Petrol Price Rise…. uh… right?
June 5th, 2008 by delaqroux-incDelaqroux Inc update and upon me making this blog post, allow me, Dark A. Delaqroux, to show how Dark A. Delaqroux is actually living in ridiculously bizzare ignorance… or if you want to put in a way, living under a cardboard box.. like Solid Snake.. 8D
The following dialogue between a friend who shall not be named and yours truly, took place in No.38, Sector 11, New Selayang; precisely at 6.21pm over the phone **connects**
A: Hello
D: Yo
A: Dey, free tonite? Wan2 go out lepak ah?
D: Free, i think. Where to?
A: In my car.
D: What?
A: Goin to queue up to fill petrol. @#$% la. I thought want to go earlier but i got this kid’s tuition class. Thot want go at seven later la. Time Maghrib i think less people. You pray then we chow k?
D: Uh… then want to go where?
A: What?
D: I mean, isi minyak then want to go where?
A: Huh? Isi minyak then balik la.
D: If go out just to teman you isi minyak then malas la weih.
A: Wei, teman me la dey.. Might end up hours there you know?
D: Hours? Where?
A: At the oil station
D: Why so long?
A: Beratur there la.
D: Beratur for what?
A: Minyak la @#$%!
D: Why have to beratur pulak?
A: Ramai orang macam @#$% la.
D: Eh? Usually i go oil pump oso not that many people what?
A: …….
D: …….
A: …….dude..
D: Yeah?
A: You see news onot?
D: (stumbles on whether should i be telling the truth or not) uhh… why la? (omitting the truth with more questions.. typical Darkie style)
A: Harga minyak naik one ringgit la, bro!!!
D: ………oh
A: That’s why everyone going to the station now. Tomorrow naik harga ardy!
D: ….ooowh.. i forgot.
A: Gila seh! (somehow i get the feeling that he/she already know that i didnt even know about the news) Naik one buck. What the @#$% is with the government? Everytime wanna raise the price up. They want to build another Twin Tower ka? @#$% la!
D: Yeah hor…
A: Imagine oil naik one buck. Then for sure everything else oso naik harga. After this sure everyone pokai la. Man, i think when you say that this year’s stuff getting effed up, i think this is the most @#$%ed up moment of 2008 la. Hell man! (at this point i’m wondering whether that whole long complain was actually him/her expressing the anger for the government being cruel or actually anger towards me being stupid)
D: Yeah…
A: ……
D: ……
A: ……
D: ……yeah. terrible.
A: Ad, you ar…
D: What?
A: Nothing la. You sometime gila punya blur tau tak?
D: What? Where got? I’m… not… that blur (notice the word "that" was used). What? I heard the news oso (lying). Only jz now i forgot (lying). When you said then i remember la (buat2 remember ada la.. lying)
A: ……..
D: ……..yeah.
A: ……..
D: ……..i think sure whole Malaysia goin2 go inflasi like gila again. That minyak naik berapa percent? (diverting A away from my suspecting me- although most probably he/she already knew)
A: ……..seringgit
D: Banyak tu! Sure every stuffs price will go up. After this entah-entah bus’s fee oso naik like hell. (trying to sound convincing by portraying empathy) I mean, not just that, if… uh… transport price go up, for sure every bahan mentah punya cost will go up oso (actually, a recap of what A has said earlier.. more empathy to try to sound convincing) Everything will be like hell in chain effect. First satu naik, then satu lagi naik.I think seriously the higher-ups not thinking of the domino effect… (using big terms to divert attention on the topic at hand)
A: …….right?
D: So, coming onot?
A: Why not?
D: …….ok la. pick you up around 7 **clicks down phone**
So.. yeah.. oil price went up the hill @w@
