Five Reasons why Shanghai rocks
Five Reasons why Shanghai rocks (and Singapore doesn't)...
1. is when you wave at an empty cab in a busy street in Shanghai, it actually stops. Amazing!
2. is the joy from not having to see yet another sad poser in a Starbucks or cafe hunched over an iBook or some Mac notebook pretending to type when they are actually viewing porn or doing nothing. Are these things the new phallic symbols? Is this dick-stroking in public?
3. is discovering that the public toilets in Shanghai can be cleaner than Singapore! Oh dear, Asian toilets, surely, an atrocity of sorts...
4. is not having to see another loser who insist on displaying their iPod ostentatiously like some medal for courage. C'mon, it's not cleavage or a buttcrack or jewellery. You don't have to display your materialistic tendencies, we know you have got money to buy electronic trinkets, so, what the fuck? Sadly, it may be a matter of time before the Shanghainese adopt this odious practice (if they are not already overrun by odious iPod-toting Singaporeans). Ewww..
5. is the relief from hearing any fucktards speaking in Singlish. Phew!

(2) Aren't Macs traditionally superior for those in the graphics design industry? And porn is, well, graphical.
Mac owners who buy their Macs for the looks, praise it for not being vulnerable to hacking, complain about their previous Windows setup becoming unusable after all the spy/adware and viral infections, but do not know how to install programs in OS X, never knew there's a command line interface: I'd wager you don't know jack about secure computing in general, but know a lot about porn.
(4) Dear iPod/iRiver/iAudio-toting human, please watch out for cars and buses when you cross the road illegally yet again. There are only a limited number of bus drivers around to become scapegoats for your idiocies.
(5) Ah, Singlish. One who does not know what it is, has merely to hear it to want to deny its existence forever.
Loved #2.
2. Well BlackRX, people like buying nice looking furniture.
4. Portable audio devices? Well, that's what they are. For some, it is more than that. And they must let others know that...
5. Well, what can one say about those losers?
Tim, heheheh. You know what I mean about posers.
As a creative person in the advertising industry, I've been forced to use Macs most of career. I can officially say they suck.

Mr Silver, I was at the Books Cafe tonight at Mohammed Sultan Road. There was an iMac there. So, I went on and opened a browser and before the website could open, the iMac crashes. The wonders of iJobs and his iCreations... Ack.
The best bit is this. Then, another person. Rebooted the iMac. And he tried getting on Yahoo.com. And the iMac crashed again... Wooo...
this post's funny :P .. couldn't agree more on the poser thingy in sg..
Grammar in my previous reply. 'crashed'. Not 'crashes'. Ack.
Alicia, there are so many Mac posers in Singapore. I spotted one at the Starbucks at Millenia Walk on Saturday and another when I walked by the Starbucks at Suntec City. It seems that Starbucks is their preferred watering hole.
