Ah Cheng Buey Ro Ti

Once upon a time, a group of Ah Bengs stepped
into a lounge and wanted the
DJ to play the song
"Ah Cheng Buey Ro Ti"
(In Hokkien meaning Ah Cheng buysbread)

The DJ told them that
they only have English songs
and told them to
re-select another song.
The Ah Bengs were indignant and kicked up a big
fuss, claiming that the DJ was insulting them.
The manager had to intervene
in order to calm them down. Finally,
after many hours of talking, the
manager managed to find out
that the Ah Bengs were actually asking for the
song "Unchained Melody" by the Righteous Brothers.
