langkawi: funny restaurant

Posted by Sharon Pakir on Nov 30, 2011 in Funny | 0 comments

Traveling in Asia is always fun for the many Engrish moments it can provide. We saw some pretty funny signs on this trip but none quite as perplexing as this, in the main street of Langkawi:

one hand WHAT?!

Each day as we passed this sign, we stopped to ponder. Who was Debbie? Who would open an Irish pub and restaurant in Langkawi, Malaysia? And wait, WHO would GO there? And lastly, WHAT THE HELL IS A ONE HAND WONDER?!

So many questions. Any potential answers?

now that’s a real FAN

In the middle of Grand Final fever last week, I took this picture for S as I was driving through Glen Iris. I knew he would approve.

Geelong Cats fans, you can’t call yourself one until you go to start to clean you truck (see the frantic wipe marks?), and INSTEAD, write GO CATS in the dirt. Oh yeah.

more bedtalk

I have mentioned before that S thinks he’s hilarious.

Picture it. We’re cuddling, just before bed, indulging in some sweet nothings and romantic words. I don’t even remember what we were talking about, but I said, “No need lah!”

S: Ooooh, some Singaporean popped out!

Me: Honey, it’s not called “Singaporean”, it’s called “Singlish”.

S: There’s no such thing as ”Singlish”.

Me: Yes there is.

S: No there isn’t. “Singlish”, pfft, sounds silly.

Me: There totally IS. Wanna bet on it?

S: There is NOT such a thing as Singlish. Let me tell you this now.

Me (feeling triumphant at imminent win): How much would you like to bet on it??

S: [silence]

Me: How much would you like to bet on it?!

S: Umm…

Me: How much would you like to bet on it?!

S: I would very much like to bet on it!!! Very much! I would very much like to bet on it! Geddit? GET IT?!

He bursts into guffaws of laughter. Evidently at his killer combination of cleverness and charm.

love de foot! beauty foot!
