It’s a local habit to give people takjil or meals/drinks specially for breaking the fasting. Haruka Nakagawa (Japanese) and Lee Jeong Hoon (Korean) do it too.
it’s good for Youtube content, but more than Youtube consideration, usually foreigners, indeed, enjoy local culture / habits.
“Indonesia is a country with an old soul and a young heart. You value your rich cultural heritage, and at the same time you are busy conquering the future. It is the combination of old and new that makes your country so endlessly attractive” ~ King Willem-Alexander
As far as I know, the jokes by some (not all) Jakarta’s comedians are indicated with disconnection to logic in order to give such an ultimate ‘punch’ with crazy way. Such a genre of joke rules. Melaney Ricardo’s jokes are typical Jakarta’s
Say, if in daily coversation somebody tells something related to a place e.g. “I studied in ITB University”, perhaps by the right context, one will say “Do you know Mr. A?” (whose job is a lecturer)
Then such a normal conversation gets transformed by Melaney into humor zone.
(After Haruka replied about her birthday)
“Ow.. Haruka, you’re an aquarian then.. Do you know Rinaldi? (Rinaldi is a random unknown name) He’s also an aquarian”
@PEMBIMBINGUTAMA / BAMBANG WIDODO is a Twitter account, whose special parts are:
The admin only gives reply baits and they only deal with nothing but “small talks” (even though the admin is actually a lecturer)~
Using capslock for the typing to give funny impression.
The replies matters, coz they’re entertaining.
Example:
“HOW COME IT HASN’T RAINED AT MY HOUSE?”
Chosen Replies:
“In my analyse, that’s because the rain water hasn’t fallen to your house, sir”
“If it has happened for three years, just expect for a doomsday”. He replied:”but a few days ago it rained”, the replier: “if so, that means the rain is being tiresome”
“you should drag your house then”
“you shouldn’t be in your house, isn’t the rain outside your house?”
“perhaps your house hasn’t got registered (for accepting the rain)”
“perhaps there is an undercovered rain shaman in your house”
When he, Jongdae AKA Bandung Oppa, came for the first time to a warung for having a meal, the attendant usually ask: “Where are you from?” He replies: “I’m from Korea”. And then the attendant will say: “Are you the little brother of Lee Min Ho’s?”. Yes, it sounds the typical humor in Bandung city.
He found this situation with the same question and the same teasing by the attendant in different warungs. 😂 Dunno if it’s also funny in your culture 😀
Humor has become common stuff for common people here.
