Went to watch X Men today. And... well... is really not my type of show. Seriously, what's the joy when everyone knows the ending? That good-triumph-over-evil plot is getting old.

I am near to slumber in the cinema until a terrible couple sitting besides us begin to stir things up. They are really @#&@^!*.

Anyway.. this is what really happen..

Today... I went to have lunch with my grandaunt and my counsins... rather unwillingly. My grandaunt just came here from toronto so I am kind of obliged to have the meal with her.

OK.. then we went for a movie. There's me, my cousins and my brother. And then the freaking couple who were sitting close to the aisle started their vulgarity ram at my cousins and brother because they need to pass by them to go to the loo. (Seriously, what's wrong?)

ANd I.. have the daunting task of sitting besides them. Apparently, my brother accidentally kicked the woman's flip flop and she fumed. She started saying fu*king hell... lack of education... etc. etc.. (Like my brother can hear them when he sit so far inside.)

I am really pissed since they were raising their voices like it's n-o-n of anyone's business. I just turned and APOLOGISED. (You know.. normally it works..)

Me: Ok. I am sorry. That's my brother and I don't think he done that on purpose.

Woman: Can you pick up my shoe? (is a flip flop) Your bloody brother kick it so far away.

Me: (Take the flip flop.. damn.. I have the urge to throw it in her face.. and there they were still making a big fuss) I am sorry. (Yeah right)

Basically.. I try to ignore them.. but they started having a conversation between themselves when in fact it's for US to hear..

Woman: People no education. Kids.

Man: Never go to school. Don't know how to behave. School never teach.

I can't help it.. I sniggered.

Man: People cannot understand English. (Then started speaking mandarin in Singapore style) Ta men ting bu dong ying yu, yau jiang hua wen. (Trans: They can't understand English, got to speak mandarin.)

HAHA. Damn. If I can still stand those dispparaging comments, that would make me a saint. So... well.. I just turned and said...

"Sorry. I am not a local and I can't understand what you are saying. Anyway, we have apologized. (Get over it!) Can you please concentrate on your show?"

I have a tough time controlling this time. Really.. I don't wanna make a fuss over some teeny weeny stuff. It just makes me similar to them if I do that, right?

Anyway... they continue "making conversations" though in a lower voice. I couldn't care less. I must admit that the thought of shaking the guy's hand to congratulate on how noble he is to endure such a girlfriend did once cross my mind. (Less victims to fall under her prey you see? Though the guy is not a lot better.)

Still, kinda glad that they make a dash for the exit before the credit comes out. Ha.. so I could turn and tell my brother and cousins something I hold back for the whole show.

Erm...

nevermind is just a Cantonese slur.
