There is a subset of Demotivational Posters called “Mindfuck,” which present an innocuous-looking image with the promise “When you see it, you’ll shit bricks.” Some of the images have weird, creepy shit that only appear when you look closely. Others, on the other hand, are just normal images and the mindfuck is that you spend five minutes looking at the damn thing in a vain attempt to find something out of the ordinary.

The newly unveiled measures to encourage Singaporeans to have more babies is about the best that the government can offer to help couple remove financial hesitations with regards to having babies. Of course, some people will say that more can be done and should be done but I think the government has offered a fairly generous and reasonable package of incentives and there really isn’t much left that can be done.
While money is no longer a big obstacle to having babies given the rather generous handouts, there are other concerns that I have which the government cannot possibly address, and I don’t expect the government to even try. It’s a personal battle that I have to fight together with my wife.
Unlike a few generations ago where the mentality towards having kids leans towards “have them first and worry about bringing them up later”, I think these days, particularly amo[...]

Question of the week (from nadnut):
Would You Rather?…
1) Be a man
OR
2) Be a woman
My Choice: Option 2 - Be a woman.
Because I can be irritating - and blame it on PMS after!
But, of course, this should only be used sparingly… and with the right target audience. heh.
Before I came back to (hot humid hot humid hot humid) SG we went
out for dinner one night with Ra, and we went to play arcade.
I was in a grumpy mode cos it was very very warm inside the arcade,
and I was simply too lazy to take off the coats and all.
Then we were looking at these Koreans at the kiap-kiap machines and
I wanted this BIG plush monkey so damn much.
It didn't help when I see the Koreans get the plushies one after
another, but when I tried I didn't get.
Being the bitch I am it always shows on my face when I'm very sian,
and I think I grumped at poor K that night. But it was ok liao lah
after we reached home.
My baby just called to say that HE GOT ME THE MONKEY THAT I HAD
WANTED.
HE KIAPED THE MONKEY FOR ME!!!
NOT CHEAP LEH! $5 PER TRY LEH! My mother say why waste so much
money hahaha buy outside sure cheaper hahaa.
Not the money ok!! The fact that he actua[...]
Mops just told me a baby miracle that my uncle told her that my
niece (his granddaughter) did.
One fine day they were in the car, when my toddler niece suddenly
spewed out four numbers.
It was surprising because she doesn't know her 1-2-3-4s yet (or so
I've heard lah).
Due to a death of a relative last week (one of my favourite old
people in my family), no one had the time to buy those
numbers.

All the four numbers came up in Toto.
O_O
Eh J**... you got wonderkid!

winner).
The term 'entrepreneur' connotes a certain kind of adventurism, dynamism, gungho, pathfinders, self reliance, risk taking etc etc. The Singaporean style entrepreneurs are slightly different. It is all about reliance, about relying on the govt.
Singaporeans want a gold medal at the Olympics. The govt knows the answer. Singaporeans want to venture overseas, the govt will take the lead. The govt is
