I have this uncle from the maulana side of the family that I call Red Beard cause he dyed his beard and what little hair he has left red.
Anyhow he has a reputation of being crazy and I thought he was too until I got to know him. He's definitely crazy alright but in a very sneaky mischievous way. Oh he's waay too cool!
My maulvi relatives especially the older parents are really uptight and arrogant and feel the need to lecture everyone and condemn them to hell.. Red Beard is so funny he will go around lecturing all of them to the point they can't stand it anymore! Basically he does what they love to do just to intentionally annoy them and get them to shut the hell up!
One time he took their car that by chance his own son had parked outside the house and parked it in some other neighborhood.
Man, he had all three families and their older kids looking all over the place for the car thinking somebody stole it! lol Even with his own son freaking out he let them all panic all day.
I'm not gonna say exactly what I do to deal with my annoying relatives but lets just say sometimes its fun to bring out the 'best' in people.
If they love to complain ..give them more reasons to complain, they wanna gossip and get you in trouble for nothing give em plenty to talk about.. you know people who go around making other people's lives hell usually do get what's coming to them eventually.
Luckly most of my relatives are really nice though.
i love them to bits, theyre so sweet and sincere
