Corniche incident
Yesterday on the corniche, after I had just finished running, I dragged myself to have some rest on the concrete steps behind of Belhamber restaurant (for those who don't know where is that, it is the small building that is constantly being renovated, demolished, refurbished ..etc behind the ugly huge statue of the goat carrying a torch).
Any way, as I was just preparing for few relaxing minutes that I desperately needed after being totally consumed by running, a woman wearing a black tent …oops I mean black veil, shouted at me from a distance saying "please sir, this place is only for ladies" !!! WHAT, I shouted, and in a total state of chock I told her that this is the corniche and it is PUBLIC for everyone, however she told me please leave, other women are coming now, and men are not welcomed….I thought to myself may be they want to have a lesbian orgy or something and need privacy (can't think of any good reason to be honest) and so I moved few meters away to sit away from that trouble maker women. What teased me a lot is that after about 10 minutes I found a man, yes a MAN, riding jet ski and chatting with that woman and they were both laughing and giggling. So the [women] was having a date, and she needed the privacy for that, and not save her alleged "virtuousness". I really felt like kicking her in the water so she can have a more intimate moment with her boyfriend…grrrrr
oh my god...if only the women who harassed me knows the stories that her action generated...and I thought I had the most vivid imagination in the world.. :D
King- no guilt what so ever! I just invoked the superpower of inshalla
so not my fault.
yeah, I'll throw you out with the gut don't worry.
you would be the one who saw the squid coming out of nowhere and prefer to let him eat those guys ... hehehehe do you feel guilty now? Just Kidding :)
the squid swallowed me and hamlet still you going to eat it???

Can I play to? What part do I get? Can I slay the Squid and cook it for dinner?
huh?..frustrated film maker king edshel?....

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat a movie but hey
i never knew we have 2 cam person
jasskat and King lol
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
that and make it a documentry if you want too.
[The beginning, on corniche and you can hear people screaming for unknow reasons, someone is kicking the tree while the other is sleeping on the seat in the name of sports and training, somone is trying to convince his GF to get on the boat in a romantic trip [to drown her later]. Forgetr about all of this and look!! here you see DaRuDe & Hamlet walking toward Orry to drink tea, wearing their shorts and smoking, (Bad Boys)]
Ladies & Gentlemen as we can see here DaRuDe and Hamlet are looking for some trouble, trying to find a spot to sit with those two cups of tea in their hands.
[Woman]: Hey .. What are you two doing here? Can you go away for a while please?
[DaRuDe]: Why is that? We are just drinking tea and having fun watching the water.
[Hamlet]: Where is the problem in that [see, no one said the word Problem]
[Woman]: Nothing .. but let's say that the flying water would fall into your cups of tea and make it salty.
[Hamlet & DaRuDe] Oh yeah, we know what is happening here it is an old story [both are giggling].
[Woman]: What old story? What are you two talking about ? [so surprised]
[DaRuDe]: Well we are not sure, but please we want to have a talk while drinking our tea, so could you ...
[Let the action begins, will that was no action, it was horror]Tragghh Boom , Boof Boof and an unidentified objects are flying, ... and Phewww that was close ..
[King]: Hey woman ... I was just filming ... not my fault to get hit by your flying shoes ... oh my god, wait a minute what the hell was that?
[Sad Music is Playing in the Background] As we witnessed this tragedy here ... the tears are in my eyes and the pain in my heart, the summary is: One big Squid came out of nowhere [maybe was hiding behind Orry, Bad Boy Orry bad, I hate you …] to devour the three victims... Unfortunately, he blinded everyone in the crime scene with a big shot of ink so no one can take his plate number. He does not know anything about dining etiquette rules and starts eating those poor guys with no salt, fork or using spoons. Simply he finishes his meal, burped and said something stupid like: wasssup and went back to the sea!!! We met one of the guys in the crime scene and he was so upset, we will refer to him as [Sweaty_Dude][anyway he went missing by the end of the interview].
[King]: hey Champ ... did u just see what happened there?
[Sweaty_Dude]: Oh yeah man, that was disgusting geez, that freak jumped out of nowhere and did not give the guys any chance.
[King]: So you think that monster surprised them?
[Sweaty_Dude]: you bet King, he was also impolite, I mean he did not say Hi or how are you doing guy? and that makes me really so upset.
[King]: So you believe that those monsters should have some morals?
[Sweaty_Dude]: Absolutely man, sure thing that is my line !!! [his face becomes so red now and ready to blow me and all the people on corniche into pieces].
[King]: Ok man, it was nice talking to you.
[Sweaty_Dude]: The same thing is here King, wish if that thing said something before he ea...
Boom Boof Boof[someone is now having a good swim in the sea], back to our story now guys and sorry for the interruption in between :)
I'm Asking god to help their families and QL enduring the pain of losing them, DaRuDe, Hamelt and .. the Good Girl ... You will live always in our hearts , and we would never forget about … [to the end of this blah blah]
Conclusion:
- Listen to people first before make any decisions.
- Never drink tea behind Orry with QL members.
- Never interview a sweaty dudes.
- Never judge people by their appearance.
- Never trust impolite monsters.
- Never Sit beside the water, only god knows what is waiting there.
- Bad monsters always hide behind Orry.
- Bad things always happened to good people.
- Live and let die.
Hamlet maybe you need some glasses lol
The biggest mistake you did was leaving that place....corniche is a public place after all.... if not the authorities should screen it from being visible to the main road... ha ha ha ....
regards
well now you say that.
I told you hundreds of times my dear that I was 100+ meters away from the woman :DDDD of course I didn't get her eye colour, though I don't think hazel will be unsafe assumption....anyway, prepare your zooming camera and join us :D
am talking about zoomin on female in tent NOT THE MALE :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
ahahhaa- maybe I will need to zoom extra close. I'm sure all those on the Size matters thread would like to know ;)
with her zooming cam to make the movie for us. hope she dont zoom in deep :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
Did you at least get eye color? Height?
oh am sorry dear, just read your message now, and I missed our little adventure yesterday :D..... the problem is how to find the woman with all this tents around :((((, we have to search in the exact location, we can also use the man, cause I sure remember the jet ski....we will caught them red handed this time
Next time I'll be sure to catch it on video. My bad.
ah she that really would have been good.
i would have asked her wait let me make some pose for you :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
maybe she was there to video everything ;) She was in disguise...
Behave ... your sweetheart waiting for you somewhere :D
i already came back now. was there sittin in my car a women in tent driving passed by me when she saw a male is sitting in the car she drove away and parked her car far from me damn damn couldnot even see if she is young or old :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
I'll be there hiding with the cam.
its 5:11am now i am going to corniche for walk. will see what happens you quick come with your cam have to do some recording if any female shouted at us.
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
Loooool that's pretty funny.
She wanted privacy so used your kind heart to move you away :P
Anyway, here's a rule of thumb for visitors. If there is NO sign or no public rule, then it's NOT for women only :P
However, it's nice to be nice and give someone some privacy ^_^
edit:
I also want to mention something for those who complain about women wearing veils and then showing their body off.
yes in some cases it's hypocritical, but the veil is also traditional and fashionable to some, so if they choose to wear it, it may not entirely be religious.
I think people need to stop being so concerned with other people and start thinking about themselves.

gotta go now, thanx for the support guys :)))))
take care
and that is what I did !!!! I sat away from her, left quitly and now I am having fun of it...sound very good for me
Before you act think about, the place, time and the CONSEQUENCES. (just an advice)
OK goodbye everyone- I have to go.
Hamlet please stay away from my area of the Corniche- it is private.
:)
oh my god you make it sound as if I was wild loose beast out there harrasing women :)))) I swear I never flirted any woman in my whole life (to the contrary I was flirted by some bad girls in Egypt in a couple of incidents before :D)
I'd like to see you try- you'd have one angry Qatari family after you hehehehe.
Actually it would be amusing for me to watch!
I do that sometimes and answer in English pretending I don't understand Arabic, but really she got me with surprise, I didn't notice her and was shocked by her demand, I heard a lot about the rudness of local women, but never encountered an incident myself
where tell me i will come there with cops and tell them this is the one who was harassing me in market :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
Well I am off to go jet skiing at the Corniche- please Hamlet don't harass me or I will be forced to call the cops.
