Fun Brit Phrase: "Drunken Yobs"


Yes, there's a story behind that; The restaurant at the hotel also served as a bar, but Nick said that since it was at a hotel it wouldn't be full of "drunken yobs". Right. I'm not sure what a drunken yob is (or at least a yob), but I think one was there on Friday night. This guy (we nicknamed him Billy Bob) kept coming over to our table and flirting with us. Then he put some total honkey tonk songs in the juke box and asked me and Becky to dance with him, which greatly annoyed Delton and Nick.

First off, when we came into the room and hadn't even gotten a table yet, he noticed my superman t-shirt and asked me with a wink if I liked super men. I told him that Nick was my superman. He looked back from me to Nick and then slowly, he comprehended the fact that I was not at all interested in him. So he walked away. Then he seemed to think that if he became best friends with Nick, that he could hang out with me and Becky. Grrrrr... So Nick is trying to walk over to Marisol and Suz's table, and the guy stands right in his way and starts trying to make conversation. Nick was annoyed by now and kept walking. The guy finally got out of his way, and then Nick steered me in front of him, and we escaped. Kind of... *sigh* Billy Bob, it turned out, had also been hitting on Suz, and when he saw us all together, it must have been a redneck's dream come true, cuz he came walking... er... stumbling over, asking us to dance with him... again. For some stupid reason, I felt like I had to be polite, but I wanted to shout, "get lost!!!!" (should I have included a please in that?). Finally, Billy Bob saw someone else, and made his way over to another table, where he sat down and just started talking. The woman tried to pointedly ignore him, but he didn't get the hint. But at least he was leaving us alone. I think, and correct me if I'm mistaken Nick, but he definately would fit under the "yob" classification.
