fire along the corridor... and me coming to their aid, with kerosene (thinking that it's water).
Screw being gracious!!!
This past week, two incidents which is more than enough to convince me not to subscribe to the "gracious society" train of thought that the government has been selling all the while.
Midweek, while boarding the ferry on the way to work... some late 50-plus year old "ah soh" cuts the queue from behind me and rushing into my path. Being blind-sided by her, I collided into her. Instead of saying sorry (since it was her that came from behind), she went on to scold me for not looking where I was walking and went on to insult my upbringing and etc.
Wrong person to tick off, bitch! I set the record straight verbally... "Just because you're OLD doesn't gave you the fucking right to cut queue or expect people to give in to you, especially when you're clearly in the wrong."
She let out a string of vulgarities at me.
Like I said, wrong person to be fucking with, stupid old hag!
I blocked her path and asked her what she's going to do about it. Seriously, what kind of mentality do most of these retarded Singaporeans have?
Second incident... yesterday night while having dinner out at a steamboat eatery. Most of the tables are TWO-seaters and practically every table is taken. An unkle / auntie couple next to us were eating and gets a phonecall from their daughter, saying that she'll be joining them. Go figure, they're in a TWO-seater table and yet they still agree to have their daughter join them. 5 minutes into the wait, reality dawned upon them that the place is running at FULL HOUSE capacity and due to the lack of space, there is NO WAY to include another chair just for their "precious daughter". The auntie begins to tell her husband... hinting at my table may be done soon, or maybe he can ask me to shift elsewhere so as to accommodate them. Thankfully, the unkle did not ask me... otherwise I'll reply, "DO I LOOK LIKE I CARE?"
I can't be arsed to be nice to people. It's just pointless. SELF is more important! Don't be stupid enough to be "gracious" and then let the rest of the citizens and "foreign talent" climb all over you head to shit.
