After writing the recent post The Truffle Shuffle and straw incident, I was made aware by a friend that her idea of a truffle shuffle was not what I was talking about at all! Now thinking back, I didn't do the best job at all at describing the incident.
On a recent night out,with the friend mentioned above, I re enacted the scene (yes I was drunk). I was trying to explain that I react badly if scary people approach me. Unfortunately my acting skills are not that good and my version of the truffle shuffle turned into erm naughty charade like gestures. But I thought she got it because she knew what scene I meant in the Goonies, regardless of my 'acting' skills. Alas no, she just thought I was trying to say that the 'truffle shuffle' guy was making obscene 'look what I got' gestures at me and no wonder I poked myself in the eye with a straw.
So did you know what I meant by the Truffle Shuffle?

Truffle shuffle in my mind immediately conjured up the image of a wannabe ladies man coming toward you with his 'truffles' all hot and bothered, haha.
ReplyDeleteI read that part for context, so got the gist of what you meant (oddly enough, there were no straws in my mind's rendering). It did not sound like an appealing way to be approached, in any case.
ReplyDeleteI still don't know what a truffle shuffle is...LOL. I thought it was when you got the runs after eating a truffle. No?
ReplyDelete@offended chelle That is what my friend thought too! I am crap at role play! :)
ReplyDelete@Melissa I am glad you understood me, sort of :) The straw was in my drink, was that bit not clear either? I am shit at explaining things :(
@drowsey I give up! no! :(
Drowsey, that was funny!!! :)
ReplyDeleteSpeak English, Claire!
ReplyDelete:)
I demand a recreation of the Truffle Shuffle RIGHT NOW.
ReplyDeleteI want to behold this 'naughty charade'.
@ offended chelle, no encouraging people please :(
ReplyDelete@ MO :( pfft!
@Lord Likely I am sure you would, but I doubt it would be erotic enough for you :)
I knew what you meant. We love the Goonies. My husband does the Truffle Shuffle to make me laugh!
ReplyDelete@beeker Hooray! someone knew what I meant :)
ReplyDeleteI am sure it works for you if you like and/or are married to the person truffle shuffling for you :)

I though it meant … ah, nevermind what I though. How's your eye?
ReplyDelete@.45 hmmm you would twist my words no matter what, your the reason truffle shuffle part two came about!
ReplyDeleteWill you sell me some weed? :D
ReplyDeleteOh, man. This really hurts. I'm OLD! I didn't get it at all! Truffle Shuffle?!?
ReplyDeleteI'm on the wrong planet.
@ Roger, are you implying that I partake in the distribution of illegal substances?
ReplyDelete@ Ferdc, It seems that I am on the wrong planet because more people don't get it than do :(
ReplyDeleteI knew it wasnt just me that read it allll wrong...I have to say to people its a sight to behold having witnessed it first hand ..gulp.... lmao !!!! well I had a look at the truffle shuffle on you tube Claire and the guy that did that to you should not be allowed in bars he could stay behind some no wonder you almost lost your eye dear :S
ReplyDeleteI am highly suspicious of ^^ that commentator. :/
ReplyDeleteI had no idea (and still don't) what the truffle shuffle was. I thought it was just one of your crazy sayings again! (Ha!)
ReplyDeletePS: You know I love ya, but your comment thing drives me nuts - it takes me to 3 different pages before I can finally comment, and then I can't see the original post anymore.
See, Claire, if the definition on the Urban Dictionary site is correct -- and I believe it even cites the film you mentioned -- then I know. Because (as I told you before) I always have to look up stuff in your posts.
ReplyDeleteWell, not this one....
"your the reason truffle shuffle part two came about"
ReplyDeleteYou poked yourself in the eye again?
@ Offended Shell, not to be mistaken for chelle :)
ReplyDeleteI still cant believe you thought what you thought! Even after first hand charade like actions,pffft!
@ Offended Chelle, dont worry it is not an evil clone, its a real non blogger type person! :)
@ Kai you shall have to wait for the real charade version in September, hmm dont annoy me by mentioning technical blogging thingies! meh.
@ Curmy I admire your willingness to learn :)
@.45, No I did not, it was because of your rather rude/dirty comments that real non blogger person formed her own ideas about truffle shuffling and this led to another discussion about the incident and then this post.
Erhm ... no, I didn't but I thought maybe truffle was another British slang for troll or something!
ReplyDeleteHow dare you call what I said a comment! And right after I Stumbled you. Hmmph!
ReplyDelete@Linda I am ashamed of you!
ReplyDelete@.45 ermmm what should of said? sexual banter??
@.45 oh and thankyou, you should be happy I was talking about you :)
ReplyDeleteChunk was cool. I can't remember the name of his buddy that was chained up, do you?
ReplyDelete@Trukin good boy for knowing who chunk is! You get a pat on the head :)
ReplyDeleteYou mean Sloth :)

ReplyDeleteSloth, I knew you would know. Thank You.
heh. I thought you were scolding me. Yes, I'm delighted to be the object of pub talk all the way across the world.
ReplyDelete@trukin you have to work harder than that to get a treat :)
ReplyDelete@.45 No I wasn't scolding you at all, unless you want me to? You really did provide some excellent pub chat, heh :)
"unless you want me to?"
ReplyDeleteI'm flexible.
@ .45
ReplyDelete"I'm flexible."
Now where do I go with that?
There's nowhere to go but down.
ReplyDelete@.45 you first :)
ReplyDeleteI could respond, but I imagine readers being like, "Get a chat room already!" ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm still confused ... and Clair won't let anyone encourage me LOL
ReplyDeleteLOL!!!
ReplyDeleteI am astounded that there are so few people out there who know what the Truffle Shuffle is. It makes me want to post Goonies videos on my blog for my WW.
Data was my favorite though.. "Pinchers of Power, guys! I was saved my my Pinchers of Power!!!" And Mouth.. Dangit Claire, now I'm going to have to dig that out and watch it when I get out of work today, LOL!!
Goonies never say die!
@.45 pfft You bring the worst out in me.
ReplyDelete@Drowsey, my imagery is obviously not working for you, I demand you go onto youtube and search for truffle shuffle :)
@ Asara, Hooray! another sensible person like me! Hey You Guys! :)
"You bring the worst out in me."
ReplyDeleteI bring the worst out in a lot of people.
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!...I saw it on youtube & now I am BLOND! I mean BKIND! I MEAN BLIND! Thanks a LOT Clalire!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI had no clue. But I am laughing my ass off picturing you reenacting the scene from the Goonies. I can't help but wonder if Willy was with you or tucked safely away at home.....??
ReplyDelete@.45 worst is not always a bad thing :)
ReplyDelete@ Olga I hope you now realise how scary the truffle shuffle man was!
@ Petra I am glad I couldn't see it,heh. Willy was at home keeping my bed warm.
