    We all know friends who we're embarrassed to be with when they're baloobas but is it ever the case that that friend is you?

    Yes. But its gotten to the stage where I'm done with it. But old now to be carrying on that way. Time for other adventure in life! And I'm sick of hangovers.

    The Balubas were Congolese tribesmen who murdered Irish United Nations peacekeepers in the 1960s.

    I think they used poisoned blow darts.

    Usually a pejorative term in Ireland for black people.

    Maybe have a shave and put away your baloobas and your friends won't be so embarrassed.

    Just sayin.

    http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Baloobas
    To get Baloobas. Derived from Ireland, where Balooba is a thick eejit.
    To get baloobas or to go baloobas, is a set of behaviour occurring when a person has a consumed a large amount of drink or drugs and behaves wildly, erratically, but all the while having fun

    Rot. Saying someone was balubas means that they're off their head or mental. It means you're acting like a savage or absolute primitive.

    It's not pejorative towards a race, its used when someone is an absolute header or muppet. As the aforementioned Balubas in the Congo acted.

    Yes. I have alienated most of them now.

    When I'm balloobas drunk, I'm an embarrassment. I run off hugging and kissing everyone and talking to all the people and falling over A LOT. I rarely get that drunk though.

    My friends are grand drunks, they're mostly a lot of fun drunk.
