A few weeks back, an earthquake kena our undersea telecommunications cables, and our net access went down. HereÂ’s a list of WHAT SINGAPOREANS DID WHEN THE INTERNET WAS DOWN:
1. Reset modem. Repeat. Then curse. Then stare into space. Then break down and cry in huge, heaving sobs when filled with a sense of aching emptiness.
2. SMS friends to check if their ISP is working.
3. Kept turning an hourglass over and over – manually.
4. Siam work early using the excuse of ‘boh pian’.
5. Open the curtains to check if anything has changed over the past year.
6. Reintroduced themselves to their family.
7. Actually had sex instead of surfing porn sites.
8. Deleted old porn to clear drive space for new porn when the Net comes back on.
9. Blame it on ‘the Gahmen’.
10. Got out of some frickinÂ’ atas teenage bloggerÂ’s elite, uncaring face.
11. You mean got something else to do, meh?
12. Think of retarded lists of what Singaporeans did when the Internet was down.
