*sniffle sniffle* Is that why you don't comment any more? *sniffle sniffle*
I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND!
Reminds me of the SNL skit at the Italian restaurant, where the waiters were all over the wife.
"Do not be offended. This is our culture!"
Once again, on behalf of my people, I apologize.
If I had a dime for every time a "fellow" Greek tried to muscle in on a conversation between me and a pretty lady, and received the requisite bitchslapping for his efforts, well, I'd have a lot of fucking dimes, let me tell ya.
You do realize these guys are licensed by the city, and you can get their license (licence, whatever) numbers and file a complaint, right?
Harrassing women and fucking up the Olympics.
Fucking Greeks.
I laugh at your feeble attempts to bait me, imperialist.
Am I missing something here? You are a trained lawyer, or whatever they call them in that place from where you come, don't you know how to tell someone to back the fuck off? 'Sweetheart,' you say, collecting your girl cajones and looking him straight in the eye, 'love you to death, but the stalking has got to stop. Quit being an asshole and I'll buy your coffee again.' How is he to know that you mean 'no' if you don't say NO?
This could turn out to be something fun. What if we all turn up at Union Square some day and start harassing that Greek coffee guy? You know, ask him for his phone number... give him a hard time about his coffee quality...
I know some really hideous transvestite hookers (I know of some gorgeous ones, too), that would for, like, 40 bucks, hang around his coffee stall and try to get his phone number...
Any other ideas out there?
Because I can't be arsed.
No wonder England is in the state it is.
exactly.
We should all just sit down and have a nice cup of tea.
maccers, I'll give you the same advice I gave to ET: get some goddamn mace. I found a cool new version in Chinatown, a combo pepper spray/tear gas/ink version, police issue, Mace brand, and completely legal to carry.
I know Greeks. Sometimes, you need to make them cry if you want to bend them to your will.
The best way to make Greeks cry is to refuse to marry them.
The best way to make Greeks cry is not go to the Olympics, now that they're finally getting a roof over their stadium....
you like-ah the juice?
I still pronounce it "mace-ers" in my head, even though I know that's not right. Yes, mace the Greeks whenever possible.
I thought it was Mace-ers, too, until I was corrected.
I still like Suzyn's "sweetheart" speech the best.
Kick him in the nuts. He'll get the hint.
Hate that shit. So not just Greek men who do that crap.
someoneSomewhere: agreed! I taught my sister that art form at a young age, and she has used it more than once to finish stories like this.
Playing with the queen of hearts,
knowing it ain't really smart
The joker ain't the only fool
who'll do anything for you
When in doubt, the Juice, no, not Oran Jones, has the answer.
See that's the trouble, you English girls are too polite. If you don't want to resort to the nut kick right away just turn around and say "fuck off asshole". That usually works.
HTH.
/ny born and raised
Solution:
Get coffee from Greek guy-then pour coffee on Greek guy's genitals. Then tell him if he ever bothers you again-you'll have Vinnie and the boys do something far worse.
Nah, Pete, won't work on a Greek. Remember, we're the same buggers who fended off a massive Persian army with 300 randy Spartans, a slingshot and a toothpick. We live for that shit.
And threatening a Greek with violence delivered by Italians? It will only provoke laughter.
Still stuck on Jellyguy talking about bending Greeks. That's how stereotypes persist....
Jelly you may be right on that.
Being a percentage Greek myself, that may not work with using Mob guys as a threat.
That being said I don't know any man, that won't be screaming and running for something cool when assaulted by a hot cup of coffee, especially when it hits your genitals.
