Careful What You Wish For.​

I dropped in at a mate's place one Saturday afternoon in Freemantle, a couple of years back. "Are you going to stay for the show later" they both said excitedly to me.

Not knowing what that was, I agreed, and soon three chairs were placed outside on their verandah. The view wasn't the best as their old convict-built home, stared straight into the Neighbour's window across the street.

"Oh it's about to start, get ready" said jenny a mate's wife on entering the room, she said, "this is yours" and handed me a crayon and a solid block of 400 ml square solid white card.

It was curious I must admit, sitting there on that verandah talking quietly and drinking, looking over the nearby rooftop across the very narrow street.

Until the Neighbour across the road, who was obviously very excited groaned loudly as obviously her lover had arrived, to meet her. She started crooning and then moaning and then screaming...It went on for a quite a while, then, it was silent.

Bob and Jenny immediately responded with hoots and hollers of wild applause, both stomping their feet on their wooden verandah loudly, and whistling. They indicated towards me, so I likewise enthusiastically joined in, as well.

Suddenly, two faces appeared through the curtain in the Neighbours wide open window and stared directly at us.

As organized earlier, we then all sat down and revealed our scores, by flipping them over in a one two three reveal.

I gave a score of 6 because he really did put in a huge effort.

Both bob and Jenny both held up a harsh critique, as each held up only a one. The Neighbours window slammed shut."

Yaaaay," said Jenny loudly, " for "6 months I have been respectfully asking her to do that".

No

I don't see the connection. Of course, I agree do be careful what we wish for, but I don't get how it links to my freo tale?

Or is it related to another person's post? it is curious.

I'd suggest it was an overseas joke, several people on here bitched about jokes containing nickels and quarters etc ... so, I'm guessing to keep the whingers happy, an American city was simply removed and a Ozzy city inserted.

I have a funny reaction when I get scorn or verbal abuse, I've had so much of it growing up, that over time I've learnt to have a crack and give it straight back in humour. I.E:

I entered a butchers shop yesterday and found there was a bit of loud rugby Game of origin argy-bargy stirring, going on across the counter between the butcher and a customer.

I'm a West Australian so of course, I was questioned where my loyalties lay. With a huge vocal Queenslander on my side of the counter and a big country butcher on the other, I got a flurry of digs and jibes coming my way from both angles.

Anyway after a few humorous big verbal smack backs across, and along the counter while purchasing my dog bones, and a few snags, I got both sides laughing.

The butcher called out laughing as I was leaving and said mate do you know how much of bloody idiot you are?
I said mate I don't tell anybody that, I figure it's up to others to work out.

I waved with my dog bones and drove home, left them all laughing, I suggest giving it a go mate, it's more fun roasting someone, than letting them rile us up.

Works for me anyway...
