As Stupid As Stupid Can Be

October 17th, 2005 - Monday

Tell me, which of the following pathetic excuses is good enough to justify using toilets for disabled people:

It is nearer afterall.

Or

Maybe he shares my love for handicapped toilets because they are so freaking spacious and usually has your own mirror and wash basin! Coolness!

And then there was one who haughtily gave justification for using such toilets because she considered herself temporarily disabled. Why? Because menses was dribbling down her thighs.

    xiaxue? oh, i forgot abt her, until i read this piece.

  3. JoeC Says:

    what to say, some ppl have the brain capacity and logic of a toilet flush, all liquid nothing solid…handicap in the brain…where is the s’pore moral police when you need them, geez. Cheers!

  4. Andy Says:

    She seems to be very capable of the self-distruction of her image. Give it another year or two and the XiaXue novelty wears off, she’ll just be known as one irritating blogger (including to her fans).

  5. Jaclyn Says:

    Where did that girl drop down from, only God knows.. To have a post so distastefully done like that, should put her to shame.. It’s either she is doing it to generate more hits, or she really feels that way..Either way, it’s shameful to do something like that.. A darn freaking rude person, that has childish mentally to even think that way..And yes, freedom of speech, i agree, everyone has the right to be heard..But this does not concern the freedom of speech..rather it concerns the morales and the upbringing of a person..She should be taught a lesson..and one day she will be.. What goes around comes around..I feel very strongly about this that’s why after all this time of reading your blog, i decided to post…I really hope she realises how childish and rude her post is.. This truly depicts the kind of morales a person has, because things like this, i should say even a 8 year old would know..

  6. T-Boy Says:

    Don’t get into it. There are bigger and better fights to get into in your life online, and wasting your time on a pundit-manque’s opinion of what she’s entitled to is pretty much near the bottom of that list.

    Take it from someone who’s been in enough stupid fights online–eventually you end up exhausted and, worse off, looking like an idiot.

  7. Itsy Weensy Bytes… - *Shame Shame..* Says:

    [...] A post so distastefully done, left a bad taste in my mouth obviously.. I wouldn’t have read it, if i hadn’t seen it on Peter Tan’s Digital Awakening There you’ll be able to get links to other people’s blogs that has blogged about it.. [...]

    That really pisses people off…I cant believe it after i read the post…

  9. FindingMe Says:

    I just wish I am some techno nerd that can write killer trojan program and bomb her website over and over and over and over again….Wah Lau… This particular Singapore Ah Lian … is either stupid or … no brainer… aiya no word can say… lah I want save my breath and brain matter for something else

  10. Lainie Says:

    *shrug*

    On the other hand, after her post, a lot more people will be aware of how unethical it is

  11. jean` Says:

    she doesn’t think much of her actions, does she? its just plain shallow and selfish not to think of those in need, not to mention justifying her not-justifiable actions.

  12. nicktay Says:

    Honestly, I stopped reading her blog. My IQ droppes each time I read her entries..I mean, what do you expect from her right?

  13. Sashi Says:

    Can’t have the yin without the yang. No Prof X without Magneto. Superman must have a Lex Luthor. And so bloggers (specifically Malaysian) have XX. Without her, we’re just a bunch of people agreeing with each other a lot on everything. (I was going to add that she’s our Green Goblin, but I believe her colour’s pink..?)

  14. erizabesu Says:

    i agree with jaclyn…what goes around comes around…

    *hugs*

  16. Adam Says:

    Proves that she is only a Bimbo.

  17. simon Says:

    there is an afterlife, whether she believes it or not.

  18. lynnee Says:

    her blog menyakitkan mata saya la… that terrible terrible worse-than-minibus-colour-pink background & her uglier-than-sin mug plastered all over.

    not to mention the nonsense she writes & tries to pass it off as wisdom. that is not the work of someone smart.