:D
you should have pretended that you dont understand arabic man and went in straight even if she shouting and then called the police hmm you had an excuse i donot know arabic :D and watched and heard all what they did LOL

can I join :D
I am just happy you gave her the respect that she would have deserved had she been telling the truth.
Sure something like that would happen in Canada. She would have said please leave and you would have apologized profusely for being in a place that you had every right to be in. If you called her a name people would have been shocked and appalled and gone to her defense.
We don't shout in Canada, we kill with politeness.

Any woman in most countries can claim harassment and it is very easy to believe her, buy her story and feel sympathy towards her right away.
You know, since you are Egyptian, that if a girl screamed in the middle of the street and said "Hey he is after me and..." he will be beaten up by the masses before the police arrives.
So, this woman, in her country, used her power against a man a, but using another (unique) pattern.
Most of all, I am impressed you challenged the weather condition and went out for jogging. I am sure you felt as if you were suffocating
I was talking earlier with my friends about how we need to be cautious of heat stress. But with the start of June, my slogan changes to:
“be ware of humidity chocking while you are walking"..:)
Salam
.... you should know that very well coz you are an arab yourself. a lot of arab women are hypocrites in their feelings and the way they're acting in a crucial situation.
i can understand if a westerner, or some other nationalities that are open to having intamacy before marriage, is complaining.
to tell you honestly, you are just like barking at your own backyard, so to speak.
she is a member here are you sure are you damn sure fine let her come i will take off my cloth and lets see then what she has to say :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
I swear I didn't even come near her, she was far and away, I was even very surprised when I heard her becaause i thought I am all by msyelf at that time
and no she was alone at that time, so I didn't caught her doing anything with that alleged bf of her
she wouldnot have have shouted at you to go she would have just requested you do you have a cam me and my bf want to make love and want it recorded for our life time memory making love on beach under open sky :D LOL
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
.... we only heard the story of hamlet. there are two sides of the coin, so to speak.
we didn't know the whole scenario. maybe, unconsciously, hamlet was prostituting himself towards the lady. sometimes, the way we act is more powerful than the way we speak.
i hope that lady is also a member here, so that she can speak and defend herself also. lol
I remember an incident in which a Moroccan lady hit my car. The police did not come to accident site because she did accept her fault over the telephone. So the police told both of us to take our cars to police station at evening.
I was surprised to see this woman covered in black attire at the station who was wearing an exposing vest and half pants at the time of accident.
Suppose she got the fine reduced.
Maybe she was doing something in his lap and thought you saw them and thats why she reacted the way she did
Of course, she then had to make her get-a-way on her jet ski. Very inconspicuous that way!
Would love to do that...seriously :D
that is not fair :((( I can't be polite while I am depriving people their rights, and if we were in Canada for example she wouldn't have dreamt of doing that, and if she did I know that I will be having nothing to fear when I tell her back off bit***h
Dont worry next time when we go and see her will make a clip of her and then tell her we got a gift for you :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
Don't blame the girl Hamlet, blame the culture that doesn't allow men and women to interact with one another.
"I fight with love and I laugh with rage, you have to live light enough to see the humor and long enough to see some change." Ani Difranco
and who said I did !!!! I was 100+ meter away from her, she could have stripped and jumped in his lap without me noticing :D
Sorry. It sounds like she was quite polite about it. I mean, sucks to be you, but sucks worse to be her! She's got to clear the Corniche just to have a date! Think if the poor things was caught. She'd probably be forced into marriage, or a spinster for life, or worse.
"I fight with love and I laugh with rage, you have to live light enough to see the humor and long enough to see some change." Ani Difranco
I chose the first option, however this doesn't prevent us from making fun of it here in QL :D
Oooh Hamlet gypsy put you in your place!
All this poor girl was trying to get was some lovin', how dare you try to get in HER way...
My jaw was literally dropping as I was reading your post!!!!!! I don't believe that you from all persons would justify such an act of hypocrisy and rudeness :(((( which makes me wonder what happened to you lately, you softened a lot, I miss the naughty you :))))
Hamlet. It is simple. either you get out of my way or choose to be get punished. This is my country and I do as I like. simple:)
I understand your point, but that doesn't give her the right to limit my freedom and prohbit me from practicing a very basic right by using her gender and nationality cards, she knew quite well that she has a strong position and she made use of it, why should I pay the price of her hipocracy...
