I didn’t even have to make this up

Today this is what amused me:

* At the hospital, someone answering the phone with the greeting: "Hi Jean!"
Haha … yes, lame … say it out loud.  Go on …

* Watching the Russell Peters DVD (Outsourced) (Go on, go buy it), and with the material already being racially edgy - listening to him mention the mandarin phrase for "this one" (well, it’s also a stop-gap "Um / Err / Like …") while also telling the audience how a black lady was standing in front of him in the KFC line in Shanghai…  SO not PC, but hey - he’s allowed to do it cos he’s not white =)

PS. The previous point is only funny if you know what the mandarin phrase sounds like…

Yes yes, the blog wasn’t very good today - but I’m allowed random downtime.  I’m not here to amuse you all the time.  Special subscription-paying visitors get to see the real humour 24/7.  You get what you pay for after all…

I could do a suitable approximation of entertaining teenage angst, but I figure there are enough Myspace sites for that already.
