  Jurong West ice cream uncle and his principle of making an honest living
Posted by: k.ng - 28-04-2022, 02:02 PM - Forum: Chit Chat - Replies (4)

Nice little story from mothership.

[Image: aRgmf65.png]

Quote:One Jeremy Goh posted to Facebook an encounter with an ice cream uncle at Jurong West.

Goh shared that the ice cream he bought cost S$1.20. After paying, he asked the uncle to keep the extra change.

The uncle, however, refused to accept the change, and according to Goh, even chased after him to return the money.

The uncle apparently said that this was his "principle" to making an honest living.

Instead of paying him extra, the uncle would rather Goh patronise his cart more.

According to Goh, the uncle typically stations himself around Blk 674 Jurong West St 65 or outside Boon Lay Secondary School, everyday from 2pm to 10pm.


From https://mothership.sg/2020/03/jurong-ice...no-change/ (Mar 2020)

So if you see our local ice cream uncle around and you're in the mood for a dessert, buy some ice cream from him. Smile

  Middle-class family in Shanghai dealing with lockdown (Chinese video)
Posted by: Limfamily - 17-04-2022, 11:23 AM - Forum: Chit Chat - Replies (3)



Some key points that I noted:

  • This family has to rely on some kind of group buy programme with other residents in the same building for food
  • The food is delivered to their doorstep by volunteers since it's very inconvenient to leave home
  • Looks like the residents take turns becoming volunteers to deliver food
  • Regular online shopping is impossible since everything is sold out
  • Price of one head of Chinese cabbage is roughly SGD21 (!!!)

Not trying to scare anyone or anything...but we shouldn't take things for granted yah.

  Has anyone grown their own ecosphere or terrarium here?
Posted by: MooMooBird - 24-03-2022, 05:57 PM - Forum: Pets, Animals, and Plants - Replies (9)

I've been looking at ecospheres/terrarium videos quite a bit recently because they're relaxing and just so interesting to watch. Just wondering if any of you have built or grown your own?



This video shows an ecosphere that seems easy to set up. Just grab some seawater and plants and hope something grows. I guess the guy was lucky enough to catch a baby crab which grew quite big.



And then you have the more pro guys who can build mini forests with mist. Amazing.

Just wondering if there are any here in Jurong West. Can share more pics and vids if you don't mind. Big Smile

  Animals and nature videos/pics (not cute or funny)
Posted by: vince95 - 12-03-2022, 11:26 PM - Forum: Pets, Animals, and Plants - Replies (41)

i saw this amazing video of a gigantic crocodile eating a SHARK in Australia and I want to share it with you guys. its obviously not cute or funny so it does not really fit into the "Sharing cute and funny videos of animals" thread, so im starting a new one for people who like wildlife documentaries and such.

if you decide to post anything thats especially bloody or violent, do provide a warning.

No surprise to see chicken rice, nasi lemak, and prata at the top. But I'm surprised to see fishball soup so high. Also surprised that cheng tng and frog porridge so low.

Your thoughts?

  Mysterious. A rock that imprisoned a legendary Japanese demon has cracked open.
Posted by: totoro08 - 08-03-2022, 03:21 PM - Forum: Chit Chat - Replies (3)

Yes I know it's a weird story but I found it interesting.

It all started when a Japanese Twitter user @Lily0727K discovered that the rock that was said that imprison a demon spirit has cracked open. According to the legend, the demon's release will mean tragedy for the world. Shocked

Below is how the rock looked before cracking open.
