When i was PK-ing earlier this week (half day PK), i encountered a very interesting sight which almost made me cringe and laugh at the same time.

Outisde my office there's this Goddess of Mercy temple, so every 15th i think of the month, its very busy with a lot of stall selling flowers. So this time when i was walking to the bus stop, I heard this very loud commotion. Initally i thought it was those sellers hawkering their wares, cookpots etc (ya there are also some of those in ard the temple area)

However, upon closer inspection it appeared to be 1 flower seller (an old fat Aunty) shouting at some person. Couldn't make out the person since it was very crowded. U know how Buddhist pple are, devoted. and during that period of the month it's always crowded. But i digress.

Anyway this old aunty was cursing like a sailor in chinese. words like CB TMD etc etc flowed out of her mouth. And she ended with the words: "careful when u cross the street!!! dun say i dun warn u" (translated from chinese) guo ma lu yao xiao xin. bia suo wo mei jing gao ni. (x2). That was after the person baited her by saying : "fat aunty, still dare scold so much vulgarity", not very sophisticated but it did the trick, the aunty's face went black.

I'm not sure if she noticed but her vulgar outburst drew chuckles from bystanders. (including me) . Did she know she was making a fool of herself? People who can't control their emotions always make fools of themselves. I guess it's easier for females to lose it since they are the more emotional sex.

If our courts of law or parliament were filled with people who can't control their emotions, why we would be just like politicians in Taiwan where it's so common for the "law makers and debaters" to take their shoes and throw it at people on PUBLIC TV.

Such easily emo-fied people or emo-ers should have never tried being politicians. I mean people were laughing and saying is this Taiwan's so called poltical system? it's a joke. Hell u dont see this in USA or Singapore.

No one's going to take u seriously if u anyhow scold vulgarities at a stranger. I wonder if that aunty knew what a fool she was making of herself.

She /He who makes a fool out of herself /himself ought to be pitied.

It's like in a fight. The person who loses his cool will have a higher chance of losing the fight. Imagine say a raving person vs a collected calm fighter. True, the lunatic might be stronge, anger increases str, but his attack will leave holes in his defences. The calm fighter can with patience and skill exploit that to swiftly slit the person's throat. GG.

"Throat and Groin. Protect your own, slash theirs! - Waylander to Dardalion in Waylander by David Gemmel

Of course i wouldn't use this in my arugments or essay writings. It's FICTION DUDES!!!!

But it does give u a clue on how to fight. After all i mean if u hit any of those 2 areas hard enough, the person will be dead or out of the fight (if u guys are interested in Davild Gemmel's books i;ve quite a few of them, pretty interesting reads. of course if u want my poems and proverbs books, haha u can also borrow them.) *awaits the oh fuck u victor! go and die lah) HAHAHAHA.

Arguments should be backed up by logic and evidence. That's why I admire Prof Tommy Koh. The way he represents Singapore in International law cases.....salute!

Today went to my brother's house to help baby sit / learn how to take care of the baby with my parents. (learning from my bro's wife's mom = bro's mom in law lol)BABY WAS WIDE AWAKE! AWWW...so cute.

More on that in the next update. SHE'S SO CUTE!
