Imagine your least favourite childhood song - or better yet, your least favourite Christmas song - in Chinese, with children who have been given a hefty dose of speed singing it. That is what is playing in every shop in Malaysia right now, and it repeats itself about every 45 seconds (literally, this is not an exaggeration).
I'm absolutely certain that if this were Europe, the EU would rule that to play this on repeat would be in violation of labour laws and probably even health and safety. If this were America, labor unions would be striking. It makes me homicidal.
I'm fairly certain this is a Chinese New Year thing, so hopefully it will be over soon. I might even start sleeping again.
...and Thomas thinks the Christmas music played on the radio 24/7 Thanksgiving to Christmas was bad!
ReplyDeleteyeah, that's bush league. this is seriously bad stuff, i'm amazed it doesn't drive people to shopping mall massacres on a fairly regular basis. they play it in the parking garages too - where it's already 100 degrees, dark, smelly, confusing and overcrowded.
