Tales of nonsense and items of little interest, sometimes true, always poorly thought through. Less sophisticated than most newspapers and magazines.

The Vomiting Little Person

You need some spare cash to rent out the upstairs bar at the club where I work, and plenty of it. $10,000 to be exact. That is how much it costs to rent the place out for a private function such as a birthday party. We get a lot of “industry” parties, (if you don’t know what I mean by “industry” I would like to shake your hand!)

We get a lot of plastic people who “host” their show off parties there, thus becoming a “promoter” for the evening and thereby throwing their ego’s around just like they throw their money around. Despite the obvious high society aspirations of the “host’s”, these types of event still end up attracting people who under normal circumstances would not be welcome. I’m talking about the friends of a friend’s sister’s cousin type people who somehow either mysteriously appear on the guest list or tag along as the “+1” that the “host” felt obligated to put on the invitation. This is not to say that all these people are bad guests, most of the time they are better behaved and nicer than the fuckin’ egomaniacs that are there just to be seen, but oftentimes it is painfully obvious that these people do not get out much, if at all. Such was the case with ‘The Puking Midget.’

The event was a combination birthday/ cd release party for some no name girly group. Most of the people were friendly enough, except the “promoter” who was a wanker. Lights too bright, lights too low, not that one this one, it’s too stuffy in here etc. etc.
The crowd of about 300 was behaving itself, no fights, no one giving any lip, everybody enjoying themselves. The DJ was shite, he wasn’t so much a DJ really, more like a guy who played records, mostly those released by Lil John. I’m digressing here…

I had to look several times to make sure I wasn’t seeing things. I wasn’t quite sure, I kept getting glimpses through the crowd on the dance floor, but finally I got a clear look and I had been right. Somebody had let a fuckin’ kid in here! It was supposed to be 21 and over and those bastards on the front door had let a child in! No doubt the parents had greased their palms with a c-note. Surely it would have been cheaper to hire a child minder for the evening? Well, as long as the little bastard wasn’t drinking I wasn’t going to fuck with them. I moved over to where their table was and was horrified to see the child knocking back champagne, from the bottle no less. I was about to intervene when I noticed with horror (and morbid fascination), that it wasn’t a kid at all. It was a woman!!! A fully grown (estimated) 3 foot 8 inch woman!!! The odd thing was, she did not have the features usually associated with little people. Big peanut shaped head, stubby little arms and legs. Her body and features were perfectly proportioned to her size. This was a little confusing as she wasn’t bad looking, but was too short for even a stand up blow job. I was fascinated and decided to stick around for a while to observe her habits.

She had a camera and was taking pictures of everyone, probably even me. I would give a fuckin’ fortune to see those pictures. Tons of snaps of peoples mid sections or of faces taken at such a steep angle that you would be able to see right up their nostrils. Priceless.

She was hitting the booze pretty hard, the champagne had been replaced by a bottle of Grey Goose and she was drinking it neat. It was time for a dance….. She was like a Tasmanian devil, a little whirling dervish, darting around the dance floor and humping folks’ legs like she was a Jack Russell. She was a treat to watch, cutting a mean rug and tearing up the floor like nobody’s business. Several big people had to go and sit down after straining their backs trying to get down low and bump and grind with her.

It was inevitable. It had to happen sooner or later. Her tiny system could take no more. The mixture of booze, the dancing, the heat…. I saw her tiny cheeks bulge and watched as she scampered between people’s legs, making a beeline for her table. She reached up, grabbed the ice bucket and puked up her tiny ringpiece. Sadly, I would have to throw her out, house rules. Ironically, I could have literally “thrown” her out, as in picked her up and launched her into the street but unfortunately, here in California, many people have no sense of humour and a lawsuit would no doubt have followed, so instead I politely let the big people she was with know they would have to take her home. They obliged, all apologies and smiles and left.

Closer examination of the ice bucket afterwards revealed perfectly proportioned tiny carrots and what appeared to be straw mushrooms. We couldn’t be sure.

