Lies and scams

It has come to my realisation that I haven't been very introspective these few days. But if I could ever find time to sit down and do some self-reflection, I'll probably fall asleep instead of doing some self-evaluation. I lead a very boring life on my own.

And I'm so lazy, I keep doing retrospective entries. Yesterday was adequately fun, although I'm complaining about too little quality time spent together (and am still complaining about it). It's been a looooong time since the 4 of us karaoke-d together, and this time we've got two VIPs.
Haha.
But it was fun (our dear Jane never fails to entertain us, and my pitch always manages to run faster than you can say "zao xia!"). Of course, Jane had her first assessment of another of her prospective "grandson-in-law". Haha. And the microphones kept failing us! Raymond would burn those mics if he saw them, Jack said.
*Laughs*
And can I mention that the service was adequately horrible enough for me to do serious contemplation before stepping into that place again? I even feel sorry for even forking out just $5 for the membership fees for 5 years. And you'll still have to pay their $10 cover charge for diluted tea, diluted honey, that miserable bit of tidbits, horrible attitude of the crew... And all these KTV places just have to keep cheating us of our money. K Box's so-called "$1 Cover Charge Monday" is just another money-spinning scam in which they charge you:

$1 Cover Charge +
$5+ Drink +
$2.50 Tidbits +
$2 KOD Charge +
7% GST +
10% Service Charge +

$15 PER PAX

Wow.
SOOOOOOOOOOO cheap.

I'd rather throw my Yamaha G-245II seven storeys down then to give in to their exorbitant charges. So much for that $1 Cover Charge.

I'm making a promise to all my friends here, I'll have a KOD-ready karaoke system in my house 8 years down the road. Bank on my words.
