    Yes, in the phonetic alphabet 'kilo' is k. There is an old Rusky sub class named after it.

    I wonder how many kilos Kilo can benchpress?

    A typical Hongky, maybe 2kg?

    I had to re-read your comment because initially I thought you said a typical Hongkie *weighs* 2kg. Haha.

    They can no doubt probably benchpress an LV bag!

    Chunky gold jewellery is out too, diamonds are much more efficient, weight wise.

    Bling is so out in Hong Kong. Brand is always in … luxury brands, naturally.
