0

Facebook user Quan Sim shared how he ordered pizzas from Pizza Hut to celebrate National Day this year with his guests.

However, his order arrived with 3 items missing, and he tried calling them for 3 days (from 9 to 11 August) but to no avail.

He said that his guests were equally puzzled as to why Pizza Hut was “so busy”, and that they kept calling but all they heard was the hold music.

He finally reached them on the 12 August and the customer service officer told him that they will get the branch manager to reach out to them.

However, they never did and he is still waiting, about 4.5 days after his order arrived with missing items.

Here is what he said

CAR JUST BOUGHT FOR 10 DAYS BURST INTO FLAMES @ OLD AIRPORT ROAD FOOD CENTRE

0

A car caught fire near Old Airport Road Food Centre on Friday and the vehicle was seen raging as nearby people surrounded and watch the incident.

A video of a car burning was posted on Facebook, The car burned with thick smoke and authorities were on the scene.

When the police car arrived, a police officer rushed to put out the fire with a fire extinguisher. At least 2 SCDF vehicles were on the scene.

The netizen who posted the video said:

I have read and watched newsreels of vehicles that caught fire in the past but have never seen a live burning car event personally until this afternoon!

Was at the Old Airport Road HC having late lunch n kopi with my buddy n suddenly saw a young man frantically looking for a fire extinguisher!

A few others helped him to break the glass seal n accessed the fire extinguisher.

He took 3 in total coming in n out of the hawkers centre.

I initially didn’t want to watch n video the unfolding drama but did later since a few people r already helping.

The young man that helped is actually a good samaritan n, not the car owner! Most valour of him to step up n help.

With the help of two other persons, they actually pulled the fire hose fr the HC Fire Hydrant cabinet n tried to dose the fire. Unfortunately, the hose is not long enough for the water to reach the car in the open carpark slot.

In the meantime, 2 fire engines arrived n put the fire out quickly.

The burned car owner came to the scene accompanied by a few SPF officers later. Must n wondering what hit him.

Everyone is asking how can a stationary car catch fire just like that.

Apparently, a search on Google revealed an average of 208 car fire cases in Singapore! Some after an accident n some when stationary or during a drive!

Well, glad no one was injured in this weird incident. A bit of drama on a quiet TGIF?

Wonder if our High Way Code now teaches us what to do when one’s car caught fire?

2nd Hand car just bought for 10 days

According to Shin Min Daily News, the incident took place at around 3.15 PM.

The owner of the car told Shin Min Reporters that he has no idea how his stationary car caught fire and he felt helpless as he just bought the car about 10 days ago at a price of $70,000.

MAN SLEPT WITH 250 PROSTITUTES, CAN NEVER TELL HIS WIFE THIS SECRET

0

Typical start to the story. Fat and ugly child from a rather strict family, never interacted with girls, didn’t have the best time in school and used food to deal with the hurt.

Get to university and still fat, ugly and alone. Decided I might as well pop the v-card at least, pay to see a prostitute and 10 minutes of jack-rabbiting and a broken condom later, still fat though.

But suddenly I want more, though it was short lived I enjoyed it and want to experience it again. Why spend time improving myself though, gaining confidence from talking to women and paying for dates when I can cut out the middleman and just pay a prostitute, why not?

6 years later and I’ve slept with at least 250 women, at one point I was seeing at least 2 or 3 a week, one at a nearby massage parlor and then whoever was available.

Of those 250ish I’d say at least half were without a condom (hated the feel of them and the normal ones were a bit too tight) and I always finished inside. I’d get tested every 3 months and it still amazes me that I never caught anything.

After about 6 years I had a regular that I’d usually see once a week, we’d always over-run our time and chat away afterwards.

She’d describe the house and business she was building back home, how she sends most of her money back to her family and that her plan was to only do this work for another year or so before going back home permanently.

She’d always ask why a nice guy like me didn’t have a girlfriend, I’d point to my belly and we’d laugh. Perhaps it was out of pity, but we began to hang out and she’d never ask for payment. We’d go back to her home and just hang, play games and have a drink.

