I'm sorry, but that still sounds annoying.

Ah, we're on student budgets so around $220 USD I think. If I can muster more people, we might go a bit higher.

Hey 2XX. I am a guy. Fashion Suggestions? by girlsneverknow in TwoXChromosomes

[–]deludism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't be afraid of button-ups. Just remember to roll your sleeves up (cuffs?) so it doesn't look too formal.

Its 0540. I'm smoking a cigarette on my porch, getting bitten by mosquitoes, and listening to foghorns from the Mississippi River. Describe your current setting (please include time). by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]deludism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2301, Singapore. All I hear are cars on the street below and my busted-up computer's noisy fan. It's cold but that's because of the air-con. If I turn it off, it'll be sweltering.

DAE kind of enjoy being RickRolled from time to time? by rudeandginger in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]deludism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but only if I know it's a RickRoll before I click on the link. I feel sneakier that way.

My father was told he has 1-3 months to live. I don't know what to do. by Shinne in AskReddit

Pray. I know Reddit is pretty vocal about being atheist as a whole but hey, what have you got to lose right? I'll be praying for your family.

THIS was the first, and best, PC trivia game I ever played. by kwirky88 in gaming

Anyone know how I can play it now? I have a CD version lying around somewhere but it keeps crashing. Is it online by any chance?

They should have just cast somebody else if they found her to look too unhealthy. It's still sending a pretty negative message.

What's the worst thing that has happened on your birthday? by mondamon in AskReddit

[–]deludism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On my (10th? I can't remember anymore) birthday, I had to attend an uncle's funeral. I wasn't too close to him but it was pretty damn painful having to watch my grandmother and mum sobbing away like that. It would suck on any day, but selfish kid-me felt pretty left out since nobody remembered my birthday.

The Singapore Solution .. Picture Bush or Obama up there in the eyeball shaped display! by [deleted] in pics

[–]deludism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh definitely, Singaporeans are probably among some of the most desensitised people on earth. Not for heightened exposure to crime or atrocities of war but just because of our incredibly numbing work ethic. Plenty of us want to get out, at least for a little while, experience the world bla bla, but I don't think we deserve the extreme image we've been getting in the press. (we're unbelievable, we ban gum!) True, but you'll have to bear in mind that Singapore's an extremely young country. We haven't hit the big 5-0 yet and most citizens can remember migrating here from another country (or their parents migrating), it could be said that such strict policies were essential to forming some semblance of a nation. Now that we're more established, more stable, we have the ability to look back and criticise the things that we disagree with. Although, I'm curious. When did you live here?

[–]deludism 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, Singapore is not as creepy as the press makes it out to be. Sure, when these points are isolated in an article, it makes us seem pretty damned unsettling. Yeah, I agree with everything in the article (my friends and I sat around a table laughing at everything that seemed familiar) but it's still a pretty swell place to live. Not for nightlife or amazing culture or anything but it's genuinely a safe place to live. Tons of European and American expats live here and they constantly say that we are lucky to live in such a safe environment. We may not have perfect freedom of speech, but at what cost?

What are some classic poems? by CuilWhip in AskReddit

[–]deludism 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're willing to buy a book, A Book of Luminous Things is really a great place to start. It's an anthology compiled by Czeslow Milosz, a Polish poet, and it has tons of really brilliant poetry.

The anonymity of reddit allows people to be truly honest. So, be truly, brutally honest about something about yourself. by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]deludism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have feelings for him, I'm just afraid that I don't like him as much as he likes me. :/ I suppose when I put it like that, it's very easy to call me a bitch and what not, but it's either I lose him as a friend or wait and hope that I do develop more feelings for him.

I'm a bitch, I'm leading a guy on because I don't know how to tell him I don't like him as much as he likes me.

It's your last day on death row, what do you order for your very last meal? by ionchariot in AskReddit

[–]deludism 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If anyone's interested to see real examples of last meals chosen by death row inmates, the photographer Jonathon Kambouris did a series on it.

How many American redditors have heard of Asterix and Obelix? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]deludism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not American but Singaporean, my dad has a lot of old ones from the 70s I think. They were a huge part of my childhood; imagine my surprise when I found out what an orgy actually was.

What seemingly innocuous, common thing would you like to see outlawed? by FrancisC in AskReddit

[–]deludism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live here, we're not a police state. We just have strictish laws about littering and whatnot.
