The Lighter Side of...Women

I am sure many people have seen the following pictures/graphics before. Being one of many others who has one leg stuck in hell and the other leg in heaven, I couldn't agree more with the explanations written about our beloved X-chromosome partner. Anyway, just for laugh ok. Hell hath no fury like a women crossed!

Ladies, PLEASE do not release your fury upon me after viewing it. (Even though you HAVE to agree, it is true in some sense!)


If only we guys have this data sheet during chemist/physics lessons, things would have been different. Ha ha.


I do not even try to argue anymore these days. Just as Singaporeans are fond of complaining about the government without any counter-action taken on their part, I am also adapting this method cos it is more peaceful this way.


EXTREMELY TRUE as mentioned in my earlier post HERE. They could either spend out of their intended budget or don't spend a single cent. The time taken however would be the same though.


I feel in fact that there should be more knobs and buttons control like [Semi-On] or [Awfully quiet until it makes you feel guilty] in a woman’s system than what is being shown here.


Who ever came up with this formula is a geniuis!

Time For A Change

If nothing that I set out to accomplish really turned out the way I expected, perhaps it is time I do the opposite.

Having figured that out, my next course of actions in the near future would be to:

1) Stop being kind and polite to unpleasant people.

2) Stop giving way to vehicles trying to change or cut into my lane.

3) Stop doing favors when people ask or beg me for it.

4) Stop feeding stray animals in coffee shops or any other places even when they glare at me with those sweet, innocent, irresistible cutie eyes.

5) Stop queuing in line for my turn during purchasing and making enquires.

6) Stop apologizing when bumping into sickening people even though it was THEM who didn’t pay any attention to where they’re going in the first place cos they’re so busy talking on their cell phone and their friends next to them to bother noticing where they’re heading.

7) Stop going along with “The flow” of friends/ colleagues/family/love ones and insist on what
I want and my methods of doing things cos in the end...I WAS RIGHT and they ended up doing it MY WAY ultimately!

8) Stop withholding everything in my heart trying to be Mr nice guy and voice out my dissatisfactions even if it meant unsightly and troublesome confrontations. I was never afraid in the first place so why am I acting so nice? Nice stands for weak!

9)
Stop bothering about what offensive people think/speak/feel behind my back as long as my consciences are clear!

10) Stop letting anger rule over me and do something about it when bitten on cos those repulsive idiots are laughing to themselves while wrath is consuming me inside as I am trying to be Mr nice guy!

Worth a shot, don't you think? If everything I planned, calculated, behaved, reacted, take action on is wrong and didn’t get me what I desired, then doing the complete opposite of what I have been doing MUST be right!

Just For Laugh II

Perhaps you folks have heard of this joke before via forward mailing. I love it so much due to the accuracy it somewhat portraits in the story in relation to real life situation that I went on to save it. I could not remember who sent it and where it originates. That was about a year ago. Somehow, I cannot recall which folder I place it in and totally forgotten about its existence. Now a year later while I am cleaning up my hard disk and clearing unnecessary files, imagine my surprise when I re-discover it unexpectedly.

I decided to post it in case I forgot cos it is an uplifting inspiration to me, as I tend to encounter many people of such characters. Sigh...what does that says about the attitude of people nowadays.

A big city New York lawyer went duck hunting in rural West Virginia. He shot and dropped a bird, but it fell into a farmer's field on the other side of a fence. As the lawyer climbed over the fence, an elderly farmer drove up on his tractor and asked him what he was doing.
The litigator responded, "I shot a duck and it fell in this field, and now I'm going in to retrieve it."
The old farmer replied. "This is my property, and you are not coming over here."
The indignant lawyer said, "I am one of the best trial Attorneys inthe U.S. and, if you don't let me get that duck, I'll sue you and take everything you own."
The old farmer smiled and said, "Apparently, you don't know how we do things in West Virginia. We settle small disagreements like this with The West Virginia Three Kick Rule."
The lawyer asked, "What is the West Virginia Three Kick Rule?"
The farmer replied. “Well, first I kick you three times and then you kick me three times, and so on, back and forth, until someone gives up."
The attorney quickly thought about the proposed contest and decided that he could easily take the old codger. He agreed to abide by the local custom. The old farmer slowly climbed down from the tractor and walked up to the city feller. His first kick planted the toe of his heavy work boot into the lawyer's groin and dropped him to his knees. His second kick nearly ripped the man's nose off his face. The barrister was flat on his belly when the farmer's third kick to a kidney nearly caused him to give up.
The lawyer summoned every bit of his will and managed to get to his feet and said, "Okay, you old coot now it's my turn."
(I love this part......)
The old farmer smiled and said, "Nah... I give up. You can have the duck"


MORAL OF THE STORY IS :
DON'T BE ARROGANT AND THINK NOBODY IS SMARTER THAN YOU.

Jay Walking

Singapore is a very fast pace society with its citizens living very hectic lifestyles. You see people rushing here and there on the streets, on the road, for free gifts, during sales, going to work and coming back from work. Sometimes people rush for the sake of rushing.

One good example is the showcase of attitudes and behaviors of people around pedestrian crossings. Most of them do not wait for the green man to come on. The normal teaching of “Look left, look right, look left again and cross when the green light is on” do not apply to them. The updated and modern version is “Look left, look right, look left again and cross when there’s no on-coming traffic regardless of whatever light is flashing.” There is another postmodern cosmopolitan version which is even simpler, cut to the chase and is gaining a lot of popularities among youngsters and some old folks. "Don't look. Just su-ga su-ga (Meaning anyhow you like) proceed and let the vehicles E-brake and wait for you to cross." A few minutes or seconds spend waiting for the Go Signal and ensuring their safety is just pure torture. Time is too precious and valuable to be wasted standing there staring at the three different light signals like an idiot. Must...cross...now...

The only way to explain this phenomenon happening in Singapore and around the whole globe is perhaps due to the invention and introduction of a scheme call…Insurance. We have such great coverages and benefits that we no longer have to worry in the event of being knocked down by vehicles, there is nothing good in for us. Now being kiasu Singaporeans, what is the use of paying so much for your insurance package if you do not get the chance to claim and use your benefits right? Most people nowadays are so over insured with so many insurances packages from different insurance companies, that it actually makes sense to get yourself involved in fatal incident. What can you say to that?!

Time Management

There are many ways to fight DEPRESSION. The one that works for me is keeping myself busy. FUCKING BUSY!! I cannot afford to have spare time except for rejuvenating my tired soul else my mind will start to wander off and be inflated with disillusion. Too much gloomy sentiment can really be detrimental. Couple of my friends been asking why I have not been updating my blog. Actually, a lot of interesting stuff happened recently but found myself without any spare time to blog about it. In my case, that is a good sign.

I used to spend a lot of my time trying to complete trivial dealings instead of focusing on the important ones which resulted in me “Last minute hugging the Buddha leg” (As the phrase goes) very often. Time management is very important. It is a virtue I hope to acquire as part of my character. So now, I am prioritizing the urgent matters to be settled first before completing the non-urgent proceedings. At least now, there is a sense of satisfaction if I managed to accomplish my routines while sticking to my pre-arranged schedule.

The bad side is, the missy been complaining that I have been neglecting her and not paying enough attention. If it is not one thing, it is another. Do guys ever get to be in a win-win situation? Sigh...
