Story my dad told me just now:
Guy A: I have a friend who is SOOOO tall, when he stands, his feet is on the ground and his head is touching the sky!
Guy B: My friend is more impressive than your friend! When he lies down, his back touches the ground and his belly touch the sky lor!!
Guy C: Oh really? I have a friend who is even better. His bottom lip can touch the ground, and his upper lip can touch the sky.
Guy A & B: Yeah sure... don't bluff.. how is that possible? Where is his body then?
Guy C: Oh he doesn't have a body. He only has a big mouth.

i like this story... although you gotta know a bit of malay to figure it out..
there was a village which chief sent out 4 scouts to the world to check on the most marvellous things and report in a year's time...
scout A said:
i saw a water-buffalo.. the buffalo must have been as tall as the trees. the footprints the creature made were turned into ponds which fish could swim in... it was truely an amazing creature
scout B said:
i saw a huge tree.. so huge it would take 5 days to walk around the trunk.. twenty villages lived under the shade and the fruit fed each village for a week
scout C said:
i saw a massive rattan.. the girth was bigger than a tree and it covered the area of 100 villages! the thorns were as big as trees!
scout D, disgusted at seeing the other scouts lying outright said:
i saw a giant drum.. it was massive.. it had to be made out of the giant tree you saw... the skin had to be made from the giant water-buffalo and it had to be secured by the giant rattan.... and when the village sounded it, it had a great sound.. it went "BOHONG!! BOHONG!!!"

I nearly died trying not to laugh out loud in class.

Okay, I finally got my chequebook.
I also submitted a full 1000-word formal letter of protest to one of the bank branch's managers.
The bank manager has just called me and he promised me, on his honour, that a full investigation would be carried out. I told him that reneging on that promise would lead to me closing down my accounts and parking my money with their competitors. A full airing of this whole fiasco in the media would then follow.
It sucks that I'm doing all this over one stupid chequebook. But they forced my hand.

Like I told them, I'm being a difficult customer, but only because they made things difficult for me.
I am normally not evil enough to get others into trouble and jeopardizing their careers, but they brought out the worst in me.
As it is, before them, I don't ever remember letting loose a whole stream of profanities while ranting....

ah... KB...
There's something wrong with my hotmail so I sent it via my work email instead...
U shld have 2 vids in mp4 format...

You know..... that whole stream of 'F***, F***, F***, F***' that I let loose in this thread last week....
In real life, I don't do that...... that's no way for me to be taken seriously.

when i want to make complaints, i speak softly and slowly.. and very seriously while looking at them intently... the Hannibal Lector treatment..
scares the crap out of most people, especially those you will have an advantage over because they screwed up...

that's why i wonder if it's easier if i just blurt it out at that person/team/dept etc instead of silently stabbing my diary with the penoh yeah...it only happens with work/office

Looking at the mash potato thread. I told the guy they do sell mashed potato gravy in the supermarket and open his eyes to see.
He said it’s not helpful. So I must tell him which aisle to look for it too? Wow.
