A prize for the runner up in a game to make them feel better for not winning anything.
You were a loser on the Price is Right so here is your consulate prize, a very small bike.

This is a sloppy, unkempt place representing the proud Slobs people of Slobovia.
Gawddd, this place is so nasty it must be a Slobovian consulate!
A place where you go if you are desperate to lose time. A place where you go for experiencing red tape in its supreme form. A place where you go if you want to experience administration as it was handled in the 17th century or earlier.
I have too much time today, I guess I'll go to the Italian consulate on Park Avenue.
A place where Romanian people living abroad, go to step on Romanian land. Most of them are looking for an identity, an identity document.
The Romanian consulate in London is a land of great customer services, the only one in the world to have a network of volunteers helping regularly. They have young and smart employees, the best trained security team and the best consuls in the world. Fact!
If you want a taste of Romania, come visit the Romanian consulate!
Wait, you actually can't, unless you have an appointment.
Good luck getting one!
A "Consulation Guest" is someone who is invited to an event, party, concert, etc, but only after the "First Choice Guest" is a no show and, at the last minute, your buddy needs someone to go with them. Basically, you are a second choice...or third...chopped liver...filler...
You will get the "Consulation Guest" offer, most often, the day of the event.
In a backward sort of way, being asked as a Consulation Guest, is a complement. You are asked because you are not a flake, are spontaneous, have decent manners, and versatile wardrobe. Oh, and a reliable car and gas money, because, as Consulation Guest, they expect you to drive..."after all, they invited you!".
Friend: "Hey Becky, wanna go the the (insert name of event here) with me? Jason was going, but he flaked out on me. Oh, and it's tonight."
You: "Dude, I am insultated you're asking me as the Consulation Guest, but I always wanted to see (insert name of superstar here). Sure, I'll go. I suppose I'm driving?"
