A man who was shopping in NTUC at Chinatown point realised that a product was expired.
But the product is stated as ‘best before’ meaning it’s not expired.
The product is dated BEST BEFORE 17-06-21
What is the difference between the “best before” and “expiry” dates?
Expiration dates inform customers when a product is no longer safe to eat. On the other hand, the best before date indicates that the food is no longer in excellent condition as of that date. Freshness, flavor, fragrance, and nutrition may all be lost.
After this date, the food will be safe to consume, but it may not be at its finest. Its flavor and texture may be inferior.
A video emerged online showing an Ah Lian openly vaping in front of SDAs conducting a spot check at the F&B premise that she was dining in, mistakenly thinking that they were the police.
She then vaped and said: “Nobody catch me! Nobody catch me!”
She added that because vaping falls under HSA’s jurisdiction, so they (the SDAs that she thought were the police) cannot do anything to her.
She then waved goodbye to the SDAs while holding up her vape.
She then said that she was gonna run for presidency and legalize drugs as her “first motion”.
According to Nparks, they are closely related to mongooses than they are to cats. In Singapore, the Common Palm Civet is one of the species of civet that can be seen. Civets are commonly known as ‘Musang’ in the Malay Language.
I had a crush on this girl who was in my clique. However, she turned me down because I was not her type. I am you average normal guy except I am very smart academically.
We usually studied together as a group and I helped everyone. She later went on to date this rich and handsome guy. Since then, she started appearing lesser in our clique meetings and for lessons as well. However, she would message me for lecture/tutorial notes because my notes were well organised and useful.
I felt as though I was being used a little but I just said to myself that I am just helping as a friend. Then, there were also some disturbing signs that she was being physically abused. We tried to talk to her about it but she refused to talk about it.
Once, we confronted her boyfriend about this and she started scolding and raging at us instead. We stopped pursuing it and just focused on studying together. I saw her crying once and just sat with her. We did not really talk much but I was just there for her. This happened a few times and sometimes, she would call me just be with her.
She did not call the others because they were fed up with her attitude. I was the “nice” guy. I never understood why she picked such an abusive guy over me. The worst part was that she stayed in the relationship despite the abuse which made me so darn confused.
The toxic relationship became worse and to a point where he was blackmailing her. She was already at her limit. She called me to be with her but this time, I had an interview for my dream company. She knew I had this interview but she was so distressed and was suicidal. I had a choice. I had prepared for this interview for the past month and had already gone through 2 intense rounds.
I could go for the interview and hear on the news that my friend committed suicide. So, I told the interviewer that I could not attend the interview and they said that I would be dropped which I had to accept.
I went to her and convinced her not to do anything stupid. It took a while but their relationship was resolved (not going to go through the details here). I was there to support and actually did quite a bit of fair things to get it resolved like talking to lawyers and stuff. I did not go for internship that summer because of this. Then, we got together, married and lived happily ever after. The end. Ok the last line did not happen because this is not the movies, it is real life.
She had to recover from the past relationship which took her months of therapy. I did help her along the way. I knew in my heart that we would not get together. I did not do it to make her fall in love with me. I just did it as a friend. I pained me to see her like that state.
She was the prettiest girl in my course and she had such an upbeat personality before the relationship. After a while, she slowly started to reply my messages after a few days. She did not talk as much to me as before. I felt as though we were growing apart. We stopped meeting and when I asked to meet, she would say that she is busy or not reply.
Due to the situation in SG, our lessons became online so we don’t see each other physically that much. Then, I found out that she got into another relationship. This time another rich and handsome guy.
Although this guy was not physically abusive, he was obnoxious and controlled her. I guess he was not that bad. I found this out through a mutual friend accidentally. I guess that is her type. I felt so bad, not because she did not choose me this time but because I felt used.
She did not tell me about her new relationship. I gave up my dream internship and so much of my time for her and she did nothing for me. She still asked me for my notes right before the exams. Half my mind was just to ignore her message and delete/block her number. I just ignored the message because I was pissed.
However, I felt bad and guilty as though I am doing something wrong instead. In my heart, I felt really bad as days went by. In the end, I did what my heart told me and sent the notes. What do I do here? I knew ignoring her was the right action but my heart kept on pestering me. I don’t know how to proceed here. The worst thing that could happen is that she calls me to support her again when her boyfriend sends her into an emotional downfall.
I know I want to ignore it but I know my heart will make me go and help her. Any advice here?
A man took a bank loan to buy a sports car he was confident that he could repay the loan but it was the start of his nightmares.
I used to think that buying a sports car is very important because it’s not only a symbol of money it is a symbol of authority and by owning a sports car I thought I could be an authoritative figure showing to people that I’m rich and powerful and I’m a man that stands out among other men out there
But unfortunately getting a loan is easy paying back a loan is difficult I was confident of to buy the car after getting a raise last month my boss increase my salary from $4,000 to $6,000
After I found out about my increase. I went to sgCarMart to look for a new car, Before this, I was driving a simple Kia but I could manage my monthly instalments easily and I will still have some money to spare. I saw a listing for Mercedes-Benz SLK so I decided that it’s time and I want something sporty. But this was the dumbest decision of my life I bought an SLK the only have less than two years of COE left, to be exact about 1 year 6 months.
The car cost almost $95,000 and I made a down payment of almost $30,000, the instalment of the car was almost $3,800 as I took a maximum 70% loan. During the first two weeks of driving the car, I was so proud, my colleagues praise me for the cool car and I started to have more female friends asking me out for dinner but they obviously are gold diggers the flocked to me like pigeons.
But on the third week of owning the car, the car started to break down and the person who sold the car said that he’s not responsible as the car is no longer under his name he said that as the car has more than 3 owners, no one would dare give me a warranty for the car.
So I had no choice but to tow it to a workshop and the mechanic told me that the cost to repair the car will be around $6,000 I was shocked! As the repair fee is my full 1-month salary.
I had no choice but to take up another loan for the car. Meaning now I have to pay back two loans instead of 1. So now every month I have to pay the bank a loan amount of $3,800 and another $600 to the workshop.
My fiance found out about it and called off the wedding and she felt that she did not need up a guy that could not manage expenses and I will be even worse if I become a father one day
what should I do should I sell the car but i will lose more money.
