Never met any tailor like this one.

When it was finally ready, she freaking burnt my clothes. Asked her about it and she said it was normal as the clothes material is shiny and would be ok after wash.

MAN ALWAYS TRY TO ‘EAT’ HIS FRIENDS, DOESN’T KNOW THAT THEY ALREADY ‘MARK’ HIM

0

It is no surprise that friends can sometimes be taken advantage of.

We have all experienced it, whether we are the one taking advantage of someone or the one feeling taken advantage of. It can be a tricky situation and often, it is not easy to tell who is taking advantage of whom.

I have a friend who always tries to take advantage of our friendship and it is something that I have come to accept.

He always thinks he is being smart by taking advantage of our friendship and he always seems to think that he is more clever and cunning than everyone else.

At first, I was quite taken aback by his behavior. He would always try to get me to do things for him or do favors for him without offering anything in return.

He would also try to get me to buy him things or give him money without ever offering to pay me back. I quickly realized that he was taking advantage of our friendship and I decided to let him know that I was not happy about it.

However, even after I spoke to him about it, he continued to take advantage of me and our friendship. He still managed to get me to do things for him and still expected me to buy him things and give him money without ever offering to repay me.

He always thought he was smarter than everyone else and that he could get away with taking advantage of our friendship.

I soon realized that all of my other friends had already figured out that he was taking advantage of our friendship and they had already become wary of him.

They would often be careful around him, not wanting to do anything that he could take advantage of.

This made me feel a little better, knowing that my friends were already aware of his behavior and were taking steps to protect themselves. I also realized that I needed to take steps to protect myself from him.

I started by setting boundaries with him. I made it clear that I was not willing to do something for him without expecting something in return.

I also made sure to be careful when it came to giving him money or buying him things. I made it clear that I expected to be paid back and that I was not willing to just give him things without expecting anything in return.

By setting these boundaries, I was able to protect myself from his attempts to take advantage of our friendship.

It also made me realize that I was not the only one who was aware of his behavior and that all of my friends were already wary of him.

My friend still tries to take advantage of our friendship, but I have become much more aware of it and I know how to protect myself from it.

I also know that all of my friends are already aware of his behavior and are taking steps to protect themselves from it.

MAN BUYS THICK GOLD CHAIN TO SHOW ‘BENG’ FRIENDS HE ‘SAT KI’

0

I had always been the kind of guy to fly under the radar. I was content with my life and the way it was, but then something changed.

I wanted to be somebody, somebody important. I wanted to be seen, and I wanted to be envied. So, I decided to make a move.

I had been saving up for a while and finally, I had enough money to buy a gold chain. Not just any gold chain, but a thick, gold chain that I had seen at a jewelry store.

It cost me $15,000 and I knew that it was a statement piece and I was ready to make a statement.

I had some ‘beng’ friends that I would hang out with every now and then, and I thought that showing them my new chain would be the perfect way to show them how big of a deal I was.

I was sure that they would be impressed.

So one day, I got all dressed up, put on my new gold chain, and went to meet my friends. When they saw me, they were definitely impressed.

They had never seen me looking so flashy and ‘beng’ before. I could tell they were feeling a little bit intimidated, and that was exactly the reaction I was hoping for.

We went out to a club that night and I had the time of my life. Everywhere I went, people were looking at me with admiration and respect especially all the ‘xiao bengs’.

I felt like a king, and I wanted to show everyone how big of a deal I was. I made sure to show off my gold chain every chance I got. It was like I was wearing a badge of honor.

As the night went on, I noticed that the people around me were starting to treat me differently. People were talking to me like I had some kind of power or influence.

I felt like I was part of something bigger than myself, and it was a really cool feeling.

As the weeks went by, I noticed that I was getting more attention, and people were starting to recognize me. Everywhere I went, people knew who I was and what I represented.

It was something I had never experienced before, and I was loving it.

The gold chain had really become a symbol of my status and power. I had gone from nobody to somebody, and it was all thanks to my thick gold chain.

I was now a big deal, and I was loving every minute of it.

On 28 December 2022, the High Court sentenced Mr Soh Chee Wen (also known as John Soh), and Ms Quah Su-Ling to a total of 36 and 20 years’ imprisonment respectively for, among other things, orchestrating an elaborate scheme to manipulate the shares of Blumont Group Ltd, Asiasons Capital Ltd and LionGold Corp Ltd between August 2012 and October 2013, and cheating two financial institutions.

The High Court found the duo guilty of charges of market manipulation and price manipulation, engaging in deceptive practices against financial institutions, and cheating two financial institutions. In addition, Mr Soh was found guilty of witness tampering charges, and charges for being concerned in the management of the three companies whilst being an undischarged bankrupt.

Mr Soh and Ms Quah each indicated that they will be filing a notice of appeal against conviction and the sentences imposed, save that Mr Soh will not be appealing against the conviction for the charges under Section 148 of the Companies Act.

Chief Prosecutor, Mr Tan Kiat Pheng, said “The Prosecution is committed to act against offenders who engage in market manipulation and other offences that harm the investing public and financial market participants, and we will not tolerate any attempts to subvert our criminal justice system. We will continue to work closely with our law enforcement agencies and regulator to safeguard Singapore’s reputation as an international financial centre.”