I began to develop feelings perhaps, or realized that what I wanted wasn’t intercourse necessarily but a relationship. We talked about it and I decided to stop seeing her, I cancelled all my accounts and decided to work on myself.

8 years later and I’ve lost all the weight, become somewhat attractive and got married to a woman I met at a bookshop. We talked about past relationships and I told her I’d only ever been with 2 women. I’ve opened my heart to her and she knows all my secrets, but this is something I’ll take to my grave.

I always did the full-screen tests and before we started dating we both got tested for her peace of mind, nothing has ever appeared. I always used a fake name, a burner phone and I look significantly different now.

What prompted me to make this post is that I decided to look up the regular girl I used to see, not out of a need to cheat but curiosity. She’s still working sadly and I decided not to reach out. With this though, at least my secret is out.

STARHUB CUSTOMER PAID EXTRA $11/MTH FOR “SMART SUPPORT” BUT NOT REFLECTED IN BILL

0

Dear StarHub. When I bought my Samsung S22 Ultra from you in Feb 2022, I included SmartSupport (SS). I have been paying additional $11+ every month for SS.

Yesterday (13 Aug), I contacted Starhub SmartSupport at about 11.40am as I am having issues with my phone and your staff Kogilah attended to it.

I was later alerted that my subscription for SS is not reflected in the system. I checked my latest bill and I sent a screenshot of it to your staff to show that I have been paying $11+ monthly for SS.

I was initially told that they would get back to me within 48 hours to verify my SS subscription.

But I told your staff that this is an urgent case for me (I need to use my phone) and I had even shared my latest bill to show my SS subscription.

Later, your staff assured me that they would get back to me within 24 hours.

I am shocked and disappointed. I have been paying additional $11+ since I bought my phone from Starhub with 2-year contract in February this year.

Why is my SS subscription not reflected in your system? When can your staff attend to get my phone fixed or even exchanged?

Netizens’ comments

Smart support is 3rd party boss, any issue with them starhub also cannot do anything

NETIZEN FINDS IT HARD TO TRUST INSURANCE AGENTS, SAYS THEY ONLY WANT YOUR MONEY

0

I’m honestly quite repulsed by the fact that some of my friends are working as insurance agents, especially because sometimes it does feel like they’re hinting me to get an insurance plan when I’m already covered.

Maybe I’m super biased but I really find it difficult to trust someone who makes money by ripping off others. I wna hear from yall. How would you react if a friend comes up to you encouraging you to buy insurance?

Netizens’ comments

  • Seriously, if they’ve never texted me for years, and suddenly sends a very friendly hello, I just ignore it… if I start a conversation, it may get awkward.
  • Those that I’ve met mostly are. I don’t mind if the insurance agents approach me just to try their luck, but if they don’t respect no means no, then that’s scummy behaviour. The worst ones are the insurance agents who come on extra hard after they find out someone in my family got a new job, male relatives start NS etc
  • General consensus is that most insurance agents in singapore will try to sell you some investment product that sucks so that they can get Commissions.
    If you DIY invest in the market by yourself , your returns will be higher.
    I honestly dk anything about insurance so I will try to do my research on my own first. ( Im a young dude )
    If its an investment plan I will laugh since my current Portfolio returns are higher than what they can offer either ways.
  • Im quite blunt about the fact I think they are grifters. When they pull out the “I’m just trying to help people manage their money” card – I pretty much tell them to their face they know nothing about financial management.

NIGHTCLUBS @ ORCHARD TOWERS TO CLOSE DOWN IN 2023, NO RENEWAL OF LICENSES DUE TO “CONCERNS”

0

The nightclubs and pubs at Orchard Towers are set to close down permanently in May 2023, with a total of 12 commercial units being told that their Public Entertainment Licenses will not be renewed, according to The Straits Times.

A spokesperson for the Singapore Police Force spoke to ST and said that the law and order situation at Orchard Tower has not improved over the years and remains a concern.

The police noted that there was a high volume of strong feedback from residents and developments nearby on the issues of public safety, vice activities and nuisance.

