The Ultimate First World Problem: Knitting on a Train

The first time you visit Singapore, you’ll quickly surmise that it’s a very safe, clean, and orderly place. Most everyone is quiet, respectful, and conforms to the social norms set forth by the government. As such, this Letter to the Editor is not really out of the ordinary. What the woman who wrote it, likely didn’t expect, were the endless comedic comments that followed. Some of them are priceless! Such brilliant mockery will hopefully provide inspiration to SDA regulars of how to treat the outrageous words & actions of the Lieberals & Dippers in the 4 years ahead.

    You are a complete prat.
    Yours sincerely,
    The Editor”

  6. I was enjoying life as an Albertan. Recently, I came across two elections. The provincial election was won by a real piece of socialist, female-type woman eco weenie who has surrounded herself with female-type fanatics such as her minister of environment and climate change, one Ms. Shannon “Greenpeace” Phillips who embarking on a mission to save the planet from the ravages of practically everything. The federal election was won by a not-so-male-type man, socialist who has surrounded himself with female-type fanatics such as his minister of environment and climate change, one Ms. Catherine “Whack-a-doodle” McKenna who believes we can live without fossil fuels in this harsh, cold northern climate. Their terms are about 4 years long. It will just seem like an eternity.
    At times, politicians’ brain become disconnected from reality and as they lurch forward on their missions of salvation, a lot of people will get hurt. There will be very serious consequences if they are allowed to fulfill their radical and demented enviro wishes. Millions will be forced out of work and our environment will suffer as they pretend to save it by wasting billions on frivolous and effete climate legislation.
    So now it is a question of what is the appropriate action that a concerned Albertans can take in such a situation. Should we tough it out for four years while they lay waste to the economy and environment?
    Perhaps there is some sort of emergency political action we can push to abort their terms and bring their runaway enviro train to a halt before a lot of people get hurt.
    By the way, what circumstances warrant an activation of the emergency recall button?
    ☺☺

  7. Thanks Robert that was worth the read and for my chuckles of the day so far.
    CAS, Shrillary Clinton has a “reset” button she isn’t using anymore. Worked out well for her 🙂

  8. “We should ban riding on trains.”
    A ban on sneezing while driving will reduce accidents by 3,200 every year in the US.

  9. I’m going to have to look into moving to Singapore. It appears to be one of the few places on Earth where most of the people still have their heads screwed on properly.

  10. Loved their sense of humour. I’m so disgusted with my fellow Canadians maybe I should look at relocating to Singapore.

  11. How true, more people are in accidents due to sneezing than polar bear farting warming the northern hemisphere…
