MERCEDES DRIVER ROAD RAGE, PUNCHED AUDI DRIVER THROUGH WINDOW

A video emerged online showing a road rage incident involving a Mercedes driver and an Audi driver, with punches being thrown.

The Mercedes driver wanted the Audi driver and the camcar driver to reverse so that he could turn into his residence.

The Mercedes driver then went to the window of the Audi and confronted the driver, and the two appeared to be having a heated argument (there is no audio from the dashcam footage).

The Mercedes driver then threw a punch at the Audi driver before walking off to confront the camcar driver.

Here is the OP’s statement:

“Posting as video witness to road rage incident, driver of SLC3693Y white Mercedes punched driver of SKU4878S white Audi.

Mercedes driver want camcar and Audi driver to reverse so that he can turn into his residence, but there is no yellow box and we have the right of way too. We didn’t comply so he punch the owner of the white Audi, and later approach me too.

Hope this video help the owner of the white Audi and hope he is alright, and kudos to him for not retaliating.”

MOTHER USE CHILD AS “SHIELD” FROM WATER SPLASH AT ZOO

Going to the zoo always seems to be full of fun memories of families and friends. But one kid might not have the best of memories.

At a sea lion show, the animal was splashing water while doing performances in front of a crowd. With sea creatures, we would definitely see some water getting splashed.

Just before a huge splash, a mother at the front row was seen using her child as an umbrella to block off any water.

Seems like keeping her face dry might have caused all her “face” as a mother to be “washed off”.

The actions of the mother have been captured on video and uploaded on social media and many netizens laugh at the mother’s action while some took it negatively.

The video was captioned with the text “Mother of the year”.

Here is the full video:

HUSBAND TELLS WIFE IT IS OKAY IF SHE CHEATS ON HIM

0

A story emerged online about a wife complaining about her husband telling her time and time again that it is okay if she cheats on him and he does not mind.

She mentions that he will say this to her from time to time and because of that, they do not have much of a private life as the mood is always ruined.

She thinks that it is because his exes have always cheated on him and therefore he is insecure even when she assures him that she loves him and will never do that to him.

Here is the story

“My husband and I, we’ve been married for two years. He has been cheated on before in his past relationships and it crushed him.

I don’t cheat and never will.

He will randomly say “oh I’d understand if you did and It’s okay if you cheated/left me” time and time again.

I know 100% he’s not cheating on me. I am extremely sure he loves me.

All his exes have left him in the past and it sort of left a memory on him.

I tried to assure him that I will never treat him like how his exes have treated him and that I love him wholeheartedly but he will always brush me off with a “don’t say it too early”.

As a result of his insecurity, our private life is as good as non-existent or even dead.

We’re both 30.

I think he’s just insecure and doesn’t mean to be like this but it really gets on my nerves sometimes.”

OFFICE WORKER OVERWHELMED AT WORK, TOOK LEAVE JUST TO CLEAR WORK

0

An officer worker shared how nobody wanted to join her industry in healthcare and she is left overworked and even had to take leave just to finish up her work.

Here is the story:

“For any fresh grads that just entered the healthcare industry, be it frontline, backend or admin, are y’all regretting it?

I work in a very established hospital (guess which one) as an executive under a programme and it’s driving me crazy.

In the beginning everything was fine. Nice bosses, adaptable working environment and scope. Yet as the time went by, more and more things started to happen. More portfolios, responsibilities started to get thrown at us.

The bosses recognised this change and wanted to hire more people, but there’s just no one out there wanting to get into the department.

Now we often find ourselves drowning in work, working OT until 10 pm, even on weekends I would just turn on my laptop and just work because I’m scared that next week will have new things that will wreak havoc with my work schedule.

I know I shouldn’t be complaining because I’m not a frontline staff that deals with crude members of public, but to be honest, I’m tired.

I don’t know how long I can take this OTs and weekend slogs. It came to the point where I took leave to clear work.

This shouldn’t be happening, but it happened. Help.”

Editor’s note: If it is becoming too much, no shame in resigning and switching careers.

GIRL IS GLAD SHE’S SINGLE, SAYS IT’S “SHIOK” THAT SHE CAN DO WHATEVER SHE WANTS

0

A girlshared how glad she feels being single, describing it as being “shook” because she can go whatever she wants.

Here is the story:

“I feel damn glad that I am single. I’m not the romantic type, romance means nothing to me. I don’t feel moved by romantic movies or songs. I don’t enjoy company, because I don’t like talking.

I don’t know why people are so desperate to be in a relationship. Single damn shiok ok. I can come home whatever time I want and not have to tell anyone why I’m home late or early.

Aircon temp can set whatever I want. TV can watch whatever I want. I can hog the whole queen size bed to myself and no need to listen to other people snoring at night. Music can play whatever I want.

No kids to spend money on so I can treat myself to what I want. I don’t want children, have no maternal instincts and they are expensive.

Don’t need to remember anniversaries or whatever stupid date. Chinese New year can receive angpow. No in laws to deal with. What’s not to like?

Some people say old already no one take care but even if you are in a relationship doesn’t gurantee you won’t be alone when you’re old.

Come join me la and stop whining about your relationship woes. Why inflict so much pain on yourself? Go end everything and have a drink and forget your troubles. Problem solved.

Don’t be ashamed of being single. Not everyone needs a partner, some people are just better off alone.”

Editor’s note: Surely something is wrong if you have to write such a long post to justify yourself being single.
