Snooker, or Billards.. Watever ppl call it. In M'sia it's called Snooker, u go to a snookerium to play snooker. In Singapore, u go to a pool centre to play billards. Well, as long as we know how to game is played, everything's fine... In Snooker/Billards, we always use the term 'snooked' when there's a play whereby the a player has no other balls to hit other than his opponent's balls. Hitting the opponent's ball will result in a 'forced error' and he has to pay a penalty for it - losing points.

This word has become quite widely used in my everyday conversations.. Like - "Wa, dun snook him le la..." or "Wa!!! Kena Snooked!!!" and even "Snook him snook him!!"

As influential as i am...(Hmmm....) my friends and colleagues will start to think that "snook" is an 'in' word, and they started to use em.. Well during my shit session this morning, i began to analyse how they make "snook" their own style.

Colleague A - "Wa...!!! Kena Snoop~!!!!" --> Snoopy?
Colleague B - "Wa...!!! Kena SooooooooOOOt~!!" --> Gunshot??
Colleague C - "Wa...!!! Kena Smoke!!!" --> WTH????

So sometimes it's amazing how people refuse to ask the meaning of a word and use it their own way. Strange? Funny? Watever~~~
