Bad Habits

[116520]

ngohan8, I think about the escalator thing, it doesn't lay on human behavior but social behavior, I have seen Singaporeans automatically stand on the right of escalator in HK and Japan, on the other hand, these "rules" do not really applies here as our escalators here are not as crowded as countries like HK/Japan....

As for kids running around in public, I have kid too... so I understand how other parents feel... sometimes, we just no "air" to control them...

standing on the right side of escalator/travelator (but here abit opposite as other country practice "stand right, walk left")
act blur or sleep on the "reserve seat" in mrt (but sitting on these seat can be quite a predicament when one is tired)
letting children run amok in public area without supervision and not apologising when their little ones inconvenient others

1. Queue-cutting !
2. No reaction (impolite) from those whom you hold the
door for (as though they deserve it!)
3. Failing to signal intention to change lanes/turn, etc
while driving.
4. Stopping in the yellow box, blocking exiting vehicles.
5. Pointing the middle finger at you after committing a road offence (simply
BULLYING!).
6. PURPOSELY allowing the lift door to close knowing that you are fast
approaching.
7. Swinging car door open and wacking the next car
beside it !
8. Talking LOUDLY in public.
9. Pedestrian crossing road slowly knowing car
approaching !

Sorry louie, let me clarify this. I know education to many means academic achievement only but to me, it is not only that. An educated person in my dictionary refers to someone who has both brains and heart. For example I will not term a scholar 'educated' when he jump a queue or throw his burning cigarette butt out of the car.

i dont rob the tissue, i just put it aside i was told off by some bi*ch, who had reserve ONE seat, but unknown to me, no one allowed to sit with one seat from her. ie. one person three seats.... WTF. i just ignore and continue eating.

[feilong108]

hehehe..no ppl told me off before..mayb due to my image...lol.....normally they juz stare at me until i shot back my 'u wan to die ar' look to them

[darth-khips]

i have never encountered tissue reservations, though it seems prevalent. but reality is how does one expect to consume food, if after queuing to purchase, and cant find a seat? there must be some aletrnative to this, rather then be pissed off with the current practice

[feilong108]

how about eating while standing up???hahaha...

power... i should try and develop the same look

maybe i should start going around with a plastic bag and comb all the hawker centre during lunch hour....see tissue paper take tissue paper.....at the end of day....i can sell them for a profit and fund a new watch for myself.

lol.

or donate to the needy. Those uncle/aunty can give them and ask them to resell

I have to agree. Walking around with the noodles in your tray and walking around is annoying like hell. But we just wait around for empty tables, not reserving with tissue papers

how about eating while standing up???hahaha...

japanese style!! power!

[darth-khips]

better system could be the Marche system, whereby there is a reserved sign on the table.
