OverviewPlease note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! TalkingCock.com is a Singaporean satirical and humour website. The website features various articles and jokes spoofing Singapore current affairs, and includes a few Flash games too. Talking cock , which describes the act of engaging in idle banter or perhaps more literally talking nonsense , is a common phrase in Singlish. Started in August 2000 by Colin Goh, a film director and former lawyer, the website provides commentary and pokes fun at local news and issues, in particular political, with much of its content written by anonymous contributors. It has established notability over the years, with mention given by the Singapore parliament, the foreign media, and Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong in his 2006 National Day Rally speech. In a country of 4.4 million people (as of 2006), the popular website receives 4 million hits per month. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Lambert M. Surhone , Miriam T. Timpledon , Susan F.
