All about a DVD Player and Carrefour

Went to Carrefour to shop last weekend and saw a DVD Player which was being displayed on one of the shelves. The selling price is RM 89.90 only. Very cheap as it’s multifunction player. Besides playing normal CD, VCD and DVD, it can read USB devices. It’s cheap for something like this.
 
Being keen to purchase the item, I brought the device to one of the staff there and she asked if there is anymore stock left. Frankly speaking, how would I know if there is anymore stock left? All I know is that I’m interested to buy the DVD player. She referred to her colleagues and found out that they do not have any more stocks left and because of this, they would not be able to sell it to me. I was like, "WHAT?! I’m paying for it and now you say you don’t sell it to me?!"
 
"If it’s not for sale, why do you put it on the shelf?" I asked.
 
"IT’S FOR DISPLAY" – what an intelligent answer.
 
Fine! I put back the player to its original place. And I saw another male staff walking by. I asked him again if they still have stock in the store room for sale. He said its all sold out and the one on the shelf is not for sale.
 
"Then why do you put it there?"
 
"IT’S FOR DISPLAY" – he answered the same way the lady gave me earlier on.
 
"Haha… lawaknya!" (literally translated – "Haha… what a joke!")
 
"CARREFOUR MEMANG SELALU BUAT LAWAK ANTARABANGSA" – He replied.
(badly translated – "CARREFOUR ALWAYS MAKE INTERNATIONAL STANDARD JOKES")
 
I was dumb-found and I do not want to make a noise anymore.

Which “F.R.I.E.N.D” Am I?

THUM, you’ve got a little bit of Joey going on!

How you doin’? Your inner Joey Tribbiani wants to know. Like the real Joey, people can feel your presence and red-hot, sex appeal the minute you walk in the room. And your good intentions are never far behind (even if you do let a secret or two slip at the wrong moments). The point is, your honesty and sweet-natured charm can get you out of any situation because you always mean well.

Your hidden strength may just be your tenacity. Did Joey give up acting because Dr. Drake Ramoray was killed off the soap opera? Nope. And even after he failed as Al Pacino’s butt double he didn’t abandon his dreams. So keep that in mind, aim high, and keep being the friend that your friends love having around.

Which Comedy Am I?

THUM, you’re most like Friends

It’s not Central Perk’s highly-caffeinated coffee that makes the Friends gang so fun and energetic. They get their kicks from just hanging out together and laughing at life and each other’s little foibles.

A warm, outgoing, and social person like you knows how to recognize good chemistry when you see it. We bet it’s your own best buds who bring out your silly and sassy side whether you’re dishing about your latest dating disasters or joking about your job. You don’t even mind being the butt of their teasing as long as it makes for a good laugh and a good time. A group that laughs together sticks together. And that’s no joke!

My celebrity chef match is The Naked Chef

THUM, your celebrity chef match is The Naked Chef

No cause for alarm! Your cooking counterpart doesn’t sauté, simmer, or season in his birthday suit. It’s just his take on food prep that’s naked. Like Jamie Oliver, you’ve probably got a low-key, no-frills approach to cuisine — and maybe to life, too!

Whether you’re cooking for company or for yourself, you’re keen on creating succulent flavors that make your taste buds do summersaults — without spending the whole day slaving over a hot stove. After all, you’ve got other things to do and places to be. And your knack for keeping up with culinary trends and stripping cooking down to the basics will make your cooking a winning welcome at any meal.
