Wierdos...Everywhere

It was a moderately wierd day...until i found out what happened to a couple of my friends...

Well in Moscow, Yellow Cabs are too expensive and we just don't use their services...and its common practice for Muscvites to hail down passing cars and get a ride to their destination for a fee...
I've been taking these 'cabs' for the past 6 years and till today (touch wood) nothing bad has happened...
SO...these friends of mine hailed a cab and were heading towards their destination when the 'cabbie' suddenly demanded for money...they then told him they'll pay him the moment they reach...he then claimed that he needs to refuel his car and he doesn't have cash on him...so they said get to the patrol station and we'll pay you...he didn't go into a patrol station,but he went about to swear...so when they were almost close to their destination they asked him to drop them off and paid him the previously agreed amount.
When they got off,he chased after them demanding more money and they told him that wasn't the price they had agreed for...soon every imaginable cuss word was spat out at them and when he didn't get what he wanted he spat on the face of one of them(literally)...

That in my opinion is highly traumatizing...

What even scarier is that...we always use the services of these cabbies to get around and most of the time we are alone...infact last night around 0045hrs i hailed a cab to get home and i took it for granted that alls good...now i am shit scared...i just realised that i take small gambles not thinking of the possible consequences...

The other reason why i had a wierd day is because Ms.Syuhada Ahmad and Mr.Dmitry Samokhin decided to provide entertainment...(recap):
*this is a phone conversation between syu and dmitry*
'B!! where are you now?'
'I have and appointment in a short while,i'm on my way there'
'Is it with me??...*cheeky smirk*'
'..mm..No...my secretary didn't say anything about a meeting with a Ms.Syuhada'
'oh...so now i have to make appointments to see you is it?...fine i'll do just that...'
'ok...while you are at it,tell my secretary that you are monyet calling from Milo Tv' (yes monyet as in the simian and milo as in the drink)

After half an hour...syu calls dmitry's office and does as told:

'Hi,Good Afternoon could i speak to Mr.Dmitry?'
'Sure, who should i say is calling?'
'...i'm calling from Milo Tv..'(at this moment she's trying hard not to laugh)
'Hold on please'

There was no answer on the other side so the secretary comes back to the line:

'I think he's in a meeting,shall i take a massage?'
'Is it possible for me to make an appointment to meet him tomorrow?'
'he's free around 3pm...could i have your name please?'
'its...M-O-N-Y-E-T'
'...mmoonnyee?...oh so you're french?'
'yes i am'
'i'll get him to call you back'
'thank you'

Now...how can you not laugh when someone has the balls to do something as wierd as that?here's the bad news...it didnt end there...syu kept harrassing dmitry about why he hasn't said yes to the appointment and wanted to know if he doesn't take her seriously...all he said to her was...

'sayang...how can i take the appointment seriously when a monyet calls from Milo TV wanting to meet me?'

Nuff' said eh Uncle Sam?

Talk about wierdos everywhere...(even in your own house)
