desis growing up in middle east and accents/approach

Re: desis growing up in middle east and accents/approach

i was in a falafel mood so made a special request. I had shawarma for lunch that day.

hey it is a plus, but I cant have dubai serve as a surrogate for all of middle east. its not all like dubai, dubai is more of an exception rather than the rule.

I did, that was a post prior to this, which I can dig up for you if you wish, this was a follow up to that. I think I hinted at that at the start of the thread too.

its less of ppl I was hanging out with, it was ppl that was exposed to. such wanna bes are not teh type of crowd I have any intention of hanging with. whther they are in middle east, europe, north america or pakistan.

had I been from cafe, I would be proficient in using rolleyes emoticon. As you cannsee this post is from a few years ago. At that time the people who participated in this forum were a hand ful of people who knew each other well and understood when something was being presented as a serious topic or as tanz o mazah. Indicating using emoticons was not really because the people you were talking to knew what it was. It was the new ppl who really did not show up much, who needed explanation.

and that is the challenge reviving old threads, that moment is gone, so one may not fully understand or appreciate the dynamics present among the people who were in the discussion then.

btw do pull up my thread on desis- urdu-english and the in between stuff, you will see that the target at that time were confused desis living in Pakistan :slight_smile:
