The boredlela team: Steve Irwin, and his... turtles?

First of all, on a solemn note, the members of boredlela would wish to express our sincere sympathies to the tragic loss of Stephen Robert Irwin - a great man who was deeply passionate about animals and who died doing what he loved best.

now, on a less tense note, let's look at the effects of his passing on.


Crocodile hunter.
Crocodile hunter.
Crocodile hunter.

Steve Irwin, crocodile hunter.
Not turtle hunter.
Crocodile hunter.

I repeat, crocodile hunter.
so.. what's up with everyone and the turtles?


look at that!



Steve Irwin does this.


Not this.

So why are we getting these turtles?

we personally believe that attributing a turtle to a recently deceased man is a great disrespect. we all know too well that turtles, or 乌龟 in chinese, is often used to insult people for cowardice or simply to show contempt for nasty people.




That's why we shouldn't label people as turtles.

However, we know that singapore is world-renowned to have very compassionate and creative teenagers who dislike following the crowd. Our unique singaporean teenagers would also be very willing to help, in one way or another, the family and relatives of Steve Irwin to overcome this not-so-happy period.

And therefore our teenagers have thought of a very wise plan: to put something on their msn nicks to commemorate Irwin's death. here's what analysts believe:

"Due to the lack of a crocodile emoticon in "msn default emoticons", teens are turning to the closest reptile they can find, in this case, the turtle, as a means to commemorate the day where this great nature-lover passed on." However, a specific 'analyst' thinks that maths questions are a much better form of commemorating special days.

In addition, we feel that by putting turtles on msn nicks will contribute indefintely to aid the family and relatives Steve Irwin, because who knows, maybe someone out there will donate 3 cents to Irwin's family for each turtle on msn. well, at least those chain mails we receive all come from those people.

HENCE, we believe that we can no longer push the blame to singaporean teenagers for doing this. we need to blame someone else.

WE MUST SUE MICROSOFT for not forecasting Steve Irwin's death and subsequently creating a new update for msn messenger which includes a crocodile emoticon for the singaporean teenagers' use.

Meanwhile I guess we'll have to settle with the turtle... Or do we?




ahh. Across the internet, we have yet again discovered a new trend growing among youths. Till date, it has attracted FOUR. Not bad, for a movement that started only minutes ago!

It involves a ram and a mountain goat. Beats turtles, hands down.

We call this the animated fighting goat and ram movement.

How many of you have actually eated a ramly burger? well, technically they aren't made from rams. So there's no link. Sorry that was off the topic.

This movement plans to commemorate all the rams and goats who died in vain for children who don't finish their food. So please, please, children, please finish your food.

We even have a crest for our movement. it is as follows:

Designed it myself, i might add!
Please don't make me do a creative brief for this logo. I will scream at you, AK-47chromosome.
