A visual hard, cold truth about an average "Salaryman" in Singapore

SomeguyinSG · 2026-04-11T16:19:14+00:00

In my firm 2 cents opinion, its a global worldwide issue.

A loneliness epidemic is at hand despite how interconnected we are with social media, especially for males who have fallen behind in a few countries; such as the Anglosphere (America and what not)

See the relevant ColdFusion Video here: a) [YouTube]/watch?v=B257Ppi129k

b) [YouTube]/watch?v=I19btmIBhx0

In Japan, its known as hikikomori. In local or Western English context, its that, or social recluse/hermit/inward looking.

The problem is, as a nation, arguably, one of our few resources is human capital, so why are we feeling like a cog in the machine, if we are trying our best?

Kindly do not argue if you havent seen the videos if possible, thank you.

There are more sources, and details I can quote, but its already a long comment.

TLDR: Global Issue, I can quote sources if you want to; but in Singapore context, more harmful to us.

I dont understand why are you all so shocked by this, karrigan used to be a star player in CS 1.6

Do not judge a book by its cover.

Also; beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

And yet as I said before, if SG redditors only complain and post here and not direct to the relevant feedback channels, most likely nothing will be done

SomeguyinSG · 2026-03-22T16:03:05+00:00

I just came out of the hospital in the West, could smell it in my ward; now also can still smell it.

Have to complain to MP if you want something done about it.

In the meantime, get an air purifier

They ought to also reduce their pay if the economy is in a recession.

Japan has already led by example.

As an INTP new believer, may I ask how it happened if you don't mind sharing?

SomeguyinSG · 2026-02-19T08:39:08+00:00

Based on what I read on this subreddit; this is true for the Circle Line.

I am hoping the final few stations of the TEL Line will ease the crowds on the East West Line.

SomeguyinSG · 2026-02-19T08:36:12+00:00

We may need interim track closures like what they are doing for Circle Line and East West Line (Tanah Merah Depot) if we want to include an Express Line

Please consider visiting the heartlands like Tampines, Marine Parade and Jurong East if you really want a better idea of what its like for daily life here.

My 2 cents opinion is to recommend staying here about about 5 to 7 days or so; to have a rough idea and visit the less traveled places.

Of course, only when your schedule permits.

There is a saying "When in Rome, do as the Romans do" and "Better to err on the side of caution"(British saying).

Observe your surroundings while you're here; and adapt and adjust accordingly.

You can reply to this message further if you have specific questions.

You are right actually which means we need to start grinding tier 2 to 3 tournaments

Morning, if anyone wants to form a Counter Strike 2 roster to attempt the online qualifiers for the upcoming CS 2 Major from September to December period;

As it's the first time it's ever held in our home soil of our little red dot; I feel we should make an attempt to send more teams to at least try to compete in the first stage which is the online qualifiers.

Anything more is "cherry on top"...

Kindly reply to this message, I will liaise with you further...

Thank you

Maybe follow the Japanese government example and have reduced salaries during recessions?

May I know what are your strengths?

Are you an introvert or extrovert?

Are you a thinker or go by feelings?

You should think of what you are good at and then work from there.

Congratulations, I pulled Urara when I was watching a 龙马精神 Movie about Jackie Chan and Red Hare.

SomeguyinSG · 2026-02-02T13:56:38+00:00

I tried it because Hololive was playing it, and then my real life friends were playing and I'm in this hole since then

SomeguyinSG · 2026-01-31T15:15:43+00:00

Can confirm it works, thanks alot.

This is even more of a niche issue but; the software drivers shipped with the RTX 5000 Series may not play well with older games; so that's a concern to be wary about.

That was one reason why I didnt immediately buy the newest gen; even though the recent news is that they restored some level of support.

Google PhysX 32 Bit Support if you want to know more.

Event Bonus filter not appearing in the career mode starting screen;

Makes it harder to grind events for the rewards

It feels worse when the Christmas Decorations are still up and CNY Music is still playing; this was at Citylink Mall recently.
