Re: Desi Fashion/Style Faux Pas:
coolie, its not someone’s physical characteristics that they have no control over, its their lack of sense. No one is asking ppl to dress like they ahve just walked off a fashion runway, but dress properly in a manner that does not make you the object of ridicule..or look like a clown. as far as hygiene habits, that too is ridiculous that people dont figure it out. Maybe its because no one bothered back home, and now no one tells them.
and I do not for a second buy the arguments that oh there are recent immigrants, and dont know or are older ppl set in their ways.
we can make fun of other folks and there faux pas in style and grooming, but then we may need a diff thread for that. please go ahead and start it…i would be just as happy to make fun of ridiculous styles like low hanging pants and boxer shorts showing, grills in the mouth, clothes with tags still attached, and other lameness like that.
