Elephants

If I had to choose an animal as an analogy for Singaporeans, it would definitely have to be the elephant. Why you ask? Becoz they have a nasty habit of throwing themselves down onto the seats on trains and buses. I can't go one day without someone doing that resulting in my body weight being jerked violently skyward. Oh... and they stomp too.
Sickening.

Yeah why do people stomp? I'm always puzzled by that. My own theory is that by stomping or walking heavy it's some kind of show of importance or aggression towards people around them. The way I bird sticks out its feathers to warn away other birds or threatening animals. My neighbour upstairs stomps around the room. I can hear every single footstep on my ceiling. It's so disturbing. I can't sleep at night. While we're on the subject of MRT trains why do people queue with their noses to the door then dash in to get a seat practially knocking everyone else down? Strange.

They want to guarantee themselves seats becoz they're too lazy to stand. Just this morning, had someone shove his way past me to get the seat I was eying.
