A TikTok user, @happygoluckygohome, shared a video showing a perceived spooky encounter that he experienced while out for an “adventure” at Bukit Brown Cemetery.
While on their night drive at the cemetery, he saw a white coloured car being stuck at the side of the road.
The Tiktoker said that it looked like something was pulling the car that was ahead of them to the side of the road.
So the Tiktoker and his friend(s) then slowly reversed back out from the road, and they then called the police for help.
One of them then took a photo that allegedly has someone (or something) sitting on top of the car.
Although I have brightened up the video, zoomed in, zoomed out, looked at it upright, looked at it upside down – but I don’t see anything.
Also, who in the right mind goes to the bloody cemetery for an adventure at night lol.

No la the car is front wheel drive, can see that when he stepped on the gas the rear wheels dosent spin. so it looks like something is “pulling” it
A theft took place at Thai Experience, a massage shop that provides traditional massage and reflexology treatments at Pasir Panjang Road.
A total of about $1,800 was stolen by a man who was a regular customer of the massage shop, and it was very easy for the shop to identify him and track him down because they had his phone number.
“I would like to bring to everyone’s attention to an incident of stealing from my shop.
As you can see from the video, this person came into my shop and started looking around. He then opened the drawer at the counter and took money out of it.
He then looked inside the shop, opened the wicker basket and took more cash from there. All the while, he was looking around to see if there were any cameras around.
He is a regular customer of my shop and two of my staff members have his contact number
My staff contacted him and after several calls, he came back and returned the money to us. Hence, we decided not to report the matter to the police.
However, I still want to share our experience to deter the person from repeating such behaviour in my shop or anywhere else. I also wish for others to be aware of such incidents and be safe.”
Veteran comedian Mark Lee has jumped into the trend of a Chinese New Year game that has gone viral and seen many netizens playing, where a bunch of cash is laid out onto a table and the player has to scoop it up into a bucket blindfolded.
Whatever amount of money that they manage to scoop into the bucket is theirs to keep.
Actress Ee Chiou Huey, who is under Mark Lee’s King Kong Media Production team, took part and played his game, uploading the video onto her Instagram.
A pile of money consisting of $50 and $100 notes was seen laid out onto the table and Ee was seen blindfolded and holding onto a spatula and a bucket.
She was seen trying to scoop up the money repeatedly but the only thing that she managed to successfully scoop up was probably her imagination, at first.
Mark Lee was about to relent and throw a $10 note into her bucket to help her out but the 33-year-old managed to eventually scoop up a piece of $100 into the bucket.
She later revealed in her IG stories that her manager managed to win $690 in the same game, while she only managed $100 (lol).
Workers’ Party(WP) MP Jamus Lim shared a post on Facebook promoting the sale of the WP umbrella, raising funds for the party’s finances.
On the Workers’ Party’s website, the umbrella with the long handle is being priced at $16 while the foldable one is selling for $13.
Here is his Facebook post
To be quite honest, the #workersparty brolly isn’t the most subtle way to express your support for an alternative voice in Parliament.
But proceeds from sales of items such as this are one of the few ways available for opposition parties like us to keep our finances healthy, especially in off-election years where interest surrounding politics tends to wane.
And while it makes a statement, it is also a fine, handsome umbrella, which does a fantastic job of keeping the elements at bay, whether rain or shine.
In my walks around the estate, I have been pleased to see residents in #SengkangGRC happily brandishing the umbrella.

Hard to be an MP… need to be a model too
I have mine from a WP rally 11 years ago, still in good condition
Suggestion..put a rubber stopper at the bottom. Handy as walking stick for senior citizens.
A netizen shared his experience after crashing his Blue SG car into another car with a family of 5 inside at the time.
Here is the story:
I want to share my experience.
Got into an accident on 6th Feb 2022 Sunday night at around 9:15pm, along the T junction of Yishun Ave 8 and 9. This date is also Lunar New Year Day 6.
The drizzle ended. Road surface was wet. The vehicle infront of me looked like it was going to roll past the traffic light when Amber flashed. However he braked. My braking was too late. I braked hard and steered left.
I knocked into his rear bumper. (Picture as attached).
[Before you all want to ask for number to buy 4D, his car plate number is censored. You all can buy the BSG that I crashed.]
The airbag was deployed and it was an experience to remember.
Thankfully I am still alive to remember it.
The car in front of me carried 5 lives.
A couple, and their 3 young children.
I was alone in the Blue SG car.
I gathered my composure, pressed the hazard light. Sent a voice message to inform my family, and exit the car.
This is clearly my fault. Given that I was the one that knocked him from the Rear. I should have kept a safer braking distance. I have learnt my lesson.
The car owner was composed too. I went forward to see his car and passengers.
