Conspiracy Theory??? Govt Quota!

Many of you will think of govt conspiracies. When something happens.... it is a conspiracy.....

And the most prevelant of conspiracies is the Govt Quota!!!! Waaahhhh simi lai eh? Some ah beng and ah cow will ask. It is the enforcement of the certain limits in numbers of people getting caught, passing something and so on. Logically speaking.... there should be no such thing as a quota.... after all, if we have it, then it would not be fair mah.....

One frequent "quota" flogging post is the Driver's License... I was a purveyor of such a theory myself having been caught in the same situation. I admit that I was hopelessly nervous the first time round, however, the second time round, I was pretty steady and solid... Until the end... the emergency brake.... I was penalized for not stopping in time, (which I swear is a judgement call, since in my over 20year driving and numerous emergency brakes later... I have not killed or hit anyone yet)and I failed by just 1 point.... Cheyyyyy... unfair one.....

Next frequent flogging post is the TP catching people. I do not subscribe to such notions though because almost anyone and everyone I know who have broken the law are caught....... Maybe because they have high quotas.... hehehehehehe....

But to be frank, I do not think that there are quotas in this Sillypore society.... most people work for peanuts and will only do peanuts..... even if you have quotas... they will still give you peanuts... hehehehehe

Anyway, back to my complaint..... aiya... typical Sillyporean so have many complaints mah.... I am driving a rented car while my darling baby car car is still in the workshop and the Evo X is still on its way. So I park the car in my MSCP.. (multi story car park to you non-hdb residents).... and I put a nicebig but rather pai-say sign that it is a replacement car.... And yet I still get fined.... Thats where the quota conspiracy comes in..... Bloody (censored) (censored) idiot.... must have not met his quota and is now findng any Tom Dick and Mary. Or should I say fining any Tom Dick and Larry.....

Wait till my Evo comes..... see if he dare to fine me or not..... hehehehehehe Or maybe I should change my sign from "replacement car" to "fine me and I complain MP".... Hmmmmmm idea.......

Anyway.... dats all from Aunty Agony....... Cheers and Peace out

Isn't Life stupid???

Well ladies and gentle people, I find that some times life in Sillypore really stupid. I came back from an overseas biz trip, (I'm always on a trip nowadays) and found that a glass panel in my living room to be cracked!!! Don wori, it is not life threatening.... right now....

So I called up a few contractors... They said... "Are you crazy?" (Sounds like the phrase is being branded at me quite often now... circa a few blogs ago) Its the 10th storey u know??? (I still won tell you where I stay though...hahahah) Anyway, the damn glass is fixed to the frame and is really difficult to take out and put back in.

So being a normal follow the law Sillyporean, I called up the HDB. The officer came down and said that it is normal "thermal expansion and contraction"..... Of course lah... don tell me kenna possessed by ghosts and the glass crack...... Then he said that he would pass the matter to the town councils as they are in charge of maintenance of the properties. The officers came down and said that I had to find my own contractor to do the repair as it was within my own home.... which leaves me to my initial dilema..... So stupid and such a waste of time. If the HDB just stuck a sign on every surface.. "This is on the inside and it does not have any warranty.... U bot it and u fix it!" I will be most happy to fix it... but then again being asked if I am crazy, I think it is really stupid....

So my brothers and sisters out there in internet land... One day you will have to come back and love in Sillypore land... so be fair warned.... You will have a lot of hassles in and out of your house.

Better to buy landed and at least you will feel more proud and also be able to fix the damn window as no private landed property is of such a height that when you ask someone to fix it for you, the contractor will not say.... Its the 10th storey.... Are you crazy?
