of mortuary

Just now at NTUC Fairprice

Lancerlord: Excuse me, may I know where I can get NTUC vouchers?

Cashier: You can get at our office.

Lancerlord: Where is your office?

Cashier: You walk that way. On the right side.
* Cashier points in a general direction *

Lancerlord: Is it beside the fish section?

Cashier: No! No! Near the mortuary one.

Lancerlord: Huh? More what?

Cashier: Mortuary! Mortuary!

* Lancerlord walks away, not knowing what the hell the Cashier had just said *

Finally I found the office, after asking another staff for directions.
Before I entered the office, I saw the section that displays this


Mortuary! Mortuary

  2. hahahaha, so funnY! Margarine becomes mortuary.... which reminded me of an incident, when I was back in Spore, ordering something at McDonalds.

    I forgot I was not in US, so requested for "tartar" sauce using the American pronunciation (tär-t'r). So the boy who took my order was very puzzled, until I said "tar tar" sauce. He said, "oh, tar tar sauce. Got. Got." Then, he imitated the pronunciation (ta-ter) which got his crew members laughing their heads off!

  7. ah 9: The way she said, made my blain frozen. Couldn't think for a moment.

    anna: My version would be tah-tah sauce.

    alexis: I can also foul up. Suppose to say "I am doing some simulation" become "doing some stimulation". "Pass me kitchen roll" become "chicken roll". A lot lah.

    agentx: That kind of slang too powerful for me to digest.
