What is it with Singaporean Chinese?
As of late, I have been observing them more and I have come up with a list of ridiculous/annoying habits they have...such as the following:
- "Chope-ing" seats at the VERY busy hawker centre during peak lunch hour with their wide range of watsons/kleenex/fudak etc tissue papers.
- Shoving and pushing fellow commuters on the bus/train to no end.
- REFUSING to move further in to the bus/train
- STEALING your cabs right under your nose
- Cursing/talking loudly in Mandarin in public
- Digging their nose/ears in public
- Talking to a non Chinese person in Mandarin..(hello? Im not yellow for a reason you know?)
- Always glancing over at non Chinese people and giving them dirty looks (god knows why)
- Abruptly discontinuing their conversation when a non Chinese person steps into the lift.
- Tapping their damn ezy link card while it is still in their clear folder in their purse, in their wallet, in their bag. [JUST TAP THE BLOODY CARD, NOT YOUR ENTIRE BELONGINGS!]
- Pressing the 'stop' bell WAY before their intended stop.
- Repeatedly pressing the 'stop' bell until they alight. [And you wonder why bus drivers are grumpy]
- Yelling at the top of their voices in [It's so screechy & annoying ok!]
- Queue-ing for anything free. Ok, just queue-ing for ANYTHING
- Not realising the VAST difference between an Indian and Indian Muslim. Grrr.
- Always going 'eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee' at EVERYTHING.
- Not bathing in the mornings. [Ok ok..only most of them, HAH!]
- 18. Being skinny. [I won't even explain]
- 19. Always mispronouncing Indian names.
Yes, I hate ending a list at #19..so please stay tuned for more as I will update more of my findings.
In separate news, the guy sitting next to me in the train kept fidgeting the whole damn journey like he had maggots in his pants or something. I truly felt like plucking out his eyebrows so he would REALLY have a reason to be squirming in his seat. Urgh.
Oh, did I mention he's Chinese?
Of course.
