GIRL’S BF QUITS HIS JOB TO PLAY MORE GAMES, WANTS TO BE A PROFESSIONAL “YUGIOH” PLAYER

Boyfriend quit his job this morning to play more fortnite and become a professional yugioh card player
He’s 24.

This is obviously going to put the brunt of the financial responsibility on me. He’s not willing to budge as he says working is too stressful and takes too much time out of his day away from Fortnite.

He wants to spend the time playing yugioh cards with his friends to ultimately play competitively and be the best in the world.

This clearly isn’t normal. Should I move on?

Netizens’ comments

  • Yes, yes you should. By all means he can follow his dream, but why are you financing it? Time to move along and find someone that isn’t using you.
  • “I’m thrilled you are following your bliss. I too am going to follow my bliss, which is finding a responsible partner to share my life with. Which you are not. I wish you very well with your future endeavors.”
  • Give him a dose of reality.
    We all have dream jobs we wish we could have. But the bills still have to be paid while we work toward those goals.
    Unless he is financially independent (meaning he has plenty of money in the bank to live off of indefinitely, while chasing his dream), then he needs to maintain a job and help with finances.
    If he still refuses to see the light, send him packing back to his family. They can coddle him. That’s not your job and he’ll become a dead weight and financial burden you will absolutely resent! Especially since being able to get paid for doing those things is extremely difficult to break into and even when you do, it’s not a stable financial plan anyway.

S’PORE BIKE KENA HIT & RUN BY M’SIA BIKE, CAN’T CLAIM INSURANCE AGAINST FOREIGN VEHICLES

A motorcycle in Singapore was hit by a Malaysia registered motorcycle in Singaproe, and the rider said that he can’t claim insurance because the offender is a foreign vehicle.

Here is what he said

Today I had my first hit and run motorcycle accident.

My rear camera shows a Malaysian bike JTT7515 crash into my rear, breaking my rear reflector, causing me to fall hitting my head on the ground so hard my helmet visor shattered and flew off and sustaining damage to my bike,

then the rider backs off and rides away..

My insurance company NTUC says they cannot claim against a Malaysian vehicle even if the accident happens in Singapore and that vehicle is ridden in SGP by a Malaysian working here..

what injustice.. I feel upset and angry but I am told nothing can be done…

2 MEN TO BE CHARGED: IMPERSONATE AND CHEAT DRIVING THEORY TEST

The Police will be charging two men, a 28-year-old man for his suspected involvement in attempted cheating by personation and another 51-year-old man for his suspected involvement in a conspiracy to commit cheating by personation.

On 28 June 2022, the Police received a report on persons cheating during a test. The 28-year-man had allegedly impersonated the 51-year-old man to take the Computerised Theory Driving Test at the Singapore Safety Driving Centre located at 2 Woodlands Industrial Park E4.

Through extensive follow up investigations, officers from Woodlands Police Division arrested the two men on the same day at the said location. Investigations revealed that they had conspired to cheat as one of them had impersonated the other by presenting the other man’s work permit to take the Computerised Theory Test.

The two men will be charged on 30 June 2022. The offence of attempted cheating by personation and the offence of cheating by personation each carries an imprisonment term of up to five years, a fine, or both.

Members of the public are advised not to impersonate other persons. The Police take a serious view of persons who may be involved in such fraudulent activities, and will be dealt with in accordance with the law.

277 PEOPLE FALLS VICTIM TO PRC OFFICIALS IMPERSONATION SCAM THIS YEAR

277 PEOPLE FALLS VICTIM TO PRC OFFICIALS IMPERSONATION SCAM THIS YEAR

Since January 2022, there have been at least 277 victims, with losses amounting to at least $30.3 million.

Victims would receive voice-recorded phone calls allegedly from the Ministry of Health, the High Court or other government agencies. When the victims followed the instructions on the call to make further contact, the call would be directed to scammers claiming to be a police officer. The scammers would inform the victims that they were being investigated for money laundering and other offences. The scammers would direct the victims to do any of the following:

  • Provide their personal information and bank account information
  • Open bank accounts
  • Transfer money from their bank accounts to other bank accounts ostensibly for the purposes of Police investigations
  • Report their movements daily
  • Meet unknown subjects to hand over or collect fake documents from them
  • Keep the investigations secret

Victims would only discover that they had been scammed when they realised that there were unauthorised transactions made from their bank accounts, or when the scammers did not return the money they had transferred for the purported “Police investigations”.

The Police would like to emphasise that overseas law enforcement agencies have no jurisdiction to conduct operations in Singapore, arrest anyone or ask members of the public to help with any form of investigations. The Police will never ask you to transfer money into another bank account for the purpose of investigations.

MISSING 23 Y.O JAPAN AV STAR FOUND DEAD, WITHOUT CLOTHES & TIED TO A TREE

Rina Arano a Japanese adult actress was reported missing on 8 June 2022.

Less than 2 weeks after the missing person report, the 23-year-old woman was found decomposing in Hitachiota, Ibaraki Prefecture forest.

The body was found just 6 meters downslope from the road. She was tied to a tree and she did not have any clothes on her.

Rina is a freelancer who charges over SGD$1,000 per shoot which involves her doing videos and photo taking.

CCTV footage revealed that she was last seen on June 5 with a man who has been contacting her and she had entered his car.

The 33-year-old man who left with Rina immediately became a suspect and subsequent investigations revealed that his car’s dash camera recorded his vehicle to the forest where Rina was found.

The 33-year-old man denied the allegations of any involvement in the crime and claimed that he was a photographer who did a photoshoot with Rina.

