and there were 3 of them…

and there were 3 of them...

My wife and I were at Yakun, Parkway Parade, earlier this afternoon, and we had the luxury of meeting the above 3 very unique exhibits.

Exhibit A: Man in a kid’s size black t-shirt
The best way to describe him is to share this conversation I had with him whilst waiting for my wife to arrive.

Him: How many friends do you have coming?
Me (realising he probably wants a seat): You may have the other seat.
Him: So you only have one friend coming?
Me (very amused): Yes, and you may have the other seat.
Him (grabbing the seat): Ok.

Me, very annoyed by his lack of a thank you. But at least he wasn’t as bad as Exhibit B.

Exhibit B: Woman in an adult’s size (but still too small) gray dress
Whilst a lady had her back facing against Exhibit B as she was tending to her baby, the latter swiftly grabbed a seat from the oblivious lady. Without asking.

Exhibit C: Woman-wannabie teenage girl in a girly pink dress and black bra
Someone needs to tell this little teenage girl that tube tops were invented for a reason - to conceal your damn black bra should you wear a skimpy dress that acts like a second skin. Revealing your ugly bra from under your arm pits is far from sexy. Even Annabelle Chong can do better. And listen, VPL is completely unacceptable. I cannot believe you didn’t wear a thong with that body-hugging dress.

I’m glad I do not know these exhibits.

    MeL, spitting is too uncivilised and expensive (the fine) for the Helen Millen in me.

    The guy didn’t say thanks to you for the chair.
    But did you seek permission from the 3 of them before you snapped their shot and displayed it so publicly?

    Hi Girl, no I didn’t. Given the experience, nope sorry, I don’t feel bad.

    To sidetrack a little, try finding the courage to include your real email address the next time. I’m open to criticisms, and I welcome it wholeheartedly. Don’t worry, I don’t bite. :)

Say something.
