some things that stick to your head

you know, there are some silly things that stick to your mind?

like there was once one fella told me he always buys tissue paper in twos (two packets)
he said there was once in his school days he got involved in a gang fight. he got cut on the head and was bleeding profusely with blood trickling down his face. he thought to himself: "Fuck, i think i'll need 2 packs of tissue (paper) to stop this bleeding". off he went with his bleeding head and with blood trickling on his face to a mama stall to buy 2 packs of tissue (paper). to his surprised, he used only one pack of tissue (paper). from that day on, he always buys them in twos. you know, that is something that sticks to the mind.

are you getting annoyed with (paper) in brackets? we say tissue when we mean tissue paper. isnt it so?

anyway, i had wanted to take a photo of my car to show you all. then i remembered my cousin saying with a LOT of conviction that to take photos of your vehicles is damn *suay* (aka bad luck) and your car will be involved in an accident, big or small, but sure langar or buang or something. of course i didnt believe it cos it is bullyshit, but it did make me hesitant to take a picture of my car. but me being me, will always want to challenge things went ahead to take a picture one fine day. after that, i was sitting in the car, half expecting an accident. wah lau, can be so silly right you say. ya so silly. then my very clever husband left the keys in the car after locking the car manually (the remote lock sometimes doesnt work). and best part, the auto car lock works very efficiently. 1 minute after you close the doors, it will auto lock. so anyway we were in a hurry and were at a hourly rate car park and got no damn keys. my very clever husband asked me to pick the lock. PICK THE CAR LOCK! freaking think im so clever, if i can pick a car lock i'll be out with too fast too furious team and go shop for cars for free man. i'll be king. i cant bloody pick the car lock for goodness sake though i can pick many other locks but it takes a bloody long time to pick a lock and i dont like to do it. so anyway, he asked me to pick the lock in a matter-of-factly manner. and i actually tried. a bit silly to even think i can. i thought to myself:"wah lau, really take photo of your car will get into trouble mei? so choon ar?" i thought. then i told myself, cannot be, must be a way out. and we started looking around for a metal rod that is flat, like a long metal ruler. luckily there were 2 contractors around (they were retro-fitting a retail shop on a Sunday). we asked for their help. they gave us a locksmith's number but they bloody charge $100 for the job. my husband said to break the glass. !!!! mad man break glass. i said no way. how to clean up the mess later? i said replace glass also got to pay, might as well get locksmith. but we continued to search for mental rod. to my amazement, we opened the lock the movie way. you know in movies, the crooks steal cars by inserting a long metal rod from the window pane? it's true, it works. we just pushed the rod into the slot to find the catch of the lock and "click"! voola! the door opened. all this in 3 mins. i mean the slotting the rod part. finding the rod and walking around thinking for solution took 20 minutes. so, ya, we did it the too fast too furious way. dont try it unnecessarily. im only telling you in case your keys got locked in and you dont have a spare and you dont want to break the windows and you dont want a locksmith, you can try it my way if that happens. that's all.
