Err, actually, "you go check out" is erroneous.Originally posted by Dorian-X:My command of english is definitely better than that of the majority of the forumnites here.You go check out my threads,the language used is fluent and grammatically sound.
And pls check if "grammatically sound" should be used, I'm not sure, but it sounds wierd.. -

yo kiddy,since you are not Singaporean,you are an alien.Check the dictionary,the word 'alien' has a number of meanings.Originally posted by HystericalDustdevil:yo kiddy...I'm no alien, gay..don't have aids nor intellectually disabled...I'm not singaporean u dummy...even if I'm a singaporean..no one can ever force me to do the thing that I dun wanna do...so...please watch ur mouth next time when u speak..coz I dunno wat I'll do when I gone crazy...

No, I'm not saying that u have to speak american or brititish english, all i'm saying that it's a turn off!! I'm just voicing my opinion so don't slag me for it, everyone it entitled to one. And I asked my JV friends about it, and they agree with me. I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with all of you, only that there is a communication barrier, if u get what i mean.Originally posted by HystericalDustdevil:yo smart ass....let me ask u someth...wat race r u??proper english wo....KISS my ***!!so ur proper english is refering to american style or british one huh??ya??studying in international sch...so wat??we poly student also dun like to make frenz with the kind of person like u...plz...do u have a mirror at home??if dun...pee on the floor n look at it..
and no offense, but i did not say anything about u, nor insult u, yet u have to resort to saying "do u have a mirror?" how civilised is that? sheesh.. grow up!! learn to take criticism with a pinch of salt..
and for your information, i have nothing against poly students, i was just voicing my opinion. One of my best friends happens to be from ngee ann polytechnic.
and, it is a bit hard to understand what some people are trying to say.. especially when its not grammatically sound. that's all i was trying to get at. so pls dont resort to personal insults. -
Please..let me make myself clear here...It's not that the people here have a poor command of english.In every minutes and every seconds of your life, if you're always that serious, you're really one damn boring guy..no offence here..and just for your information,you yourself mentioned in the last post that you don't have a poly friend because of their poor command of english..Just bear in mind that there's always someone who's better than you in this world...grow up man!!you're too arrogant..this little earth of ours here does not have enough space for the kind of people like you...and I'm just trying to be kind to you...that's why I ask whether you have a mirror at home..that's just to remind you to look after your own attitude,because I believe that you have a serious attitude problem obstructing you to be more mature...when you're in one different country,you RESPECT and you try to fit yourself in it...that's how human live..and that's how human survive for eons!!Originally posted by summerain22:No, I'm not saying that u have to speak american or brititish english, all i'm saying that it's a turn off!!

Ok, i've been reading a few posts and I just couldn't help but add something. A lot of people have been complaining that JC people are proud and stuck-up. I don't think that's the case, I think the only reason why some feel that way is that they feel intimidated by the fact that they can actually speak decent english!! There is a communication barrier between them because MOST people speak chinese or chinese mixed with english in polys. And I'm not defending them cos I'm in a JC, I'm actually from an international school.
If you read the replies, it's soo hard to find one that has correct grammar!! They type exactly like how they speak, and its such a turn off when a guy can't even get a proper english sentence out of his mouth!! That's my opinion anyway. [b]I don't hang out with people from a poly because of this, but i do have a few friends from JC. We just don't speak the same language. I really cannot stand their so-called 'singlish'. It's not impressive at all and sounds terrible.

WHat has speaking proper english got to do with being serious? Completely nothing. It's just a way of life, there's no connection at all. I don't mean it like you have to constantly remind yourself to speak proper english, just be yourself!! And i'm saying that the way some people talk just annoys me, that's all, because it's really ahrd to understand. And yes, generally I don't have friends from polys, only this one guy because i've known him for ages. I have nothing against them get it?Originally posted by HystericalDustdevil:Please..let me make myself clear here...It's not that the people here have a poor command of english.In every minutes and every seconds of your life, if you're always that serious, you're really one damn boring guy..no offence here..and just for your information,you yourself mentioned in the last post that you don't have a poly friend because of their poor command of english..Just bear in mind that there's always someone who's better than you in this world...grow up man!!you're too arrogant..this little earth of ours here does not have enough space for the kind of people like you...and I'm just trying to be kind to you...that's why I ask whether you have a mirror at home..that's just to remind you to look after your own attitude,because I believe that you have a serious attitude problem obstructing you to be more mature...when you're in one different country,you RESPECT and you try to fit yourself in it...that's how human live..and that's how human survive for eons!!
And no, I don't think i have any maturing to do, that's just my opinion, so you stick to yours and i'll stick to mine. I do respect the people in singapore, all i mean is that i find it hard to understand what some people are trying to say!! is that so wrong?! if u want to talk about sterotyping, then poly people are doing it as well, cos they're labelling all JC students as 'stuck-up'. they're not stuck up, they're just different, they speak differently, etc. -
Are you implying that JC people are unfriendly? Fine, think that way if you like, u can carry on living in your little world. You may think i'm arrogant, so be it, it doesn't affect me at all. I was just saying what i felt, sheesh!!Originally posted by HystericalDustdevil:These are why people...I mean most people prefer to have a poly guy as a friend...not because of decent english or whatever you're trying to imply that you're better in,it's because we're friendly...and more easy to get along with...admit it pal...being arrogant has no benefits...and don't you ever try to deny that you are arrogant...because from what you've written here...at least I found it stink!! -

excuse me...not all the poly student thinks that the jc peoples are 'stuck up'...having this topic is to do some sort of a survey whether most people perfer what type of guys as friends...that depends on the real life experience one has...huh...you are one big piece of hard rock...that means stuborn, just for your information..so if you respect the people here in singapore..then you should also respect their culture and them for what they are...what makes singaporean different from others is their singlish..so if you can't stand it...buzz off and mind your own business...the usage of grammar or any @#$%ing things here has nothing to do with you,has it??If you really can't stand it...just don't visit this web page....I'm out of words already...because you're one stuborn donkey!!fine...I won't want to die earlier and kill all my brain cells wasting time on the kind of uncivilized moron like you...Originally posted by summerain22:WHat has speaking proper english got to do with being serious?

