Are you from a non-English speaking country? Nothing wrong with it, but I sense it in your grammar. Cute. hehe Sorry about that guys, there little singlish in everyone in Singapore. Jen give a perfect picture what singlish sound like. It hard to maintains perfect English while juggle other language. I sometime, got grammar rules mixed up while speak in other language.So i have to juggle between English,Malay, Indonesia,Chinese,Thai,Arabic and Turkish. Feel so tired just think about them.

Neh mind lah! I understand you! Can .. At least you dont speak like beng wan I dont think, they understand what Ah Beng mean? Ah Beng is a stereotype applied to a certain of a group of young Chinese men in Southeast Asia, particularly Singapore and Malaysia. The stereotypical view of a Ah Beng is a young Chinese man or teenager, that lacks cultural refinement or indulging in criminal activity or being involved in brawling or arguing out of disagreements with other people. Ah Bengs are also sometimes associated with extensively-modified or zhng-ed cars, and are stereotypically seen as being excessively flashy and show-offs. Ah Bengs are often stereotyped as trying to emulate Japanese street fashion. In Malaysia, the term 'Ah Beng' usually refers to males who have unusual styles and tastes. And the term 'lala-zai' refers to males involved in stereotypical gangster activity or fashion such as the dyeing of hair. A second definition of 'Ah Beng' is also sometimes used to describe young Chinese men in Southeast Asia who cannot speak fluent English and/or have graduated from the secular Chinese education system of the region. This definition is more positive than those above, as the Ah Bengs are not perceived as being into criminal activities or overly materialistic, but rather as followers of Chinese pop culture, such as Cantopop or Mandopop songs, Chinese entertainment shows and Chinese movies Pic of Ah-Beng [im g][/img] A very famous Ah beng [im g][/img]

^ LOL to that. I try not to do it. But I just have this paranormal force pulling me towards all reflective and shiny surfaces. Sometimes I look horrifying (okay most of the time) and those other times I smile, wink, and point to my reflection and say "...smokinnnnn' "... Could be ADHD.

In our defence, I believe it's probably more of a human trait! lol Ever do the 'just checking out the window display' look? hahahaha!
