Nope not music.
Just a random thought. Stereo typing. Is it good or bad?
Personal opinion of mine. It is subjective to the situation.
In situations whereby you have resource constraints, do we have the time to know everyone individually before passing judgements?
For example, you need to find a place to live in. The people living in that vicinity is an important factor for you. Do you stereo type? Or do you go and know every single individual living in that area before you move in?
My conclusive opinion is that stereo typing can be help depending on situations. But if its meeting new people and making friends then you should not stereo type.
But, no matter the situation, please do not stereo type me! Know me personally first...
Muahahahahahaha!

The King That Fell
Once upon a time, in the southern province of somewhere...
There was a very powerful king named The King. He has a vast empire and had nothing to worry about as neighbouring kingdoms feared angering him. He was a good king though.
He saw a beautiful girl. Lets cut the story short. Got laid and had two sons. Son A and Son B.
Many years have past and yada yada yada...
Son A is now 18 years. He is of legal age to *censored*. So his father sent him on a quest. A quest to study whatever he wants for 3 years and use what he studied to build his own empire. He went on a studying frenzy of all the books he could find to develop his skills on governing a country and searched for top nobles who lots of education to join him as his ministers.
3 years later he started his quest for his empire. and the empire grew well and prospered for the next 2 years.
At this point in time, Son B who is 5 years younger turned 18. The King then sent Son B on his quest for studying and starting his empire 3 yrs later. Son B went on a journey. A journey to all the different provinces and countries that were out of his father's kingdom. He seeked talents from the poor and studied with them.
3 years later he started his quest for his empire. In these 3 years, Son A's empire constantly grew and prospered.
Son B's empire grew amazingly fast. and in 5 years time, it was as strong as Son A's.
At this point in time 3 are 3 powers. The King, Son A and Son B, all with their own Empire. The King's empire however is 3 times their sizes.
The sons in their castle suddenly received a SMS from their father. "Hi boys! POP QUIZ! HOW DO YOU DEFEND AGAINST MY ARMY THAT IS GOING TO ATTACK YOU?!"
Fierce battles raged between the 3 kingdoms.
Outcome is? Son A's kingdom collapsed. Son B's however, survived and repelled the father's army and The King, proud of his younger son made him successor. So mathematically now, Son B owns a damn big empire.
Morale of the story? You go and think.

Minions at work!
Check this out... This is what I call excessive killing! We cannot stop them from eating the dolphins as it is their culture. However, I feel revolted at the way these dolphins are being caught.
Eating dolphins? Fair enough, Chinese eat dogs. However the dogs are not excessively slaughtered!
What can be done to help these dolphins?
What views do you have?

Pointless increase in my annual expense
Dog license for male dogs is now S$70! So now my dog which is already 13 years old, too weak to mate requires a license fee of $70. Let us take a good look at the rationale behind the $70 first.
The first reason stated by the letter I received is this-
Better management of dog population. My dog is already too old to mate so why do I still need to pay $70 or sterilise my dog? This is an irrelevent reason to me. This reason here is like asking a 95 year old man who stays home does nothing but eat and sleep to wear a condom for fun.
The second reason stated by some organisation-
Instil responsible pet ownership. Excuse me? Raising the expenses of raising my dog is being a more responsible pet owner? In fact the increase in expense here is not making my dog's life better? So how will this increase in price contribute to being a more responsible pet owner? Another redundant reason to raise license fee!
The third and last reason stated-
Discourage pet abandonment. Lucky for them I will not abandon my pet. However I can't say the same for the many dog owners out there in the world. Supposedly an owner has a pet, and pays $14 annually. Suddenly the fee jacks up to $70! And he reads through the rationale behind the rpice increase and realises that it is totally irrelevent to him! He will be paying for an increase in price for nothing! He doesnt see the need to pay the price increase and what does he do? He abandons the pet! Here now contributes to pet abandonment! Totally irrelevent!!!!
However all is not bad. There is always a solution.
They can adjust the affected pet owners into this category. Dogs that can still mate and new licenses that are aquired from the date of the revised legislation.
First they do not affect old dogs that cannot have fun. Secondly they discourage irresponsible owners from purchasing new pets and also do not displease present owners and prevent them from abandoning their current pet.
Still even with a simple solution... We cannot do anything about it.
