How To Throw Shade, Politely
We all have that one girl we can’t stand. She could be a colleague, a frenemy or a school mate. Most of the time, we remain civil and practice restraint, even though they test the limits of our patience.

1. May you experience an MRT breakdown when you’re late for work.
2. May you be called an “auntie” by a teenager.
3. May your Koi bubble tea explode in your face when you try to poke a straw through it.
4. May you always be out when your Taobao parcel arrives so that you’d have to specially make a trip down to the post office.
5. May your period start and leak through your favourite underwear, and onto the SBS bus seat.

7. May your makeup be on fleek only on the hottest, most humid day of the year.
