Three Character Classic

Well... not exactly the Three Character Classic but definitely three words at a time.

Overheard at the cashier of a clothing store:

Cashier: Want join member?
Customer: Member got what?
Cashier: Member got point.
Customer: Point do what?
Cashier: Point exchange things
Customer: I dun want
Cashier: Forty-one dollars please
Customer (digging into purse after giving cashier a $50 note): Give you coin...
Cashier: Ten your change

Customer walks off...

Gulp! I'm next.

Look what I got for my mum for Christmas. I know it's late for buying Christmas presents online but there's never a good time for making the lives of others warmer and better.

Join me in supporting The Riverkids Project:
In Cambodia, children are sold as debt slaves, domestic drudges, illegal adoptions, cheap labour and child prostitutes. There are many ways to fight child trafficking. The Riverkids Project aims to stop child trafficking before it can even start.

Buy something from the store now! Shipping to Singapore is free! They've got lovely stuff you can definitely use.

SEX always goes long and far...


Quick! What are the three classics of advertising?

Here's a hint, based on what this company from Hong Kong has done on their re-positioning:


Sorry, mature audiences, you've been detoxed from Long Far Health Products.

And... the three classics of advertising, which are fail-safe, at least in getting attention are (in no particular order):

(1) Sex
(2) Babies
(3) Cute Pets

Not even a celebrity can outshine these in a TVC or print ad, unless the celebrity is classified under one of the 3 categories.

Merry XXXLMAS!

For a guilt-free Christmas, who wouldn't lurve Chunky Pam?

Misheard or Misunderstood?



Overheard in the office...

"Ya! But once I do already, you cannot find my S-O!"

Hint: You have to read the above quote out loud.

Translation:

"Once I make the entry, you would not be able to find the same sales order (S-O)"

What I want for Christmas


Looks like loads of fun for about 8 quids! Too bad they're out of stock.


Do you hear what I hear?


My friend went to Burger King for lunch and developed a listening ear from a value meal:

Deconstructive Criticism


Overheard at IKEA...

Woman A: Want to try?
Woman B: It's not cooked right?
Woman A: It's cooked wan. It's smoked salmon.
Woman B: OK. Let me try a bit.

Woman A (puts salmon to nose): Smells like fish! (eats salmon) Aiyoh! So salty. You better be careful. So salty can get sick wan you know.
Woman B: Your meatballs also very unhealthy what. A lot of fat you know.
Woman A: But salt worse. Can get high blood pressure.
Woman B: Aiyah... never always eat so it's OK.
Woman A: I also never always eat here. My husband lah. His favourite!
Woman B: My husband also! I scold him. He eat so many unhealthy things...

And so it became a husband-bashing session...

By the way, choping is alive and well at IKEA cafe, albeit with classier-looking packages:

Chinatown's Toots Thielemans?


You never know who you might bump into at Chinatown.

Note the red and blue hair. I wonder if he colored it himself.
