WOMAN WENT TO WATERWAY POINT NAIL SPA, PAID $328 TO MAKE NOISE

A netizen recently shared on social media about her displeasure at the services provided by a nail spa which operates in Waterway Point shopping centre in Punggol.

She had went there hoping to get her nails and feet nicely done, only to be upset about the services that and encounter which she got from the staff there who according to her were pushy.

She eventually gave in to the staff constant pressurising and claimed that she paid $328 for ugly nails and feet.

Here is her story

“I recently went to Pixie Nail Spa (Waterway Point) to get my nails done up. I really didn’t care if it lasted through CNY or not. It was just for my own enjoyment.

But the staff was pressuring me to get gels to my discomfort when all I wanted was a $18 quick shape and normal colour.

When I told them “it’s fine, Gels don’t work well on me cause I have very soft nails.” They proceeded to push me even more option like nail hardener which are expensive.

This is after I said no twice that I don’t really want it. They coax my husband who was beside me to agree with them (cause he doesn’t know better) and make me feel very very cornered and uncomfortable.

This whole conversation was also done in Chinese when I already told them I can only speak English. Which enable them to fast talk and confuse me.

So moving on, I did in the end succumb to the pressure (which I cried in the end which make them sort of back away a little cause I seriously felt very attacked.)

So one of the staff proceeded to do a Nail Hardening Gel Overlay With Gel Manicure. After this WHOLE FIASCO the result for it was disgusting.

If you can see the images. They are way too thick , unevenly applied so it is bumpy and make my nails look so stubby. Like… if you want to hard sell as least make it nice.

Anyways they also add on stuff to my husband callus treatment and wasn’t transparent with the price. So from a simple $18 express manicure become $176 disgusting stubby nails which apparently will last till CNY much to my horror.

And my husband $89 callus treatment become $152 with that additional add on which is basically a herbal lotion on his foot.

Total damage :$328 for ugly nails and feets”

GUY WALKED INTO ROOM AND SAW HIS GF’S FATHER IN HIS BIRTHDAY SUIT

A guy shared a story of how he forgot that his girlfriend’s father was staying over at their place one day and just went into the room without knocking the door as he forgot that there was somebody staying inside the room.

Usually it would have been nothing much but the guy shared that when he walked into the room, his girlfriend’s father was in his birthday suit in its full glory.

He mentions that he cannot get the image out of his mind now and keeps seeing it even in his dreams.

Here is the story

“I live in an 2 bedroom apartment, one being me and my girlfriends bedroom, and the other being our office.

We have been living together as a trial as we are going to get married soon and wanted to try living together to see how it feels like.

We rarely have guests over, but her father had just sold their old home and was waiting to move into the new one and we thought it would be nice to let him have our bedroom until he moves into their new home.

I have a google home that is my alarm in our office that goes off at 7:55 am on weekdays.

When it went off this morning I rushed to turn it off because I did not want to interrupt his sleep.

When I opened the door (without knocking because I assumed he was asleep) I was greeted with a package.

He was spread eagle on our bed in his birthday suit all in its full glory and his ‘little brother’ at its peak.

I panicked and shut the door quick, then told him I was coming back in to turn the alarm off.

Afterwards he didn’t seem to look or feel awkward, but I can’t get the image out of my head and every time I close my eyes or even in my dreams, I still see it.”

GUY SHOWS THE DIFFERENCE IN PETROL PRICES IN JUST ONE WEEK

A netizen has taken to social media to voice out that the petrol prices in Singapore has increased yet again.

In his post, he uploaded a scanned image of two receipts from SPC, one dated on 16 January 2022 and the other dated today (24 January 2022).

On 16 January, the man appeared to have filled his car with Levo 92 from the SPC outlet in Jurong East where the price was at S$2.590 per litre and fast forward to today, 24 January 2022 when he went to have his car filled with Levo 92 from the SPC outlet at Bukit Panjang, the price which he paid was at S$2.620 per litre.

This is an increase of S$0.03 in a matter of one week.

Petrol price increase

According to the Straits Times, most petroleum companies have had their fuel pump prices increased from two cents to seven cents since October 2021.

According to the report, SPC’s prices for their fuel have been at S$2.62, S$2.65 and S$3.13 a litre for its 92, 95 and 98 octane petrols respectively.

Comments from Netizens

Here are what some netizens have to say about the man’s post:

  • Download motorist app to keep track of your preferred fuel and gas station. They’ll inform u the moment price goes up.
  • You always have the option to see the price at the pump before pumping. Just that you chose not to.
  • Lol. Actually.. why not just start your own oil company from researching for locations, drilling, shipping, refining and lastly to petrol pump. Closed chain and not obliged to sell internationally, only to yourself. Then you can dictate your prices for your petrol forever!
  • There’s a App showing the price of all petrol station in Sg. Anyway not advisable to pump the cheapest grade. End up you use more petrol. Firstly there’s no power. Secondly more carbon build up. Need servicing earlier than estimated. Use 98 better.

