About the Book
Corn-sider yourself warned.
Ever wondered what a hawker dish, a durian, and a compass have in common? Neither did we — until now.
Some jokes are quick one-liners. Others are little scenes that build a pun brick by brick until it lands (sometimes with a groan, sometimes with a giggle — often both).
This is a book for anyone who's ever laughed at a bad joke and then immediately made it worse.
Clean, family-friendly, and distinctly local in flavour, every joke is something you can share at the dinner table, forward in a group chat, or quote unprompted at the worst possible moment.
What's Inside
Themes woven through every page
Hawker & Local Flavour
Kaya toast, char kway teow, and the humble durian — all starring in jokes that hit a little too close to home.
MRT Life & Group Chats
Peak-hour crowds, passive-aggressive WhatsApp messages, and the great saga of finding a seat.
Quick One-Liners
Short, sharp puns that land in under a sentence — blink and you'll miss the groan.
Scene-Builders
Longer setups that pile pun upon pun, brick by brick, until the whole thing collapses into laughter.
Special Occasions
Birthdays, weddings-turned-'Sat-ding,' and celebrations that somehow always end up punnier than planned.
Clean & Family-Friendly
Every single joke you can read aloud at the dinner table without anyone leaving the room.
