speak singrish campaign
Speak Singlish somemore?!
Sgn Mrt Station
Little ah-seng shop (chinese version of mama-shop)
Enter jazz and epiphobic.
Jazz to the bored shop-aunty : Aunty,Green-tea please
Aunty : (Looking through the racks of drinks & holds up a bottle of green tea)....Bottle can?
Jazz & Epiphobic : Can , can
Aunty : (puts the bottles back inside, looks around somemore and produces 2 cans of green tea)
Jazz points out the lost-in-communication caamedy-time to epi, in tamil. Epi notices that the cans have replaced the bottles, registers the linguistic gap and cracks up *in retrospect it might have been in reaction to jazz's tamil prowess*. Eitherway, she gets a giggle-fit and flees the shop.Jazz is stuck there, stifling her own guffaws in vain and paying for the drinks, while trying to ignore the shop-aunty's dirty looks the whole time.
Perfect way to drive home the point....who needs phua chu kang?
