So sick in mind at such a young age. What will these be and propagate when they are older and mature?

A Singapore court has fined a French student S$600 ($465; £348) for licking a straw from an orange juice vending machine and putting it back into its dispenser.

Maximilien, who is studying in Singapore, posted the video of himself licking the straw on Instagram with the caption "city is not safe".

Didier Gaspard Owen Maximilien is 'truly sorry' for causing trouble, his lawyer says

The 19-year-old was "truly sorry" for causing trouble, his lawyers said.

Of course he is! He should have had $6000 in fine. Stupid guy studying in Singapore. His mom and dad should consider spending money on something that has a chance to give results.

Young people are engaging in idiotic behavior for social media clout. He should have been expelled from Singapore.