The operators who are affected by the latest move, said that they were surprised when they found out because many of them renewed their leases when Singapore “reopened” in 19 April earlier this year for nightlife establishments.

One operator told ST that the ban “penalises many landlords and operators unfairly”, and added that they were willing to work with the authorities to deal with the problems.

They also added that the vice activities were contributed by the beauty salons, rather than the nightclubs, where they don’t need to apply for a police license unless they are providing massage treatments or services.

ELDERLY MUM KEEPS SPENDING MONEY INSTEAD OF SAVING – “YOU HAVE TO ENJOY LIFE”

0

Mother keeps spending money rather than saving it.

So I live with my mom and we split the rent 50/50 sometimes I give her 2/3 of the rent because I want her to save up. But she doesn’t do that. She goes and buys unnecessary things. Like just yesterday I found out she went and spent 1200$

And when I ask her if she has savings she tells me:

“You have to enjoy life. And you can’t take any money when you’re dead”

And I ask her,

“how much money do you have for an emergency?

And she says:

“I have some but then I also don’t have because I gotta pay debt and bills”

Which is why I often pay most of the rent. I have a small emergency fund but I’m concerned for her not having any.

How can I help her?

Netizens’ comments

  • In my experience, you need to stop helping her financially. You pay your half of rent and that’s as much as you do for that. If you care for your mother, continue to teach and explain these things to her, but don’t enable bad habits.
  • You can’t. The only person who can change her is her.
    You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.
  • My mom’s like this too. She’s gone through bankruptcy twice and is still terrible with money. Sadly you can’t force people to change. I’ve had to distance myself from her a bit because I was enabling her by giving her money and then getting really upset when I’d see her blowing money on useless crap. The best thing you can do for her and yourself is to distance yourself and stop enabling her, but I know how hard it can be

WOMAN LIVES WITH BOTH HUSBAND AND EX-HUSBAND – “ONE IS BEST FRIEND, THE OTHER IS LOVER”

0

My crazy living arrangement

I (44f) live with my husband and my ex husband and I couldn’t be happier.

My ex husband and I divorced 12 years ago. We never stopped living together though. J (39m) is a good man, but we divorced after I had an affair.

About a year before the affair he told me he was was not attracted to any genders and had no desires to be in an intimate relationship with anyone.

I took that as permission and thought I had found my perfect mate. Long story short dude turned out to be the AH and walked after I found out I was pregnant.

J loves kids and has been dad to my 11 yr old daughter since she was born. We have not had any sort of a physical relationship since he came out to me.

4 years ago I ran into my school sweetheart and we began seeing each other again. W (48m) has Parkinson’s and is disabled.

We picked up right where we left off when I was 18. I never hid the relationship from J and he in fact encouraged us. We moved in together after a year.

We lived together for a year and then got married. We are approaching our 2nd anniversary. I have never been happier.

My ex-husband is my best friend and my husband is the love of my life. Everything is perfect but my family and friends from the past disagree with my choice and I feel completely alone most of the time.

I have J and W but no friends or family. It’s lonely and I often wonder if I made the right choice. J and W are best friends now and even go out and do things together just the 2 of them.

Meanwhile I rarely leave the house for fear of judgement.

19-year-old Ezra Jeet Singh, was charged in court on 13 August with public nuisance after allegedly intimidating him into saying that he is a coward inside the MRT.

The incident purportedly happened on board a train with other commuters, and the youth was seen approaching the elderly man, Mr Ismail Mohd Dawan.

The youth was seen calling him a coward as well, and he was also making derogatory comments about the man’s mother.

The Singapore Police Force said that they received a report about a man allegedly causing a commotion on board an MRT train carriage on 5 August at about 11.10pm.

The video, which was posted on Stomp, showed the YYP accusing the elderlyy man, who was sitting in a corner seat, of staring at him.

The former was seen in the video telling the latter to “tell them you’re a coward”, to which the elderly man then turns to the other commuters, raising his hand and saying “I am a coward.”

Police officers soon arrived at Bedok MRT station but the YP was already gone.

He was subsequently arrested by police officers from Bedok Police Division, who worked with officers from the Public Transport Security Command to identify the youth.
