I understood that reference

[–] [email protected] 30 points 3 months ago

Dude. I'm totally letting the quokkas in.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm gonna. They can't stop me.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (3 children)

stops you and bans you from the restaurant

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

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!

What are they going to do, put up a sign that says "don't let in [email protected]"?

Hmm.

I suppose quokkas are a protected class.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 months ago

Psst, who wants to let me in.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago

Why? Are they bad tippers?

This place is magic, and so are quokkas.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

Fuck the police.

We have to meet our daily ~~quota~~ quokka

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

That's so rude! What a quokk a shit.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

How many can I feasibly let in?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Excellent plan!

Gonna have to fetch them some takeout then

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

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?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Wikipedia says /ˈkwɒkə/ which I think was your original pronunciation.

that quokka is fresh from throwing her baby at a predator to escape, she needs a good meal

Me after stealing all the food off everyone's table while they are distracted by the quokka I let in:

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

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.
