About This Design
Singapore Singlish - Bo Jio - No Invite, No Banana Cushion
"Bo jio" literally means "no invite", and is commonly used in Singlish (Colloquial Singaporean English) meaning "Why didn't you invite me to go". It is derived from the Hokkien (a southern Fujian Chinese dialect) pronunciation of "没招". Funnily, it has the same pronunciation in Hokkien as "没蕉", where the "蕉" means "banana". In this case, "没蕉" literally means "no banana".
Therefore, this design is a pun on the words "bo jio", usually used in the context of "why never invite me go", but could also mean what has been graphically drawn - "no banana". Great as a souvenir gift from Singapore!

The ordering process was easy, I was warned my image may be slightly blurry due to condition of my image however when cushions arrived there was no blurriness and pixels look great. Didn't take long to arrive at all, overall very happy 😀. Great print work and it looks awesome
