lol. I don’t know about you guys, but I think this looks fake
XD
It’s old, but not fake.
Yea its real. And dont make fun of him. He’s me hero
You mean
“He’ s me heroes?
yea. that
Obviously fake, have you taken ID verification courses?
IDs are supposed to have the similar fonts, similar sizes, and all of that.
The fonts are way to f**ked up to be a legitimate ID
Actually, Batman is a city in turkey. so this kid looks turkish so I think this is real.
Turkey =/= Java XD And it does kinda say Javanese on the thing. Not Turkish.
well half his family could be turkish…….
it says singapore dumbass
Dude, you have no clue. I think you’d better look at the credentials of the ID verification courses you’ve taken… This is a real person, and I know him personally.
Confirm – it’s older than dinosaurs.
Photoshop was the first thing I thought of when I saw it. Just looking at the quality of the letters compared to the rest.
My second thought was some negativity about the douchbag that not only reiterates some tired old joke, but is not intelligent enough to actually make the poster correctly.
It’s real. I’m from Singapore. The black print on the pink identity card is this chalky texture…it always looks messed up when you scan it.
This image has been floating around for a few years.
Yup got to agree its real. I am a Singaporean too. Had a gd laugh when i 1st come across this image. That guy must have change his name by now.
I’m not from Singapore but I can confirm this is legit. I worked for a car rental agency for 5 years and I’ve seen every license known to man and this is indeed real.
is it the 13th month or the 13th day on his ID…..xD
13th day. In the real world, this is how people lay out dates.
The rational way to lay out dates is from smallest unit to largest (or largest unit to smallest for filenames). This is how people in most parts of the world write out dates.
Americans, not being quite as rational as the rest of the world, put the smallest unit in the middle and then get confused by people from other countries who put the smallest unit first.
This clearly isn’t an American identity card, so why expect them to lay out dates in the American format?
Ummmm…. We write out dates mm/dd/yy because that’s how you would normally tell someone the date in English.
I’ll assume you need an example:
Hi Brian-M, today is October (month) 20, (Day) 2010 (year). I labeled the month, day and year for you just in case you needed help.
The three ways you mentioned are all just as good. Americans don’t just write it that way for fun, they do it because that’s their language.
Also Americans usually don’t get confused by other forms of dates, the average person can figure it out (excluding you and other challenged individuals). Other forms of writing the date out are seen on other American documents too.
You think Americans are irrational and stupid, You’re the one that’s ignorant you dumb cock juggling thunderc**t.
Unfortunately for you…This is not an American document. You’re a retard. It’s obviously a Singaporean document. Secondly, if you don’t think we are irrational…then maybe you should take a look at how we measure things… you ignorant, dumb cock juggling thunderc**t. =P
lol thunderc*nt?!?!?!?! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We say it, 20th October 2010.
We write it such.
It is more then annoying when hundreds of documents come over from the US with the date format wrong.
We get many documents from many countries.
Many of them don’t speak english and some even traditionally use a different date format, but they can still get it right.
The problem is worse for days with numbers less then 12, for very obvious reasons.
I work in surveying, number formats are very important. Accidentally reading a plan from 5/6/09 (6th May), instead of the one from 5/6/09 (5th June) can be expensive. We aren’t talking, “oops, we need to move this pipe flange 50mm (that’s a metric measurement, you would probably call that 1.97inches)”, it is more in the order of “s**t, that 2.6Km(1.62mile) long causeway is 2.4m (7.9ft) low”.
This was an actual error, caused by an engineer reading a design that was labelled with the wrong date format. Very easy to do, because American’s typically don’t remember that the rest of the world is not like them.
Are you following, or do I need to start using words like thunderc**t? Or would you prefer I don’t talk about your mum?
lol I’m not arguing but I would like to point out that it could also be the engineers being he thought that all date formats are the same.
Your argument was completely valid (and this is coming from a Brit) until you said “you dumb cock juggling thunderc**t”. Now, you just look stupid.
Not necessarily.
You can say it’s the 20th of October, 2010.
Therefore: 20/10/2010.
And the dates look so much cooler when they end up laid out as 20/10/2010.
Most of the world uses dd/mm/yy.
Ireland here, England uses it, Spain, Italy, France, China, Japan.
Infact, America is the only one that I KNOW OF (not necessarily the only one) that uses mm/dd/yy.
