Yum Cha Novice Does Not Let Soup Dumplings Cool Adequately

A local man has had the finish stripped off his tongue today at the Remienko Park Golf Club because he failed to respect the soup dumplings.

Sitting at a table not far from where The Advocate's executive were dining with leaders from Ansell's flavoured condom division, where they were celebrating the inking of a season-long sponsored content deal that should keep this masthead in print for another quarter at the very least, some bloke in a blue shirt let out an unimpressive moan scream.

"Ahhhh!!" he said.

"I burned my tongue!"

Some in the crowd thought blue shirt man was choking, include The Advocate's editor, Clancy Overell leapt to his seat and rendered assistance by punching the man with a closed fist right between the shoulder blades.

As calm was restored to the restaurant, the man simply explained that he'd burned his tongue on a soup dumpling.

One of the Ansell executives filled a banana-flavoured ultra thin condom full of ice and implored blue shirt to put it on his tongue.

He obliged, then remarked moments after that it actually did taste like banana.

The man then asked another to put on the large bruise forming on his back.

More to come.
