Family issues you never knew.
Rule 1
Where does LBB originate from?
LBB is invented by my lovely Aunt Sharon. It is from an unknown language. So, do not go confused whether it is Hokkien, Mandarin, English, Hakka, Singlish, none.
What does LBB mean?
LBB is the acronym version of 'lam beh bek'. In my family's dictionary, it means smelly/usually/normal/casual/all-time favourites/simple and etc. As long as you use it in our family, we understand what it means.
E.g I shall bring 2 lam beh bek shorts. Meaning, I shall bring two normal/multipurpose/can-be-dirty shorts.
What is the history of LBB?
LBB is first-used when my aunt lived in Johor. When she packed the clothes and needs for a holiday or a trip, she'll order her kids ( my cousins ) to get their casual clothes with the word, LBB. Until today, her kids ( my cousins ) still use LBB to label their casual clothes. :D
What has LBB got to do with you?
I somehow find it very interesting and rare! I shall now use it and implement it in the daily conversations of my family too. Hehe. Then it'll be OUR trademark. *grins*
Conclusion: Use LBB from today onwards if you're a family member.
Rule 3
Eat Bah Kut Teh. Yes. It is to be believed that our family LOVES Bah Kut Teh. After all, Pahsang lang all eats Bah Kut Teh right? Except for the Islams. Bah Kut Teh is made out of pig/babi/ther/zhu/pandi. It contains of pig flesh and bones all sinked into a savoury soup/gravy. You can choose from the "suey kut" (small bones), "tua kut" (big bones), "chiah bak" (flesh), "ther kah" (pig's feet) and i think "ther tor" (pig's intestine) too! See, so many varieties where you can just sit, wallop, order more, perspire, have your chinese tea refilled every 10 minutes, chit-chat and lick your bowls until it sparkling clean that it could reflect a blur image of yourself on the bowl. HAHA. And to add the yummyness, dip "yao char kuey" into the gravy. This is an all-time favourite of all Bah Kut Teh fans. You'll probably be wondering, what has Bah Kut Teh got to do with our family? Here we go, it is our family tradition where my late grandpa, a huge kaki for Bah Kut Teh, have created a new method that made almost every Bah Kut Teh stall in Klang using that method. The secret is to savour Bah Kut Teh with cili padi. Oh yes. Familliar? You enter a Bah Kut Teh stall and see a bottle of soya sauce on the table and some cili padis together with tiny-bits of diced garlic in a small saucer. Right right? Go check it out the next time you eat Bah Kut Teh.
Tabik grandpa! For inventing this interesting new method of eating Bah Kut Teh.
Conclusion: Always have Bah Kut Teh with cili padi and diced garlic if you're a family member.
Rule 4
Never discriminate the round faces. Okay, almost everyone in our family has round, huge faces. Except for my elder brother. As in ALL. This includes, granny, grandpa, uncles, aunts, cousins, mummy, everybody. It is symbolic okay? Don't go teasing like my dad did the last time. "50 cent face" was my petname used by my dad. I get offended ohkayy? So don't do it! Same goes to Hannahbanana too. JUST SHUT IT AND LET US LIVE WITH OUR ROUND FACES. -.- I will be very very very very very very very angry if somebody just can't stop about the face. My mum get's angry too!
Note: I might just hate you, if you go overboard.
Conclusion: Do not comment anything about the face in my family.
Rule 5
Always keep the Colgate smiles. Our family are always the cheerful happy ones. We laugh very LOUDLY. We talk and babble and blah blah blah NON-STOP. We always have something GOOD even though we go through tough times. We are very POSITIVE. We are really good CLOWNS. We are all skillful in making LAME JOKES. We are also very CUTE. All the virtues above shall be given an award.
