When Si Wen missy dotty throws one her famous tantrums it’s funny to see to how the entire brotherhood troupe fall over themselves trying to put back humpty dumpty.
Funny. Sad . Tragic. When someone like Darkness has to stoop so low.
IF IT WAS ME, I WOULD JUST INVADE!
I would post over there, but it is the comments box is permanently disabled (eyes roll).
Typical.

This missy dotty is a cunning clever little vixen. She is what the cantonese would call a smiling tiger. Nothing about her is genuine. Even the photo in dotseng.wordpress.com happens to be at 5 years old. Another thing. I have a friend who knows her at work. And this woman is famous for throwing her weight around when she doesnt get her way. A real first class spoilt brat. Today she is significantly rounded and older and unlikely to even fit into her lithe cheong sam. As for the knee jerk reaction of the bros. It says alot. For one it speaks of preferrential treatment. We all pay the same subscription. But it appears some are treated not only like royalty but they even get to throw pies at darkness. And that idiot on this occasion even came out with his knee pads and started his begging.
Bye Bye. Ive had enough of this scally wagging and I have written in at least 58 billion to ask why there is even a form of apartheid in the BP. But on every single occasion my letters are meet with stoic silence.
February 16th, 2009 at 3:56 pm
And another thing Dotty. Yeonriji (The Tree that binds) has been dedicated to at least 15 different girls since it was published. As for Darkness begging account describing you as his muse and inspiration that has been recycled at least 50 times, each in different variations.
Just thought you should know about that small detail. But that Darkness is certainly smooth, this is what I call expert. right down to the music by Kan M Y. everything flawlessly pitched to perfection. True professional. What a pity. Really, what a pity.

As ever, thanks for the feature…

$58 billion up in smoke. You know what? I don’t even know how many zero’s there is in that sum. I guess if you stacked it all up in $50 notes, it would probably be higher than the Petronas twin towers with plenty more to spare for even a few flag poles.
This is very depressing. And when things are so depressing, no wonder everyone just wants to listen to a bit of Kan Min Young.
The BP will be back tmr. Hang in there. We are just fixing some technical glitches.
Try not to muck the threads here. If you must post, SLF 1 is open. You can all do it there.

Good Evening Ladies,
How shall I put it; without running the risk of getting shot up here? We all know the average brotherhood press reader (love section, not social political OK) – happens to be female; professional; single and desperately looking for a soul mate; now the $64 million question (seems like loose change right these days, should be $58 billion) is what type of man are you ladies looking for?
To be frank with you; I don’t have a clue; as every woman I’ve gone out with seems to be far more interested in my wallet than me (as you can see I have impeachable taste for leather goods); but this Darkness character has to know; that’s to say; if you think long and hard about it; there is NO way, for him not to know; he can’t write so many love stories; if he didn’t know.
I mean, if you think long and hard about it; it can never be hello, bang, bye – although that’s really what’s going in a man’s head; I mean, if he wrote it that way; its just doesn’t come around; it would read like a washing machine instructional manual or something – so he has to master the art of the slow burn; EXACTLY like the way; he wrote to Missy Dotty – now, if you combine what’s written with lets say Kan Mi Youn’s score; then no decent girl stands a chance; she will be all thumbs and butterflies by the time she gets to the second paragraph.
Always remember that’s all it boils down too at the end of the day; the right music and some nice flowery words; no one ever reads the brotherhood because it is real; if any of you really wanted that; most you will probably be married already – right?
But if I were ANY of you; I wouldn’t even trust Darkness with my granny’s bamboo back scratch – nothing personal, at the back of head; one thing bothers me; its just scares me how he’s able to splice emotions to wafer thin slices; he’s definitely not the man I will ever trust; if I were a woman – I would feel naked and trust me, that wouldn’t be a pretty sight ladies, not by half.
Good night Ladies

Nice chats there. Thanks SD.

“As I walked up to the lady; I am reminded it isn’t true what they say: we are all born into life – for most, life just waits there like a closed door. It’s only when we decide to walk through it – that we really begin to live, until then we’re just existing. And anyone who tells you different; just hasn’t lived.”
How true. I don’t think Darkness just woke up one day and wrote this. Life doesn’t work that way.
I agree with these massive losses. Everyone seems to be more interested in listening to Kan Mi Youn.
Seems to be spreading to the Malaysia as well, Kan Mi Youn that is.
One might think, we never ever lost $58 billion? Was that fantasy as well?
February 17th, 2009 at 8:05 am
For me, I’ve walked through that door, I lived. Now life is over. $58 billion is gone!
Gone with the wind. Plus another $200 billion from Get It Coming also gone.
How depressing can it be? I hope I am dreaming – we never lost so much …..
$58 billion + $200 billion!!! Thats $258 billion!!!
You can rebuild the World Trade Towers, 4 Petronas Towers, Taipei 101, Bridge of San Francisco, the Eiffel Tower, and Las Vegas Sands, etc …….and still have some spares for retirement in the Hawaiian Diamond Resort …. alas all gone, all gone …..
My life is finished.
February 17th, 2009 at 12:25 pm
Yes, I thought that much, the Kam Mi Youn score is probably an attempt by Darkness at satire as its coincidentally entitled, “I feel sad bye bye.” I dont wish to break up something that is obvious is very nice and sweet. But may I ask SD why, there has been absolutely no response by the Brotherhood Press to this mega loss? Everyone in the internet is talking except you people / the most brilliant minds should be ripping this up and throwing it to the dogs….or maybe they are just playing the same tune?
Thanks.

I think at S$58 billion. This is not going to be just a passing meteorite that will go away and be forgotten soon. That’s not realistic.
This is very big. In scalar terms its an Everest or a Panama canal, so its not going to just go away quietly into the history books.
What we say is not important; my feel is the serious people will eventually study it for what it has to offer; they will sieve through the carnage; and very little will escape their scrutiny; as that is really the preoccupation of serious men.
They will do it NOT because they hate ho ching or Temasek; but bc NO intelligent person or institution can AFFORD to move forward without first understanding WHERE and ALL it went so wrong.
They will study it bc NO one can afford to make those sort of mistakes – all you need is one or two of them and you r really back to square one.
Trust me this is bigger than all of blogosphere by a few billion times. This is very big. Trust me when I tell you this no going to just walk quietly into the history books, it is not whether the truth will emerge, but rather when.
We dont even need to do a thing.

My feel is judging from the readership trends these few days many of you may still prefer more Kang Mi Youn stuff – it happens sometimes, when the social political scene collides with the love story market segment.
We try our best to keep them separate (its not easy), but like I say, we dont live in a black and white world.
I have spoken KOHO, he tells me our newly commissioned line Ekunaba based in Malaysia is very hot with the love story market segment flooding in; while the social political in SG is stone cold, hardly moving; so the BP will NOT power up just yet; we will instead use this as an opportunity to fix some of the glitches in dotseng.
Meanwhile, I will get Darkness write some more of his nonsense that some of you like so much and post it in dotseng and SLF 4 -5.
Some of you may have posted there; pls note, if your comments dont appear; its bc it needs to be worked on. So pls dont go hoping mad.

And let me tell you all another thing (as I need to go in for another conference call) abt this S$58 billion swan dive; things MAY get worse. Folk dont jump ship mid-way for no reason.
So NO amount of short-circuiting, code spamming etc is going to make that sort of gigantic elephant disappear; that may happen in the make belief world of the MSM; but that’s NOT how things work in the internet.
So there is no rush to take a bite out of this elephant; we have all the time in the world.
Meanwhile, enjoy.
