Fat Tuesday
Students came to sing and demand pittance from me on this, the day of Fat Tuesday. So I locked my trasnparent glass door and went under my desk with my lap top. After three minutes of "We can see you Mr. Vebra!" "Come out come out wherever you are!" "We know you're in there!" I couldn't stop laughing anyway, so I came out and had a goofy conversation through the door, then agreed to open the door, and agreed to come to the burning of the winter bitch today at 11:40. Pittance if usually candy or change or something. I gave them all I had, a half eaten cup cake :p

To my loyal butler, you there, for his years of loyal service, i leave a pittance. To be paid in 20 equal installments of 1/20th of a pittance. If you tried to give me a half eaten cupcake as a pittance, i would have demanded you go to the store, and get me some real pittance. While you were out buying said pittance, i would steal your computer and use the files located there to steal your identity. I would then, posing as you, sell you to a rich gay arab as his sex slave. then maybe you'd learn your lesson about not having proper pittance on fat tuesday
oh man that would suck. i'm glad you, Loky, we'ren't in the crowd!
i'm not clicking it this time.
however, i'ven't heard of this pittance custom. care to explain?
dariau, užgavienės is that last day before pasnikas. pasnikas is the time of very moderate eating, so the day before it begins you gotta pig out (like a bachelor/ette party). in days of yore, youths would go around singing songs about how people should give them blynai; for some reasons pancakes are the fat tuesday food in lithuania. now people still eat pancakes especially on that day, but they don't go around begging for them anymore. now they beg for sweets and money. and they won't stop bothering you until you cough it up. i guess that's panhandling, but it's funny.
in germany it's called faschung, or something like that, and there they got parades of grotesquely masked characters on floats giving away candy and hot wine. and i seen this one bitch...this kid bent down to pick up a piece of candy, and this bitch fuckin steps on his hand! like she fuckin stopmed on it, the kid was crying!!! meanwhile, she pockets the candy herself. christ, i bitched that cunt out somethin rotten in english, german, lithuanian, and russian.