It can be confusing across the world at the way dates are laid out.
That said. None of them are the wrong way.
Each is correct.
Infact, we all have the ability to set digital watches and our clocks on our mobile (cellular) phones to whatever format we like.
Logic: EVERYONE’S RIGHT, NO ONE’S WRONG. BUT IT CAN BE CONFUSING.
=D
Hey, here’s a novel thought: let’s not insult people we’ve never met simply by what country they live in! Now I know this is a radical and strange concept, but I think we should try it out. You never know what could happen!
Seriously, if you’re going to stereotype people by the country they live in, particularly if you do it routinely, go f**k yourself. American, British, French, Indonesian, I don’t care: don’t be prejudiced. Diceotron was just ASKING. If we don’t ask, we won’t learn. If we insult people every time they ask questions, we’ll never learn anything. Answer me this, if it’s not OK to judge people by their race or gender, why is it ok to judge people by their nationality? And don’t say “you can change your nationality,” as if it’s easy to pack up your whole life and move to another country. You should never judge people you haven’t met, and reading a single comment on the internet is not enough reason to judge someone. That’s why I’m not calling “Indeed” and “Brian M” bad people. I’m simply telling them that their comments were stupid and rude, and that if that represents the type of people they are, they should go f**k themselves.
Before you reply, let me take care of it for you. “You must be a stupid American because you used a swear word!” Swears exist for just this sort of situation: when one is so angry that other language simply cannot express it properly.
The next reply: “You’re a hypocrite, because you’re judging people by their comments on the Internet!” I said very specifically that these comments may not be a good indication of who these people are, and that they should go f**k themselves only if they do.
Finally, I leave you with this thought: clearly Batman bin Superman doesn’t mind Americans so much, as they created his namesakes.
I’m not sure whether your comment was directed at Andrew McKenzie, because you replied to his comment, but I dont see any insults or sterotyping by country in his post. Infact, from my perspective, he seems to be trying to calm the argument down.
YOU DIDN’T LIST GERMANY!!!111 RACIST MUCH JUST BECAUSE OF WWII????? SO GERMANY IS NOT AS GOOD AS OTHER COUNTRIES YOU LISTED??
neither did he list saudi arabia
or Hi Guy who hates Brian M (You’re name), today is the 20th(day) of october(month) 2010(year).I labeled the month, day, year and you’re name for you just in case you needed help.
Dont get all pissy at eachother it dosnt matter either way like hate him because he mocks the way you organize dates?
your, not you’re
this is real… he changed his name to this…. i saw it in an article… google : “f**ked up names” or smthng…. lol but this is real ..
“What’s your name?” “Batman. Batman Superman.”
LOL
Win. Very epicly.
My wife teaches ESL, and had a student from Indonesia or Singapore (I forget) recently who went by the name “Win”. She asked him what his name meant, and he confided that his parents named him “Windows 95″.
Batman Bin Suparman doesn’t sound so strange to me.
Well, I think your comment is “Win”
i know somebody from malaysia name Nationalisme, because he was born on our independence day. so yeah, of course i believe you.
Usnavy is a common name in some places in South America
what kind of race is javanese?? its impossibruh!
someone from Java you numpty
They’re from Java, one of the western islands of Indonesia.
I was just wondering, what did YOU think?
“hi, i’m batman… batman bin suparman, from java”
Singapore is the place of origin, Javanese refers to the ethnic group.
it looks shopped to me
it’s legit. his parents hated him so much,.. that’s why.
sadly, it is not
resopt
Who speaks Javanese.
Javalis…
Boso Jowo is Javanese in Javanese
Yes! Only a guy named Batman Superman can be born in the 13th month.
oh hai USA
Please tell me you are just a troll.
don’t feed the troll!!! only a troll would assume everybody in the world using mm/dd/yyyy format as they are.
next thing he would say Suparman is Batman’s family name. it’s actually a patronymic name.
13th day…5th month…
Most of the rest of the world uses the format day/month/year, so it is indicating the 13th day of the 5th month. Nice try, though.
Photoshop fail
might be fake, but the name under the english part is written in arabic letters and truly does say something along the lines of batman bin superman, except that it actually says suferman but was translated as suparman, unless of course if that arabic letter which normally is the letter “f” is closer to the letter “p” in javanese or whatever his native language is (there is no “p” in arabic). also bin means “son of”. traditionally a mans full name would be “your name” son of “your fathers name”, although in todays world it is now sometimes just a last name (ex most famously bin laden). just wanted to mention it cuz that would make his name technically batman son of superman.
