This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Singapore just keeps making up new reasons for me to love it.

Well, except for the chewing gum by prescription only bit.

Honestly I don't care about that. There are other things to chew on. I'm more unhappy about male homosexuality being illegal.

I wasn't even aware of that. Of course, I went to Singapore once nearly 20 years ago. It was a nice place, but the laws felt oppressive.
