I understood that reference
Dude. I'm totally letting the quokkas in.
I'm gonna. They can't stop me.
stops you and bans you from the restaurant
Any restaurant that doesn't let me let in the quokkas probably isn't even a place I want to eat. They can't ban me, I ban myself!
They can't
Hmm.
I suppose quokkas are a protected class.
Never heard of our seen one before. Sounds like a name for something in Australia. Is that where this is?
Yep, quokkas are only native to Australia.
I'd a called 'em Chazzwozzers
I mean it just sounds like an Australian word. Super cute creature.
They are very cute and have no fear of humans.
Psst, who wants to let me in.
Why? Are they bad tippers?
That's so rude! What a quokk a shit.
Fuck the police.
Rottnest Island, Western Australia
This place is magic, and so are quokkas.
We have to meet our daily ~~quota~~ quokka
How many can I feasibly let in?
I was thinking I could probably carry 5-6 in my arms and at least 2 in my purse. I'll be getting a booth for me and my friends, tyvm.
Excellent plan!
100% letting the quokkas in a I will be feeding them my leftovers
Kwo-ah-kah?
Kwah-kah
Thank you
Gonna have to fetch them some takeout then
that quokka is fresh from throwing her baby at a predator to escape, she needs a good meal
So, I'm not Australian and, until I recognized the animal, I kept thinking the sign was pronounced Quo-Kah. Had to google how to pronounce it. It's pronounced Qu-ah Khah. Anyone else struggle reading that?
Wikipedia says /ˈkwɒkə/ which I think was your original pronunciation.
Me after stealing all the food off everyone's table while they are distracted by the quokka I let in:
Somebody give me some context. Is it just to avoid having the little creatures associate the place with food, because they smell or is it just a well humored take? Last time I checked, quokkas don't speak.
