Life according to....
Imagine for one second, that everyone talked hokglish ( hokien and english). Life'd be pretty damn funny. It'd be like Pua Chu Kang in high definition. Actually worst..
Hypothetical scenario 1:
A friend spots a girl that is quite pretty walking on the street. He calls out to you, "Oi! Ci bai! That ca bo quite chooi leh!"
You turn your head and concur, therefore you say, "Diao! Right la brother! She damn si bei nap! But the ca bo heng next to her ka na sai man!!"
Your friend agrees and you walk away.
Hypothetical scenario 2:
You walk on the street, a car comes within inches of knocking your socks off. You feel unsatisfied. So you shout, "Eh diao you la ci bai!!! Ka ni na!! Who taught you to drive one??!! Your lau bu ah??!! No wonder your driving ka na sai only la!! I call mata then only you know ah ci bai!!"
The guy looks baffled. You walk away with one last cry of CI BAI!!!!
Hypothetical scenario 3:
You want to go to the toilet. But your friends are curious. They want to follow you and know where your going. So you say:
"Why so kae po wan you?? I pang jioo you also want to follow? For what jiak pa bo seh cho is it??"
If your laughing than I rest my case, if your confused, I'll unconfuse you with a little tutorial later, if you just think this post is weird and stupid and won't come visit my blog again, ah well...its better than those filler posts eh.

The author would also like to stress that not all hokiens curse as such and not all hokiens would result in shouting ci bai at the top of their lungs when confronted with such a situation. The author would like to appologise for any stereotyping of hokiens and subsequently would not like any hate comments from any hokiens.
