It's prof Chan's fault. He is trying to divert attention away from the Widjaja murder.:rolleyes:

No lah. My TV came in contact with the Allspark and became a Transformer.

It's a conspiracy! The Widjaja's employers purposely block their leave to prevent the truth from being revealed. The Prof, SG govt, Poodle force, NTU students, Forensic scientists and Mr Widjaja's boss are all in kahoots. :eek:

The moral of the story is to play less computer games and play more outdoor games. This way you don't get pwned by an uncle twice your age in a fight despite have the advantage of suprise and a weapon.

Agree completely. Unfortunately there are many conspiracy theorists and government bashers clinging onto this case. :( A cynical side of me wonders if they are trying to be the next Huang Na's mum. Gullible people are very genrous with donations after all.

COOS again?

It's all a psychological trick. How many guys actually have a favourite flower? Most likely he had subtlely hinted a flower to you. For example: "Do you have a favourite flower like the rose?" Or maybe there was a flowering plant around you that caught your attention. Actually humans...

If you watched the History Channel documentary, the students also don't know what they want. The whole thing started when students laying wreaths to Hu Yaobang discovered that PRC poodles were not doing anything to disperse them so the crowd started to grow. Eventually, the students decided...

I find that nowadays, people find it very hard to say sorry. This is especially true for the younger generation. When something cock up, there is always something or someone else to blame. Is it because people are very prideful nowadays so they cannot tolerate any loss of face? Maybe they...

SOP for showing concern to injured FT. 1 - FT will shout "I am an injured FT!" 2 - One yandao or chiobu (depends on FT preference) will cradle the FT and say "Sayang sayang" 3 - One peasant will find a banana leaf to fan the FT 4 - One peasant will knee down to cut and feed fruits...