Recap

FUEL PUMP PRICES INCREASED YET AGAIN BY 2 TO 7 CENTS IN S’PORE

THIEVES SEEN STEALING FROM PARKED MOTORBIKE @ MULTI-STOREY CARPARK

A video emerged online showing a group of thieves stealing from a couple of parked motorcycles at a multi-storey carpark.

The theft was captured on the dashcam of one of the parked cars in the carpark.

Here is the caption

“caught on camera stealing stuffs from 2 parked motorcycles.

They took away 2pairs of gloves (1pair from each motorcycle) and left a pair of old gloves. One guy (with the Grab bag) is seen coming back to distribute the old glove 1 pc to each bike.

They seem to be having fun doing this stuff of going around carparks and stealing stuffs at this time.

This is not the first time that it happened. In the past, he already lost a helmet and a vandalized side mirrors (was snapped off and seem like an attempt to remove it).

Only this time he has managed to recover a camcar footage from a car parked in front of his 2 bikes.

I hope they see this video of themselves and realise it’s not cool to steal.”

Potential penalties

Persons found guilty for the offence of theft, under Section 379 of the Penal Code, Chapter 224, face a jail term of up to 3 years and/or a fine.

DRUNK GIRL HIT ON ALL HER GUY FRIENDS AFTER DRINKING

DRUNK GIRL HIT ON ALL HER GUY FRIENDS AFTER DRINKING

A girl shared a story on how she had hit on all her guy friends while at a mutual friend’s 21st birthday party after they had too much to drink.

She had never had interest in any of the guys in her friendship clique but alcohol got the better of her that day and she tried to hit on all of them.

Here is the story

“I went to a friend’s (we’ll call her B) 21st birthday party. For anyone wanting to know, it was Euphoria themed, meaning I went all out when it came to colourful clothes and makeup.

Anyway, things immediately started to build up as people obviously noticed all the alcohol available at the party.

Not even a half hour later, we start taking shots. Me wanting to be the life of the party, I downed them like there was no tomorrow, with another friend (L) keeping up with me. Keep in mind that I’m a lousy drinker, so I was already drunk after 2 shots.

L was too, and we partied…HARD. As the party went on, we took more shots until I got in about 5 or 6. By then I was pretty wasted, and I was running in and out of the toilet.. L and I danced, and she picked me up whenever I fell (I still got some cuts and bruises on my back, elbows, and knees.

This is one of the things I don’t remember, but several people confirmed. In my drunk state, I guess I lost my sense because I asked most of my guy friends (all of which I had no interest in during normal time) if they wanted a lap dance.

I apparently even bragged out loud about how I gave the best lap dance and continue hitting on the guys and even called some of them cutiepie and all the suspicious things.

It starts to get even hazier at this point, few of my other friends are drunk too. We talk, we laugh, I cried for some reason, then everything went cold and black.

Then, I woke up on a sofa, but I wasn’t even home, so I almost lost my cool until I remembered where I was.

Some other friends were there, and we all experienced varying degrees of hangovers. After a while of talking about how lit the party was, they told me about the stuff I said.

After that I went home, shocked at what I’ve done.”

DOG TESTS POSITIVE FOR VIRUS TOGETHER WITH WHOLE FAMILY

A video was taken and uploaded on Tiktok recently showing that the family’s pet dog has tested positive for the virus together with the whole family.

The video is not taken in Singapore and it is unknown which country it was taken in.

The owner of the dog decided to use an Antigen Rapid Test (ART) kit to swab the dog after the whole family had got infected and tested positive for the virus at the same time as they were afraid that they might have passed the virus to the dog.

In the video, you can see that the owner opened up the swab stick and swab the interior of the dog’s mouth before placing it in the tube which held the liquid for testing.

Their worst fears were confirmed when their dog also tested positive after the test when two lines were seen on the testing kit.

Pets getting the virus

According to the CDC website, the virus could be passed from humans to animals in close contact.

There have been worldwide reports of pets, including cats and dogs, contracting the virus and it usually happens mostly after close contact with people who are infected with the virus

However, the risk of pets spreading the virus to humans is generally low.

What not to do

According to the CDC website, should your pet contract the virus, these are the things that you should avoid doing:

  • Do not attempt or put masks on your pets as that could harm them.
  • Do not wipe or bathe your pet with chemical disinfectants, alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or other products, such as hand sanitizer, counter-cleaning wipes, or other industrial or surface cleaners.

There is no evidence to show that the virus can spread from animals to people from the skin, fur, or hair of the pets.

