Last weekend, I took bus CT 18 from the bus stop near my flat to Chinatown. The waiting time for CT 18 can be quite long as its frequency is not very regular. I decided to find myself a seat at the bus stop. There are two rows of benches at the bus stop

These are essentially a bum-rest, not quite meant to be a bench. So It make sense to have it slightly tilted. But why some are tilted and some are not...maybe LTA also couldn't make up their mind if these are meant to be bum-rest or bench.

if it's really the case, shouldn't the authorities do something about the homeless guy? like getting him into a job or whatever to earn himself a roof instead of coming up with such designs where 1 couldn't stand or sit against it properly?

 

just my point of view.

They should have made the bum-rest slightly lower. I'm 1.73m but when I try to keep myself from sliding in a position as described, my feet can't touch the ground.

Is my first time yesterday that I had step into a bus-stop after about 15 years . Didn't even noticed that the seats have became slanted bench . Tried sitting on it , is really not comfortable at all . Maybe I'm short .

In addition , the new fleet of buses are all equipped with cameras internally and externally . All out to catch those passengers for not paying the fares and drivers that went into their bus lane . So scary ....

  • Space: Large and Empty

    Over the weekend I fell into a bit of a science-fiction/science rabbithole. You know, one of those when you click on ONE Youtube video and suddenly the whole Sunday afternoon is gone and your algorithm is all messed up.  Anyway, obviously there's tons of fascinating stuff about space and science and all that. Too much, really.  But one fun fact has stuck in my brain: All the other planets in the Solar System could fit between Earth and our Moon.  It seems crazy to think, consideri

    Doing the thing, minus the thing

    You might have seen this viral clip on social media:  m2-res_480p.mp4 This might be one of the greatest, funniest things I've seen in quite a long while.  Put simply, its horse-racing, minus the horses.  And look, of course it's all a bit of fun (clearly a stunt to gain social media attention, but it also raised money for charity). I think it might be best described as 'doing the thing, minus the thing'. And we've seen plenty of gimmicky conceits (I for one am quite a sucker
