  If you can get this, it goes to say that your Hokkien see pey powerful and you should be proud of yourself.
  
  There was an old man who was hit by a can thrown by someone from the flat.
  
  So he called for a neighbour to get his grandson. He told the neighbour to relay a message to his grandson:
  
  "kong kong kong, kong kong kong kong, kong kong kong kong."
  
  (Do u know what the old man was trying to say??? try it before u scroll down)
  
  This means, different Hokkien tones are used for each word, so as to sound like :
  
  "Grandpa says, can knocked Grandpa, Grandpa giddy."
