Caning is something I can't imagine. It won't change my behavior other than to prevent me from going to Singapore for more than a few days. Not that there is much interesting to see there anyway.
I'm sure the memory of caning would really fuck up my life in a big way. I would probably dream of tracking down the judge, caner, a few wardens and violently killing all of them in a mission of revenge.
Whenever I read about caning, it confirms my belief that Singapore isn't going anywhere.