Talk to your vet if you have questions about appropriate products for bathing or cleaning your pet​​.

EXTREMELY RARE ALBINO SQUIRREL SPOTTED BY LOCAL HIKERS

EXTREMELY RARE ALBINO SQUIRREL SPOTTED BY LOCAL HIKERS

We typically see brown squirrels or black ones with stripes in Singapore and it’s not every day we see a full albino squirrel.

These animals are active both in the day and night and feed mainly on plants and a mix of animals. They often have nests that are built with twigs and often found in forests, mangroves and even parks.

Here is what the netizen said:

Was glazing at the sky to look for nice and interesting cloud formation but spotted a White Squirrel instead..So compelled to share with u guys of this very unique spotting..Admin please delete if not appropriate..”

Netizens response:

  • Wow, indeed a rare species. Is my first time seeing a albino white squirrel. Thank you for sharing
  • Beautiful ..unaware that Singapore has wild white squirrel
  • its a rare albino white squirrel
  • Unfortunately, albino animals don’t live very long because they stood out so an easier target for predators. And due to the lack of black pigment, their eyes are sensitive to light and their eyesight will deteriorate as they age, that will make them more vulnerable.

Do and don’ts when you encounter wild animals

Although Singapore is small we do have a wild variety of animals, when you come across any wild animals it is best to keep a distance and let the animal be.

Any sudden movements will startle the animal.

Let the animals be.

GUY MIXED UP LANGUAGE, ASKS GF FOR ‘MOUTH’ IN FRONT OF HER PARENTS

GUY MIXED UP LANGUAGE, ASKS GF FOR ‘MOUTH’ IN FRONT OF HER PARENTS

A guy shared a story about how he mixed up the languages and did not pronounce what he had intended to correctly in front of his girlfriend’s parents which led to him saying something of a total different meaning.

He adds that he had the intention of asking his girlfriend to play games while he was over at her place but ended up asking her for some ‘mouth action’ instead because of the mixed up of words.

Here is the story

“I was over at my girlfriend’s place for dinner one night at the invitation of her parents who wanted to get to know me.

We have been dating for a couple of months and I have yet to meet her parents as they were also busy with running their own business and did not really have the time for social interactions outside of their work schedule.

Let me clarify a few things first before I continue the story.

  1. My girlfriend is Filipino and sometimes they tend to reverse a word instead of saying it normally.
  2. The Filipino translation for the word “play” as in to play games is “laro”.

With those two pointed out, you might already have an idea where this thing is going.

I’m having dinner with my girlfriend’s family and her siblings and parents were on the table and I was invited over for dinner today because we’re supposed to have met long ago instead and this was quite belated.

After eating, I invited her to play games and unconsciously said “tara, oral” which roughly translates to “come on, oral” although I meant to invite her to play games.

The moment I realized what I said, I immediately followed up with the name of the game I want us to play.

Her parents hasn’t talked to me yet ever since then and one of her siblings is always giving me funny stares.”

GUY TELL GF THAT SHE STINKS WHEN IT IS ACTUALLY HIS OWN FARTS

GUY TELL GF THAT SHE STINKS WHEN IT IS ACTUALLY HIS OWN FARTS

A guy shared a story of how he accused his girlfriend of being smelly one day when the actual stench came from his own farts.

He had been eating a lot of onions and garlics the day before and because of that has been letting out a lot of gas.

He was with his girlfriend and there was a stench in the air from his lightly released gas and decided to put it on her and he told her that she is smelly resulting in her being hurt by his words.

Here is the story

“First off, I absolutely adore my girlfriend and would never purposely hurt her feelings. Secondly, I’m an idiot.

Whenever I eat onions or garlic or any strong smelling food, I let go of those smells through my farts. I just so happened to have eaten a rather large quantity of onions and garlics yesterday and the day before and have yet to experience the subsequent non stop farts which is not normal.

Cut to this morning and I’m waking up for work with my girlfriend beside me. I think she’s the finest creature on this planet and I make sure to tell her that as often as I can.

I farted at that moment and I thought to myself how awful I smell. So, as I am in the process of adorning my girlfriend with wonderful compliments, I am also thinking to myself of how my nostrils are suffering. I try to say, “You’re so cute.” But, I’m thinking, “You smell bad.”

Now, I’m sure you can predict, since it is established I’m an idiot, I decided to put the blame of the stench onto her. I looked into my girlfriend’s loving eyes with my own eyes filled with the same love and said, “You’re so stinky.”

In my mind, I said exactly what I meant to say. But in reality, I hurt my lover’s feelings and planted a seed of insecurity.

Unknowing to me, she had also smelled my farts but assumed it was her and she apologised for smelling bad.

In the end the matter was resolved with me expressing remorse and explaining how I had screwed up by putting the blame on her.”
