Some things about my culture i find hilarious like the old suitcases my mum chucks on my sisters cupboards because nobody else wants them ..

Going round to cousins house at dinner time but not actually eating till 11pm!then coming home around 1am!

Tea every 20mins (Ive started making mine shit on purpose!)

Bata sandals (not sure about the spelling) We have Nike they have bata!

Dad greeting my friends in a longi hahah

Ive just had a right giggle about this with my family.

Post!

Oh I just wanted to know what religion our kids would be.

So, do you speak bengali at home?

How would you say in bengali:

Nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got somethin to say
but nothin comes out when they move their lips;
just a bunch of gibberish
And motherfuckers act like they forgot about Dre

Ah. The lunghi.
During Ramadhan days, my dad used to drive us to school in his lunghi.
...and he's the kind of parent who walks you to your classroom, and stays until you sit in your seat.

Paan.
The bane of my life.

Wanting to butter your toast, only to find that there's curry in the margerine tub.

If you fry anything, you must have it with ketchup or chilli sauce.
Any other dip isn't acceptable.

Shoes taking up all the available floor space in your hallway.

This must be an asian thing - asians staring at other asians.
I always get random asian people staring at me , some like they know me because its that long!

Talking really loud on the phone when calling back home...

mani · 28-04-2009, 14:06

asian taxi drivers are the worst at staring

they just look at every asian going past

and then if its night time they just stare at them regardless of its male or female

they just thinkin hmmmm do in know him/her/them??

mani · 28-04-2009, 14:08

one dips his mcd's fries in mcflurry and swears its delicious
