- Did you hear about ******?
- Finally, he saw the light.
- Hope I never get divorced.
- Relax, it’s not like you’re abnormal like her.
- LOL, she is IS abnormal.
- I mean, seriously, it’s not like we’re surprised. I mean, remember when they first got together. I told her, I told her straight out I said ‘******, you’re so fucking lucky someone like ****** wants to be with someone like you’ because he’s gold, man
- He’s perfect
- I know, and she’s…
- LOL. Well she was always a bit weird but now she’s just totally taken things to the extreme
- She’s lost the plot
- Totally, and then she wonders why people have taken a step back from her like HELLO, get with the program
- I was telling her when she started writing all those years ago that it was a bad idea
- I was too!
- High five!
[High five]
- I said, ‘******, who’s gonna care what you say, seriously’ and she got all pissed off at me, whatever, I mean now, she’s striping all her clothes off and that book of hers, those fuck poems…
- Did you buy a copy?
- As if I would. And I’d never go to one of her shows. I’d rather go to the dentist.
- The only reason why it’s selling is because it’s sex
- Her poor parents…
- I know…
- Her mum was rushed to hospital the other day
- Fuck off
- Yeah. She nearly had a heart attack. It’s all the stress she puts them through
- Fuck, is she gonna be okay?
- I think so. She’s totally ruined their lives.
- GOD, why can’t she be normal, man?
- I don’t know. And her latest You Tube video. Someone asked me about it the other day, they were like ‘man, what’s going on with, ******’ and I was so embarrassed, because she’s family and I was like ‘I don’t know, man’
- She’s lost it. I don’t get it. She got a double degree in business, had the best job in programming and she threw it all away, her job, her marriage, everything, for the writing. You know, she’s going to wake up one day and regret everything, and then it’s gonna be too late.
- For sure. Did you hear she tried to get ****** back?
- Fuck off
- Yep. I’m not surprised. Went to get a big dose of reality and came running back.
- Obviously he didn’t want her.
- I don’t blame him.
- And he’s got his new girlfriend. He got together with her pretty quickly after ******
- Well he deserves a bit of happiness in his life after ******
- Totally.
- It’s going to be a hard life for ******
- I know
- When was the last time you saw her?
- Man, I don’t see her except for when she shows her face at family things
- I told you I went to her place once?
- No!
- Yeah. It’s like in a nice spot in Brunswick but when I saw it I was like ‘oh, ******’ in my head, like you have fallen from the graces, from a big, beautiful house in Pascoe Vale to this…I didn’t want to say shit-hole but it’s so small and the walls are cracked, and it’s old, and there’s no backyard…oh, poor little *****, she’s the one that’s going to suffer
- She’s such a cute little thing..
- Yeah…
- And you know some of her poems about wogs and stuff, they’re like, total bullshit. Our culture isn’t like that.
- She doesn’t know where to draw the line! If she could hear us now she’d write a poem about it and put it on her website.
- Totally.
- I hated the poem she wrote, what was it…? Oh, yeah, ‘love according to wogs’. That wogs only love you when you do what they want
- I know, I read it too. She took it down from her website, you know.
- Really?
- Yeah, I was looking for it the other day and I couldn’t find it.
- I wonder why…
- Anyway, it’s total bullshit. I mean, I may not agree with what she does but I love her, I mean, she’s family, man
- Me too. And I love my culture
- High five
[High five]
- It’s almost like she prefers to be an Aussie
- She hangs out with them now I heard
- No way I’d hang out with K.As*, no way
- LOL
- Well, I reckon she’s gonna have lots of regrets in the future, but by that time it’ll be too late, she will have lost everything and everyone
- Well, you make your bed you lie in it
- That’s right
- If she just tried a bit harder to be normal, if she took a break from the writing, but she doesn’t even try
- She doesn’t.
- It’s sad..really sad
- I know…
