Weird things

Okie...Family function is over.

Like finally.

I was gonna write about something else today, but I just heard something from outside, as though it was beckoning me...

Using a loudspeaker.

Yesh. It's almost that time of year again.

The 'auction period'.

Where people scream out prices like there's no tomorrow.

Nope I ain't talking about Sotheby's .

The auctions I'm talking about aren't that high tech, as in using signs to signify a bid.

Yes. Now you know. It's those chinese auctions.

Where people scream in dialect and boast about their bids, and later realise that they didn't bring the $9k they promised the organiser.

I was eating fried chicken...(Mmm..) when I heard the speakers blar,

The segment below will be in semi chinese and dialect/hokkien.

" Gor cheng!"
" Wu qian ba shi ba!"
" Luck cheng gor bei puai zep puai!"
" Liu qian wu bai ba shi ba!"

And inevitably, people get confused.
" Liu qian puai bai puai zap ba kuai qian!"
Like sheesh...No skills = don't attempt multi-linguallism.
(Hint: I doubt there's such a word.)
Up till now that guy is still screaming his throat sore, and again...I hear,
" San qian gor ba shi(1) shi(2) kuai."
Like seriously...
Can't be bothered.