  19. yorokobi Says:

    there’re worse bloggers than xiaxue with immorality blog entries. you “self-claimed-rightous blazers” can flame them.

    xiaxue has own her thoughts, she blogs what she likes. IS HER BLOG. there’re million of blogs out there. you cant control all of them. then why are you here to control xiaxue? no, you’re not? are you sure? not cosh she’s popular (or notorious if you wanna put it tis way), and you wan everyone to read your swearin? nobody is stoppin you not to read her blog. it is childish for you, grown ups or young adults to insult her and think that you are right. neither do i think that is right for me to be here. on someone’s blog to claim righteousness for xiaxue. morever my english sux.

    i cant stand sights of self-rightousness people insultin, in sarcastic tone at a helpless girl. what can she do? chop your hands off? nah, she can only humbly accept and reply.

    xiaxue writes with touch of humour, and no harm meant. you people? just tryin to bitch at her and think is alright to do so. anyway nobody knows nobody. who knows what you wrote, tomorrow is another good day for you to bitch. thinkin that bitchin is a moral thing to do? insultin is alright, no big deal. anyway xiaxue is worse? i dont think so.

    xiaxue has a heart, maybe a heart of gold. you hardly know her, and who are you to insult her. yeah, i dont know her either, at least i dont give nasty comments. why go to the extent to make someone feels so terrible. we know that xiaxue comes here, cosh people write about her here. how you feel if people call you,”stupid”, “idiot” and indirectly hintin that your afterlive wont be good. i belives you might cry upon these critisizes.

    yeah, maybe you might rebuke that you dont write “disabled entries” in your blog. even you do, you write it perfectly, a model entry eh. and i doubt is from the bottom of your heart. unlike xiaxue, she knows many of them will disagree and anti her. she still wrote it, cosh that’s her blog, a place to jot her thoughts down.

    even xiaxue uses disabled toilet which is immorally wrong and you really want her good, go talk to her nicely to help her. i dont see you doin that.

    what you’re doin is destroyin her confident. to stop her from bloggin? why? cosh is immoral? and is right for you to destroy a person’s confident? a person’s path for income?

    if you really have moral, you have it. no matter what influences are there, you are still who you are. if you’re immoral.

    TADAH. we can see people start to bitch about xiaxue. claimin to be righteous. where have their morals hide that they claim they have?

    i dont see any of you writin,”xiaxue, i dont think is right. you should change your view of thought. etc”

    nobody does that. everyone joined in the fun to bitch and curse and swear. is so easy. just type a few letters, a few words or a few sentences. it feels so great to be part of the fun.

    people see this, either they think im xiaxue usin broken english on purpose or a young teenage fan or probably a friend of hers.

    i wont consider myself as her fan. i dont go to the extent of wantin her signature and scream,”wo ai ni, xiaxue”.

    i’m just a blogder curious about people’s life. to understand how’s humans like in the society. xiaxue’s blog gives me laughters and i read them with a pinch of salt. i never read them seriously.

    cos i’ve my own thoughts too, just like you. i project them in a nicer way, and does not want anyone to be hurt in the process. i’ve feelins, i know how it feels to be critisized. i’m sure you know the feelins too.

  20. angelzvenom Says:

    Damn U. Is disabled people so “high-up”? Are disabled people not human? We all give up seats to those who needs it, help guide the blind and tells them bus numbers, help old people carry things… and just about a toilet and you have hurt Xiaxue so badly and taken away her endorsement! U are really a wolf in sheep skin. What an awfully “touching” website you have… Shave your head for the Hospice, yah, true…huh, my foot.

    You are only a lowdown creature who harms people’s lifelihood and ricebowl. I dispise you… Not because you are disabled, but because of your lowly and despicable actions.

    A blog is meant to be a person’s view and points, and at the first place doesn’t mean it stands for the country or the world’s view. You are just jealous of her. Jealous of how she’s having a wonderful life and which you can never achieve.

    I hate you like millions out there for your despicable actions. Backstabber.

    Go to hell.

  21. mandy Says:

    you are trying to cut up a piece of xiaxue’s life, ie. her income from her endorsement,
    because you disagree with some of her views.
    look, if i disagree with the Singapore’s president’s view,
    i wouldn’t try to burn down temasek holdings.
    I do not personally agree with her usage of tone,
    but i also certainly think your way of getting back at people is absolutely not laudable.

  22. ShaolinTiger - Kung-Fu Geekery Says:

    Xia Xue get pwns again..

    I\’d like to say congratulations to Voxy for making a great decision to stop endorsing the bucket of pink shit known as Xia Xue.