Autopsy reports revealed that the woman’s throat was crushed believing that she was strangled to death.

Investigations are ongoing.

NETIZEN SAYS PARENTS SHOULD NOT JUST GIVE CHILD IPAD AS “AUTOPILOT” TOOL

NETIZEN SAYS PARENTS SHOULD NOT JUST GIVE CHILD IPAD AS “AUTOPILOT” TOOL

Most people who have children, don’t seem to fully understand what they are getting into.

As I am at the age where most of my friends are married and having children/had children, many around me have started to ask why my wife and I do not have any yet.

The answer is simple. Unless you truly want to have children, and you want to devote your time towards nurturing a child, you should not have children. This answer often makes people around me uncomfortable as it seems like it is a direct jab at their life choices.

Many around us tend to have children simply because it seems to be the “next step in life”. Or perhaps as some form of insurance against old age as they may have a child or two to care for them as they age. Sure, these are valid reasons as long as you nurture and love your children.

Downhill

But this is where it all goes downhill. Where parents only want to enjoy the fun parts of parenting and dump the rest to everyone and everything else around them.

Instead of spending quality time educating and nurturing the child, many young parents like to whip out the iPad so the child can go on “autopilot” mode and they can use their mobile phones or computers in peace. The amount of actual human interaction that the child receives is what helps to nurture and allow the child to grow as an intellectual.

Children are brought to the world by their parents and if their own parents don’t even want to spend time with them, then what kind of childhood are these children going to go through? It takes a lot of real love and patience to really nurture a human being, and it simply cannot be reduced to 30 minutes of interaction spread across a day. Let alone creating your “insurance” as a side piece.

After years and years of watching how people can say things like “Parenthood is the best thing that can happen to you” or “the sacrifice is all worth it” while whipping out the iPad at the dinner table for their child and blasting Baby Shark while the domestic helper attempts to feed the child and they sit there themselves to use their phones, I’ve come to the conclusion that it is no easy feat being a parent. A true parent, not a sperm donor or egg incubator.

I know that this post will likely not make any difference, but I would like to suggest to couples that are considering to have children, to really understand what you are getting yourselves into. Should you choose to embark on the journey of Parenthood, I applaud you and sincerely hope you nurture a good and responsible human being to be part of our society.

RESIDENT THREATENS TO SUE FLYER DISTRIBUTOR FOR GIVING HIM A FLYER

RESIDENT THREATENS TO SUE FLYER DISTRIBUTOR FOR GIVING HIM A FLYER

Got berated and threatened for distributing flyers

I am a 49yo housewife. 3 months ago, I started real estate agents flyers distributing at HDB door-to-door.

The remuneration isn’t great, ($0.03/pc) it’s OTOT job, relatively easy (albeit tiring) fits my time schedule and i only need to work about 2 to 3 hours, earn some small pocket allowance and basically also regard it as workout job.

i know it can be annoying seeing flyers stucked at the side of the gate, some residents will put up a notice ‘NO FLYERS’ or ‘WE ARE NOT SELLING OUR HOUSE’ and will skip their units when i see such notice.

Some residents will politely decline, some will take it from me, and there was a teenage resident who hollered at me to remove the flyer. I take it in my stride.

Yesterday, a resident left his gate and door wide open. I slot the flyer at the side of the gate. As I was at the next unit, he came to the door, pointed the flyer I stuck and asked ‘What is this?’

I quickly apologized & took it back. He asked ‘what are letterboxes for?’  I naively thought he was providing me a suggestion. No, he was creating a window to lash at me.

I went on to reply ‘the letterboxes are locked, and we were told to go from unit to unit’. Thats when he raised his voice ‘letterbox are locked for a reason. It is precisely the reason we dont want to receive these. Don’t you people get it?’

I tried to calm him down and explain further, that I didn’t see any notices being put up indicating…. and he cut me off by saying ,”Just go lah. Do you want me to sue you and trust me i sue someone before. GO!”

I apologized to him for the 3rd time and went on with my job.

Honestly, I was quite disturbed by this incident.

Why would he want to go as far as threatening to sue me? Did he feel gratified after berating me ? On what grounds can he sue me? People sue for a reason, especially monetary. But there was none here. It is an empty threat obviously. 

Is being a flyer distributor a very lowly regarded job. I still have 3 more blocks to cover before the end of the assigned blocks.

Should I still continue? I don’t seem to be the right person especially when I haven’t got over the incident with the disgruntled resident.

GUY TOLD GF HE’S GOING TO FEMALE FRIEND’S HOME TO DRINK & SLEEP OVER

GUY TOLD GF HE’S GOING TO FEMALE FRIEND’S HOME TO DRINK & SLEEP OVER

My bf wants to get drunk alone with his female friend and sleep over with her

We’ve been dating 3 years and he’s known her for maybe 10 months. They became pretty close while our relationship became strained due to going long distance for the past year.

He sees her somewhat often but has never really made plans to visit me without my initiating the planning in some way over the past year.

He told me today he’s going to go over to her place, get drunk and sleep over.

I feel like he’s being disrespectful to our relationship, but he dismissed me and said “the plans are kinda already set in stone, so…”

What do I do?

Netizens’ comments

  • You dump him. He is showing you who is first in his life and it isn’t you.
  • That’s wildly disrespectful to your relationship, especially that you voiced your concern about it crossing your boundaries. The “already set in stone” is a BS excuse. I think the only answer is to end things now before it gets worse.

One of them wearing a jacket was seen getting hit by several of them and eventually fell to the floor.
