Look Ma!

So I googled myself after watching Jay Leno interview these 2 old geezers who had the same name and lived pretty similar lifestyles but lived on opposite sides of the globe.

As usual(Did the same many times before), Shawn Seet turned up results about an unknown director/producer in the States.

This time though, I took the added step of ALSO googling(and yahoo-ing) my full name, Shawn Ronald Seet, and came up with some interesting results.

Readers should know that I wrote a letter(see-and-type version by another guy) to The Straits Times(which was heavily edited) a while back shooting down this woman's insane idea to have women-only carriages on the MRT because apparently, groping was outta control. Apparently.

This dude recognises what I'm trying to say. Dumping the whole lot of us in with the gropers(WHICH ARE RAMPANT! lmao) is insanely stupid.

Next, Shawn Ronald Seet (I am inherently suspicious of anyone who carries this particular surname) cries out that a previous letter about having women-only carriages in MRTs is unfair to men. His points are all valid - the initial call by a certain Mdm Lam Yar Ee is incongrously stupid, and our friend Shawn here rips her argument to shreds (more manpower needed, gender biased etc.), sarcastically concluding we should have three carriages for men and three for women, thereby also protecting men from "frisky old aunties". Still, for the original notion to even be put forward is rather scary; does this not remind anyone of 1950s Montgomery or worse, apartheid-era South Africa?

Hey dude! What's wrong with my surname! You seet-o-phobe. lol. To be honest though, I too have reservations with people who have certain surnames. Damn me.


Then there's this guy who recognises my point but is a softie who believes in factual reasoning and does not appreciate the "what-could-happen" stance. I only guessed as much because he acknowledges my points but believes that sarcasm and careful use of words should NOT appear in full-sized publications. At least I gathered as much.

Anyway, the dude then goes off to write a letter to me in his blog because he knows he can never get it published. lol.

So now I sit here wondering how come I get more hits on FusionStream than on my real name. Damn.