  23. link Says:

    you guys think you are always right, disable people don’t want to look special. they just want to be normal like everyone else and not need to be stared at pushing their whel chair down the street. i was born with a disfigured spine and have been in a wheelchair all my life and well i never scolded people for using public toliets for the disable because after all it’s still a public toliet. it’s okay, since people are nice enough for me to be next in line for it.

    but i guess this will give me a chance to bang on any disable public cubical that is occupied and scream, “ARE YOU A FUCKING BLOGGER? IF YOU ARE YOU BETTER SCRAM!”

  24. claps Says:

    Well done yeah. For all the ‘great’ things you’ve been doing, never expected you to stoop to that level. So i guess you’ll only be happy once you’ve completely ruined her huh? Wonder how you would feel if it happened to you as well. ‘bad role model’? Did she even say she wanted to be one in the first place? Nvm i guess. No matter how what good you people do, malaysians will be malaysians after all~
    Btw, i nvr said i agreed with her post, just that i find your ways pathetic and disgusting.

  25. Johanna Says:

    Dear Peter
    On one hand, you have a young, impulsive girl who is just blogging her views on her blog. (Note that the said girl did not actuallly prevent a disabled person from using the toilet and the circumstances in that case was that a disabled person had actually scolded somebody who accidentally opened the toilet door which he himself did not lock.)

    On the other hand, you have a man, who has gone through many difficulties in life. A man that I personally respect for facing such difficulties with grace and strength. But this man has caused this young girl to lose her endorsement deals, her livelihood…

    For what?

    We are all entitled to our opinions.

    Turning the other cheek ,more often than not, is a lot more effective , and it sure as hell looks a lot more dignified.

  26. ahbohling Says:

    Are you so victimised that you cannot see that what xiaxue says might not be that outrageous? I have never thought it a right that we have instantly available toilets in public places.

    If non-disabled people don’t have that right, why should wheelchair bound people demand that?

    Granted she has made a controversial point but the essence of her argument bears some thought.

    I sometimes use the handicapped toilet in an emergency as well. If someone disabled was outside waiting, all they need to do is to knock and I will emerge ASAP and apologise to him/her. I have yet to have that experience.

  27. peterpan Says:

    are u a male or female?

  28. james Says:

    it really startled me to realise how evil human like you all can be. if u are truely against xiaxue, treat her as invisible, dont ever visit her site again. that should have settle all the problems by itself, would’nt it? i am not pro nor anti xiaxue, but it really maddens me upon seeing that so many of ignorant bloggers are using hurtful words. she had make it damn clear in the post that she was against that RUDE disabled guy, and NOT against all disabled. but some how you people love to distort her words. she may not be a saint, and i dont think anyone would be. no one is perfect, everyone knows this, but why be so narrow minded and kept spamming her? i dont get it. did she kill your parents? did she steal your love? it must be so, or else i could’nt think of any sensible reasons to explain your intense hatred towards her. dont tell me that her posts are leading people, esp younger generations, astray. everyone, online and offline, are using vulgarities so often that vulgarities are no longer vulgarities. u could see vulgarities everywhere, on the seats of sbs buses, doors of toilets, void decks, one more vulgarity makes no difference. you may have different views from her, but you dont have to impose YOUR views on her. she voice out her views, its her problem. if she should really get punished for what she says, allow the rightful authorities to take actions. from my pov, you are are worst than her, she didnt spam you. did she? before my words get distorted, i must repeat that i am NOT siding xiaxue. i just find that what you people have been doing to her are cruel.

  29. defineme Says:

    excuse me peter, if i may say so, not that i’m helping xiaxue or anything, but people are bloody entitled to post down their own comments on their blogs without having to look at malicious comments made by others. i gather you are a god-fearing person. but the line “Because menses was dribbling down her thighs.” realli pissed me off. the reason why i am even in here, is cos someone’s had your link while penning down her thoughts. besides, she didn’t freaking say she prevented a disabled person from using the disabled toilet. she was merely commenting on the rudeness of that particular person. if you don’t like it, why even go there? you and that other blogger have gone way too far by stopping other people’s source of income. let’s see how YOU like it when others do that to you. til then, i think you need to pay a visit to your priest more often, and confess your sins.

