SOME F&B OUTLETS ONLY ALLOW 2 PAX DINING REGARDLESS OF VACCINATION STATUS

A woman posted on Facebook of notice by Kopitiam & NTUC Foodfare stating the establishment only allows groups of up to two fully vaccinated to eat at a particular outlet.

Outlet can have their own practices.

Although the rules allow up to 5, businesses may choose how they want to apply it. So the law says up to 5 fully vaccinated can dine together.

If Kopitiam chooses anything more than 5, that would be illegal. If they choose anything up to 5, it would be okay. They can even choose to not allow dining in until they deem it okay. This isn’t breaking the law.

The new regulations tell you what they can do, not what they must do.

SKINNY GUY CANNOT FIND GF, GIRLS KEEP THINKING HE GOT HEALTH PROBLEMS

A guy shared how he is really skinny and underweight, looking thin and gaunt.

He shared that he has never progressed beyond friendship with girls, with one girl telling him that he looks too sickly.

Another girl even thought that he had health problems.

Here is his story:

“Is it true that if most things are equal, girls will tend to pick the guy who is more athletic and look fitter in general?

I am not talking about those with huge muscles or 6 packs but those who look more sporty in general.

I am a guy who is underweight and looks thin and gaunt. Although I have no issues striking up conversations and being friends with girls, it never progressed beyond a friendship.

In fact, one girl whom I have confessed have told me I look too sickly and another said I don’t look nowhere near fit and is worried if I have any health problems.

Not that it has bothered me too much and I have always taken in my stride but I am beginning to worry if I’ll be able to attract girls this way and my age is creeping up.

I’d really like a girl to accept me for how I look but it seems many girls can’t look past the surface.

I accept myself for looking the way I am and I have no major health issues. I have several hobbies but I am not a sports person nor interested in gymming, weightlifting etc and I don’t really want to spend effort to do all these to reshape my body just to attract girls.

Can anyone advise what I should do?”

He said that “is ok ;ah to get fined $300 for cigg butt but not this (SIC)”.

Here is what he said:

“People wake up in the morning to the smoke and ashes in the house, on their car, and with all these lying around on the roads and pavements.

U want to do your offerings go ahead, we respect that but after that have some brain and be a human to clean it up lah.

Every single year this thing has been going on but did the government do anything about it?

With patches of grass being burnt, roadsides and under blocks full of their offering flying around.

Come on lah government, say we all singaporeans, then be equal with the rules and regulations lah.”

HOUGANG RESIDENT DUCT TAPE BOX OUTSIDE WINDOW, RESIDENT CALLS POLICE

A resident noticed a hazard hanging outside the window of a unit located a Hougang Avenue 1 Block 172 and feels that it’s dangerous.

The resident even reported it to the Police and HDB but claims that nothing has been done yet.

According to HDB, If they are convicted under the Penal Code for an offence relating to the throwing of killer litter, you are liable to a maximum jail term of 5 years or a fine, or both.

Netizen responds what the magical box is.

If you all don’t know just pls don’t see and judge immediately, the reason why he put that

1) have you all seen any red and white tape below? If they never put you can report is cause danger hazard, if they put nothing is wrong with it

2) the reason why they put is that they are hacking a hole and they don’t want the wall debris or waste to drop to the ground floor so they took a fan coil box to block the hole for the Aircon gas piping to be out to the condenser area.

3) personally I find that they are professional because in order not to let the debris fall and hit to the ground which causes more danger and causes hazards to the floor downstairs they are doing it well.

So please don’t just judge immediately just a box outside with all types of nonsense
