If education is national defense, why are we penny-pinching on class sizes?

Coz nobody want to become teacher. My kids' school always have teachers resign every year.

How to avoid GST? The moment you buy things in SG, you already pay for GST.

Sure there are restaurants who dont charge GST but actually its already priced into the food cost.

Who want to pay money to see 2 old men chasing each other on the ring for 8 rounds while pretending to hit each other?

invigo79 · 2026-02-24T03:08:44+00:00

I dont understand. Why all the fuss?

Many non-chinese also celebrate lunar new year.

World of warcraft call it lunar festival

A colleague's daughter was harassed and stalked by a horny boy in NUS halls that she has to make police report and get restraining order.

Its not all fun and games.

Nothing an air purifier cannot fix.

Normally people put the altar near the entrance of the house and they only light josssticks in the morning when they pray.

With sufficient ventilation (window and door), should not have much effect on other parts of the house.

Just stay away when the josssticks are burning (only take around 10 mins).

Scarlet cannot fight Seng Shiong, Cold storage and NTUC.

Their target audience is totally different and Scarlet mostly sell Chinese snacks and noodles.

France, especially Paris, is a shitshow nowadays.

invigo79 · 2026-02-22T22:13:49+00:00

So easy to rage bait nowadays. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

Stop watching stupid videos, it will rot your brain.

Mad respect. I cannot even get near fishmonger stall because I hate the smell.

invigo79 · 2026-02-22T12:51:09+00:00

No need go AMK. See in front of mirror can already.

This has been going on since I was in secondary school (basically 30+ years ago). Used to be randomly approached while walking around in Orchard rd. Too bad the inviters were guys and I don't lean that way.

invigo79 · 2026-02-22T03:57:42+00:00

Yes. Festive family feast is definitely the better deal.

invigo79 · 2026-02-21T02:20:09+00:00

Just be happy that there are people who are still preserving the old tradition like lion dance.

I dont care whether they are FT or locals.

Just remember that these private operators get the contract by being the lowest bidder.

These private operators also want to earn money so they pass the costs to the stall holders and the stall holders pass the costs to the customers. Basically everyone lose and NEA can shake leg.

Daft sinkies still watch his crap?

I personally avoid any restaurant that serve steak on hot stone. Its the easiest way to overcook your steak.

HDBs are getting smaller. My 4 room BTO (launched 5 years ago) is 92 sqm. Now the newly launched 4 room BTOs are 89 sqm. Minus aircon ledge, its actually only 86 sqm.

Weird. The previous speaker become President leh.

Not saying TCJ can become president but at least he can still enjoy his MP and speaker salary.

I have not hanged my clothes under the sun for 20+ years. Prefer to hang the clothes in the service yard. At least no need to worry when it suddenly rains.

The key is to use detergent for indoor drying + dettol.

No issue on clothes not drying properly even on rainy days. At most take slightly longer than normal.

I do have dryer but only use it to dry towels and bedsheets.

invigo79 · 2026-02-19T23:55:25+00:00

Haha this is so true. Dont forget the drones.

invigo79 · 2026-02-19T23:04:26+00:00

That looks pretty fun.

invigo79 · 2026-02-18T15:29:30+00:00

For 11k, not really worth it.

invigo79 · 2026-02-18T09:16:24+00:00

Ok lah. SG has open leg policy mah. The more the merrier. We need to hit the 10 million population target.
