Proof that inter-state culture shock do happen even amongst literate people
Girl, nonchalantly: I’m going to KK this weekend. What do you want from there?
Himbo: Nothin’.
Girl, muttering: I wonder if I will be tired flying there for 2hours.
Himbo: What??! KK is like, 2hours’ drive from here. Why do you need to fly over? Geez.
Girl: KK is across the ocean. What you mean no need to fly over?
Himbo: What KK are we talking about here? Not Kuala Kangsar meh?
Girl, rolls eyes: I don’t think people EVEN refer to Kuala Kangsar as KK.
Himbo: Well.. I DO! *whimpers* At least, from where I come from!
