Was having muscle pain that day. Was not sure what to do, to take pain killer or not to take. Ding! Thought of a solution. *light bulb* Decided to paste ko iok, a type of pain relief patch. Searching high and low around the house and found a box of ‘tuo ku xian’ *happy*(a type of patch also la, direct translation means ‘out of bitterness’ as in difficulties) in the drawer. Opened up, left the LAST and ONLY piece -_-”’. I tried to paste on my body. The next day, I felt better. So, I decided to go and get another box. I entered the shop looking for this ‘tuo ku xian’ but I could not find it. Out of a sudden, I saw something which was very hilarous instead, ‘wu tong ku’ (translated into english means ‘no bitterness’ as in difficulties). Hahaha! Immediately I wanted to laugh. The more I looked at it, the more I felt like giggling. I even had this conversaion in my mind.
Salesperson: May I help you?
Customer: I want to buy ‘tuo ku xian’ because I want to get out of bitterness.
Salesperson: I am sorry. We do not have that. But why don’t you try ‘wu tong ku’ because you will have no bitterness at all so no need to get out of bitterness.
Okay, I know it is lame -_-”’
This is ‘wu tong ku’.
As I found that the packaging of ‘wu tong ku’ looked a bit not so convincing I decided to get myself a Salonpas Patch for pain relief.
This is Salonpas which I happily bought home.
