The other day, I mean night, I was a little hungry after work. The time was about 2am. I drove my car to a McD Drive Thru so that I can munch a healthy Big Mac before I sleep. Upon reaching the ordering window, I was greeted 'Selamat Pagi'. Of course techinically, the girl there is correct. After 12am is obviously the next morning. But since I am half dead from work, the sky is dark and I am going home to sleep, 'Selamat Pagi' seems to be a bit weird.
Then again when I collect my juicy
Let's do a short analysis here:
12am to 11.59am = Good Morning
12noon to maybe 6pm= Good Afternoon
6pm to 1159pm = Good Evening
Goodnite is when leaving or mau tidur time.
See ah, this means Good Morning is 50% of the day. Freaking 12 hours! Where got morning so long one? So, my suggestion is, from 12am to 6am, should be another greeting. Something that suits that moment.
Since that time is between morning and night, shall we name it Noling? Good Noling! Norning is abit difficult to pronounce. Bit tounge twister. 'Might' oredi taken. And Good Might also sounds abit out, kan?
12am to 6am = Good Noling
6am to 12noon = Good Morning
12noon to maybe 6pm= Good Afternoon
6pm to 1159pm = Good Evening
Baru balance, right? Now, which department should I submit my application?
What ridiculous? 15 years ago got the term Brunch meh? Think and see..
How crappy..
Adios.
