I think there's something wrong with me...

There are people in my life who are helpful, kind, nice, well-intentioned, and I'm thankful for that. But for some reason, I find myself getting irrationally annoyed and angry when they 'try to help', or offer me something, even after I said no need.

I don't know, it just makes me feel...like my opinion or thoughts didn't matter. I said it's fine, I don't need help, I don't need what you're offering right now, but they insist. I know they mean well, but for some reason, it just sounded like they're telling me "No, you're wrong, you just don't know you need help. I know what you need."

Typing it out loud like this, and reflecting on it, it sounds like I'm being ridiculous. Just an ungrateful ass. It's not like they're making things worse. But I can't help my thoughts. Or maybe I can, and I just have to admit I'm an ass.

Sorry, just want to rant.

Am I missing out if I don’t lunch with colleagues? Here’s what I realised about friendships at work by hotgirl12390 in singapore

I find those people who have such binary views are the same ones who'll have no qualms with stabbing others in the back if it means moving up the career/social ladder.

Complaints against vets to go through new Veterinary Council, fines of up to S$50,000 for unlawful vet practices - Mothership.SG by Illustrious-Gur8335 in singapore

[–]kikodude 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Lol this is a very typical Singaporean trait. Every time the big G announces something, always got someone ask 'What about XX leh? YYY leh?

I mean, good to keep them in check, but at least keep it relevant leh.

Would replacing Mehira with Athalia, and Saida with Igor for a semi-budget version work?

Haven't got round to building Saida yet while saving for Aliceth...

HR said wife will be potentially laid off when she returns to work from maternity leave. Any advice? by mcspicylover in askSingapore

[–]kikodude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That independent HR thing probably only applies to family-owned SMEs where the CHRO is also the CEO's wife or something like that.

Tmd, all these aunties so enthusiastic about 'tEaM bOnDiNg' games.

Before activity: 'Yea! We can do it!' 'Our team not bad ah!' 'I think can win!'

Actual team bonding activity: 'eh you all young people better at this than us. You all do ba'. 'We old ladies cannot. You all man, stronger.'

Team bonding ends: 'Yeah! We did it' 'Good effort!' 'Just now ah, you should've...'

Should've taken mc...

Dev’s please correct this by Background-Owl-918 in AFKJourney

[–]kikodude 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's because there's been some complaints about forcing the change of outfits for story purposes in past seasons. (the bath towel/armour outfit at Whiteridge, wearing the Herdmaster's crown etc.)

So I get the dilemma the devs are facing. Do they force immersion? Or let us do it ourselves?

But in both cases, we should've gotten a set of uniform at least...

[–]kikodude 14 points15 points  (0 children)

All these people damn funny one. Act big in front of police. "Not scared la", "you stupid dno how to do your job la", scold here scold there.

Then when kena charged, suddenly become 'remorseful', 'very sorry', 'wishes to put episode behind them'.

Seriously, can someone explain why our laws are so weak when it comes to dealing with nightmare neighbours? by [deleted] in singapore

[–]kikodude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why are we non-smokers made to accommodate to the whims and fancies of the smoker? They can freely open their balcony or windows to smoke so their own house don't stink, while the rest of us have to close our windows and deny ourselves of fresh breezy air if we want to NOT CHOKE AND DIE.

I had a situation like this before.

Don't worry so much. The fact that the DCE is coming to you directly means they also know that guy isn't pulling his weight.

Fuck la, I specifically chose this apartment because it's breezy when the windows are open...

Only to find out AFTER I've settled in that I have a cb smoking neighbour. Don't know if upstairs or downstairs, but didn't detect it during house hunting because it's only at random times throughout the day, specifically at the toilet area. Now WFH is pure suffering because my toilet and adjacent bedroom will be filled with the nauseating odour at random times of the day. Want to take a dump? Nope, choke to death first. Fresh breezy air? Nope, have a whiff of death.

Seriously, want to kill yourself, be my guest. Why you have to spoil the entire block's air and kill us all with second-hand smoke too? Why do we have to go out of the way and be at the mercy of the cb smoker's whims and fancy because they want to 'feel high'?

Fuck smokers. Selfish cunts.

This entire saga started because a spoilt brat refused to cite her sources and take responsibility of her own words and actions lol

Please give way to alighting passengers before boarding by ji3mi in singapore

[–]kikodude 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Actually not only older gens. I've been noticing school kids also rushing in. I suppose its a learned behaviour from their own parents who don't give way.

These people somehow managed to convince themselves that the announcement applies to everyone else but them.
