there were some broccoli and cauliflower with my steak.

then we started arguing about which is the broccoli and which is the cauliflower.

i was very damn sure i was right.

he was very damn sure he was.

so after that we went to NTUC to check it out.

broccoli and cauliflower respectively. i was wrong. :(

i have to admit. my boy is pretty knowledgeable.

just yesterday he taught me something new.

人心不足蛇吞橡.

and he even knew the story behind it ok. don't play play.

long long ago in china the empress got very very ill.

the physician says she needs to eat the gall (蛇胆) of a certain snake.

now this particular snake was a huge ass one.

so the empress seeked the help of her premier (首橡).

the premier then went to the snake and asked for its help.

since the snake was so huge and so was its gall.

the premier asked the snake if he could just remove one small part of the gall.

the snake agreed since it wouldn't die if it was just a tiny piece.

then the snake opened its mouth wide.

so the premier went in and being greedy (人心不足) cut off the whole damn gall.

and the snake being in such pain closed his mouth.

there you go. feel much more knowledgeable already? :)
