Repeat After Me, "Hong Kong-ER"

I wonder how many of you guys knows.
Since young I have been hearing people calling me "Hong Ki" and I just find it uncomfortable somehow, ya know HongKi Donkey HongKi Donkey... I always try to tell people please don't use the word "Hong Ki", address us as "Hong Konger" yet not many people seem to get it, so as time goes by, I give up in correcting them.
Only until Marc, then I confirm that it is actually an insult to the Hong Konger; and recently I have been hearing in the department "this one is a Hong Ki" *Of course not referring to me*, but I really give up on telling the others the same issues over and over again. Yet Sister voiced out then the couple of them know that it is actually very rude to call us the Hong Konger as Hong Ki.
Jo added, "If people call the 'Hong Konger' as 'Hong Ki', won't that makes Singaporean 'Singgi'?"
Make sense.
Seriously, this really make sense to me.
So the next time if I hear "Hong Ki" again, I think I shall just return them "Singgi".
Anyway, I will probably going for DnD for the hospital!!! Heh, my Kai-ma smsed me and asked if I wanna go, since someone I know is going I don't mind to join in. =D Daaalaalaa... DnD~~~~
