A police car pulls up in front of grandma's house and grandpa gets out.
The polite policeman takes grandpa to the door and explains to grandma that this elderly gentleman said that he was lost in the park and couldn't find his way home.
Grandma looked at her husband and said, "You've been going to that park forover 30 years! How could you get lost?"
Leaning close to Grandma, so that the policeman couldn't hear, Grandpa whispered, "I wasn't lost. I was just too tired to walk home."
My regular breakfast ‘kaki’ was about to order some food in a restaurant in UK. Looking at the menu, he saw under ‘OAP’, the prices were much lower. Without asking, which may appear ignorant, he pointed to the waitress items under OAP. The waitress served without questioning his eligibility.
When he got back to his daughter’s home, he told her and asked what does OAP stand for?
“Old Age Pensioner”!
His daughter was embarrassed because though her dad is 62, to be considered an OAP you have to be above 65. As a visitor, he obviously did not have a card, so he has to admit he must have looked old enough.
A retired gentleman went to Centrelink Office to apply for the Age Pension.
The woman behind the counter asked him for his driver's license to verify his age.
He looked in his pockets and realized he had left his wallet at home. He told the woman that he was very sorry but he seemed to have left his wallet at home. "I will have to go home and come back later." he said.
The woman says, "Unbutton your shirt."
So he opens his shirt revealing curly silver hair.
She says, "That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me" and she processed his Age Pension application.
When he returned home, the man excitedly tells his wife about his experience at the Centrelink office.
She says, "You should have dropped your pants. You might have got the Disability Pension, too."
How should we judge a government?
In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!
"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain
Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham
"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan
Government fed by the people

Corruption so prevalent it affects English language?
