I came from land down under, I'm 6 foot 4 and full of muscles.
Hımmm, generally these are too much for lesser mortals so I have a Clark Kent story.
I'm from Cyprus, Girne land of peace and unity. I did nothing special besides breathing religiously, swimming there, cycling here.
Then I had enough of dirty air and muddy beaches, decided to give it a shot in lovely and friendly, highly civilized city of İstanbul.
No, no, not quite like that, first I had been to Bodrum, but it was cold and depressing place to live, I knew, I deserved better than that, I need royal treatment, I needed a masochistically beaten and chewed out in this Geneva like little peaceful city.
I have no regrets, totally satisfied (bitch slapped) in every sense.
I work in my dream job, as a truthful salesman in a little family company named Koç.
I'm generally known as Kerem, but I prefer Apollon, son of a...

You come from a land down under
People like you make us chunder

very poetic of you!!!

Welcome, embargo, to the expat forum in this land of plenty. I work in a restaurant that has no roof. At this hour we only serve bananas. In better times we also have pasta, or rice. Or ricepasta. Just in case you like food.

I felt so flattered, that's very nice of you, if you don't mind I'll bring my pet monkey Assfart, if it enjoys your service,you can bet you'll recieve hell of a good tip from Assfart

Your monkey was already there. The tip was really good.

We don't hand out royal treatment to all and sundry round here you know. We're also very cosy and not at all depressed thank you very much. Fcuk knows where you were..... Welcome

Assfart, my boy, you always deliver, don't you?!

Don't mind my nonsense about the other day, I guess I woke up from the "opposite" side of the bed
At a second glance that's typical of me, thanks for the red carpet and all that...

Embargo,

Welcome to Ist. A quick glance at your avatar and noting that you have a pet monkey, is there something else you might like to share with the community? The Jacko & Bubbles cover has been blown perhaps? Maybe you should change your lead from "I came from the land down under" to say, "Billy Jean"

Welcome again and make the most of your time in Turkey. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

reminds me of the new West Ham United fans Michael Jackson duet being released next week

Motoman thanks for your consideration, I really appreciate that, actually assfart got excited about your suggestion.
He thinks we would be a terrific duo, but I wouldn't be your best Jackson impersonator. Thought of those tight fitting jeans and white jacket...
Well, let's leave them in past, we have enough weirdos around already. I wouldn't dare to challange them!!!

I agree. Tight jeans and white leather, too tacky. May you and assfart could dress in matching mohair boxers, sport coat, followed with the feather boa could be a good look. Original at least. Of course, as we are all friends here, I'm sure some other great fashion ideas will sprout from the great minds here. Ideas o'plenty. Fashion sense; questionable.

We're doing fine being as we're motoman, but remind me these bright ideas of yours later on, by Halloween maybe, we'll definitely give it a shot
No sir, I don't promise about mohair boxers, no way!!!

Welcome Embargo,
BTW, what a horrible avatar!!!