Well done, Eddie! It would have been priceless if you had given her an airborne dispatch though.

The laws around assault and discrimination really do inhibit ones freedom to express ones self effectively in such situations.

Fat Sparrow said...

When I was a little kid, people used to ask my parents if I was a midget, because I was so small. Oh, also because I was reading at college-level by the time I was 4, but really, colleges have dropped their standards, so that doesn't count for much.

"I would give a fuckin’ fortune to see those pictures. Tons of snaps of peoples mid sections or of faces taken at such a steep angle that you would be able to see right up their nostrils. Priceless."

I've seen "Blair Witch," thanks. There's a reason for nostril-hair trimmers, and yes, I'm talking about the girl.

The Mistress said...

I'm disappointed, Eddie, in your lack of imagination.

A resourceful man would have just stood her on a chair for that blow job.

$10,000 for a birthday party!

That is obscene. OBSCENE!

Do these people have to drive near Skid Row to get to their $10,000 party?

That's not to say I wouldn't go if I was asked, mind you. But how does the planning conversation go?
"Let's have a lovely birthday party for Sarah."
"Good idea. Do you think $10,000 would cover it?

FS - Are midget kids smaller than regular sized kids? I thought everything was equal up to a certain point and then they just stopped growing due to impure thoughts and excessive self gratification.

MJ - The thought crossed my mind, and I quickly banished it to the dark and nasty regions. Something not quite right about the whole thing. My 6 year old daughter is taller than she was. I could never date someone that small, going underwear shopping would be quite harrowing. You might save a few bob at Disneyland though....

Sam - I know it is. The cheapest bottle they sell for table service is $300. That is not including the cost of the table for an evening, $200. The $10,000 is a non-refundable deposit, in case no one shows up to spend money at the bar or in case lots of people show, get angry at the prices and trash the joint. Either way, the club always wins.

Mr Waring: Forgive me, but I don't know what "industry" means. Sorry.

Fresh Hell said...

Hey, for $10,000 you could probably get Skid Row to play at a birthday party!

*Humming '18 and Life'*

Old Knudsen said...

Mr the Robber you fool, Industry means the like of Steelworks and Coalmines.

So humping legs is alright in yer club? you could get me in right? and no I wouldn't hump yer leg you nasty wanker.

Hilarious Mr Waring, thanks for a rea laugh out loud moment to start my day

She might have enjoyed being tossed a bit. The circus midgets always did.

Okay, that may have been what happened with me, but....

Keep your eyes close to the ground, I am in need of a midget butler for my country estate. If you ever see another one, send them my way. There's a shiny penny in it for you.

Troika said...

Ten grand? I'll fucking rent the bar and live in it mate.

There's nothing weird about a midget being well proportioned. Midgets are. It's dwarfs that look weird and give the nightmares mate. There's a distinct difference.

Bock - Shake my hand sir! The "industry" is what people who work in movies, tv, radio, music etc say when you ask them what they do for a living. Usually it is the people who hold down low paying or intern positions for the "priviledge" of being able to say they work in the "industry". Technically speaking, anybody whose job it is to answer a telephone at Universal is "in the industry" and will tell anyone who will listen that it is so.

FH - I'd much rather pay them $10,000 not to play....ever again.

Knudsen - I know a certain lady by the name of Arthur who will let you hump her leg, if you like that kind of thing, which I know you do.

Ellie - The pleasure is mine. Thanks for the kind words.

GB - I don't recall seeing anything like that in Dumbo.

FS - I almost went blind....

Milky - I require the standard 10% agents fee with an added 5% if there are any, shall we say, extra services rendered. By the way, welcome to LB. Please sign the waiver...

Troika - I have no doubt that you speak from experience. No further details are necessary. Pictorial evidence on the other hand can be emailed.

Ooops. I was assuming you were talking about porn. I guess we run in different circles, huh?
