My Bad Ideas Posts

As today is Father’s Day, I thought it only fit to have a post that was in theme with the holiday. Now we all know Mother’s Day is quite a commercial success, especially for the floral industry, but what about the dads of the world? Are they not allowed to enjoy floral arrangements that will last at most a week? Have no fear, Shirley is here. Presenting to you my latest product: Daddylions And no, it is not some perverse sugar daddy, or zaddy, or hot pappi product, but a genuine gift to show our token of appreciation to our fathers.…

21, the ripe age of some silicon valley entrepreneur who’s going to make the next uber for the ~ insert industry ~ industry. With technology not just on the rise but risen, consumer behaviour shifting from buying things to buying experiences, changing from calculating footprints in brick and mortar stores to calculating online conversion, business models of the past need to adapt to the present but most importantly be able to sustain what’s to come in the future. So how do we help these businesses survive? Let’s stop fighting millennials and complaining about how all we care about is our…

Welcome to another weekend post…or should I say Oui Kend. Here I am on post 20, which also happens to be the age I wish I were because youth is err’thang and it means that I could rewind life and avoid all the poor choices I’ve made in my life. JUST KIDDING ~whispers to self personal mantra “Life isn’t linear, life isn’t linear, life isn’t linear”~ This week’s post evidently has something to do with the weekend and as such I’d like for everybody to listen to the following song because although it’s been out for half a year, it’s got…

c o n c e p t:   Track and field, running on a Track, music Track, that Taylor Swift Track is whack. According to dictionary.com, A Track can mean the following: a structure consisting of a pair of parallel lines of rails with their crossties, on which a railroad train, trolley, or the like runs. Recording. to follow the undulations in the grooves of a phonograph record. etc etc etc see dictionary.com for more. Thus the concept of my idea this week lies in one word that can be used in many different ways. Like Donald Glover, who is an amazing writer, actor, producer, director, rapper, ruler of the universe, this word too serves many purposes. Okay Shirley let’s get back on track. We cannot compare the genius Donald Glover to this word. p…

Happy Mother’s Day to all :)! And no I am not in theme this week with the Holiday so don’t start getting worried about my mother’s health. I’d just like to take the time to let all the mother’s out there know how much we all appreciate how hardworking you are because I’m pretty sure being a mother is one of the toughest jobs out there. I’m a difficult human being and the fact that my mother has put up with me all these year’s, that’s cr@zy. I also get to witness my sister raising her children and I often…

Bonjour mes amis! This blogpost’s pun is one written in the language of lurvee. For those of you not cultured enough (JKJKJKJK) no judgement, vin in French means wine. Additionally, vingt in French means 20! Vingt Vins aka 20 Wines aka A casual Sunday afternoon for moi. p r o d u c t: A seasonal wine subscription service that provides you with 20 different wines every season. The crates will include a mix of red, white, rose, green, port, and other wine varieties depending on the season. Every wine is carefully selected by our sommeliers to shed light on up and…

Welcome to my 16th post! For those of you who don’t know me on a personal level, I’m going to divulge a secret to y’all. My goal in life is to become a crazy lady in a park that reads tarot cards for a small fee to all those that want to discover a lil sumthin’ sumthin’ about their future. At that point in my life I’d hopefully have long locks of unwashed hair and a pet pigeon sitting by my side. I personally believe I have strong intuition (a woman’s intuition babyyy…) and can just feel and channel people’s…

April 22 is the most important day of April after April Fools and 420. It is the day we celebrate EARTH! So to all my dearest baddies (yes I tried to give a nickname to my non-existent fans), Happy Earth Day! Hope that you guys got to enjoy the beautiful weather this weekend (depending on where in the world you are). In partnership with the Earth ,I have decided to make this week’s idea Earth-themed so that I can do my part in taking care of the planet. c o n c e p t: Ever tried googling “how to…

  kopi: Malay/Hokkien term for coffee kopi paste: a pun on the words copy paste; instant coffee that comes in a paste/syrup form c o n c e p t: The concept of this product stems from childhood breakfasts with Nesquik Syrup. Nesquik syrup provided that rush of sugar needed for any child who was too young to drink coffee (being all children). If you guys don’t remember this product let me do a quick google search for you guys: Does this trigger any memories? At first I was quite confused when I saw these, especially the ones that are smooth bodied…
