Slip of tongue? … Funny.

I shall try to write something light and funny.
I need to do a bit of recollection.

Okay, tale 1 :

Not too long ago…

Many of us were talking. One of us was commenting that the movie
<不能说的秘密> is really nice. Another one was suggesting to sing the leading song of the movie on a certain occasion.

A : 不然的话,就唱《不能说的秘密》的主题曲咯。很好听哦。
B : 怎么唱?都没有音乐伴奏。
C : 是咯。这首歌那么新,音乐伴奏应该很难找吧。
D on the far side heard our conversation, being very helpful, he shouted over.
D : 我有!我有!我有《不可告人的秘密》。

Haha ..
We laughed so hard. He only noticed the slip after a while.

If we are ready, let’s go to tale 2 :

I don’t remember the particular context of our conversation very well now. But I’m sure we were talking about some packaging or some covers that must be needed to make something more secured.


A : 我们需要一个袋子来把它装好。
B : 这个可以吗?
C : 这个不行啦,不够安全,不够保险。不知道有谁会有比较像样的?
D on the far side heard our conversation, being very helpful, he shouted over.
D : 我有!我有!我有《保险套》。

Haha..
There was an awkward complete silence for a few seconds. Nay.. We weren’t shy about the topic, but we just couldn’t figure out how he would continue. Again, we laughed so hard.

Just another one to close the day.
Tale 3 :

We were talking about some wedding preparation of a friend. G was tasked to
「挡酒」. He was excited of the role and he is so sure he will be able to do it well as he often talks about his 「千杯不醉」. Mm…

Still, he is quite new to the entire flow of events of the day.
So, he tried to clarify.


G : 我什么时候才需要出来「挡酒」?
Someone answered him…

G : 我是帮新郎「挡酒」,还是帮新娘「挡酒」呢?
Someone replied him…

G : 新郎新娘喝「交杯酒」的时候,我需要去「挡」吗?
No one replied him.
We stared at each other in disbelief..
Haha…


In my mind, I pictured the funny scene during the wedding.
Emcee : 请新郎新娘喝「交杯酒」。
While many are waiting for the solemn ceremonial magical moment, G stood up and he said...
G : 等一下,我来帮你们「挡酒」。

I always think a good laugh is a good way to start the day, to end the day.

Cheers! :o)
