No Comprende?

And while I attract mostly D.O.M.s  (whereas I can put different meanings in D - Desperate, Drunk or Dying), most of my friends lure a melting pot of testosterone from cougar-loving high school boys to awkward and creepy dancing foreigners, never in my wildest dreams have I imagined that what had happened during one of our night out’s happened.

On our way home from a night of “bible study”,we dropped by McDo (The Fort) to grab a bite or two.  If noticed, this certain McDo is the hangout of people who just came from a night of careless whispers  and ecstacy-induced gucci parties. Thus, it has become a hub for nursing hangover. Anyway, we were all seated discussing some really important matters about the “bible” when suddenly one of us (Cristina) noticed that a foreigner is mouthing some words which she cannot understand. So she goes, “Huh?”. The foreigner then brought his drink and started using sign language. He pointed at one of my friends  (Ariane)who was wearing an headband saying that it was pretty (in sign language). All of a sudden, his friends who were also speech-handicapped started huddling around our little group of “bible students”.

Another guy is starting a conversation (in sign language) to which none of us are able to elicit a proper response. So one of us (I think it was Ron), politely said the sorry-but-we-have-to-go-spiel.  All of us walk out, half-embarrassed, half-shocked and half-guilty.

What an awkward situation it was. Inside the car, we still can’t get over it.  We all remember how tensed most of us are because we don’t know how to respond appropriately when these …how shall i put it… confident men starts making conversation.

We all felt bad for excusing ourselves and walking out but in a perfectly insane world, how would you have responded?  No hablo esta senyales lenguahe?

K. I still suck at spanish.