I don't understand why Poly guys dun like JC pple....
Hmm...
Poly pple think they are more funky?? Oh really, never heard of that... I know more of them have ear rings and coloured hair, smoke... Speak singlish.. Fun?? Maybe...
Aiyah, in the end girls still go for suave guy, good looking, gentlemenly, preferably well to do... -
More Mature, slightly... at least they think about their future.. Cos jc guys got time in their army to think...
But in other sense I think they're the same.. -

Just because i don't agree with u does not mean i'm stubborn. Don't be so ignorant. And yes, i do respect the people, and i know that singaporeans are identified by their singlish. Just so you know, i went to the UK once and someone asked me where i'm from. I said 'singapore'. And he went "Ooohh so you speak the donkey english." I was like,"what do you mean?!?!" and he said,"They sound like donkeys, they are always like 'har' and 'hor'.." I was soo emabarrssed to hear that that is what they think of singlish!! It's so uncivilised!! So you guys can just carry on..Originally posted by HystericalDustdevil:excuse me...not all the poly student thinks that the jc peoples are 'stuck up'...having this topic is to do some sort of a survey whether most people perfer what type of guys as friends...that depends on the real life experience one has...huh...you are one big piece of hard rock...that means stuborn, just for your information..so if you respect the people here in singapore..then you should also respect their culture and them for what they are...what makes singaporean different from others is their singlish..so if you can't stand it...buzz off and mind your own business...the usage of grammar or any @#$%ing things here has nothing to do with you,has it??If you really can't stand it...just don't visit this web page....I'm out of words already...because you're one stuborn donkey!!fine...I won't want to die earlier and kill all my brain cells wasting time on the kind of uncivilized moron like you...
U asking me not to visit the page juz because of the grammar? Well, MOST singaporeans speak like this not just the people on here.
Hmmm.. u must be really pathetic to resorting to personal insults.. u call me a stubborn donkey.. well.. like what i said above.. ppl think singaporeans speak donkey english..
And why are you guys so proud of singlish when your own government isn't?! the singaporean government has been encouraging ppl to speak correctly, that's the reason why Phua chu kang was taken off air a while ago remember? And then they started showing it again, but with better english.
yes, i know what the purpose of this topic was for, and i just wanted to give my opinion on JC and poly guys, cos quite a few ppl were sayong that they thought that JC guys are stuck up. Oh well. -
well i totally agreed with u...not becoz i wa from poly k....Originally posted by IamAngeline:Seriously I prefer Poly guys? Y?
Cos I find Poly guys tend to be more mature than those JCs~
What do u think?~
well...cureently serving my ns...
and i really hate JC guys...
majority of them cannot work, always keng and talk alot...
immature...true...
no hard feelings k... -

oh dear..i din know our govt wans us 2 speak proper english..ok no problem, from now on i wil watch my language..i must b a good boy n obey my govt.. -
See, it's things like this that pisses me off!! What an ignorant remark.. stereotyping everyone.. geez...Originally posted by antoh:jc students are f**ked up -
come on.. everyone is entitled to their own opinions... and in this kind of forums agreeing to disagree will surely do alot to lessen the flaming and all that that has been happening. people really have to learn to tolerate and respect other people's views no matter how different they may be. we can stand up for what we believe in, but putting others down in the process and hurling insults does not help at all.
that said, perhaps we can try to examine why people bear such mindsets and stereotypes? its really got to do with environment and age. language as well as some has pointed out. but in the end, when you are older and working perhaps when you are 20 odd 30 years old, does anyone care whether you came from jc or poly or private institution? your employers will only be interested in your performance and work attitude. and that is about everything we need to contend with for the rest of our lives, not whether we received jc or poly education.
i was from a jc 8 years old, but circumstances are that i went to ns, and from bmt all the way to i ord, i was with poly guys and i worked with poly guys. in fact i was the only recruit and only cadet with a jc background then. but i had no trouble with my frens. and they have no trouble with me at all too, even in the beginning. i have ord already and we are still good friends and we meet up quite frequently too.
so at the end of the day, does it matter where you came from? if you are a nice person, does it matter whether you came from a jc or a poly? of course that applies too if you are a rotten egg. these are all for the people around you to judge. where you came from shouldnt affect how you see others and how others see you right?
so perhaps we can all try to ask ourselves why we harbour such thoughts about jc or poly people. ask yourself rationally and maybe you will realise you were making unfair generalisations about them.
so perhaps we can all stop the flaming here? its sad that alot of good topics end up with flames thrown all about and the original idea and intention of the topic was totally lost.
simmer down guys! why lose temper and kill brain cells like this?

Agreed. It doesn't matter whether you come out of poly or JC.

You can't blame the top JCs student to be arrogant because they are being brought up that way. And not all JC students are arrogant or having some type of attitude problems. I'm from a local JC but i wasn't been label as one who has attitude problems. Place your target wisely for those who kept their cynical remarks against the JCs. Sometimes, it really set me thinking, was it out of jealousy that these remarks emerged?
Is it true that JC students mean that polytechnical graduate, although earn more pay, are inferior that the A level graduate? Going to a JC is a stepping stone to a university degree with the traditional education pathway and its no big deal, or rather having a diploma or A level cert proves nothing. It does not clearly different your superiority over another. -
anyway can i join ? haahahah
