Pregnant Fish?



Why the funny title? Reason coming later...

Possibly the best time to go to Toys' R' us is on a weekday afternoon. That's when parents are at work, [no adult shoppers] kids are at school, [no screaming kids and half-mangled toys on floor] and the store is practically empty. So what can 2 [supposedly] grown up 'young adults' do at a giant toys store?

1. You can go in there, manhandle the merchandise, oops, I meant play with the toys. Upon entering the store, we saw leftover Halloween merchandise, and immediately grabbed tridents with to jab each other in sensitive abdominal areas. Ya! Take that!

2. You can try on dumb costumes which you'd never do in the presence of 50 ogling customers, as Yenn did with the mouse hat.

3. You can gleefully open the package and see what the inside looks like. "What do you think the board game looks like inside?" "I donno." and proceeds to open the box, and take out the gameboard and play money. "Ooooh......"

4. You can ogle and drool over all the toys you want without feeling embarrassed or having kids give you strange looks.

"OMG IT'S A POOL TABLE!!! AND IT'S ONLY $40!!!"

"UNICRON FROM TRANSFORMERS!"

"LIMITED EDITION X-MEN UNO CARDS WITH COLLECTOR'S TIN!"

"AAAARRRRGGGHH!"

Ok, so most of the above statements came from me...... :p

Then Sakae Sushi for buffet lunch. [Students' Price too. HA! And you guys wonder why we didn't get regular jobs! :p] And can I state for the record that Yenn has a SICK FETISH for PREGNANT FISH. Yes, I'm talking about the shisamo sushi that Sakae has on its red plates. I mentioned that I once got turned off by the thought of eating shisamo because it was pregnant fish, and she kept PEEPING at every damn pregnant fish that went by her on the conveyor belt.

Me: "Will you stop that!" after the umpteenth time she has lifted the cover to peek at the egg sacs of the fish.

Yenn: "Wah, look at the eggs in it. Every time you eat it, you're killing countless lives!"

Me: "They're already dead! And everytime you do that, it's like you're lifting up the skirt of a pregnant woman to peek at her ovaries!"

She's sick lah, I tell you......
