A video emerged online showing a YP illegally vaping in public.
His friend, who was filming him, could be heard telling him to “vape vape vape!”, adding that he was “11 years old ah!”
The boy then shouted “salakau!” before flashing a gang sign.

When we are young we often hear the elderly telling us to keep quiet when we smell certain smells. Sometimes it’s flowery sometimes it’s sour.
Here is the story:
Last night I don’t know want to cry or want to laugh. When I’m young my ah ma always tell me if suddenly got a weird smell in the middle of the night its best we keep quiet.
My GF was still asleep but I woke up in the middle of the night and I smelled something sour.
I started to sweat as I suddenly remembered what my ah ma told me when I was young and it is also the Chinese Ghost Festival. The more I think about it the more I sweat. I shake for hours before I could bear it no longer.
The more I sweat the stronger the smell gets
I had no choice but to wake up my girlfriend. My girlfriend woke up and she sounds concerned as my voice was shaking, she asked me what happened and I whisper to her ear and told her what happened.
She got pissed off and shouted and me and said the only sour thing that was in the room was my armpit, She said the more I sweat of course the sour it is lah. She then kicks me out of the room at 3am tell me to come back only after I shower.
They then filmed a reaction video of themselves trying the food.
The YouTube duo, Josh Carrott and Ollie Kendal, tried the SAF way of “drinking” the instant coffee; which is by pouring the coffee powder into your mouth before gulping a mouthful of water and mixing them in your mouth.
He described it as “surprising” and “not bad”.
They then tried the combat rations, including “black pepper pasta with sausage”, “lentil curry”, “Javanese noodle with chicken franks” and “curry rice with chicken”.
They described the food as tasting good, despite its disgusting appearance.
Kendal described the Lentil curry as having a “nutty poo” texture.
Graduated from NUS a few years back and I’ve seen plenty of classmates turn to insurance or real estate.
The moment this happens, their ig accounts immediately evolve into major cringe fests splattered with motivational quotes,
“I’m hustling to help my clients not for the money”, “I’m all about sharing knowledge”, xx achiever for the month and thank you to my entire ancestry line.
Firstly let’s be real, you are there for the money so just own it. Next, just to clarify I really respect some friends who are working in this industry because it really is hard work.
However, some people really make me sick because I’ve seen how they were like back in school. They were some of the most irresponsible and lazy people around who can’t even be punctual for important things, yet now they are suddenly the most responsible hustler trying to sell you an expensive insurance package or a house.
Erm seriously, even if I were desperate, I probably wouldn’t trust you with my money given how two faces you are.
Tan Boon Kheng, 58-years-old, was sentenced on 11 August to 15 months imprisonment after pleading guilty to 5 charges, mostly under the women’s charter.
4 more charges were taken into consideration during sentencing.
He had reportedly helped to run a vice ring in Singapore, with up to 9 thai prostitutes under him, of whom he helped to arrange their accommodation as well as earring from their sex work.
Tan joined the vice trade in 2018 through a man known as Ah Beng.
Ah Beng told him that he could earn from the prostitution of the Thai women in Singapore that he knew.
Tan then agreed and paid Ah Beng $300 for each of the 9 prostitutes that he received, as a “recommendation fee”.
Tan then signed a tenancy agreement and paid $1,900 along with Ng Hock Soon, 66 (the co-accused) for the first month rental of an apartment to house the prostitutes.
Tan was informed in July 2018 that business was slow, so he went to check out the situation at Geylang.
He noticed high human traffic and saw a lodging house, which he rented afterwards, telling his girls to provide sexual services there.
Tan then received 2 Thai sex workers at Golden Mile Complex after they arrived in Singapore, before bringing them to their accommodation.
He took their passports and told them that they had to fulfill their contracts before he’d return it back to them.
They also had to give him $1,200 each before he returned their passports back to them, which is to “deter” them from fleeing.
Sharing this to all ladies who are in the same situation as me. BF and I have been together for a couple of years and are going to collect the keys to our flat soon. That said, I have been feeling some regret about making it all the way here with this guy. From the outside, he is a pretty above average guy but deep down I am beginning to realise his selfishness or some would say stinginess?
He has a pretty stable career and earns above-average but whenever it comes to us, everything is about money. You might think prudence is good but there comes a point when prudence turns into self centeredness (if theres such a word?). For example, when it comes to eating out many places are deemed too expensive or not worth for him. I am not talking about high end restaurants but your usual outlets in the malls. Taking grab on very hot days is also “expensive”. In short, everything is expensive as long as he does not like it.
For things that he likes ( cameras, watches, food that he likes etc) then those things are ” worth it”. He acts like a beggar with me but has many watches close to the 5 digit range for EACH watch. The last straw came when he wanted to use COVID to skip having a decent wedding reception.
Of course, i have to agree to let him save face but deep down I am seriously questioning if i should just forgo the flat and spend the remaining years of my life with someone more normal. And yes, he also thinks wedding rings, wedding expenses and all that are useless. When budgeting for the upcoming renovation he only wants to spend minimally to the point where the home looks like a joke. My point is whenever he does not see meaning in something, it is a waste of money regardless of how others feel about it.
Before you guys bash me, let me tell you that he is not poor by any means at all which is why I feel like I am not asking for the moon here.
I understand the importance of spending within your means and saving money but I also have a life to live. Ladies, what will you do if you were me? Leave or stay ?-