You Naughty QLers hahaha
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
I'm sorry Hamlet, but I have to look at it from her point of view. Who knows how much trouble she had to go to to arrange to meet the guy there, and she HAS to be covered head to toe so nobody will recognize her, and the Corniche is probably one of the only places that her parents let her go alone. I probably would have acted in a similar way.

If she wanted to meet her boyfriend she didn't have to be such a witch about it.
There are better ways to act towards others!
ohh a full body massage- Hamlet you are one lucky guy. You thought it was bad luck running into this girl but look how your fortune has turned!!
.... just understand her. she was also having a dose of arabs' culture when it comes to meeting/befriending/socializing men.
if arab people could be more open to the concept of 'the opposite sex the opportunity of having an intimate relationship before marriage', then, you won't encounter that incident. i'm sure, she's also suffering from this whole arab concept.
i'm sure you know that coz you are also an arab guy.
it's just a matter of understanding human behaviour and the culture.
Dont worry go for jogging man she will give you a nice massage too and rest will get more exciting and full of pleasure :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
before you go to carffur just make sure you don't go jogging first- you'll need all the energy you can get!
if I need to take a tent for a ride, carffur would be the place to go :D
way blown off when she shouted out out out of here this is female place LOL how could he ask her for ride he was think of having a safe ride back home at that time.and then hamlet got shocked like if some one gave him 1000kw electric shock when he saw her catchin the jetski bf.
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
Darude-
yes, a mouse in the house - or I guess in this case tent.
Hamlet- maybe next time ask her if you can take her for a ride too!
LOL
hmmmm I see this turning into one big orgy :D...I salute your vivid imagination....by the way how do you think she will react if she knows that she became the subject of a chat between QL memebers :D
what do you mean?
are you trying to say there must be a mouse hanging down there LOL
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
make sure to video everything as evidence! Who knows if she is even a she?? If she was wearing a big tent as you say, you never know what could be underneath :)
she will start seducin the cops so that we both get caught :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
lols...I am not sure of the outcome of our little adventure though :D
hi there, how are you today, didn't hear from you for a long time....I think I'll go there tomorrow, I am interested in knowing more about "the woman of the corniche", this time though I am thinking of disguising as another "tented" woman to see her reaction, guess she will tell me then "this is an only animal place, humans are not welcome please stay away" :D
lets go there again today you and me and if she repeated i will call the police and say she was trying to seduce this poor man :D
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
What excuse do you think she would have given if you were a female?? For locals only? I cannot stand such pretentiousness.
yeah and I would become the savage intruder who violated the innoncent family happy gathering........I really can't even understand that such people exist, she is covered from head to toe for god's sake, for me she is just a tent, I didn't even come near that bit****h
Oh these ladies... they think they own this damn place and the expats..How dare she ask someone to move from a public place..and romance with her...
Its really annoying to see such things... You should go and sit in the same place today...and kick her AZZ if she ask you to move..lol Of course if the cops come its will be a differnet story all together.....they will take her side for sure and you will be in trouble...
maybe that boyfriend would become her Brother.
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
You could just kiss your freedom goodbye! Of course if the police arrived after her boyfriend- maybe a different outcome...
the police will take her side.
so keep in mind in ur mobil there is easy access to voice recording just press that button when in such conditions.
[img_assist|nid=21285|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=180]
I am just wondering, if she called the police, what side would have they taken....the local virtuess woman wearing a tent....oops I mean a veil, or the "playboy" from Egypt
if it had been me, I might have snapped! But I'm a girl so it would have been a little different ;) Wonder what excuse she would have given if you had been female sitting there?
the problem wasn't only the heat, I didn't run for over 2 months, and that is what got me so tired to be honest, and then that woman really teased me with her attitude
The heat must have killed you while running in it! Hats off to you for being out there
I didn't say anything, as I was already too tired of running, and I am having enough troubles in my life :)))) however, I would have loved to do so
I would have loved to see you say that to her!!
LOL! You should have gone back and told her: "hey lady your girl friends are late I see! Is this guy bothering you?"
sneaky :)
