So this caller called in - a local, and by the sound of it - she's probably a young adult. And she blurted out the question "What is Ranoadidas?" mind you I was rather sleepy at the time, and that question definitely woke me up.
One of Pablo's favourite phrase instantly came to mind: "Katak bawah tempurung" jua this girl.
Katak bawah tempurung; : A frog which lives under a cocunut shell will
think that the shell is the world. So, one who is like the frog will have
no knowledge oft hings/events/places aoutside his 'world'. He/she refuses to
venture out into the world-he/she remains ignorant but is happy with it.

How can anyone here not know Ranoadidas is beyond me; you hear about him all over the radio... almost every blog has a link to his... heck, we go to the cinema and the first promo we see is about his blog... Ranoadidas is like the Borneo Bulletin of the internet.. I just find it hilariously odd that anyone would fail to know who or what his blog is all about.
You know what's even funnier? This girl called in to win a Ranoadidas T-shirt. Well at least now she knows... and the DJ actually even had to explained to her what Rano's blog is all about... and she innocently went "aaaahhh...~"
hahah. bless.
Regardless...
Congratulations Rano on the anniversary, I'd love to come by but I've a flight to catch.. but I bet it'd be smashin'...
auf wiedersehen!

I don't supposedly claim her as 'katak bawah tempurung' as i didn't know who/what Rano is.. For those people who do not normally surf the internet and rather be the bookworm/doing something relevantly important somehow is not faulty for not knowing who Rano is. There is nothing wrong with it. They just don't surf and go online that much. No big deal i must say. So please don't say things to these people. Not everyone knows who Rano is, unlike Michael Jackson.
