My 2 cents worth....

Singapore emphasizing on an elitist' society? (Where do you stand?!)
Cases of dengue fever up? (Didn't somebody just do the cleaning up?!)
People have to reminded by a campaign to say "Please" and "Thank you" more often?! (And please, if you stepped on my foot, its polite manners to say "Sorry" instead of glaring at me.)
There's gonna be a package to offset the up and rising Goods and Service Tax? (7% is a lot, man..))
Locals try their best to skip shopping on certain days when one gotta pay for the plastic carrier bags the retailers give? (Do they save alot on that?!)
F1 is a big deal coz the path marked out, has been tried out by the Bengs and Sengs in their loud colorful spray-painted cars, not to mention the ear shattering music bursting out from their speakers. (a ala Tokyo Drift wannabes)
Cases of drink driving accidents up? (If you drink, don't drive..)
And drink driving and hit and run after that... (if you drive, don't be caught by anyone especially ...)
And if you are a prominant figure in public, (aka we see your face on TV) it's best to accept fate and hope your case will be like Paris Hilton, "slugging" out in a comfortable cell with all entertainment provided.
Residents fighting over en bloc sales? (Ho ho ho....)
"Dirrty" Christina Aguilera's coming?! And her tix cost a fishing bomb! (She's not like U2 right?!)
The pastry with a hole is making us queue at Raffles City for hours... (whoever said we are not patient is so wrong, I had seen some locals queued for 3 hours just to buy 2 doughnuts..)
The Arts Festival starts on 25 May, let's have some culture okies?!
Did I mention the Singapore Great Sale has started too?! Let's have some manners not to fight over that last pair of Prada slingbacks okies?!
Singaporeans are the fastest walkers, according to a survey... Mmm, were they doing the survey during lunchtime when all people are rushing to fill stomachs?! Or were there freebies given out round the corner?
Talking about food, it's a norm to use tissue packets to stake your territorial seats before you walk away to order your delicious char kway teow. (And don't pretend you did not see my packet of tissue!)
