Twilight Zone!

I'm really tired but I just have to write about this before going to sleep..

I just had the weirdest experience ever.. I don't even know how to feel about it.

My only weekend off, my friends and I decided to go to a Shisha shop 2 minutes away. When we get there a couple of other people we know are there.. 2 girls.. one arab one african.. a saudi 7jazi guy.. the owner and his wife. My friends consist of an arab guy and girl. We sit and the other group start talking.. very loudly, rowdy, and finally they even get lewd.
The Saudi guy is cursing right and left at these girls and they all laugh.. I'm talking curses that involve animals.. shoes.. level of intelligence.. it was unbelievable. They start talking about a drag show they went to...! Men dressed up as women.. vice versa.. homosexuality.. it was disgusting. The owner and his wife were noticably uncomfortable..

I was appalled by the saudi guy's manner.. he started talking about how the girls didn't know the difference between 7aram and not 7aram and he tries to make his point to me as I meekly smile and nod.. finally my guy friend asks that we leave. Outside, we're talking by our car and the other girls get in a cab and are waiting for the saudi guy.. he comes out and curses their mothers.. (and not just "yil3an") .. and they all laugh. My friend was looking at me like "can you believe this!" ..

Twilight zone...

I shoulda just stayed home and watched 20/20. Barbara Walters conducted King Abdulla's first interview since he took the rein. Did anyone catch it?

She came to saudi:
" I sat in the men's section in a starbucks and was asked to leave" .. no shit!
I hate american journalism.. here's the transcript: http://abcnews.go.com/2020/International/story?id=1214706&page=1

Funny excerpt:

WALTERS: Let's talk about Iran … Iran has become more powerful as a result of the turmoil in Iraq. Do you see that as a concern for Saudi Arabia?
ABDULLAH: The questioner is often times more knowledgeable than the questionee.
