    Fwd: Darwin Awards Newsletter -- March 2007

    Just got the newsletter from Darwin today...
    Did the below really happen in Singapore?
     
    What the heck is Hua Business School anyway??

    DARWIN AWARD: Rock Out
    Confirmed by Darwin

    November 2006, Singapore | Picture a college dorm room.
    Textbooks, dirty laundry, sexy posters, food wrappers, and
    in the middle of it all, a 16-year-old male rocking out
    to loud music.  A typical student, a typical day.

    But this particular student, bouncing on his bed as he rocked
    out on his air guitar, was about to "take things too far,"
    according to the coroner's report.  Li Xiao Meng, a student
    at Singapore's Hua Business School, bounced up and down on
    his bed with such enthusiasm that he rocked himself right out
    of the third-floor window.

    Normally the windows are locked, but students reportedly
    force the locks so they can sneak a cigarette.  Perhaps
    alluding to Ted Nugent's rock song, the court ruled it
    a case of "Death By Misadventure."

    Reader Comments:
    "Did he fall, or did he dive into an imaginary mosh pit?"
    "Dude! Where's my mosh pit?"
    "Oingo Boingo"

    Stingy!

    I have a colleague who just had a baby a month ago. As per tradition, we chipped in some money to buy a present for the newborn. This time the person collected at least $5 per person (usual practice was $2, or unstated).
     
    Today he gave out cake vouchers since the daughter is 1-month old now. As per tradition. Supposed to give back blessings in return for blessings received.
     
    However this Mr. S (S for stingy), only chose to give to those who contributed $10 and above. Warrao! Heard from my fren the cake costs ard $7 a piece. Meaning he earns $3 for every $10 received and $5 for every $5 received!!
     
    I'm not fond of cakes, so that's not the main issue. Just sad that ppl are so unkind, especially towards ppl who are kind towards them.
     
    Anyways... That's that. Just in a bitchy mood due to my cold. ;p