Excellent explanation but my buzz was gone by the time I finished reading it. Thanks.
It’s just because most people in south east asia can’t pronounce ‘f’ or ‘v’ so they say ‘p’. Much like how westerners can’t roll their r’s or can’t get the Indian Intermediate v-w (as in Siwa or Shiva)
Looks like he’s been living amongst cryptonite. No doubt, he could get a lot of dates….
Poor photoshop.
FAIL.
umm, no. batman and suparman both are familiar name among java people. but honestly this the first time i saw those name together. his father (suparman) must have a good sense of humor, i guess.
Not photoshop, your life is Phaile.
poor eyesight…
FAIL
I am outclassed.
I know someone called Happy
Happy gilmore?
Joker is doomed.
What a waste of a picture. Let people who know how to make demotivation posters make them.
its a real singaporean IC.
My real name is “McLovin”
This screams Photoshop to me. If you look closely to the quality of the letters, they are different than the others.
this is photoshopped, i can see it on the pixels and the fact that you and i are dinosaurs.
i see what you did there
I’ll say what I’ve been saying for years, ever since this popped up on the web:
The text on these cards doesn’t scan very well. The black print always looks weird.
Singapore government anti-dinosaur technology.
Hei guys.
it’s not photoshopped! and “bin” means “son of” in this language. so his name is BATMAN SON OF SUPARMAN!
i know that because it’s me who made this one
Then it’s you who Failed. This was just lame.
actually “bin” بن is supposed to be pronounced ibin ابن, it’s not written like that because it’s between two names, that word is arabic:
ibin(u): son (of)
bint(u): girl /daughter (of)
ibny: my son
binty: my daughter
abna’ey: my sons
banaty: my daughters
bin is an arabic word.
Who wants a trip to Singapore to search for this 20 year old bloke?
I live there. I’ll start searching first.
the middle name “BIN” in Javanese means “son of”.. so most likely this could be mean Superman breeds a Batman
http://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=5
“Bin” means son of.
So that makes him…
Batman, son of Suparman!
Even cooler.
Batman will be very upset if he hears this insinuation…
wait, Batmans dad is dead… so that means only one thing… HE IS ADOPTED!
so, who did superman do?
There’s a city in Turkey named Batman.
This is old. Photoshopped, no
BIN in Arabic means son, so he is batman the son of superman LOL!
Oh gosh… that man have same tribe with me.. Just for information, not all Javanese name their children recklessly.. seriously.. what the hell his parent think?!
Hey! i’m javanese! i take that as an insult…..
Hang on, I have a Balinese name. Phew! But my cousins… yikes! try pronounce those and your tongue will explode
Lol, there’s a taxi driver named Royal Jelly. It’s not even fake. And I don’t even-
I don’t think the Javanese use ‘bin’ in names – most Indonesians didn’t even use surnames up until a certain point…
this is Little bit photoshopped , because his name is written in Arabic and that’s mean ” batman son of suffer-man “
actually its direct pronunciation…its for people who cant read standard ABC…so its really Batman bin Suparman
Hey guys its not photoshopped. Im from singapore. This is real. The Identification cards all look like that. The fonts look like that. Sorry, Not photoshopped
bin means “son of” in arabic, hence “Batman son of Suparman”
Yeah, this is slightly changed, because his last name in Arabic reads “Souferman.”
“I am Batman, son of Superman.”
Not bad though.
Bin is also German which makes like drunk Super Man saying:”Batman, Iam Superman”
It looks legit.
I am from Singapore and the “bin” is commonly used by the Malays to mean “son of”. And according to someone else the arabic script is accurate.
Although my understanding is that “Batman” is prounounced slightly differently (probably a Javanese way of prounouncing words). And Suparman is a supposedly relatively common name in Indonesia.
2nd coolest in the planet
Most coolest is……
CHUCK NORRIS
Wkwk, ini beneran ga ya fotonya?:D
LOL, is it real?:D
beneran gan! liat di nicetry.me
But Suparman cannot be Batman’s father!
