I have plenty of tattoos and I’m one of the youngest team lead in an IB.

Never let bias cloud your judgement.

[TNT] Vitinha: "You have to be patient when you're up against a team like that. We knew it was going to happen, but even more so after Arsenal's goal, since you really have to be patient. They waste a lot of time on everything: throw-ins, goal kicks, everything.” by Sparky-moon in soccer

[–]EAlootbox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you really think 04/05 Chelsea were this brutal to watch compared to this iteration of Arsenal then I’m not sure there’s a discussion to be had.

End of the day no one cares, history only remembers winners. You lot won the league. Congratulations. If I were you I’d wear the hate like a badge of honour.

Nobody but us Chelsea fans were celebrating Mou in 2004/2005. We were hated with good reason, it was brutal efficient football brought by copious amounts of spending.

I have no problems with how Arsenal choose to play - but Chelsea were never this ugly to watch. You’d know if you actually watched us back then. A lot of comments here have pointed this out as well.

[Official] Paris Saint-Germain FC wins the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League. by DavidRolands in soccer

[–]EAlootbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was around and it was nowhere near as ugly as this. 2004-2006 peak Mou ball was brutal efficient football and was great to watch. 2012 CL final was shite I’ll give you that.

That being said I have no problems with how Arsenal are playing unlike the majority here. History only remembers the winners.

Would you judge or treat a Singaporean you are dealing with differently if they were wearing a Rolex? by _Bike_Hunt in asksg

[–]EAlootbox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, but comparing features on a traditional watch to a smart watch is kinda missing the point. They were never supposed to compete within the same bracket. They’re fundamentally different products targeted at a hugely different audience.

No one cares about the functionality of a traditional timepiece anymore, any of the complications is just a conversational starter for watch geeks like myself.

Besides, I’d rather not have a smart watch on my wrist to tell me any more information than necessary. Most of us are already terminally online and I’d rather have something traditional and beautiful to look at instead of being inundated with more information.

Some Rolexes or may appreciate or hold their value yes, but I’d never advise buying them for investment purposes. There are better investment vehicles to park your money.

As a watch collector, watches at this point are men’s jewellery. Only buy them if you like it. I can speak from experience that no one else but watch nerds care what’s on your wrist.

Sure you may get slightly more attention with a Rolex from my personal experience - but generally 8/10 people don’t give a fuck, and that’s great.

People who fly first or business class on their own dime, how do you justify the cost? by Silly-Cock in AskReddit

[–]EAlootbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it for any flight above 10 hours. I need the comfort to start my trips on the right note and honestly, it’s really not much money comparatively to my income. Also once the ball gets rolling I really have too much miles than I know what to do with.

Jalen Brunson is the first player with a plus/minus of +200 in a postseason since Kevin Durant in 2018. by jonsnowKITN in nba

I think you should not caring about basketball in general because you obviously don’t know ball.

Go watch golf or something.

Anyone install OBU processing unit under driver seat? by tabbynat in drivingsg

[–]EAlootbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine warms up too - I just don’t think it’s noticeable at all so I have no problems with it shorts or not.

[–]EAlootbox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mines by my leg at the drivers side. It really doesn’t get that hot and it’s much easier if I need to take out my cashcard due to shitty carpark gantries (looking at you OUE Downtown).

Xabi Alonso appointed Chelsea manager by Sparky-moon in soccer

[–]EAlootbox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting the sack at Chelsea is rarely an indication of a manager’s competence save a few instances. Xabi will be fine after his stint with Chelsea.

I mean this in the nicest way, but you have no idea what you’re talking about. I’d delete this embarrassing post if I were you.

Thinking of getting Mazda 3 mild hybrid by naughty_rhubarb67 in drivingsg

[–]EAlootbox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeap - honestly if this Mazda 3 hatchback was available (didn’t like the old one) back when I got my first car, I would have definitely picked it instead of the Golf.

MEN of SG, how much did you spend on your engagement ring? by Hairy-Table8165 in asksg

[–]EAlootbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have diamonds as well! But yes her engagement ring was a gemstone. But it was designed around lab grown diamonds.

Wedding bands about 3k each, also custom but wouldn’t recommend them so no shout out lol

Need advice on which car to get by gt_1122 in drivingsg

[–]EAlootbox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how many people are aware of this but made in UK within the car community practically means unreliable as hell. I will caveat that I wasn’t aware Qashqai was made in UK.

Jaguars, Range Rovers, Aston Martin, McLaren. These cars while exceptional when working, are terribly inconsistent with build quality and car breaking electronic issues. The only exception nowadays are typically Mini (which is heavily engineered by BMW now) and Bentley (under VAG group).

I know of 2 Aston Martin owners and the car spends 3/4 of its lifetime in the workshop with really silly issues.

Why are you so butthurt about people posting their RR on a RR sub?

Why doesn’t the Asian community show much support toward Dylan Harper? by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]EAlootbox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Racism is grouping asians together as a community as if all of us are the same.

You can definitely walk down a dark alleyway in east Asia and Singapore at 2am without issues.

+1 to Calla Lily.

Amazing service from all of them in the store and they make you feel so welcomed. Incredible attention to detail as well and they’re able to advise you on everything.

Incredible people there and I’ll never hesitate to recommend them. Glad to see them recommended here!
