Hola! G'day! ...And I don't know any Hungarian so to Letti

First time in my life I feel it's good to be a Hungarian.

[ZoNeSeeK]

is it normally bad to be a hungarian?

[fernandito]

I was thinking the same thing.

[ZoNeSeeK]

they have killer deli meats!

[Letti]

is it normally bad to be a hungarian?

Let me think... I think most of the Hungarians would answer without hesitation: YES

[ZoNeSeeK]

But whats wrong with Hungary?

[Letti]

Oh, long story. And it's not easy to say bad things about your own country.
But if I didn't belong to someone who I love a lot I don't think I would be here. I don't say I would go and I would never come back... in fact I love this country a lot. It's beautiful.
But I am sure without him I wouldn't be here.

[ZoNeSeeK]

You mean in terms of opportunity, economics, traditionalism etc?

*nods in silence*
I am an English teacher and I see how many people go abroad. Many of my ex-colleagues (the bestest ones) have already left Hungary to work and live abroad. Some of them are planning to come back but I am not sure at all they will.

[Odetta]

I think everyone feels that way at points in their lives... wanting to leave your own country to see what's out there for opportunity. At least we are women living in countries where we CAN leave... because we have the same opportunities as men do.

i just remembered that one of my very best friends in high school was hungarian. he was impressed that i was the only person he ever knew that was able to say his last name correctly. szemerei.

[fernandito]

(blank stare)

s-meh-ray?

[sarajean]

nope.

he and i used to play star wars laser tag around my apartment complex.

good times. i haven't thought of him in forever. (his name was roland, too!)

[fernandito]

Did he have blue bombardier eyes and carry a gunbelt around?

[sarajean]

eyes, yes. belt, no.

[ZoNeSeeK]

did you squish genitals together?

[sarajean]

never.

never ever.

that's not to say i wouldn't have, i was a bit of a slatternly girl in my youth, but he was...too pure...for the likes of me.

[ZoNeSeeK]

slatternly?

were you a hussy, sarajean? a bit of a strumpet? a BRAZEN HARLOT, if you will?

[sarajean]

um...maybe.

[ZoNeSeeK]
