Facebook user Umesh Tekani’s funny post about Hungry Ghost month has not gone viral with over 3,000 shares in just a few hours.

Just in case you can’t see the user’s post, this is what he said:

Last night, after dinner, I was taking a walk on the road. When I walked past a convenient store I thought of going in to buy something. Then I realised that I didn’t have money with me. So I phoned my family to bring some money to me.

While waiting for my money, I saw an old man burning joss paper by the road side. I went to have a chat with him.

“What are you doing here? ” I asked him.

“I am sending money to my family” he said.

Then he asked me, ” What are you doing here?”

“I am waiting for my family to send money to me.”

On hearing this, his face turned pale and he ran away quickly.

I shouted to him, “Hey, don’t run! I’m just waiting for my family to send money to me!”
