Couple's loud quarrel at HDB block: She throws his pillow and bolster down, tells him to 'get lost from my sight'
A couple's quarrel could be heard throughout a Housing Board estate at night.
Stompers Wei Chen and Kyzo alerted Stomp to a video of the incident posted online on May 18.
The video shows the man standing at the foot of an HDB block arguing with a woman on a stairwell landing of the block.
Kyzo said: "There was lots of shouting and things escalated to the point where the wife kicked the husband out of the house with just a pillow and bolster for the night."
It appeared that the woman was angry with her partner, who was called "baby" by his female colleague.
She screamed from above: "Office people call each other baby? What's that?"
The man asked her to lower her volume, which made her angrier.
"Shhh what? You scared people hear? I want to let everyone hear," she yelled. "You betray me."
Defending himself, the man said: "She calls everyone in the office baby."
But the woman did not believe it and replied: "She calls everyone baby? You sure?"
He pleaded for her to stop.
She continued: "You don't tell me what to do. I tell you what to do," she shouted, before throwing a bolster and pillow to the ground floor.
"Go, go get lost from my sight. I don't want to see you tonight."
The man remarked, "Siao char bor," eliciting more screaming from the woman.
He picked up the pillow and bolster, and placed them in the back of a GetGo car parked nearby as the video ends.
One Instagram user commented: "Perfect GetGo ad, to be honest."
But another sympathised with the woman: "It looks and sounds funny… Until it happens to you… Betrayal is such a painful thing."
Just a few days earlier, another couple got into an argument at 3am in Sengkang.

Israeli army says bodies of 3 hostages recovered in Gaza

Of the 251 hostages seized during the assault, 49 are still being held in Gaza, including 27 the Israeli military says are dead. PHOTO: AFP - The Israeli military said on June 22 that it had recovered the bodies of three hostages in Gaza, more than 20 months after they were abducted by Hamas militants. 'In a special operation... the bodies of the hostages Ofra Keidar, Yonatan Samerano and Staff Sergeant Shay Levinson were recovered from the Gaza Strip yesterday,' the military said in a statement. Mr Samerano's father had announced earlier on June 22 that his son's body, which was taken into Gaza after he was murdered in a kibbutz by the territory on Oct 7, 2023, had been recovered by the Israeli army. He paid tribute to 'the brave soldiers of the IDF (Israeli military) and the Shin Bet' security service in a message posted on Instagram. Ms Keidar, a 71-year-old mother of three, was also killed in a kibbutz and had been abducted, while 19-year-old tank commander Levinson 'engaged and fought terrorists on the morning of Oct 7 and fell in combat', a statement from the military said. The attack by Palestinian militant group Hamas on Israel in October 2023 resulted in the deaths of 1,219 people, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official figures. Of the 251 hostages seized during the assault, 49 are still being held in Gaza, including 27 the Israeli military says are dead. Israel's retaliatory military campaign has killed at least 55,908 people, also mostly civilians, according to the Health Ministry in the Hamas-run territory. The UN considers these figures reliable.

Woman slammed for using restaurant chopsticks to feed pet dog

Photo: Freepik (for illustration purposes only) SINGAPORE: A woman has come under fire online after she was seen using restaurant chopsticks to feed her pet dog during a meal at a hotpot restaurant in Bugis. The incident reportedly occurred on the evening of June 7 at around 7pm at Bugis BBQ and Hotpot, located at Bugis Cube. A diner, who witnessed the interaction, captured the moment on video and submitted it to citizen journalism platform Stomp. In the video, the woman is seated at a booth with her dog standing on its hind legs next to her. According to the eyewitness, the woman was seen attempting to feed the dog using her chopsticks. 'I even saw the lady trying to feed the dog with her chopsticks. I think it's kind of inconsiderate,' the witness told Stomp. The act drew backlash from members of the public, many of whom expressed concern about hygiene and etiquette in shared dining spaces. A spokesperson for the restaurant clarified the establishment's pet policy and told Stomp, 'Pets are allowed in the outdoor areas of our restaurant. However, regarding the customer feeding the dog with her chopsticks, our staff were not nearby and had no knowledge of the incident.' The spokesperson added that due to the size of the restaurant, it is not feasible for staff to monitor every customer closely. 'As our restaurant is quite large, it's not possible or appropriate for our staff to constantly watch every customer, as that would be considered impolite,' they explained. Following the incident, the restaurant has taken steps to remind staff of hygiene expectations and customer conduct. 'Our manager has informed all staff members to make it clear to customers that they are not allowed to use our utensils to feed their pets,' the spokesperson added. While some online comments defended the woman's affection for her pet, many others called for stricter enforcement of dining etiquette, particularly in shared dining environments like hotpot restaurants, where utensils often come into contact with communal dishes.
