Your Comment | Tags: animal welfare, craving, discrimination, domestication, humanity, karma, monster, rebirth, Vegetarianism & Veganism
Warning: This is a proper vampire movie, where vampires adhere to the classic rules. E.g. they do not glitter with fairy dust in the sun without bursting into flames during non-twilight hours! (To avoid confusion in monster lore, Twilight’s ‘vampires’ shouldn’t be called so in the first place!) What if the situation is in reverse? [...]

A Tit for a Tat (87)
Tit: What do you wish to buy? Can I help you find it?
Tat: It’s okay. I don’t know what I want either.

Tat: This is called shopping!

Wouldn’t it not be an amazing feat that is ‘mind over matter’? Spoiler ahead! The two guys who tried to go through the dare decided that they couldn’t after talking and ‘trying’ it [...]

By shian under Odds & Ends | Your Comment | Tags: contentment, craving
Want the latest handphone?
Want the newest car?
Want the limited edition?
Want the special model?

So upgrade your contentment.

There’re some major changes going on along one of our busiest streets in town. Strange-looking supposedly avant-garde buildings are replacing the old ones. Out of curiosity, we took a walk from the new Orchard Central to Orchard Ion, to witness part of the whopping 40 million dollar revamp of the stuff on Orchard Road.

Haw: But where is something special?
Hee: I don’t know.
Haw: And what is something special?
Hee: I don’t know either.
Haw: Looks like you’re letting yourself be haunted by a unknown meal from nowhere in particular.
Hee: Craving leads to suffering!
Haw: Yes, the more you crave, the more you suffer!
