Ooh! I want to share interesting but humourous anecdotes too! Tell us where you're from. Wait. Never mind.
I went to wherever you're from 346 times since 1964, did my political science PhD dissertation on wherever you're from, and in my most recent visit had meals with political cognoscenti from wherever you're from and we discussed the impact of global warming on the long term survival of low lying island nations while taking in cosi fan tutte at the local opera house. Oh, and they privately confessed to me that wherever you're from is shit.
Hey bob, don't be contrary. My first-hand account is as backed up as yours, and any person who is not from wherever you're from can SURELY see that (this logic is impenetrable, since if they are not from wherever you're from, they must be the last word on the situation wherever you're from).
You're a real crafty one bob, you've really got us on the ropes this time. We're really struggling to come up with a logical refutation to "Asshole's dead! Good riddance."
But seriously, we're glad you're here. In the midst of our mourning, we have serious commentators from China coming out to say that we're not Chinese enough, and on the flip side, serious commentators from the USA saying that we're not democratic enough (you just can't win with some people). It's refreshing to have a mental midget whose rambling personal attacks on our very recently departed founder and country are neither backed by credible source or citation (yes bob, we know that your 5 year old nephew told you that if it is on youtube it must be true, but that's not how adults play) that we can all go to town on. So from the depths of my heart, thank you bob!
"Asshole's dead. Good riddance. Stole power on a platform of communism, moved to totalitarianism / familial nepotism, set up his 'wealthy, modern' state by money laundering for Burmese junta, struck up a cheap friendship with US (easy sale: naval positioning for the straits, cable taps on comms, aggressively purchasing regional comms providers in places like .au), did a PR job on .sg's great 'democracy'. His biography - Hard Truths to Keep Singapore Going - is a disgusting exercise in narcissism attempting to rewrite history. Dirty man, dirty state, dirty legacy." You bravely waded in, ad hominem, on a dead man. And now you're complaining about personal attacks? How does one even start with you bob?
Let me clap for you because you have 2715 karma, you who look to have wasted all these trips to our region (how can you travel so much, yet absorb so little). Our entire nation is in mourning, but please do feel free to take keep taking uneducated potshots at a dead man using recycled sound-bites from the 90s, and displaying exactly why freedom of speech is overrated. We will return to pit our unsubstantiated anecdotes against your unsubstantiated anecdotes when we've run out of better things to do (better break out that rubik's cube bob, it's going to take awhile).
