A leaked video of the students urinating on others during a suspected hazing ritual at Ngee Ann Poly went viral, and police are investigating. Plot twist in the middle is that one of the students who was peed on said it was “consensual”. WTF? Elsewhere, the Orange Ballroom is forced to close for 20 days for allowing a couple to have THREE weddings with 275 guests in total. But who’s to blame - the couple or the ballroom?

The CEO of You Tiao Man posted her reply on Facebook, but the weirder thing is that the email was sent from a professional work email at PCF Sparkletots. People started hating on them, but was this whole incident even worth time in the public eye? Elsewhere, Clarence Chew became the first SG-born player to qualify for an Olympics singles event, but is that big a deal?

We have a heart-to-heart with Anthony Chen, arguably Singapore’s most decorated filmmaker (1 Cannes Camera D’or award + 6 Golden Horse awards baby!).

On 14 Mar 2021, the TODAY newspaper published an op-ed article criticising cancel culture and “wokeness”. It was by Dana Teoh, a student of media veteran Bertha Henson. It pissed a lot of people off, but why? Elsewhere, an article about an internationally-famous music conductor from SG who now delivers food also divided the internet. Why?

We finally watched the FULL interview and we try to make sense of it all. Was it fair? Why do some people hate it, while others love it? What could come next? And does it matter to Singaporeans? Elsewhere, the MCCY announced that they are investigating a potential copyright infringement of the song after videos of students in India singing it surfaced online. Is that necessary or is the Govt overreacting?

MCCY’s Minister Edwin Tong announced a national FOOTBALL project to encourage youths to train and go professional. It even includes a “football curriculum” for primary school students. But is it aiming too high? Elsewhere, ex-NMP Viswa Sadasivan appeared in a video released this week talking about casual racism and stereotypes. Is it too soon given his sexual harassment allegations?

Some people are sad, some people are angry and some people are pissed at the National Arts Council. Why? Elsewhere, spin cycle instructors have responded to news that 2 women were hospitalised with a potentially fatal muscle breakdown after class. But who’s to blame?

After a couple of attacks on people, a wild boar was captured in Punggol on the afternoon of Fri, 26 Feb. By the evening, it was euthanized due to “aggressive behaviour”. But was that really the best thing to do? Elsewhere, Boris Johnson’s decision to review vaccine certificates or “passports” sparked a petition against it which has gotten more than 200,000 signatures. But do they have a point or are they being unfair?
