MSN Daily One Liner: POLY vs JC WAR: http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/news/story/0,4136,104850,00.html?

Background: The New Paper carried an article about a flaming war that has broken out between JC and Poly students at an online forum (maple forum). It started when a JC student complained about the increase of KS-ing (kill stealing) on maplestory and accuse the KS-ers to be a poly student as it is currently the poly holidays, the post read. 'The reason why you see ks-ing is because the polys are having their holidays now - who doesn't know that a lot of the poly people are just stupid, childish and mindless kids?' Support fire was given by other forum members saying the Poly students are inferior to JC students and hence a flaming war resulted when Poly students fight back.

Excerpts of Exchange:

HEATED EXCHANGE 1

Redpony: The fact that we can do better in all the exams up till now means that we have a better learning ability than the rest of you. We still do well in subjects we don't like. Put an average JC student in a poly and he'll ace everything. HTML? Teach it to any JC student and he will definitely master it in less than half the time poly people take. I don't see how the poly kids can ever do better than any jc boy when they can't even do well for the O Levels. O Levels is just elementary stuff. Simple maths, simple science and basic mastery of your languages.

n34tsd: It's wrong of you to stereotype that poly students are dumb, childish, and can't make it to JC. I was from poly and am doing well in the university now. Who are you to call other people stupid, mindless and childish? You are being childish and pretty mindless in doing that. No one has the right to call anyone else stupid - you may be smart in your studies, but how street smart or how good are you in hands-on work?

HEATED EXCHANGE 2

Redpony: Why are you getting so upset over the things I said? The truth hurts doesn't it? I really wish I have as much time as the rest of you. Poly people have all the time. Like you need to put in any effort to get a diploma. LOL. I can't maple as much. I'm just browsing the forums and doing my work at the same time.

GospelFlame: Me upset? Nah, im just amazed about how your mind thinks. Such arrogance.
