Future Lovers

In the evidence of it's brilliance

It starts with our remembering this piece titled 'Friendship' that 'Nic wrote for our secondary school magazine before. To quote:

By puberty, however, the money nonsense has been done with. In its place though, an even more outrageous problem has come into play - the battle of the sexes...Long time childhood friendship account for nothing if their sex does not match. If someone tries to go against this universal rule, they will be branded...
After checking back the school magazine for that article, we spent a bit of time going through the rest of the magazine again...we still can't believe the stuff we wrote ourselves. Yikes. Then again, we don't think we'll be able to spew that kinda prose anymore.

Anyways. So happens that we went out with the Chief for dinner at Souled Out the other night (it has been ages since either of us dined there) and things were normal until the waiter passed us a leaflet of their upcoming promotion - Valentine's, to be specific. This before we even gone through the menu. Not to mention that the other side of the leaflet has their upcoming Yee Sang promotion.

Eh, excuse us? Can't it be a platonic dinner?

The staff probably have very good future sight then, because at present we still try to keep things low profile.

No lah, they were just handing out promo to drum up more business. If they thought about it at all, they might just as easily have assumed you were two work colleagues and that next time you'd bring your respective wives or girlfriends (or boyfriends, or favourite soft toys) along.

The time to worry about future sight is when they hand you a complimetary condom with the toothpicks...

Oh, oh, it seems like someone has La Chief as lover, eh? Am I right? Or am I wrong? Now, am I the only bitch trying to speculate things here? Or what?

A platonic V-day dinner is best had at the mamak.

MrBunnyBan said...

I second Will's statement. :P

Nowadays everyone is promoting everything like mad. But I don't think they suggesting anything to you and the (giggle) chief. (Does she play Halo?) Unless someone was wearing a shirt that can see nipples one...

Hrugaar: It'll take more of a certain clientele before that happens, and even then we aren't averse to freebies actually.

David The Man: In good time.

Alex: We're sure you're able to figure things out lah.

Ah-Bong: Actually it's been in the past tense already. :P

Lifebook: One day will zhong cha for you but no kneeling or bowing down. Wait we steal a packet from the bahkutteh shop first.

Savante: Probably lost a bit of its context when quoted such.

William: Goodness. V-day dinner already!?

Ban: Even we don't play Halo ok. Apa nipples!?

Adrien: Well there was no need for misdirection anymore mah.