  30. jemina Says:

    come on lor~if u hate her blog then stop reading and get lost from her blog.u chose to read it so stop critising it.wat goes around comes around.u will get ur retributions too

  31. Jessica Says:

    Dear Peter, while it is certainly justifiable that Xiaxue’s views could be considered selfish in this instance, it is just as justifiable that you are stooping to a level far lower than any of her actions/words. By launching a personal attack against her, you have 1) lost much credibility in your pursuit for, I don’t know, compassion perhaps, and 2) affected her livelihood and probably life in general. If you were a homophobic and I was your colleague, would I write underhanded letters to the boss asking that you be fired because truly, your stand on homosexuality “affects me”? No I would not. I have read your blog a couple of times before this incident, and I, as a reader, am disappointed that you have chosen such a course of action. Perhaps you might want to start reflecting on your own actions and consider that just as the disabled are people who are to be respected as much as anyone else, so is Xiaxue.

  32. Ogden Says:

    Attacking other people’s livelihood yeah? Can’t you just reason with her first? And can you stop scolding pple stupid? can use more suitable words? Do you understand what is stupidity or not?

  33. Rachel Says:

    Yi shan hai you yi shang gao. There you are trying to help the needy, trying to be “good”. You’re just self delusional. Doing something that’s so contrasting. Breaking someone’s rice bowl. Tsk.

    Tian ah. I think you’re worse than her.

  34. whoOo. Says:

    it is HER blog. she can tok bout HER stuff. just like i dun c her coming her to DISCUSS and SHARE and OPINIONS on YOUR blog. im nt really siding with her or anyth. but jus pity her since u actually go to the extend of attacking her livelihood. wat am i trying to sae is, if u dun like wat she saes, dun read it. her language is crude. but urs aint any better. “menses dribbling down her thighs” -> ttz OKAE HUH?

  35. EL Says:

    Peter,

    As a christian to another, stop being self righteous.

    Xiaxue’s argument cannot be invalidated when you employ the fallacy of ad hominem (abusive).

  36. sophia Says:

    wad the hell is a renown blogger like u bitchin like some teenage girl??? im sure a man that has been thru lots in life like u would be smarter and more realistic den this. tryin to sabotage her endorsement deals? slammin her like as if she killed ure grandmother? jus because ure life is in rocky waters it doesnt gif u the right to shoot others down. im veri disappointed by the things u haf to say to this issue. its jus a freakin public toilet and as she has repeated over and over again, she doesnt forbid disabled ppl frm usin the toilet so wads the big deal!? dont be such a bitter old man… its a waste on ure literary talents.

  37. pure malice Says:

    Please, do not think about being physically disabled enables you to rule the world because of that social opinions that we have for centuries that let us go towards the physically disabled naturally.

    i see you’re clear in your mind no?

    If any case you disagree, go to xiaxue and dont degrade yourself by sending mails to her endorsements companies and rip her off her jobs. If you need the toilets so ever badly, what if she DOES need the money? Dont apologise for something you cannot undo.

    stupid? Right, i see you hold more stupidity by sending hate mails like hateful spiteful girl of her age trying to revenge through her livehood. WHY? has her nails and hair got to do with toilets anyway? it surprise me that you read xiaxue’s blog in any case.

    And yes, my point is, a man your age cannot be putting yourself against a girl like xiaxue. You should have been the one who been through it all, seen it all, brave through it all. Then why of all things did you did that? For all the physically disabled i’ve known, they never demanded anything. Because they wanted to be at the same level as us, they try to do everything on their own and only seek for help when its out of their means but never did they regard themselves as special lot of people who deserves attention

    Therefore, you dont too. and yes, do not drown in your own beliefs. Its time for a change if you still do.

    To all the XX supporters,
    Go over to XX’s blog, read them lick-my-pussy comments. Supporters’s comments are allowed, those oppose are moderated. Concealing the real scenario, creating an atmosphere that bitch is supported by many. What a loser. Contradicting on everything she say.

  41. love_xiaxie Says:

    You are born with an evil look and act like an evil.You were punished badly but your resentment will continue to make you suffers from the rest of your life.

