Night Owl Chatterboxes - Part XLV!

another hilarious extract:
While it is not suprising to see anti-establishment postings on the online forums and blogs on Singapore, it is a tad odd when the criticism is directed at an underdog like WP.
After PM Lee announced the CPF changes in his NDP Rally speech in August, forum postings wondered why the WP-known by its party logo, the Hammer - was so quiet.
“Does it agree or disgree with the PAP”, asked one, days after the Rally.
Another said: “An opposition party should be proactive and always take the initiative to counter the Government instead of lazing around waiting for things to happen.“
“Just look around at the spontaneous outpouring of views from forumers. If the WP cannot perform even up to the standard of these anonymous netizens, it should seriously consider de-registering itself as a political party.”
This idiot actually thinks that sitting in front of their PCs whining in the forums equals making things happen

Once my friend said she can and she brought us in the opposite direction in KL
Another time, I said it should be that way
But they said no no I"m wrong so I said fine if you girls insist
And apparently I was right and they walked in the opposite direction -

I went and memorised stuff like how many continents there are (dont comment pls)
and where they are located (dont comment again)
and how to find them on a map, etc...
then they hand me the what compass thing, asked me latitudes dunno what... i panicked... -

i was talking to a teacher that history should be linked to physical geography.. so that the students know why the people in history did what they had to do...
the teacher said that the last time someone tried that, the MOE put a halt to it..
i'm thinking, wtf?? -
Thought the biggest continent is america?
-
I know Canberra is the capitalOriginally posted by ShrodingersCat:one said perth.
the other said Europe is the biggest continent.
Erhmm but perth is like so far off
At least if they said Melbourne or Sydney it doesn't sound so bad
Errhmm isn't the biggest continent Asia? -

no.. bigger than that is the size of CSJ's ego.. it even has gravity.. mixed up with the sheer density of the skull of his supporters, it has a very strong gravitational field..
so strong that it's like a black hole... light bends into it...
which is why the bunch is very dim...
