I have a very disturbing story to share. My usual Sunday morning routine is to da bao breakfast from the hawker centre that is close to my home. Once I am done getting my breakfast, I will walk back home and I will without fail to walk past toa Payoh lor 8 block 214. I have to walk into block 214 void deck in order for me to get home.
Every week as I repeat my Sunday morning routine I will always encounter an old uncle who every time I pass that void deck would always hold his phone in a landscape view and hold it up in my direction.
So for weeks I always thought that it was just my imagination that he is filming me, but today I decided to confirm my suspicions.
As I was walking toward the lor 8 block 214 void deck, as usual, I saw him there holding up his phone in my direction. So I decided to walk into block 214 from a different direction. He immediately moved his position and walk toward the angle where he could get me in range of his camera. So I was pissed off, this guy was clearly filming me.
I decided to confront this sick bastard and I walked up to him. As I was walking toward him, he immediately put his phone down and avoided eye contact with me. I then asked him: “who the bloody hell do you think you’re filming”. He then feigned ignorance and acted as though I wasn’t there. I then demanded to see the content of his phone or I would call the police. He immediately relinquished his phone and to my horror, I saw tons of videos of not only myself but other male residences around the lor 8 toa payoh residence!
I immediately told him that I wanted all those videos deleted and that if I ever see them again in the toa Payoh neighbourhood I’m calling the cops on him. I took his picture and he immediately went down on his knees to beg me to delete it, I just told him that the next time I see him the picture is going to the police.
I swear I really wanted to beat the living crap out of this sick bastard if I could get away with it and my career and future isn’t on the line. He’s just lucky I restrained myself all he would be in the hospital.
To all my fellow residents at toa Payoh please beware of this perverted uncle.
Sincerely,
Submitted email: a very traumatised resident of lor 8 toa payoh.
Just wanna seek an avenue to rant. I got divorced in my late 20s, 5 years down the road, still earning a meagre 3.2k salary, no savings (all locked up in insurance), no capability to own a car, doesn’t have a high flying career, standing at a mere 1.6m, it’s just impossible to find love again.
Bread can survive without love, but love cannot survive without bread. I’m still in the midst of upgrading my qualifications to get a better paying job, but till then, this is gonna be a long single lonely road. I too, crave intimacy, not just purely sex. I crave attention, would love being showered with care and concern, having someone there to be there thru good and bad days, cuddle through nights, holding hands while strolling, just being for there for one another.
I’ve tried all sorts of dating apps, I don’t get any swipes back. People have introduced their single female friends to me, but they are either away in a different country, or, they are snapped up along the way when their other suitors drives or earn way more than me.
I don’t blame them.
I totally understand. Some tell me, don’t look for love, let love find me. Given my current qualities, love will never find me if I don’t find love. I am human, I too, need attention, care and love. I just hope someone special that sees the good in me, and overlooks that I am short, poor, not having a high flying career, does not drive.
Life is like a game, on tough mode for men like me.
A netizen has kpkb on Facebook about her recent experience of taking a bus ride.
She claims that passengers sitting on the aisle seat are inconsiderate as they put out their legs on the aisle and other passengers needs to keep on saying excuse me so that they can walk through.
She also claims that many people walking through the aisle have their dresses and pants dirtied by this group of inconsiderate people.
A netizen has posted a video about a group of drinking uncles and their girls showing off their sick dancing moves at a coffee shop at Upper Aljunied Road.
They can be seen worshipping the heavens as they raise up their hands in the air and scream “yo ah yo” along with the music.
They seem to be oblivious to the current Covid-19 laws as they continued drinking and partying without caring about the people who walked pass.
My childhood sweetheart has been with me for a long time. For the past 10 years since secondary school days, the relationship has been true love my whole life. I got married to her at the age of 25 and life was good.
I was making a decent salary as a salesman, averaging an income of $8,000 a month after CPF. Shortly after marriage, there was a month in which I did not hit the sales target and only brought home $5,000. Due to our commitment to the future, we always put aside 80% of our income to save for the future.
She works in Jetstar when we were married.
My response to her was let’s eat something cheaper today instead of going to a fancy restaurant. Initially, she said ok with an unhappy face. On our way to the food court. She said
Why this month only $5k, not $8k. I said sales are bad. She got angrier and said
“ITS BECAUSE YOU GOT LAZY AND NOW U CANT BRING ME TO A NICE PLACE TO EAT”
I said that eating chicken rice that is 3 dollars and eating a fancy Japanese dish for $30 both fills the stomach what do you want?
