Another Rude Australian Girl

I need to vent for a second. So all week I've been psyched that my friend is coming into town to visit me. I went down to Venice to pick up my "friend" Jelly today and she wan't anywhere to be found. The people at the Venice Beach Hostel said that "she already left a few hours ago with a small group of swarthy looking men wearing jumpsuits and hoods."

Nice manners chica. How rude is that?

The lady at the Hostel was sorta pissed that she'd left without paying and checking out so she starts yelling at me.

I haven't heard from Jelly all day today. I feel a little hurt that she left to have fun with some other guys that she probably just met. I'm not sure if I will even want to take her to Disneyland when she calls me to apologize.

She said she was going to bring me some Tim Tams.

The loss of the Tim Tams must be particularly difficult to bear...

Melba said...

yeah bevis, aussie GIRLS. bad news.

but yes, tim tams are good. and i am sorry for your loss kranki

Melba said...

hey, maybe she was kidnapped by the swarthy group of jumpsuit (??!!)-wearing, hooded men

should someone be worrying rather than all of us making le jokes?

the evidence:

1. she left without paying and checking out
2. she hasn't contacted kranki who had obviously arranged to take her to disneyland for payment of chocolate biscuits
3. THEY WERE WEARING HOODS AND WERE SWARTHY AND IN A GROUP. AND JUMPSUITS!!

sorry is a jumpsuit like something freddy mercury wore, or is that american for tracksuit. no, you guys say 'sweatsuits' don't you?

They are not jumpsuits you arrogant, imperialist, zionist worms. They are uniforms that we wear to help spread fear and confusion and cut down on dry cleaning costs.

BEVIS said...

MG, your emphasis on GIRLS has confused me.

I was referring to all Aussies.

I'm not into sexual discrimination and stereotyping, much less bad-mouthing one particular gender over another.

I hate people who do that.

Especially chicks.

Melba said...

beeve, don't go the peeve

i meant yeah bevis, as in i agree [and i was just joshing]

then i switched to aussie girls because kranki had specified aussie girls. he said ANOTHER rude australian girl, so i thought there must have been some MORE. then i said, they are the worst. still joking here, mind you, as opposed to just aussies, who you said JOKINGLY "who needs 'em"

wasn't taking you to task, you misunderstood me

sorry, didn't mean to offend anyone
i was just joking about it all. that's what i hate about writing - you can't hear the tone of voice. so much so that i can't even hear if you are being really stern with me now bevis, mildly pissed off, or anything...

i love aussie girls, i am one, we rock, all girls rock, all aussies rock, all men rock, all people rock, etc etc

[smiles sweetly and hopes forgiveness will be forthcoming]

ps sorry kranki for having an almost-spat with bevis on your blog

BEVIS said...

Whoa, Nelly!*

Um, I certainly agree with you about written text not being able to impart the joking tone, MG, because I wasn't at all having a go.

Please view my entire comment, above, in a facetious tone.

All I said was I was confused by the way you emphasised GIRLS, because it looked like you might have been correcting me or something, so I was confused (merely confused - not angry) about how you'd taken what I'd said and how I was supposed to take your response.

I didn't think you were angry with me and I certainly wasn't being angry back at you.

(Do you think we could have made bigger tools of ourselves on Kranki's blog?!)

:)

Anyway, my mock-rant about gender iniquity was merely to set up my closing gag 'especially chicks', but it was not a dig at you. Maybe that's where this all went sour. I was saying I hate sexist people, especially female ones. I could have said male ones; it'd amount to the same gag (except that I'm a male, so it wouldn't make much sense coming from me that way around).

Hopefully we're friends again.

No 'forgiveness' is necessary, as neither of us did anything wrong, don't worry.

Oh, hello Kranki - are you still here? Don't mind us having our very public counselling session in your blog. Carry on.

* This is my guess as to your real name. Am I right?

Melba said...

oh bevis

let's just say my specialty is going off half cocked sometimes. or what would be the female equivalent

i see things too literally i guess sometimes. just call me the new aleks.

Anonymous said...

the female equivalent would be going off half-uncocked, I believe.

Anonymous said...

Surely it'd be half-vadged?

la nadine said...

"another"?

who are the other rude ones?

*crosses fingers*

BEVIS said...

Oh, don't worry, Nads - you're definitely up there.

la nadine said...

thanks bevis!

*exhales*

kranki said...

You all have detention.

Half-cocked female equivalent would be semi-snatched, or partially pussied or half-hump-holed.

Let's keep it klassy kids.

BAD PONIES!!
