Richard Stallman coming to Singapore

Poor Singapore people. They don't realize what they have gotten themselves into.

I think we do. Some of us, anyway.

It's funny to think that 20-30 years ago, Stallman might not even have been allowed into the country. IIRC we used to turn away long-haired hippie types or take them aside for questioning.

Don't buy him a parrot!

Ha Ha! we won't lol!

And don't ask him about his breakfast plans!

Perhaps playing "OB Marker Bingo" at his speech is in order?

Shucks, I have my first holiday in 9 months, and it has to coincide with his talk...

Is this because you live in Singapore and are going away somewhere else but don't want to miss his talk?

Or is it because you live elsewhere and are planning to holiday in Singapore but can't stand the idea of being in the same city as stallman?

His earlier talk in Singapore 13 years ago was a life changing moment for me. And dammit, "dont buy him a parrot" gets upvoted and you and I are getting downvoted .... for what exactly?
