Narration

Tony Leung: " Can u remember your shortest relationship? Do u remember your longest heart-breaking expereice? It's like as u get older, your memory becomes worse. Only know that there are 24 hours a day. Work 8 hours, sleep 8 hours. Don't know what to do with the remaining 8 hours. So, u just find someone who is good -looking and doesn't look down on u. To hug each other. To kiss each other. To lie to each other. And to make each other happy. Then, just spend the remaining 8 hours together. If I didn't tell, u won't know. According to an unkown resource, Everyone breathes in over 3869  times of second- hand cigarette smoke. Heart-broken 7.8 times. Unemployed for 4.2 times. And 0.99 chances of having an affair. 0.5 chances of having a secret admirer. But unfortunately, no one has ever find true love. Have u found yours yet? U have found it? True or not? Like me, evertime I thought I'd found it, the girls always broke my herat. Every morning, when I open my eyes, I can only see boxes of grave stones. I am not lying. They are boxes of grave stones. I don't know if the girls are busy during break up or they are not neat. They not only left me  but also left a pile of useless junks. But there's no need to throw them away. But it doesn't matter also if I don't throw them out. Recently, I added another box. Looking at the situation now, it looks like I need to make my grave yard bigger."

 

Market Research

Lady: "Sir, I am from the HK Market Research Centre. Want to use soem of your time to do a survey."

Tony: "Sorry, Miss. I am in a hurry. Go and get someone else."

Lady: "No, The survey is very simple."

Tony(walking away from the lady): "Market researh? U should do it in the supermarkets. It's useless to ask me."

Lady: " Beacuse u are the most handsome guy I have ever seen today. I really mean it."

Tony (coming back to the lady): " Since u so truthful, let's do it. Make it quick.  I am in a hurry.'

Lady: "Sir, when is the most recent u use a condom?"

Tony: "What? "

Lady: "Sorry, I should have asked u this question first? Have u ever used a condom?"

Tony: "Of course."

Lady: "The first time u used, how many years old are u that time?"

Tony: "How many years old? I am so young. I can't remember."

Lady: "U bought it or your partner bought it?"

Tony: "That time, I didn't buy it. I steal from my dad.'

Lady: "So now, do u buy it or your partner takes the initiative to buy it?"

Tony: "Initiative?"

Lady: "Yes."

Tony: "Eh.......she's more initiative. I am not so initiative. I am very passive."

Lady: "So, how many do u use each time?"

Tony: "These are private details. In good mood, about 3, 5 or 7 condoms.  U can ask the next question cos I am really in a hurry."

Lady: "OK, so have u ever used these brands before? Sweet Love, Wind Clouds, Knight, Never Say Die, Happiness, Drive Me Crazy."

Tony (tearing out her questionaire) : "I think I should take these questionaires home, digest it, fill up the answers and fax it back to u. OK?"

Tony (walking off and talking to himself): The last time, I am doing it with....... Err.........I forgot to use it. So I use it with who and which time?"

 

Dream

Tony: "Why did u go away, Heung? What u want me to do?"

Heung: "It's not b'cos I want u to do something. It's b'cos, even after break up, u still don't understand."

Tony: "Who says I don't understand? He's rich. That's why u go away together with him."

Heung: "Tony, a messed up relationship is not b'cos of one-side's fault. U have had many chances. U still didn't change your temper. "

Tony: "Why should I change? Right, sometimes, I might be a bit emotional, but this is my personality,'

Lady A: "It's your personality, right? But having your personality doesn't mean u can neglect other people's feelings."

Tony: "U like me then u should have accept my weakness also. When I was with u, I am not playing around. I am very serious and true to u.

Lady B: "unfortunately, only for a while. At the beginning, we can be together every moment."

Lady C: " Pretend to be so romantic."

Lady D: "After a while, things changed. U think we are annoying and boring. Like we don't exist."

Tony: "I am worry and stressful with my work. I am in creativity. Creativity requires space. I......"

Lady E : "U are selfish. U said u would be with me forever."

Tony: "Oh, I forgot your name! When I met u, it was first love. Of course I would say forever at the beginning. What u want me to say? 3 days 2 nights?"

Lady E: But u broke my heart. Also, u had caused me to lost my trust in man. Finally, I become a lesbian."

Tony: "Oh, I see. No wonder, u didn't come and look for me."

Heung: "Now, u know what is wrong with u?."

Tony: "There's nothing wrong! 99.9% of man are all like this."

Heung: "Actually, u are someone who never knows how to cherish a relationship. And also, a man who doesn't know how to love a woman. A stupid man!"

All girls: "U don't understand woman at all!"

Tony suddenly woke up from his dream.

 

Red Card

They were watching football on TV.

Father: "U broke up with ur girlfriend again?"

Tony: "I didn't break the rules. She wants to give me a red, what can I do?"

Father: "Why did she give u a red card for no reason? How come your demised mother never give me a red card?"

Tony: " Franky, when mum was alive, did u cheat on her?"

Father: " That means u are asking the footballs players whether they cheat when they are on the field.'

Tony: " Of course, they will say no."

Patrick: " Tell me the truth, Simon. That means yes or no?"

Father: " I think u guys don't have to ask me. It's obvious."

Tony: "I don't understand u guys. If u want to have an affair outside, why keep a woman at home?"

Patrick: "These are 2 different matters."

Father: " Right. Even in football, there are back-ups."

Patrick: "Simon, u are right. The more back-ups, the better,"

Tony narration: "Even a right girl is so hard to find, where can u find a back -up. But every back -up thinks she is the right girl for the guy at the beginning. Like Patrick's back up Fanny, a Shanghainese. She stayed with Patrick for 5 years. All she knows is to clean up his home every week. she's more like his maid than his girlfriend."

 

The Story of Waiting for a Bus

Vivian Hsu: "Have u ever heard the story of waiting for a bus?"

Tony: "What story? Dirty story?"

Vivian Hsu: "No. Actually, love is like waiting for a bus. Sometimes, u would think this bus it's too old. And make a decision not to take that bus. Sometimes, u would think :"Hey, why there's no air-con ont his bus? It's very hot." And u don't want to take that bus also. Then another bus come. Its full of passengers. Then, u don't want to sqeeze inside the bus with other passengers. So, u wait and wait until the sky is dark and your heart is worried. U see a bus coming and quickly jump onto the bus without thinking."

Tony: "U look at it. Shit! U get onto a wrong bus."

Vivian Hsu: "But u have already paid and waited for so long. So, are u willing to get off from the bus and wait for another bus. Besides that, u will never know when is the next bus coming."

Tony: "Take a taxi, then."

Vivian Hsu: "No taxi available."

Tony: "It's no big deal. Than, we walk."

Vivian Hsu: "That's right. Breaking up and losing someone is like walking. Understand?"
