Kek! Merchandising goes crazy

KEK v. squeeze

This is an interesting Hokkien word. Kek, pronounced kay-k, means to squeeze. It is an emotive term, it is seldom used in a literal way, although this is what you do when you are constipated.

It describes a frustrated feeling, when you cannot vent and say what's on your mind. Like living in fear of being banned and isolated under the Internal Security Act.

But it also describes a losing feeling, when someone or something precious is snatched from right under your nose, and the new owner parades this stolen acquisition in front of a powerless you. Like losing a beautiful, sexy girlfriend to an older guy from an arch-rival school. Ouch.

Similar feeling: TU-LAHN.

Don't kek your feeling any longer, buy this comfort T-shirt and show your real emotion...


Retail price: RM130 (cost price). Damn expensive! Kek-sim. If you are undeterred by the price, mail your purchase request to sisuahlai@googlemail.com.
