mound of peanuts on the table..

guest: 'are peanuts cheap here?'

eating salted eggs sometime later...

guest: 'how much are salted eggs here?'

me: 'aw... i dunno... those were just given to my mom...'

a while later, trying out infanta's suman...

guest: 'where can you buy these here?'

at a garden center...

me: 'what do you call this plant?'

seller: 'heart plant...'

me: 'heart plant?'

seller: 'it's heart-shaped so it's a heart plant...'

me: 'doesn't it have another name?'

seller 2: 'hoya...'

if you don't know what to call it, describe it... ; p

the WHOLE truth

you know how when someone texts you something and then you react and then they text you again modifying their previous message to make them look nicer?  i know the drill.  the second is the one they'll show to others.  the thing is, i have both messages and more.  and i know what to do.  boo!

us and them

dropped by a friend's place...

upon seeing my car, she blurts out:  'this is one way!'

me:  'oh?  i didn't see any sign...'

friend:  'there's no sign...'

me:  'how would people know it's one way if there's no sign???'

friend:  'those from here already know...'

eh?  hahaha...

me:  'how 'bout non-residents?  tell them to put a sign!'

friend:  'okay.'

that's more like it...  ; )
