Papa Buay Tahan


Max is not a very patient driver.

In fact, while he is mostly forgiving and nice, he becomes a different monster when he is behind the wheels.

His pet peeves are stupid people who do not understand road ethics, dum people who hog the roads even though the are driving really SLOWLY when there is nothing in front of them and of course, people who cut his lane WITHOUT giving any signal.

The other day, we were in the car and as usual, we saw one of those Sxxxxxx people and Max started complaining. "Wah lau, these people ah.. really ah.. don't know why they drive like that.." And the he paused before he got more vulgar because Ace was in the.

"Aiyoh, Papa buay tahan (cannot stand it) ah..." Ace commented when he heard that.

"What about Ace. Ace buay tahan or not?" I asked Ace.

"No,"Ace shook his head. "Only Papa buay tahan..."

Looks like he understands the meaning of this phrase... but I wonder where he learnt it from...
