Nigella Pussycat says: Tell us about utter twats doing remarkably twatty things. Or have you ever done something really twattish to a friend, loved one or pet? In summary: Twats

A bit of context 1st.
A few years ago I worked as a cookie for a catering company. We did the meals for the talent performing at our city's Entertainment Centre. I helped prepare the meals for quite a few famous people and also for the hundreds of local klingons who appeared each week to quaff wine and munch canapes with the glitterati.
One week we served up a meal to an internationally famous band prior to them going onstage. I wouldn't say I liked them but having partaken in a few of their "pub anthems" and the fact that 1 of them had some Aussie roots - we were keen to impress.
After the show the chef, myself (as sous) and even the dishpig were requested to join them in their dressing room.
"This was it" we thought. Slurping cocaine infused Cristal out of the navels of the most expensive escorts that Perth had to offer with some genuine rockstars, eating diamond-encrusted oysters out of the labias of the local supermodel-wannabes & ending up being the chef-de-partaaay to the stars.
We were in!
We went up.
No broken furniture, no drugs, no hookers. Just said band eating our meal of steamed fish, rice and vegies as they sucked down bottles of the local sparkling mineral water.
Mutha-funking, sheet box, pies-taking wonkers!
I read Scar Tissue a few years later and weeped.

and when they failed to live down to your expectations, you were pissed off?
That is indeed twattish.

That's high praise indeed from you.
I do like your appropriation of AB's critical style.
EDIT: I really wish I'd come across "live down to your expectations" as a phrase as I was growing up.

A mate of mine had to throw a box of paper at him to make a point about him smoking pot in a recording studio. I.e. not to do it.

Cooking for and meeting the Dalai Lama was kinda a little bit more spesh.
Only thing was. He wasn't a twat by disappointing me by behaving exactly as I imagined the earthly incarnation of the Bhoddi would behave like.
I still have a lump inside my elbow where he tried to jack me and missed the vein.

18 months of living with an Australian and my favourite phrase I learned off her was "leaving it on the snib" and now I find out this phrase exists?!!
