Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
I took a pic which I’ll dig out.
Who the fuck shits in a bin when theres an accessible toilet opposite?!
Everyday I pass signs forbidding me to defecate, urinate, spit, drink and cause harrassment and alarm..
Because without those signs I would have done all 6, simultaneously.
Heres the sign though, seriously... (lol):

Their faces say it all.. God help us if we actually need to put signs up to stop people shitting in the high streets..
You get a lot of this shit here.

Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
No pic but we went up a small road in Ireland heading to a village and came on a big orange sign with-
WRONG WAY
TURN BACK
It is weird here because although English is a primary language for a lot of people most Singaporeans simply don't have the same level of sophistication that you find in the West, or at least not the version of English that you and I speak.
There are a lot of examples of 'misuse' of English that are perfectly normal here- for example the word 'revert' is used in place of 'reply'.
For example: "Will send over the draft Letter of Intent now and get back to you once they reverted." is a message I got earlier today.
There is a lot of it- and some of it is thoroughly entertaining.
The word blur means 'slow to understand'.
If I said 'Emp is blur like sotong' I'd be saying that he has no idea what he is doing.
When Emp is going on about something crazy I might say 'Emp, me catch no ball', meaning I don't understand what you are saying.
I might then say to Emp "How I know you, lah?", meaning 'you've just aid something really dumb and I'm embarrassed that I know you'.
There is a portmanteau called 'Corright' which is a combination of 'Correct' and 'Alright' and basically means 'extremely correct/right'.
My favourite misuse is 'Killer litter' which means things thrown out of windows, usually out of high rises that has the potential to kill. Yes it is actually a thing here.
But when it comes to advertising and such they try to use 'correct English' and some of them just don't have it, so they use google/dictionary/thesarus and you end up with 'Rollick in the Moment', or this airport sign:
or this sign in a HDB:
It is a deeply weird place.

1 - Sign next to a spiral slide at local softplay centre
"No duel sliding"
(Fantastic image!)
2 - Desert board at my local pub
"Missipissi mud pie"
An acquired taste I'd imagine!
