Top 10 “Toilet Break” jokes
Inspired to do a David Letterman, so here goes..
10. Will the World Toilet Organisation give Singapore toilets a new rating criteria called The Escape Clause? One toilet at a Singapore’s detention center is already in the running for AAA grade.
9. Some terrorist websites have named that special toilet, “Flushing Meadows”.
8. He isn’t just a escaping terrorist, he is also a toilet breaker!
7. Also overheard that the World Toilet Organisation’s Toilet College (Yes there is such a college) is going to introduce a new module called Toilet Escort Duty 101.
6. Exam invigilators must score a C+ or above in the Toilet Escort Duty 101 module before they are allowed into exams. Detention center officers are required to pass with higher grades.
5. “To flee or not to pee” is said to be one the exam questions.
4. Everybody still agrees that Singapore is a safe country, as long as the toilets doesn’t break.
3. Anti-terrorists agencies are now using toilets as a new terrorist escaping detection system. As they say, whenever a toilet breaks, a terrorist limps away.
2. Captured suspected terrorists classifed as Potty Trained will now be put in maximum security detention centers. Non-Potty trained suspected terrorists will remain in light security detention centers.
1. The escape terrorist, when caught, faces an extra charge of not flushing the toilet after use and might be penalised with a maximum fine of SGD500.
To err is minister, to forgive is not so divine

Suspected JI terrorist leader, Mas Selamat, made a “toilet break” last Wednesday. Minister for Home Affairs, Mr Wong Kan Seng, apologised for the escape but a Singapore blogger highlighted the coffee talk shop about why they arn’t so forgiving of the Home Team leader’s honest mistake.
The minister’s two million dollar salary per annum seems to be the greatest source of discontent.
Popular blogger. Mr Wang of mrwangsaysso.blogspot.com wrote,
It is a very disappointing day for me, to realise how inept and useless the Singapore government has become. To think that we pay the world’s highest ministerial salaries to our political leaders. Wong Kan Seng is paid two million dollars per year and he cannot even keep an arrested man under proper lock and key. A terrorist has escaped, for goodness sakes.
I think Wong Kan Seng should resign. Terrorism knows no borders, and Wong Kan Seng’s mistake potentially endangers the lives of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of people - not just in Singapore, but in other countries as well. All over the world, elected politicians have been pressed to resign, for much less serious matters.
Mr Wang continued to describe that the greater escape artist might have been Mr Wong. Mr Brown shares the same sentiment while Mr Bean is still on a holiday.
Wrote another popular Singapore blogger, Mr Brown,
Anyway, Singaporeans need not worry we will lose any million-dollar senior talents like ministers, in the light of this debacle. They won’t be asked to resign or even take a pay cut. We are not like those free-wheeling and chaotic governments from Western democracies that make their leaders accountable for every little thing.
Sorry is the hardest word to say and a newly formed blog, Nobody Writes, crucified Mr Wong Kan Seng’s facial expression when he apologised for the escape.
Nobody wrote,
My question to you, Mr. Minister: Why are you smiling when you were relating the ’someone suspicious on the roof’ incident?
Personally, this is a matter of grave concern and there is nothing to laugh about. What message is the Minister trying to bring across? Its not a joke, mind you!
There’s a video link on the above blog and some bloggers are even starting to say that the sorry was scripted.
The two million dollar minister must be hoping right now that there is a million dollar man out there who can capture the escaped suspected JI terrorist soon even as Singapore enters the 7 days mark of his escape.
