I sold some useless Rolex at 50% discount for this monster of a Diver watch. For the same price, you couldn't get anything this standard with Rolex or Panerai. of course if you are wondering, its aint sour grapes because i got most of the divers you a shallow pocket collector can dream off.. :-))))

Anniversary Dinner @ L'Atelier Joel Robuchon

Well i celebrated my half anniversary with my lady recently at this fantastic restaurant. Mr Robuchon has 25 total Michelin star around the world, of course he didn't cook but he did put his name and reputation on every of his restaurant bearing his name and you know you are not far from perfection. The last time i dine in a 3 star establishment was capri in HK and Sukiyabashi Jiro from Tokyo. Both business dinner which i didn't pay Lol! of course Singapore got no stars yet but i am thinking they will get an automatic 2 stars at least if it was rated.

To go easy on my lady purses since she insisted she buy this one, we opted for the cheaper L'Atelier and a more accommodating menu.  I will return the favour very soon in a 3 star place in Japan during the honeymoon.

New snack find in Bangkok

I went to BKK recently and i forgot to check that it was songkran festival. Fuck those revellers and those water pouring fucktards. Cutting their throats and letting their blood flow would be my songkran of choice, Anyway we got about our business meeting and manage to dodge all the losers that was there.

The thing about festival is, all the people who took part are kinda of pathetic, well for starters, you have the society rejects!, one look and you know what i am talking about and we have all the LGBT as usual, this fucktard group pollute everywhere they go spreading their unholy use of their body and expect the whole world to respect and allow them. Might as well let paedophiles teach in our schools.. wait! they are already are... Oh well

Then we have the usual sluts who want to spread their legs during festival. well you got the ugly ones as well as the pretty ones. Sluts are everywhere except that during festival, its get easier for the spread. And of course who could forget the white thrash that work at starbucks and live in a cheap suburb with their contracted iphones. BKK is just too cheap for anyone.... Civil groups who plan to make a point via terrorism would see BKK as a natural target. well, you got a worldwide audience, security forces consist of tight fitting obese farmers in uniforms(police), a gridlock city centre would ensure maximum damage and if your target is white people or China citizens, you are even luckier!

Anyway i just thought for those fucktard who are interested in buying some snacks, i got some good recommendations. instead of going to MBK and buying garbages, why not pick up these high end snacks for yourself and your family. Buy from MBK to feed the pests in your life like your office colleagues, neighbours and some fucktard who claim to be your acquaintances.  

The fried pork skin is the best i ever tasted in BKK. Freshly made and restaurant produce dont count. i am talking prepackaged sold over the counter. this one is the best. it can be found at the bbq meat stall at the centre of paragon basement where the supermarket is located.

As for the dried snacks, this up and coming thai company is the bomb. buy it

Fuck you Kap!

Smith and Wesson Assisted Tactical Knife - SWMP4L

Bought a fancy military grade knife recently. actually other than for the reason of gadget vanity, i have no other reason to own this $100 knife. Although it is made to take lives, assist in survival and so on, i have no plan to use it for any of the purpose it is made for except for opening letters on my desk.

However i must say the knife is as deadly as it manufacturer claim and just in case you have no idea, Smith and Wesson is one of the biggest and oldest weapon company in the US and supply weapons to military and law enforcement the world over. This knife is extremely sharp and the spring assist opening is a cool feature to have. 

And i bought it legally just in case you are wondering.

Ted has arrived!

The good old furniture accessory that is all the rage in Korea has finally arrived in Singapore. Not that i am a fan of the whimsy K-Pop crap but i am a fan of good design and Ted is one. Some time the best design is the one that reinvent the most ignored and basic function like what simplehuman did with the trashcan and sell it for 20-30 times the price people used to pay.

My new in room trash can - Simplehuman Touch-bar 30L

Decided to upgrade my 12L trash can in the room to a bigger capacity and i thought why not make my company pay for it since most of the trash that went inare company related. I never really see the benefit of a top loading touch bar trash can until i try it out. 

It much more user friendly than my current step can if one is using it around a work desk. First thing first, i dun have to swivel my chair out to step on the can since the old can is not placed near my desk, secondly, i need not aim to throw the thrash as the can is way at the bottom. 

The new touchbar can is at waist level and more than double the old capacity and with its design to hide the excess of the liner, it is a very aesthetically pleasing piece of functional furniture to any decor even one as derelict as my room.

For a couple of hundred bucks with tax deduction benefits, it well worth the benefits.

Free gift for Corporate Internet Plan and my discount Vornado

We recently sign up for a new internet plan and as per the term corporate goes, you are essentially paying an absurd amount of extra subscription compared to home. So to mitigate the unnecessary pain they cause us. The Internet company gave us a Eubiq Tower complete with 5 premium adaptors plus an equally absurdly expensive sensor LED light. 

I just check at the Eubiq store and realise the whole set retail for $498. And i uncontrollably bought another smaller less premium track for $128 because it was on 50% discount.

Its really cool for those installed tracks in walls but hey you got to have the right interior to match up. If you plan on getting furniture from our roster of low quality furniture stores along Toh guan, kallang and good old IKEA, i suggest you dont bother with the 5k installation charge.

On top of that, i got myself a powerful Vornado fan at the recent Homefix discount store. Couldnt resist unnecessary stuff that i don't need yah... $569 for one big and one small

Return from CNY16- Here come the Darth Vader

3242 of 5000- Royal Selangor Darth Vader

Its finally here. The order was placed in November 2015 and the bloody Royal Selangor took many of the customer figurines on tour to Europe and US for display before finally releasing  it back to us. 

Well, the first batch was produced up to 500 pieces which i also happen to have one which i promptly sold for a tidy profit and bought a 2nd piece when they decide to increase production to 5000 pieces. well the number 3242 means something to me and i am definitely not selling this one.

All Darth Vader are hand sculpted and every piece will be unique and that's the beauty of it all. if it's machined milled then the collectible factor will be very much reduced. Not to mention the new Darth is a wussy in the JJ Abrams series, this make Darth Vader all the more collectible.

As a guide, prices have risen 10 times for the first batch production of 500 pieces and 4-6 times for the 2nd batch from 501-5000.

Collected it with my lady today at Suntec!