NOW U CANT AFFORD TO TAKE CARE OF ME!
i calmly asked her “you marry me for money or love”. She said one word “MONEY”
I walked off and cut every single branded stuff I bought for her and pack the bags and tell her to get out of my house.
I asked her since we were together in the past we never had much chance to visit high class restaurants. Is it because i started to make more money and i spoiled her til she rot to the core. Truly money is the root of evil.
I am victim of a scam by the PRC scammer, Ms Fan Xin Wen to obtain Permanent Resident in Singapore and cheated around $300,000 in total from year 2009 to 2015.
I had met her on May 2009. She was then residing in Singapore on a work permit as she was working as a singer at a KTV lounge. We dated for a year before she proposed marriage to me on or about December 2010 as she was concern that her work permit would not be extended after its expiration on 31st March 2011. I was prepared to marry her as she had convinced me that our marriage was not one of convenience and that she loved me and was committed to a marital life with me. We married on 03 April 2011 after obtain approval.
After the marriage however, Fan did not reside with me and she did not quit her job as promised. Fan told me that she needed to stay near her workplace and that we could still be married and live in separate home for the sake of convenience. She assured me that once she quit her job, she would live life as a married couple.
Fan obtained her PR status in October 2011. I assisted in her application. On 7th February 2015, she messaged me on or about 2am that she was ready to move in to stay with me. She informed me that she would quit working at KTV lounge and would find a normal job soon. At 7am the next day, she brought her luggage and moved into my home. I was surprized by her sudden appearance and decision but I was happy.
However, shorty after moving to my home, Fan confessed to me that she had been with another man for the past four year and this man had just passed away. She explained that that was the reason why she could not move in to stay with me. She apologized and wanted to start life afresh with me who was her legal husband. Fan had also told me that she was mistress of a drug dealer in Malaysia before came to Singapore. She had been arrested in Malaysia and China for drug case but managed to release through bribery.
I decided to forgive her, to choose to trust her, and to move on. I comforted myself that she deserved another chance as she told the truth. I loved her considerably and was prepared to give her another chance. I was hoping that once we live a normal life together, our commitment to each other would be stronger.
On 17th February 2015, I went back with her to her home town in China to celebrate the Chinese New Year and to meet her parents and relatives. I had spent a considerable amount for this trip in cash gifts to her relatives. I came back to Singapore alone to resume my work first. Fan returned to Singapore but instead of returning to my home, went back to her previous condominum where she stayed with her lover of 4 years.
I was shocked by her behaviour and confronted her about it. She then callously told me that she wanted a divorce as she wanted to look for a younger man who is handsome. I was flabbergasted.
She admitted that she married me because she needed to obtain PR in Singapore and money to buy house for her parent and brother. She informed me that she might consider reconciliation only if I was prepared to maintain her and to give her $10,000 per month as allowance and pay her credit card bills. I had given her $10,000 per month and paid her credit card bills from April 2015 to May 2015. We did not resume cohabitation and she admitted also that she only wanted to cheat more of my money for her expense in Singapore. I was vey hurt and very much in shock.
I have filed for divorced and she did not contest nor dispute the facts of her unreasonable behaviour. Fan have immediately remarried to a young Singapore guy and enjoy the fruit of her scam happily in Singapore. I am warning the Singapore man not to fall into the PRC KTV girl scam and became another victim.
A foreign man in Malaysia picked up two “5 million” bills and wanted to pay for his hotel stay.
According to a report by Sin Chew.com, Ms Cheng, who worked at the hotel in Kuala Lumpur, felt angry and funny at the time. She explained over and over again to the foreign man that the note and could not be used.
But the man refused to “understand”
Ms Zheng said that the other party was obviously not here to play a prank and she also explained that Hell Banknotes are very similar to the local currency banknotes.
The man told Ms Zheng that he had picked up these two “banknotes” on the ground. He cherished them and kept them in his pocket for a whole month.
Ms Zheng said: “I have been working as a receptionist for so many years. This is the first time I have encountered this kind of thing. It is really auspicious. Fortunately, I did not meet it on the night shift. Dude, the Ghost Festival (Chinese Yuan Festival) is not over yet. Don’t scare me like this.”