I was so guilty when I saw 2 of his kids and his wife were startled and had tears in their eyes. I apologised profusely, especially to the kids who were seated at the rear. They must have been shocked from the impact.
We were all thankful no one was injured.
We exchanged contact details, took each other’s phone number, and also take photo of our NRIC. Also took video and photo of the scene.
As no one was injured, and no public property was damaged, there was no need to call the police – as confirmed by the Blue SG Customer Service Officer.
The owner checked his car, although it sounded funny (today he said that it is likely from the damaged exhaust) he could still drive it off.
He drove off about 10 mins after the impact, while I stayed back, communicated with BSG CS as they paged for a Tow Truck.
Was advised to deploy the Red Triangle from the boot by CSO. But it was not available.
The wait for the tow truck was 1hr 45 mins.
Just my luck on a Sunday night of CNY.
The accident was along lane 1 (left) and I pushed the car slightly further inwards to the road side.
I stood by the road side and guided oncoming traffic to steer away from Lane 1 with my mobile phone’s flash light.
Didn’t help that the hazard light died after about 45 mins after the impact.
Today, as per the law, I went down to the Accident Reporting Centre at Defu Lane, with my driver’s license, NRIC and all the photos and footage in my phone (all required).
The whole reporting process was about 25 mins for my case. You will be required to sketch up the scene and write a 1 page report of what happened.
I have been told that it takes about 2 weeks for BlueSG to advise me the cost/damage/excess for the damaged car.
And the insurance from the other party could take up to months to be settled.
Nobody ever wishes to get into an accident, but accidents do happen, regardless of your no. of years of driving experience. And we all pray that no bodily harm and no lives to be lost at all.
After this experience, I will be even more careful, regardless day or night, rain or shine driving.
The BSG car fleets’ insurance is under Liberty Insurance.
Perhaps along the way, I can update you guys on this post about how things develop. Eg the cost of the BSG claim, and also from the other party’s damage.
I have been told that the excess charges changes between 2 age bands: above or below 27 years old; and whether you have 2 years or more of driving experience.
No point guesstimating the total bill now.
I am just glad no one was hurt
My intention to share my accident experience here with other fellow BlueSG users is to increase awareness and also share how one can respond in an accident. [Of course, again, I don’t wish this upon any one of you!!!!]
I wish all of you safe road usage and safe road passages always
However, it’s great to see that there are still good people around. A taxi driver pastes a piece of notice at the back of the passenger seat stating:
“To show appreciation to those that work in the Hospital and Nursing Homes, I would like to offer a $4 discount for your ride. If you are not in your uniform, please show your work pass for verification in order to get the discount. I appreciate your hard work and contribution to our country!
#SGUnited, Together We Can Overcome!
Feel free to use hand sanitiser located at the side door“
Here are what netizens said:
I sat in a taxi last yr aft a cruise during chinese new yr and the taxi uncle had 2 rows of free snacks on the back of the seats, anime figures, a ton of warm fairy lights and he gave 2 dollar angbao. Obvs i gave extra like 5 dollar tips cuz he give me and my sister 4 dollars and he was so kind! Best taxi experience ever.
This is a very nice gesture but what I think what the health care workers really need is a better working environment and pay. Unfortunately the people in charge can only offer to clap for them.
He is not capable of changing their workplace, so he’s doing what he can instead of complaining about it online.
I’ve in this taxi once on the way to work. Thought it was something grab was offering
Seems like just last year drivers were refusing to pick up TTSH staff and landlords evicting nurses. Nice to see people caring.
A netizen shared how she was visiting her boyfriend’s mother for Chinese New Year and the mother kept trying to set him up with the neighbour girl, in front of her.
Here is the story:
I visited my boyfriend’s family for the first time on CNY and it was so awkward. I was literally just sitting there and his mom starts talking about how the neighbor girl is single and pretty, and she was going to invite her over.
I was sitting there like…. WTF. It felt like she was trying to “put me in my place” or something and despite my boyfriend declining he was being very unassertive about it.
So I got up and headed out. Drove home to my place. And texted my boyfriend “Not here for this reality dating show drama lol. Is your mom always like this?”
He asked me where I was and I said I’d headed out, I’m not into the trashy reality TV drama vibe. He asked where and I said I was at home.
He said he didn’t want me to get up and leave just like that and I said “Come on by then!” And he felt conflicted because his family was already tense after they realized I’d left.
I said, come by or don’t, just tell me when you figure it out.
But then I drank a lotta wine, and fell asleep.
My boyfriend was texting and calling a lot when I was asleep but I missed it all. He had apparently decided to leave and spend the night with me but when I didn’t answer he ended up staying.
