It is currently the Chinese 7th Lunar month, where the dead is given 1 whole month to party here on earth. Technically, they are only given a day’s off. According to the Taoist believes, a day on the nether world is equivalent to 1 month on earth. Yup, it’s party time for the dead. To ensure order on earth, two parole officers are deployed by the king of Hades. Now, I am not sure how two officers can managed to hold rein to millions of party goers.

My mother will always use this opportunity to discourage me from staying out late. ” lang or kui ( human or ghost), you cannot tell the difference. Look at the legs, their legs dont touch the ground! Later they follow you and sleep with you, then you know!”
Had to admit, mum’s warning has a serious effect on me till now. The thought of just two parole officers for millions of party goers certainly does not sounds assuring to me. It was when I came back to Penang after 7 years of staying alone in KL, I realized the dead are not so scary after all. No doubt, the dead are not visually appealing. Give them a break, they dont have SK2 or Loreal in the nether world. I am also pretty sure, they dont have access to saloon and a hair dryer either, which explains the long wet hair. To be fair, some of the living human are not visually appealing either.
The dead on the left lacks hair care and good complexion. With a bit of mascara, SK2, hair do, viola, you get the right picture!
” Remember, the dead has mystical power that can wreck your life! They may possess you if you are spiritually weak!” so says my mum every single year during this period of time. yes, the dead has magical power that can harm a living being. 
The dead has magical powers to summon a third eye on the forehead and follows you to work, sleep and shit.
Those Thai and Japanese horror films always involved a pretty lady possessed by a vengeful spirit on then went on blood thirsty rampage. Then again their dead count is so insignificant compared to the undead.
So statistically, the living breathing so call human beings has a much higher hit count than the undead.
So who says the living wont kill?
The living can also give much hell to fellow human beings compared to the undead. There are also The livings who can equally stalk you to work, eat and shit. Worst case, they can even back stab on you! Those cute little angels are actually the real devil in disguise. Trust me, I was just recently back stabbed by an angelic -looking student of mine.
And how about crazy bosses? Crazy bosses that loves to micro-managed every detail of your life in the workplace as well out of the work place? Trust me, I rather face an undead anytime over a crazy boss. The most the undead would do is to scare me till I piss on my pants. Crazy boss drives me insane.
Even with make up and proper lighting, crazy boss sure drives me nuttier than a the undead
My current bosses avoid me like a plague after a student complain. To them, I am like the undead, best avoided at all times. So I guess the feelings are mutual then. Strangely, I never bode well with lady bosses above 40 years old married or unmarried ones. They say it is because of lack of sex. I dont even want to know. Must be one of those menopause thingy.I am not bringing in crazy wives to the discussion here, less I face repercussion from the wive. You get the drift rite…
There are also irritating ones in our communities. When they speak, its like shit spewing out from their mouths. They get on your nerves with their logical thinking that numbs your brain – the same effect of watching the ring consecutively back to back. Yup with a face that fathoms with so much hypocrisy, I do wonder if he is for real. As always, there is always one for each community be it in the workplace or in the nation.
This guy has much “follower” than the undead, scarier than the undead.
So what’s your verdict? The undead dont worries me anymore. It is the living breathing backstabbers, crazy female bosses, racist that scares the living out of me. The world would be a better place without them. Those are the actual undead with make-up…
