Pretty dodgey topic. But sometimes our so called fine city has been seriously over-infiltrated by foreigners. Not that they are taking holidays, but those who earn a living here. It's nice wages here as compared to the peanut shells they earn back in their rural regions; I actually have totally nothing against that. In fact, thanks to them as they were the ones who built the new shopping centers, offices, all those construction stuff. But what happens after they knock off is what bothers me. Their rowdy tones, their intolerable pungent BO. That's still not that bad. Its their inconsiderate behavior that got me a little pissed off today.
Not that I want to discriminate intentionally, I actually never meant to. Both June & me has some nice foreign friends, and they would be the better examples or impressions left to us. However, some of them display some bad attitude or inconsiderate behavior.
Coincidentally today, I went to catch a movie with my dear June; Harold & Kumar - Escape from Guantanamo Bay. Its a movie with lots of racist jokes, but god damn funny. One villain from the movie is one such racist, & very over-rated. I was kind of telling myself I can't be that bad. I really am not. But there comes my day's main spoiler.
After the movie, we decided to head home. But thinking on the time of the day 7pm plus, the trains will be packed like hell, so we agreed to take a supposedly joyride on a bus home. It was however, not quite we have imagined. It was far more packed than the train normally would. Pardon me, here comes my racism; It was packed with Bangladeshi & Chinese (I mean Chinese nationals from Cheena... China... or some would call them PRC's) workers. Kind of a turn off.
I was stuck at near the door way by one particular PRC man. Not the typical kind, but those from native china villages, if you know what I mean. He has very dark skin, a bit reddish probably due to exposure to lots of sunlight & reeks of alcohol. There the grumpy but polite bus driver is yelling at us to move in so the other passengers can get on, but that PRC man just wouldn't budge. Past 3 stops after I got on & stuck, I became pissed & told the PRC man to excuse me to pass. He ddin't even god damn budge. From his flaccid posture, he just tucked in his stupid tummy in by barely an inch, and expects that I can pass through. Feeling a bit dumb talking to an even dumber man, I mumbled, "You think I can get past like that?" I definitely, do not want to brush past him violently, absorbing his sweat, dirt, & disgusting odour. Even if I don't mind, its not going to be nice for my girlfriend to brush past him like that. Maybe I think too much, but I suspect he stood there intentionally to get fresh with the women on bus.
The overloading bus came to the next stop, & the driver once again prompted us to squeeze further in the bus. There the PRC man stands there like a chunk of rock. I can almost visualize him leaning there & whistling, pretending not to know anything. Now I lost my patience & gestured very clearly for him to move his f**king arse. He then replied in a terrible manner, as if its my fault to be too fat that I can't pass through, "You want to move you move la", in his native chinese, as if he's totally not in my way. Little did he know his ignorant words, blazed me aflame.
"Do you think I don't want to get through? You are totally blocking my way." I retorted him aloud, making sure the surrounding people hears his shame. Bitchy as I can be sometimes, I really brushed past him violently, intentionally crushing him a bit as I'm adjacent to his protruding tummy. Once I cleared him out, I turned around & extended my hand to June, to ferry her over, past the route I opened out.
As if one isn't enough, another one of these buggers parked himself happily in the middle of the staircase, restricting access to the upper deck. How in the world are we supposed to acrobatically attempt to bypass that birdbrain perched in the middle of the narrow passage of a moving bus?
Don't they understand that this is Singapore? You can't overpack a vehicle here. You can't just cling to the door or rooftop, or hang halfway out from a window like in your country? Even if they can, please attempt to do so at your risk, do not put us in danger by expecting us to do so. We are just working humans, not trained monkeys.
Aside from my frustration at these kind of parasites, I was actually meant to do a short little review on the wonderful comedy I caught with June today. They dampened my after-mood anyway. Just make sure you catch the movie, Harold & Kumar - Escape from Guantanamo Bay. Lots of senseless laughter and enjoyment. But take note its an M18 movie, it does contain images of naked boobs & brazilian-waxed pussies. But please, its only meant for humor, not erotic arousal. its only crude, not pornographic. No female sexual genitals were shown. If you are still interested, catch it soon, think its going off the theatres soon & trust me, its not likely or easy to find this movie on DVD.
My Rating: 4.5 out of 5 Stars
