Been There, Done That
Heard some people complaining about you-know-who again at Kelvin's birthday party last Saturday.
All I have to say is,
Been there, done that.
Someone got ticked off for DYE-ing his hair. Oh please, when will this stupid conservative society ever wake up to the calls of fashion, technology and advancement?
You don't want to dye your hair, fine. That's your choice. We respect your choice. But don't expect others to not dye their hair just because you're not a fan of hair dyes. We respect your choice, but you can't respect ours 'coz you're older and 'wiser'? Oh come on. It's our perogative. Grow up and get a life.
Singapore is a democracy. People have choices. DYE-ing of hair is not a crime.
Enjoy having a say in what others say or do (in other words, a dictator)? Then go live in Vietnam or China or one of the communist countries. There, you can dictate many things.
Also heard that someone got ticked off for being "bold". Well, boldness is good. Gutlessness won't get you anywhere in life. Sometimes, there is no need to answer certain questions because talking or explaining your position to you-know-who would be a waste of time anyway.
Someone also got very worried because he was not supposed to be at Kelvin's party. He had told you-know-who that he needed to study. Actually, whatever. As long as your parents have granted you permission to come, I think he is in NO position to question their decision. So just say hi to him in his face if you see him.
Seriously, the only reason people gives him empty promises is, he pressurizes people into saying YES when people have no intention of saying YES. In the end, people don't deliver their promises and he chides them. But isn't he the one who pressurizes people into agreement against their wishes in the first place?
Heard that they are considering whether or not to renew Pastor Peter's contract too. Even if they do not renew Pastor Peter's contract, I'm sure there's a better place for him. Somewhere that doesn't treat him as second-class. Somewhere that gives him due respect. It's just not quite happening here, is it?
Come on, injustice, bring it to my ears and I will clarify matters to your face.
