Hey I want to share this story in English.
Hope you never mind my English is not so well. :)
Once several friends and I went to a chinese restaurant for a dinner together.
We had "合菜". ("fusion" in English? I am not sure ~)
One of our dishes is a fish.
We ate, and when the upper side of the fish is almost gone,
what we were going to do next, surly, is to turn the fish upside-down.
At that moment, one of my friends, who is a Thailand people,
seemed to be schokced and said:
"Oh, no, don't turn the fish upside-down."
"Why?" We wondered.
"Well...in Thailand, we don't turn the fish.
Because legend has it if we turn the fish,
the fisherman who caught this fish will turn over from his boat. (翻船) "
Really interesting, sounds like a curse?
We didn't know if that custom still prevailing in Thailand,
but that night,
everybody obeyed the rule and picked the fishbone out patiently.
:D
