Man Dies In Hawker Queue; Family Refuses To Leave Spot

Singaporean retiree Lim Koh Bak has finally achieved the ultimate national dream by expiring peacefully while waiting four hours for a bowl of famous Laksa.

Witnesses claim Lim’s heart stopped somewhere between the tray return station and the drinks stall, yet his body remained upright, supported by the sheer density of the crowd.

“Aiya, he already wait so long, cannot waste the effort leh,” his widow remarked while nudging his corpse three inches forward.

“The uncle at the stall very fierce one, if we leave now, later he scold us for play-play.”

Medical experts suggest that the Singaporean circulatory system is powered entirely by the FOMO generated by seeing more than five people standing in a straight line.

“Steady lah, he die doing what he love,” a fellow queuer noted, stepping over Lim’s cooling feet.

“I also wait three hours already, if I don't eat this prawn mee, I will also die!”
