My VW Jetta Sport is almost 2 years old. In one of my earlier post, I mentioned some of the quirkiness of the car. Well, to console myself, I tell myself that no car is perfect, just like every person is bound to have some discomfort or pain here and there. One of the quirkiness that I discovered recently is that the left side mirror emits a squeaky noise whenever it folds and unfolds. It is kind of irritating and certainly very

I remember using it during my NS days for those heavy weapons like the GPMG. All the stubborn carbon and rust were easily removed with just one wipe.. LOL . .

Apart from cleaning M16 rifles, I used it often during my technician days as an NSF. This wonderful bottle won't disappoint me to crack open those stubborn rusted bolts and nuts that held those old L/Rs and 3-tons in one piece.

Ohh! My colt plus also has the same issue, when it closes it makes an irritating noise.. Later I go check it out, find the joint and spray some WD40 too!

  • Japan: The trend that became a turn-off

    Ahh Japan. The destination that many travellers desire. The perennial trending subject on social media. Japanese cuisine, culture, quirks, technology, and everything kawaii have inspired endless posts, stories, reels, YouTube videos, and TikToks. If one didn't know better, you'd think it was the dream destination on this planet. While I love the food, the service and the shopping, the sheer number of tourists (me included) has become a turn-off. I'm not talking about those who inconven

    5 ways the Polestar 2 Core Edition proves less can be more

    With a less-is-more approach, the Polestar 2 Core Edition offers a more value-for-money entry into the Swedish brand.  What first comes to mind when you think of Sweden? IKEA, and probably ABBA. But there's plenty more that has come out of Sweden besides flat-pack furniture, meatballs and impossibly-catchy pop songs. Founded as a standalone brand just eight years ago and headquartered in Torslanda, Sweden, Polestar is a design-forward electric performance brand that wants to put its Sc

    Japan is weird. I love it (Part 7)

    Ok, the title might be slightly misleading, but there is still a Japan-link.  So, pufferfish. Specifically, a wikipedia entry called Pufferfish mating ritual.  Long story short, one particular species of pufferfish make complex geometric circles in the sand to attract a mate. And this particular species is found only in Japan.  It's beautiful. It's bizarre. And it's absolutely amazing.  From the wikipedia entry: In a 2014 documentary by the BBC, narrator David Atten

    The fun in collecting postcards without (really ever) sending them

    I believe I may not be alone when I say that I’m quite the avid collector of postcards, but rarely ever send them out to family or friends. To some, this might seem counterintuitive, even wasteful. But for me, these miniature works of art serve a different purpose. They're windows into distant lands; time capsules of bygone eras; and conversation starters par excellence. In fact, in a city as fast-paced as Singapore, where our lives often revolve around our vehicles and the next destination
