Anyway so let me introduce you to Leslie. He came over to our table and asked which one of us liked accents the best as his friend Steve had a Welsh accent. We all stared blankly at him and shrugged. I totally dig accents however this clearly was Leslie's "in" with women so i told him accents do not impress me. So Leslie sits down "just for 5 minutes" and in those "5 mintues" which were really like an hour he procedes to tell us he's 37 years old numerous times, he practically bear hugs K and Jennifer tells him several times "no touching." His politics are disturbing he's a conservative and declare's his absolute love for Stephen Harper....Bush....and that he would kiss the ground Mike Harris walks on. Clearly none of us have anything in common with Leslie and it only gets worse.
Leslie prefaced his thoughts with "i'm not a racist but...." i'm sure you can all see where this is going. He then procedes to tell us that he wants his baby to look like him....which we all agree that it should as it will be coming from him unless of course he adopts. He then tells us that he does not want his baby to look Chinese or Black or...., "is that racist?" We're all like "YES." Leslie i'm sure was not feeling the love at our table and had his Welsh friend Steve come over and join us while he got himself a pint. Steve was extremely hard to understand as his accent was so thick. At one point he said something and i repeated "you have more fun with men?" to which he replied "no no no, more fun with me mum." Basically he thought we were boring (come on now, those of you that know us ...PLEASE!!) Steve didn't like that I thought he preferred the company of men and left the table. Leslie then returns and at some point tells Jennifer that she has the eyes of a magician (What the fuck does that mean LOL) calls her our Leader and continues to make racist remarks (I ask everyone if we're on Candid Camera, maybe it's all a joke). After a few more horrible words from his mouth K has decided that she's had enough and tells him she thinks it's time he left. He then asks Jennifer and I if we agree to which of course we do. This angers Leslie, he gets up walks forward and yells "Fuck you all" then in a softer tone "I didn't really mean that, goodnight" as he stumbles into chairs knocking them over in his stuppor.
The girls and i then decide that the next people who want to sit at our table will have to tell their most embarassing story and we'll pretend like we've already told ours to one another. (This stems from an anal beads story some man told PP and Jennifer one evening).
So after a few mintues of being free from Leslie, in walk Carl and Kevin. Carl and Kevin had a bet going and wanted to know who was American as we had Marlboroughs sitting on the table. We invite them to sit down as they seem like a breath of fresh air after the other two mofos and they even humour us with their most embarassing stories.
I actually made it to the Raptors game as i drank lots and lots of water at the party. It was a very intense sit on the edge of your seat, stand up and cheer kind of game. The Raptors were leading most of the time, however it turned around in the last few minutes so they lost 97-96 to the Mavericks. I really enjoyed the game, and the halftime show was amazing, very Cirque du Soleil.

Thanks for coming to my party. Best tiki luau *ever*!
Great game eh?? Too bad that it had to end that way... oh and that halftime show was so homo erotic it was classic. I was in awe of what they were doing out there, insane.
LOL!!!!
I love your treatment of Leslie and Steve. I will say it again, you can be funny without knowing it :)
So you had a blast this weekend, eh? We need to hang out.
What was with those guys?? I hate that whole "I have an accent, think I'm hot" thing. NOT IMPRESSED. haha Sounds like you had a fun weekend nonetheless :)
Leslie sounds kinda freaky, though I would have seen that coming. I mean, I'm not racist, but c'mon, he's hangs out with Welsh people. These are the same people who gave us Charlotte Church and...well...Charlotte Church! :P
don't forget that i also have the hair of a queen. the eyes of a magician and the hair of a queen!
who comes up with this shit!?!?
PP, they would not be smart enough to wear such a shirt!!
TT, thanks for inviting me, i loved it!!
Scott, it was a great game. I loved when one of the Mavericks were about to dunk the ball and Bosh pushed it out of his hand...awesome. I actually got excited about this game.
Yrautca, there's the small problem of distance, and you don't like to have fun :P
Jlee, it would have been more impressive had we been able to understand what he was saying.
Michael, Leslie was kinda freaky. He even let me take his photo and said i could post it...but then i felt bad doing so.
Jennifer, oh yes i forgot, the hair of a queen. What is that supposed to look like exactly...oh wait i'll just look at you :P
Who invented anal beads anyway?
Thanks for the photo of Inflatable Raptor. He's my fave!
Doncha hate people who can't take a hint?
All your stories remind me that I have not been out in the bar scene for such a long time. I remember the days of random guys sitting at my table and annoying me until the wee hours -- yeah, I don't miss it. Now I just go to sports bars and sit with my own friends who annoy me until my little suburban bedtime.
OMG... dude...really.
My (we are on a break but might get back together) boyfriend is Irish. He has a nice accent.
-N
That stupid Raptors game, I was pissed. To lead all the way and to give an open lay-up with 1 second left!
Anyway, I used to always go and sit at some random table, never worked.
i have an accent, would you do the same to me if i came over and had a drink with you?
be warned you're coming over this way in a month and you'll be the one with the accent!
Anonymous...that's a very good question i'm not sure.
WIGSF, i thought of you when Inflatable Raptor came out haha.
SS, i know this has been going on for years i can't take much more LOL.
Natalia, i've read about you and Mr. Hagfish on your blog. Why the break?
BB, i know the game was great and awful all at the same time.
PX haha no we'd never do that to you!! We could not understand Steve at all and he didn't appear to like us very much. Do the English dig Canadian accents? :)
Loved this post.
And I also loved the fact that the Mavericks took down the Raptors (sorry, but it's true. Ha).
Also, Leslie was priceless as anybody who starts a sentence with ""i'm not a racist but...." is in fact a racist.
That being said, I loved his eyes of a magician line. I'm going to store that one away.
Maybe he meant I had hair like a transvestite!
also, you got permission to put the picture up, you should put it up.
we shall see when you get here...i've no idea, it's been a long time since i saw degrassi junior high (only point of reference that i know to be canadian)
oh yeah, I forgot to say "GO MAVS!!" as well! hahaha
That was great story telling about the Leslie dude. What a loser. You guys handled yourselves very well.
Glad you like accents :) – though they can be tough – a strong Welsh accent is more like a foreign language. After a while it just sounds just noise!
2DP, Jlee and Slop....The MAV's won by a point....a bloody point!!!! They're not so great :P
Jennifer, i missed the whole "hair like a.." convo, i was in the bathroom quel surprise. I think you have hair of a weather woman :)
PX,Oh Degrassi, such a great show!!
Rawbean, if Leslie had gotten out of hand, Jennifer has some experience bouncing men from bars so we were safe :P
Aussie Pom, hopefully i'll see you on tonight and you can give me some cool places to visit in England.
...i only wish i remember what he said about your mouth jennifer. you were clearly the woman for him (despite your dubious racial heritage.) i was so broken when he told me i was more the welsh guy's type than his. sigh. ashley, you were in the bathroom and will sadly never know your standing with him. put his picture up!
