The Pick up line in denial that worked

Man in a bar: Excuse me, can you tell me what time it is?
Fat Lady: You know, that is a really bad pick up line.
Man: Sorry, i wasn't trying to pick you up. I really do want to know what the time is

Anyhoo, they had a good night together.. he asked her for the time again the next morning

How to have a great date and get your girl drunk?

Last week we went to Em by the River again.. there was a lovely Chinese couple at a table near us.. well, no, they weren't lovely.. funny and entertaining yes.. all we did that whole evening was look at their table and laugh... big lesson this was on how to have a great date and get your girl drunk at the same time while staying completely sober yourself.

Scene: couple are drinking wine, (also tea, water and some other drinks at the same time) The girl is talking..on and on... and the guy is barely trying to listen.
One minute later: they clink their wine glasses - The girl has a sip, the man wets his lips with wine and then has a HUGE sip of water..
30 secs later: same thing,. everytime they have a sip of wine, then clink glasses and he drinks more water than wine...
2 hrs later: She's left for the loo and he tops her drink with his own.
Man to waitress: "I want water!! MORE WATER !! "

Girl returns, same things goes on for another couple of hours...

Bloody hell!!! Do all guys do this?

Cannot Lah !!! - The Harley Davidson Story

Spent most of last weekend at this pub called Handle Bar…
Nice place.. biker theme. So there were lotsa biker dudes with Harleys and other big bikes
Now the thing is.. When you see a guy on a Harley, you have an image in your head of what he'd look like and act like… you'd think he would be this macho guy n stuff.. But I forgot that this is Singapore !!!
So we're having a drink and some of these guys are standing next to our table..
And they're leaving and this was the conversation:
1st Harley Guy: "How bout we do xxxx and then xxxx thing"
2nd Harley Guy (who is this hunk of a guy replies in true Singaporean style): "Cannot lah !!!" …. (I didn’t hear what he said after that.. I was stumped on big macho guy owning a Harley saying those 2 words)
Oh Singapore Singapore !!!!

Eating and Eating in Singapore

How much can u eat in a span of 3 hrs... well I've been eating so much in the past 2 days that if I were a polar bear, I'd have put on enough fat to last me 2 winters...
My darling friend Pinto is in Sin city.. and true to college tradition of drinking and eating like 2 crazed women living the last few hours of their lives, we ended up doing what we do best - being completely giddy and crazy while hogging away to glory
Yesterday was China Town. Decorated as it is for Chinese New Year, with all the food stalls everywhere, we went mad. Tried out all the sweets and delicacies anyone would let us get out hands on, gobbled up yummy chicken rice, pigged out on oyster and egg ommlet (highly recommended btw, this is at Food Street) and then had some more sweets, even raw mango which really made us feel like pregnant women craving for all the food we could get our hands on.
By the end of it, when we reached Clark Quay for a drink, we didn't have space for it in our tummies, and we couldn't walk back to the hotel.

Today was even worse. After a lovely "filling" meal of mutton biryani at home and a well deserved nap, we headed out at 10 to my favouritest place in Singapore - eM by the River at Robertson Quay. Yummy mango salad, Garlic Prawns and lotsa margaritas later began the quest for Chilli crab at 12. Ended up at boat quay, where the nice lady recommended we order 2 crabs since they were small. what we ended up with was a foot long plate, and these huge mama crabs. We ate like there was no tomorrow, all the crab was finished, we didn't even stop in between for a breather, people passing by looked on with concern as the piles of crab shells kept increasing. we ate for an hour and a half non stop...
The only reason I'm posting this now is because this is my feeble attempt at exercise to digest all that food. I've eaten so much, that if i had another bite now i wouldn't need to swallow, the foods reached till my neck.
i don't think there will be breakfast or lunch tomorrow.

Of Margaritas and pick up lines

Went to this place yesterday at Dempsey road and it had all the makings of an amusing Friday night.
Our cabbie who dropped us there suddenly yelped when he saw a sign that said “happy hours”. Its never a good sign when the cabbies do that to 3 girls in their cab, it means its only too obvious that we’re going to get completely sloshed that night and everyone already knows it. Oh well…
So we enter this place and we can see weirdly dressed people doing what I’m sure they thought was burning up the dance floor… some guy in almost opaque (I swear) white shades dancing with himself and the people in his head and a lotta other people who would have gotten a mention here had they had the charisma of our ubercool white shade man

We order 3 margaritas and tell the waiter to get them frozen, and one on the rocks…
Only to find our waiter hurry back apologetically to us 10 mins later telling us that the kitchen is closed after 11:30 and so we cant get any food, would we like to order drinks instead… After patiently explaining that the margaritas were drinks and not pizzas our humble waiter who’s first day at work it supposedly is, was pretty fast in getting us our drinks.
Then a lil while later we have these two 5 foot nothing pimply guys come up to ask with the weirdest pick up line I've heard so far “ Do you think tattoos are cool, cause his sister wants to get a tattoo with her boyfriends name on her arm and I don’t think so”… sigh… the next 10 mins went trying to get them to leave after they promptly got chairs and sat their asses down.

So I called my friend Mala who sat across from me and made it look like we were both on separate calls hoping they would get the hint, which they did. But not before departing with another gem he told Mala “ You know, you wont be able to pick up a lotta men if you’re on the phone all the time”…
This will be an interesting 2 years indeed….
