A conversation with my younger bro

It has never been easy conversing with pple, esp those whose age gap can be said to be relatively significant. Even with those that hv insignificant age gap with u, misunderstandings/miscommunications r bound to arise due to e powerfulness of e choice of wrds n our super misleading body language...so it is unsurprising for mi to hv one w my bro who is 6yrs my junior rit....e oni exception in this case is that it is an interesting misunderstanding...

me>feeling realli terrible coz of a terrible headache + a sudden ear pain which i dunno y

so the converstion goes....
me: hey u hv anything for mi to apply to my ear? it realli hurts=(

bro: i gt an ear drops lotion which e doctor gave it to mi e other time

me: can pass it to mi...i tink i realli nid it

bro: wait 1st, i nid to go n find it...

Waiting....
bro: here is it...erm i tink juz drip one drop into your ear can liao...

me: dat time how many drops did u put?

bro: i 4gt...so long liao lor...but i tink is 1 drop...wait, i look at the "manual", see wat it says

me: okok

bro: nv write lei, tink juz drop one can liao...here it is

mi: how m i suppose to put it myself? u help mi lar...

me: later then say lar (mins later) hey i dun tink my ear is pain liao but it feels itchy, how huh?

bro: dat time e doc say cannot "wa" your ear hor...oso cannot wash your hair coz i tink e solution gt sodium...then prob gt some form of reaction

me: HUH, but my ear realli v itchy lei...i scratch u lar...prob nt so itchy...cannt wash my hair? then dat time u nv wash mei...

bro: yalor, dat time i bathed but din wash my hair...

me: yucks, dat is so dirty lar...cannot wash my hair...v funny lor...scare it react w water to become sodium hydroxide arh....then when can wash?

bro: doc say till your ear is bk to normal, i.e. not pain animore...

me: my ear nt pain liao, but super itchy, dun care arh...i will still wash my hair, juz dat i ensure that no water comes into contact w my ear...

bro: itchy then go n get a cotton bud to dig lar

me: *confused* but u say cannt "wa" rit

bro: ya cannt "wa" w your finger but can use cotton bud mar

me:???? who dig their ear using their finger one!

bro: dat time i did that coz i was trying to take out e hair in my ear

me: *faintz* now i know why your ear gt inflammation

Now for those reading it, does e problem lies w mi or him? or is it coz of e generation gap??? seriously no idea, u be e judge bar...