  42. iesnek Says:

    Firstly, she is NOT a helpless ignorant little girl. She is what? 19-20 years old? She has MENSA certification or some shit like that, something which she likes to rub into her readers faces. That should have helped contribute somewhat to her maturity and capabilities of thinking before speaking, correct?

    She had sponsorship deals with several brands, endorsed on her blog. When you are endorsing/ being sponsored by a brand you are selected to REPRESENT what the brand stands for and are rewarded for being a good representative. (Questionable at times, but that’s probably the basic gist of it, other than people’s differing definitions of good and bad.)

    It was just a matter of whether her sponsors were willing to stick it out or drop her like yesterday’s leftovers after the recent incident. Well, sponsors DID drop her after receiving negative feedback and accusations from other parties about her being a canine of the female persuasion which should be euthanised.

    P.S.

    I truly didn’t know that writing a letter of complaint regarding the behaviour of others was seen as malicious.

    Don’t equate your own mentalities to the actions of others.

    Fucktards.

  43. anonymous Says:

    I’m very disgusted by the way you handled this matter. What is your aim in email-ing all her endorsements companies? A grown-up like you should be able to do more matured, instead of something so childish like this.

    I’ve read her blog and the reason why she’s famous is because she is honest. She will not fake anything just to make it seem, or rather, look politically correct. What is wrong with voicing her opinions?

    And, do you know even know her? You do not know her well enough to comment on her. So what if she does say all those stuff. You know jolly well humans do not need to care what other people say about them. And by taking your revenge by sending all those emails, it only shows your incapibility to think twice.

    Think. Don’t be so one-sided.

    I hope you can reflect on this incident and make the correct decision.

    [...] RT prompted me to this link and this link plus another one to Xiaxue’s blog which was one whole big hooha over handicapped toilets. To be fair to Xiaxue, I must say out one thing: Girl, you are not the only one using handicapped toilets. Almost EVERY LADY in my office level (that’s two different companies) uses it too!!! [...]

  46. Evian Says:

    Peter, you are not only a bloody hipocrite.. you are also a very childish, selfish man..

  47. GG Says:

    Hey, why don’t you XX supporters just cower back to XX’s site to give her support instead??? I’m sure she’s needing some TLC from you guys.

    Instead of buzzing around like useless flies, go do your slavely duties to XX and beg all the endorsers to sign her up again.

    Peter Tan!!!! Just ignore all these curs barking away.

  48. Tze Says:

    I believe a person is entitled to his or her own opinion.
    Must you people lamblast Xiaxue in such a malicious manner?
    What personal verendetta do you hold against this singaporean blogger?

    Im guessing there’s none.

    You just dont like the way she expresses herself.
    The way she dresses.
    Or even the way she looks, which is utterly ridiculous.

    Im not saying I am another maniacal screaming fan of Xiaxure oe her blog.
    But I simply cannot understand why, why WHY is it necessary to add your twocents worth of thrash talk in, when you dont even know her?

    Jealousy perhaps?

    Thats low.

    I wonder, as brightly as the human spirit shines in times of crisis, how much hidden grime and dirt are among those petty displeasures and jealousies there are too.

    Its a sad world, when one blogger cannot even post something out of her own heart without expecting wrathful, even downright childish snips from cowards sitting behind monintor, who simply cannot tolerate a girl who made it on her own just by blogging while they cant.

    sad.

  49. rachel Says:

    oh gosh what is wrong with the blogosphere nowadays? everyone is entitled to their own opinion so can we stop all the bitching already?

  50. ShaolinTiger Says:

    Yeah yeah, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and so is Peter, and so am I, and so is everyone else, so are all the commenters..

    Nothing new to see here, move on.

  51. defineme Says:

    to those who agree with peter’s comments and think that people who came here to slam peter are XX’s supporters, open your mind and wake up! people here are just stating facts. if you think we are her supporters, why don’t you look at it the other way round, and say that we are merely stating facts? the fact that you managed to ask us to go back to XX’s blog and offer her some tlc, honey, i know that she has moderated comments and stuff. the point here is, peter shouldn’t have made such a crude comment. and we’re not even touching on the fact that peter and his supporters think that xiaxue’s endorsements should be stopped. so stop fucking around thinking you’re always right.

    bloody bastards