His parents are DEEEAAAAAAAD!
make sense!
not in the real world mate! ^^
In response to your comment, why cant Suparman be Batman’s father? If he made batman’s mom pregnant before his death.. HE WOULD STILL BE BATMAN’S DAD right? OMG..U FAIL.
this is a real person!! NO PHOTOSHOP!
i saw this before on a friend’s facebook page… he was her dental patient!! just wondering how it ended up here…
best name evar (yes with an ¨a¨ not an ¨e¨)
Interesting facts
1. This guy is real.
2. Arabic translation to is never perfect. That’s why translating the quran is still debated.
3. Singapore is a tiny little country south of Malaysia, not a some place in china
4. It came out in the local newspapers before.
5. It’s not pronounced Batman or Superman like in the comics
6. The letters look funny because of the way the background of the Indentification Card is made for security purposes.
7. Many westerners are still narrow minded. Singapore is a first world country and has performed extremely well economically. Even the SGD (singapore dollar) is starting to gain prominence as a safe semi-reserve currency.
suck it.
okay, actually Suparman is a common name in Java… but BATMAN??? what the hell is kind of that name??? that’s one in a billion!!
In arabic, it reads : Batman bin suffarman.. But in one of Java island ethnics, Sunda, “F” or “V” can be readed as “P”…
That is officially the best name ever… in my mind.
In arabic, his actual name is pronounced as Betman Bin Sufermin.
Arabic =/= Javanese
it is in the course of my former job that i have come across this id card. i can vouch for the authenticity of the card..
The fonts are ok. Could be legit.
If it had an actual ID number.
See this one for reference:
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3202/2833500448_131190152e_o.jpg
For obvious reasons it is censored out so that no one can forge the identification card and commit identity theft using his details.
Common sense allows you to work out the dates properly.
If the middle number is bigger than 12, it’s most likely the format the Americans use.
If the left and middle digits are equal, it doesn’t even matter.
And if they’re both less than 12, it CAN be confusing but it doesn’t take much to work it out by paying attention to the ACTUAL CURRENT date.
Batman is the dudes name.
bin is the term which Arabs or Muslims in general use to denote “Son of”.
Suparman is the Batman’s father’s name.
Get your facts right -.-

AIRPORT SECURITY: What’s your name?
PASSENGER: Batman.
AS: Your real name, please.
P: My name IS Batman.
AS: Are you trying to be funny?! What’s your surname?
P: Superman.
Airport security handcuffs him & puts him in a locked security facility.
can’t believe this guys taking over the web though… seriously there are a million things you can do with a name like that! I am vengence! I am the night! I am.. Batman!
imagine what his pick up lines would be like…”Hi, I don’t mean to bother you but has anybody told you that i’m actually… (whispers).. Batman!”
the “bin Suparman” – son of Suparman- part just makes this the best name ever.
Batman: Dad I have no superpowers
Suparman: Son I am dissapoint!
This is real, and Batman is a real person; I’m Singaporean and I’ve got a friend who actually served in the same unit as him when he was in the army a year after I left it.
Those who claim it’s fake and think they know better because they went for courses etc, I’m sorry but you’d better go back and rethink whether you’ve wasted your time on that course…
Its real, it had a feature on the local newspaper once in Singapore
he is a muslim
I lol’d
this is REAL!!!!
SUPARMAN is a common javanese name. but BATMAN is not. his dad might has taken the opportunity.
FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT READ JAWI WRITING (yeah, the ones with arabic letters but in Malay-archipelago language) it clearly states batman bin suparman.
no one photoshops in that language.
actually it says (in arabic):
butmen bin sofarmen
Hey I’m Singaporean and this is how a Singaporean identity card (IC) looks like. It’s not the same as a driver’s license, we have another card for that.
It is pink for citizens and green for PR.
PR is blue. And, if I may add, it looks way better than the pink one.
he’s javanese?
hmm… he was born 3 days before me….
http://batmanbinsuparman.blogspot.com/
He could change his name to Bruce Kent . . .
I only came here because of nicepeter’s vid
haha.. This ID is real, not photoshop. I remember reading a list of Indonesian names in the back of taxi in Jakarta. laughing hard because Indonesians have funny names…. Many Javanese are immigrant workers in Singapore. Sure those people have great sense of humor, not like the ones who just fight over date and race and over analyze this picture while they don’t have knowledge about the world outside United States ^_^
i know this guy personally! other than that, tl;dr……good night folks
this is supposed to be a funny thing to lough about.not to start stupid useless debates
