Courtesy Driven Flu

A flu. 8hrs before i leave for bintan, and i contract a flu. Can you believe that. I need a drink. A hard, jarring swig of whisky. That oughta rattle the virus in me. Show the bug who's boss!

It was a rainy morning today. And as follows, the roads were jammed. Never fails. "Rain = Forget-how-to-drive" is the standing equation for 3/4s of the driving population out there. No don't bullshit me that it is a safety issue. If all these wankers, maintain the right distance, and let people get in and outta the lane without accelerating forward to prevent it, and of cos the over-cautious remain OUT of the fast lane, things will run just as normally as in any other day.

But nooooooo. It is way too much to ask. Common Sense and courtesy are not the Singaporean way. Especially Courtesy. We are a country, who needs a frickin cartoon lion, to tell us to be courteous. And thats only for 1 week in the year or something. Apart from that. Singaporeans in general, are a discourteous bunch.

Don't tell me about about the tourism polls or what not. That crap is all fabricated. Day to day, dealing with people, queuing up to buy food, waiting for a table, there's just a million examples. And i'll just frustrate myself listing them all out here. Some people, you just smile at them, wow, they look at you like you're crazy, and if you say thank you, they act as if they deserved it all along, and of "Excuse Me," is a phrase that was i think greatly obliterated from our curriculum.

We don't need a Courtesy Campaign in thise country. We need an Entire Revolution!
