MISCOMMUNICATION

I found the following dialogue so clever and so funny. It's between a Ms LEE SUM WAN and a Mr SORI.


LEE SUM WAN : Hello can I speak to Annie Wan, please?

Mr SORI : Yes, you could speak to me.

LEE SUM WAN : No, I want to speak to Annie Wan!

Mr SORI : You are talking to someone! Who is this?

LEE SUM WAN : I'm Sum Wan. And I need to talk to Annie Wan! Its urgent.

Mr SORI : I know you are someone and you want to talk to anyone! But what's this urgent matter about?

LEE SUM WAN : Well, just tell my sister, Annie Wan, that our brother was involved in an accident. Noe Wan got injured and now Noe Wan is being sent to the hospital. Right now Avery Wan is going to the hospital.

Mr SORI : Look if no one was injured and no one was sent to the hospital from the accident, that isn't an urgent matter! You may find this hilarious but I don't have time for this!!!

LEE SUM WAN : You are rude. Who are you?

Mr SORI : I’m Sori.

LEE SUM WAN : You should be sorry. Now give me your name!

Mr SORI : I’m Sori!!

LEE SUM WAN: I don't like your tone of voice Mister and I don't care. Give me your name!

Mr SORI : Look lady, I told you already Im Sori! Im Sori!! Im SORI !!! You didnt even give me your name!

LEE SUM WAN: I told you before, I'm Sum Wan! Sum Wan!!! You'd better be careful. My father is Sum Buddy. And my uncle holds a very big position in the company. He is Noe Buddy.

Mr SORI : Oh I'm so scared (sarcastically)!! Look, I don't care about your uncle. He’s a nobody. Everybody thinks he is a top dog and holding an important position in the company.

LEE SUM WAN : No, Avery Buddy just married my aunt. And Avery Buddy doesn’t work there.

Mr SORI : Like I said, I don't care which one of your aunt marries everybody and I also know that not everybody works here! Jeez!!!

LEE SUM WAN : Wheech Wan is my sis!

Mr. SORI : I dont know which one is your sis! Why in god's name you think I do!? Look, I got work to do and if I'm feeling mischievious, I’ll broadcast it on the P.A system saying: “Attention! Someone called and said that anyone's brother just got involved in an accident. But not to worry, no one got injured and no one was sent to the hospital. But everyone is going to the hospital anyway. The father's maybe a somebody but if you're their uncle, you're a nobody." How about that!? Toot… .Toot… .Toot… …

Thank you to the person who posted this in his web site. I read it over and over again, couldn't help smiling! So funny!
