Today, my section was treated to a special sort of performance. Bogan bonding.
We're located on the ground floor and just a few meters away is an artistic fountain that we generally just call 'the monstrosity'. Please note, it's a fountain, not a frickin' piece of climbing equipment. Yet young children climb all over it, tourists take photos of their friends hanging from it and others.... well. Hmmm.
Late this afternoon two bogans climbed on top of it, giving them a comfortable perch right at our eye line, although our windows are all tinted, so the two had no idea that our entire office all had a good view and were making disgusted remarks as they smoked away and hocked gorbies down onto the pavement.
Deb ended up calling the police and in the middle of her conversation, the rest of us who had returned to our seats were startled to hear her say "...yes they're- ohmygodhe'sgothispenisout!" Not only did bogan boy one have his penis hanging out airing in the breeze, every couple of minutes he'd give it a good ol' jerk around while his friend smiled and smoked away next to him.
We were all just completely stunned. Seriously, what makes a person think that's okay? What makes a persons mind go, "you know what, today I'm going to sit outside an office window with my friend and wang on my wang"?
Liz ended up taking a short video of it with her iphone as evidence for the police and we all joked that by 8 tonight it should be on youtube. (fairly sure she wasn't serious about that... fairly.)
Anyway, the police showed up not long after and moved them on after taking their details, patting them down and giving them a warning.
.... Fifteen minutes later, two five year olds were playing on the fountain while their mother happily watched.
real life,
what?,
