Majho – Blow up @ Dinner with local (please note I wasn’t there) Whole scene approximant 20 minutes
I wasn’t involved in this so I may have to revise this story since I don’t have firsthand knowledge but the story is too funny NOT to tell.
A party of six of our members went to dinner at a local diner that was across the street from the hotel we were staying at. It would remind you of a Denny’s in a way. They had a good / reasonably priced breakfast, but honestly I wouldn’t recommend it for any other meals.
The restaurant was busy that night in question was placed in the back of the restaurant in a large booth. There were a handful of other people in the back in different stages of their dinners. One such group was two women.
In our group the server had taken their orders and brought drinks. They were having a leisurely conversation about the international competition while their food was being prepared. When the two-ladies behind them started arguing, apparently, both had been drinking Mia Tia’s.
One, an elderly woman in a wheelchair was also hard of hearing. The other must have been the caretaker/ Designated Driver, but had drunk a bit too much. Our group didn’t know how much had been consumed at this point, but did notice the slurring from both and due to the lady in the wheelchair’s hearing problem the conversation was LOUD.
Our group thought they must be locals and come into the restaurant often because the hostess knew to put them in the back.
The argument was over how much to tip the waitress. Apparently the wheelchair hard of hearing lady was also paying the bill. One in our party who was facing towards them started giggling. She states she couldn’t help it because it was pretty funny to hear and watch them. The three that had their backs to the scene couldn’t see what was going on only was able to hear the conversation were trying to get the giggler to stop by kicking her under the table and giving her various looks. These attempts didn’t succeed in time.
The caretaker who was quite inebriated saw the laughing and lost it. She jumped up or should I say almost fell out of her chair in her attempt to stomped over to our group’s table to give a tongue lashing. This only made the giggling member laugh harder and some of the other six joined in. She proceeded to yell at everyone at the table.
One in our group had identification tag and her visitor pass on her that she was trying to cover. The first giggler could not stop laughing more kicking and facial expressions was going on.
The irritated woman pointed at the only male at the table and said he called him “GAY MAN” in Hawaiian “Manho” and returned around to get back into her chair. Which she had trouble achieving and made the laughing not only from our table erupt more but now she had caught the whole back of the restaurant’s attention. This didn’t go over very well to the already irritated caretake
r.
She turned around staying safely in her chair this time and called him a Titi boy, which she pronounced (TEE TEE) which was a complete contradiction to her first derogatory comment! You guessed it the room erupted in laughter. By this time the serving staff that was hiding through the first half leaned out to watch the dinner and show act.
She was all worked up by this and got up out of her chair stomped over to do more yelling. I don’t know how many times this patterned happened but know by the time the two ladies (using that word loosely) left everyone in the whole restaurant knew what was going on.
I was surprised that the manager didn’t try to resolve the situation when it first happened or that either of the waitress’ didn’t come out to help calculate the tip to get them out faster. It seemed that everyone KNEW these two and were staying far away.
When the two ladies left the manager appeared our group wasn’t sure if the manager had to be called in or if he was detained another way, but apologized for the disturbance. He told them that this never has happened before with them.
As our group left the restaurant they looked around to see if the irritated care taker woman had dumped the hard of hearing wheel chair lady in the bushes and was waiting for them to leave. I am happy to report they were able to finish their meal, paid the bill and left peacefully.
