magnum opus

i need an outlet. i need an outlet for all my frustrations. WHY ARE SOME SINGAPOREANS SO SELF-CENTRED AND INSENSITIVE?! i cant stand reading Yahoo! Fit to Post (FTP) articles littered (yes, LITTERED) with awful comments, where singaporeans just shoot of their fingers. they just express whatever shit that pops into their minds. oh wait. maybe they are mindless, brainless, so shit just flows out of their fingers/mouths.

a mr soh was unfortunately struck by lightning at the tanah merah country club some time ago. this piece of news was on yahoo ftp. and of course, a yahoo ftp wouldnt be one without some mindless comments. they wont even let a dead man rest in peace. just like the orchard road flood a month back, the first thing netizens would like to do upon hearing such news, is to blame the authorities. blame the government, the different agencies, the management. you can learn a whole load of profanities from those comments too.

if i ever meet any of them, i'd like to ask them this: so if you're in any of these regulatory bodies, singapore will be THE perfect country? floodless, accident-free? come on man. in this day and age, you should have already learnt to expect any kind of freak accidents and weather. what is there to complain about? do you want the government to be ready for a mega tsunami? you'd better, because recent news has proven that anything can happen. but then, are you prepared to pay more tax? if you're not, then shut up. SHUT UP. if you have better ideas of how to stop anything horrible from happening, then come out and contest the ruling party. stop hiding behind your computer screen.

politicians are humans too alright. they are not some deities that can predict exactly what can happen in singapore. i dont see those people appreciating the efforts of our leaders AT ALL. if you're so unhappy with them, then i'd like to see you try overthrow them with your super talents.

i cant imagine these people staying in places like china / japan / hong kong etc.

"how come the authorities didnt do anything to stop the floods?"
"how come they didnt try to prevent the typhoon from wrecking our houses?"
"how can they let the earthquake happen?"

sometimes, i actually feel ashamed for them. i know they definitely dont.