The next day I asked him if he sorted things out with his mom so she doesn’t go saying that crap anymore. He said he’d said he wasn’t interested when it was happening. I asked if he could have a serious talk after the fact because I was there when it was happening and I don’t think she got it.
He wasn’t sure (???) So I just made other plans because even though he’d invited me to his I wanted a good time and not to be dealing with pettiness.
My boyfriend was frustrated and it’s been an ongoing argument. I think he should have chewed out his mom for being petty and weird.
With the recent saga ongoing about the actual weight of the meat sold by NTUC FairPrice being much lesser than the weight indicated on the packaging, reporters from the Shin Min Daily News decided to go to other supermarket outlets like Cold Storage, Sheng Shiong and even NTUC FairPrice to find out if it is the same situation there.
According to Shin Min Daily News, here are the findings that they have discovered after their field trips to various of these outlets.
None of them gave lesser than indicated
The outlets which the reporter went for the field trip to check on the allegations showed that none of them charged more for less.
The NTUC FairPrice outlet which the reporter went to gave exactly what was indicated on the packaging.
That is a whopping 75g more or 25% more meat than what was indicated.
Sheng Siong
The Sheng Siong outlet which the reporter went to also gave more meat than the weight that was indicated.
The packet of chicken meat which the reporter had picked up weighed 273g instead of what was indicated on the packaging at 252g.
That is 21g more or roughly 8% more meat than what was indicated.
No particular reason why
There were no particular reasons indicated in the article as to why the certain outlets which was visited by the reporter gave more than what was expected.
The report also did not indicate which outlets did the reporter go to for the field trip for investigation.
The woman that I dated for 6 years between poly through the end of the university has moved to near where my wife and I live. Because we not only have a history but also because our moms are close friends
I took up my ex-girlfriend’s invitation to meet up several nights ago. It soon became apparent that my ex had put on quite a lot of weight since we broke up. Obviously, I didn’t want to say anything, my intention was to help my ex learn where to go, how to get around, things like that. I had a nice night, it was great catching up with her.
No sooner did we get in the car than my wife just puts it out there that my ex is fat. For as much as I love my wife, sometimes she lacks the ability to keep something to herself or simply word it better. I asked my wife to not use that word, she followed up by asking me to admit that my ex was enormous.
I didn’t admit it, I just told her we should just move past it. For about the next 40 minutes, my wife lambasted my ex, from her body to her outfit, called her lazy, overindulgent, so on and so forth. I reminded my wife that just because she strictly follows a strict vegan diet & daily workouts doesn’t mean that everyone else is fair game for ridicule.
My wife didn’t appreciate my reminder and thought that I’m an unfaithful husband for not siding with her.
Here are what netizen thinks:
Commenting on the bodies of others is off limits. Further making judgements on their life and character because of their bodies is gross. There could be medical reasons for the weight gain, your wife doesn’t know. Good on you for not backing her judgement and toxicity.
Yeah, those kinds of people are really kinda scary to watch. You know those people who act one way around one set of people and then as soon as the audience change its like a switch has flicked? That’s freaky. Also imagine what she could potentially say behind your back or the backs of others. Yeeesh
Seriously, this is some next-level stuff right here. It’s one thing to make a few snide comments about someone when you’re insecure (not saying it’s okay at all, but it’s probably something a lot of people have done at some point and would rather not admit); going on a 40 minute tirade of insulting someone she presumably just met is just very concerning and dare I say, a red flag.
According to Today, there have been a spate of fires across housing estates in Singapore such as Bedok, Tampines, Telok Blangah, Woodlands and Toa Payoh.
Apart from keeping our homes decluttered which might be a good measure to prevent fires from spreading rapidly, it is suggested that we should all play our part in ensuring that our corridors and common staircase landings stay free from cluttering of household items.
This is because in the event of a fire, the smoke has the capabilities to affect the entire block rapidly via the stairs and prevent residents from escaping through that route.
Misusing staircase landings
Staircase landings have long often been misused by residents as storage spaces for their household items.
According to Today, it is suggested that Town Councils should conduct strict enforcement on staircase landing areas to ensure that the space is not used as storage as these are areas belonging to the public and having unnecessary cluttering of items there increases the risks of fires and mischief acts by culprits.
They can also slow down evacuation.
In the event of a fire breaking out, most residents will use the stairs too escape and this can cause a huge problem especially when the lifts are not in operation and the whole block is linked to one staircase.
According to Today, official notices should be given out by Town Councils to their residents to remove their items from the landings such as how they do with abandoned bikes in the void decks.
Once the notice period is up and the items are still there, the authorities should be enabled to remove of any unnecessary items there.
Recalcitrant who have been reminded time and again but refuse to heed the advice to remove the items should be referred to the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) and punished under the Fire Safety Act.
