It's the Singlish rite? The curtness of the sentences make the joke even funnier. When I was in sec 2, my FT told us this joke. It was hilarious in the classroom

Hi Mark!
Not only the singlish but also the desperation of the poor girl!
Brings to mind my own mother who in my teens said this: "No, no, girl, you must not have any boyfriends! Concentrate on your studies until you finish then find a good one!".
Then when I came out to work, she and my aunt introduced me to a nice young man but I was not interested, only wanted to work and earn money.
Then few years later when there were no boyfriends in sight (not even a horse!!! ), she said perhaps the neighbour aunty can try to introduce this guy on the opposite block of flats who went half-naked most of the time!
Then still few years later she suggested I should perhaps adopt a kid for my old age (gosh....I was not so old yet lah!!!!). :x
Then couple years later I found myself a boyfriend and she asked: " So does this man smoke? Drink a little bit of alcohol? Doesn't matter, ALSO CAN!"
Wah..Lau..no Ma! This guy does not smoke, same religion as me, earn good and stable pay, social drinker of wine. Your daughter got some standard one!
So there you go....without revealing my age....that's my horse story!!!!

DesertWind,
Glad you found your knight in shiny armour. Luckily didn't get influenced by your mum, otherwise may end up with horsey
