dragg SG i have seen my fair share of neurotics. but are they really crazy or just trying to avoid the harsh realities of life? let me give a few examples; this guy outside the tampines mrt always has a headphone on. on and off he laughes loudly and shouts - but he knows how to take a bus!! this uncle at bedok will take off his slippers, take a few steps back and then wear it back again - but he remembers how to smoke!!! this guy also at bedok like to swing his butt like an ah gua. at the same time he moves his hands like a orchestra conductor - but he knows how to buy cds!! all of them talk to themselves!!!
rathcycle SG They not avoid, they become siao because of some harsh realities, like loved one died... or something similar.
ditzy SG I know this neurotic who posts in sgforums occasionally, enjoy visiting bedok library, appreciating busty minahs, complain about his neighbours, and has this serious knack about foreign talent coz he supposedly thinks they are the cause of his current state of well being.
Cool-gal SG i got to know an siao lang at my workplace, he would stand near the elevator and talk for the whole day by himself, but he dun disturb others, when he go ta bao, stil will ask if i wanna ta bao.. he used to work in 7-11 but after his gf dumped him, he became siao.
Ito_^ SG ya. not everything is spoil, basic functions still working. for not-so-related example, someone who lost his memories, everything, may find himself having skills or knowledge that he thought he didn't.
Seth35 SG Pls Dont assume....Maybe the young guy with his headphone on heard something funny over the Radio...you will never know... You think too much
Seth35 SG 90% of the time assuming is what causes People to have Conflicts over each other... If they are like that do weird things why bother ? I believe you also Do weird things b4 what... I myself also do many stupid weird things...Because of my Childishness in the past... It was so Foolish back than... But hey ! Give these People a Break in Life !
Good2go SG I watched a movie 'Beautiful Mind', it's about schizophrenia. And I believe they have normal intelligence & can be even better than us , just that they will hear or see 'things' that don't exist... hallucinations and delusions. It is also believe that all of us have some form of mental issues, it's just a matter of how serious it is. I knew this guy in his early 20s many years ago, he went in & out of IMH. I doubted he 'kay seow'... He will randomly say certain profound things about life. Example: 'life there (IMH) is good & simple, outside too many conflicts... here got people to take care of me & I don't have to be a burden to my family'. Since then, I always remember this guy every time people talk about 'seow lang'.