Director of the Commercial Affairs Department (CAD), Mr David Chew, said, “We take a serious view of criminals who manipulate the stock market, as their conduct undermines the integrity of Singapore’s capital markets. In order to protect the integrity of our capital markets, the authorities will vigorously pursue and prosecute criminals who manipulate or conspire with others to manipulate our capital markets.”

Assistant Managing Director, Policy Payments and Financial Crime, Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), Ms Loo Siew Yee, said, “The elaborate scheme master-minded by the offenders to manipulate shares listed on SGX led to large losses by investors and harmed public confidence in the integrity of Singapore’s capital markets. The successful prosecution and stiff sentences leave no doubt as to the authorities’ resolve in acting against such misconduct. MAS will continue to work in partnership with AGC, CAD and the industry to effectively detect, deter and prosecute bad actors, with the objective of ensuring that our capital markets remain fair, orderly and transparent.”

GIRL’S ‘CAT’ STARTS TO BURN BECAUSE BF EAT MALA & LICK THE ‘CAT’

0

I was with my boyfriend the other night, and we decided to have some mala for dinner. I love mala, and he knew that, so it was a great surprise.

We were having a great time, and then he decided to do something I wasn’t expecting. He started to lick my ‘cat’ after eating the mala!

At first, I was really into it. The way he was licking me felt really good, and I was really enjoying it. But then, my ‘cat’ started to burn. It was a burning sensation that I had never felt before.

It felt like my ‘cat’ was on fire! I was so scared that I stopped him immediately and asked him what he was doing.

The oil from the food and mala spices were still very present in my bf’s saliva and which made my ‘cat’ felt this way.

The pain and burning sensation felt so intense that I had to rush to the toilet to take the bidet to spray my ‘cat’ for a few minutes straight with water.

I even had to use ice to ice the surroundings for quite a while before my ‘cat’ started to feel better.

In the end, I was not in the mood for any more activities involving my ‘cat’ and now whenever I taste Mala, I will always remember that numbing burning sensation which I felt on my ‘cat’.

I guess I won’t be having Mala anytime soon!

BF CALCULATIVE WITH GF OVER MEAL BUT ALWAYS ‘HAO LIAN’ HE PAYS FOR EVERYTHING

0

My ex-boyfriend and I have been together for a few years prior to our break up and I’ve noticed something strange about our relationship.

Whenever we go out to eat, he always asks me for money back afterwards. It started off as a joke, but it became a regular occurrence in our few years together.

Every time we go out, we’ll order our meals and then he will always ask me for money afterwards.

It got to the point where he would be calculative over who pays more times for our meals and whenever he thinks that I should pay, he would totally not bring his wallet out.

At first, I thought it was just a funny way of him being playful and I didn’t think too much of it. But then I noticed that every time we go out, he’s always asking me for money back for our meals.

I started to think that it was weird that he never offered to pay for our meals fully or offer to split the bill.

It is not as if he always pays for everything all the time, there were times where I paid the whole bill for our meals and he just take it as its a given that I should do it.

Furthermore, at that period of time, I was still schooling while he had just finally decided to start working.

On top of that, I’ve noticed that whenever we’re out with friends, he always tells them that he pays for our meals and everything.

He’ll tell them that he always takes care of the bill for our meals and that he always pays for everything. But I know that’s not true because I’ve been there and I’ve seen him ask me for money back.

I’ve tried to talk to him about it but he just brushes it off and changes the subject. I think he’s embarrassed to admit that he’s asking me for money back and doesn’t want anyone to know.

I don’t want to make a big deal out of it, but it does bother me that he’s not being honest about it.

I’ve been trying to figure out why was he doing this during the relationship. Is it because he’s really broke and can’t afford to pay for our meals and everything? Is it because he’s just too proud to admit that he can’t pay for everything?

No matter what the reason is, I felt that it’s still not right for him to be asking me for money back and then lying to our friends about it.

Even after our relationship ended, he has been trying to boast to people about how much he ‘spent’ on me on meals and everything else and how much he sacrificed for me when he knows that it is all nothing but lies.

Maybe he still cannot get over our previous relationship and wants people to think badly of me and think highly of him.

But no matter what it is, paper cannot cover fire and a lie will always be exposed one day and I am so glad that I had chosen to end our relationship back then.

WAITER SERVED FOOD TO WRONG DINER, WHO COUGHED ON IT BEFORE SERVING IT TO RIGHT TABLE

0

Are restaurants allowed to serve you the food they served wrongly to another diner?

As per title, what do you when you spot a server placing your order on another table by mistake? Would you reject the food?

Occurred to me… server served the food to another table. Diner was coughing. Diner informed server that they didnt order this food while still coughing. Server checked order chit and served the food to my table.

What would you guys have done?

Netizens’ comments

  • Reject it. Tell them to make it again.
  • I would ask if I can cancel the dish and explain why. No need to replenish the same dish that might get a detour.
  • I would have sent it back. If it was a couple of seconds and relatively untouched then sure no problem. But if another person was coughing over it then sorry no.
    Yes there’s the risk that the kitchen just reheats it in the back but what can you do.
  • its like passing the covid courtesy from another table.
    but if the food is relatively untouched (meaning its covered with something or sorts) then i would just eat it.
    i’m the don’t waste any food type of person
  • No, because that dish should be prepared for that specific customer. You serve the guy the wrong the dish, that’s on the restaurant. Plus this guy was coughing all over it, I’m not taking it.
  • I would go into the kitchen and cook it myself.
