An unknown guy randomly texted me 'Hai bleh kte bknln' meaning 'Hey can we get to know each other' except in a semi-rude way with slouchy language. I had fun texting him this -


'For the sake of curiosity, I feel compelled to reply, but one can only go so far, surely you don't mean to be of a serious manner as to be so directly rude. Does it not seem obvious to you that you are undermining the modesty of the female population with such words?' 
and after he replied he didn't understand what I was talking about and asked me to 'talk Malay for him', I replied 


'Frankly, darlin', you strike me as uneducated, foolish, and petty and lack of decent mannerism. Thus, I'd rather not converse with you more than needed. Especially with a language I so despise for it's lack of grace. You have, however been quite an amusing target to condescend and practice the old way of English speaking, with it's frills and such, you know? Anyhow, byebye. :)'


I still get stuck at choosing accurate vocabulary. I really wonder how people used to be able to make a simple statement over a hundred words. I like that kind of speech, though. I find it interesting, amusing and more polite.

Laling, you forgot your tiny handkerchief among the headband and one ringgit notes in my slingbag. Better come here fast to take them back or they might get lost. :)
