Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

u like simpsons so much.. grow up yaar. Instead of stereotyping "middle America", I think it best describes a utopian town. How come one doesn't see many mexicans in the simpsons.. they shud be atleast a fifth or a quarter of the simpsons' characters if it has anything to do with the reality.

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

moin pai, once again i fully agree with you.

danish parjai nu sada salam. does she dig simpsons yet?

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

no yaar.. her angrezi is mashallah.. she speaks with her actions more than words. She doesn't even know bout Simpsons yet. She knows about Bollywood though- kind surprising.

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

yes, but Simpsons still has far too less than the actual #s of latinos you see in any town of the US it seems. I wonder how would be US like when it becomes latino majority- Latino Scientists, Latino engineers and everyone talking in Spanish while making a taco-shaped spaceship at NASA

We had one such guy at work. His name was Mohammad ------ and after 911 he changed his names around to ------ Mohammad and while writing his name on documents he would just write his last initial and not the entire name. blahdy disgrace.

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

Most probably he will strike with a changed name... :D

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

that is why I said 'another version' of Apu, not Apu.

attention to detail man, attention to detail.

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

I have been hassled due to my name during travel, usually nothing too bad. one airline guy told me that someone with a similar name is on the watch list so they have to run my name and birth date etc to clear me for flights.

The guy asked me, why dont you just change your name. and then we both wondered whats worse having the name similar to someone on the watch list or being stopped because I used to have a name similar to someone on teh watch list, that would probably be even more suspicious.

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

It's ok to change the name. You are living among idiots, prevention is better than useless hassle. You have my permission.

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

no man I am fine with my name, the only issue I have with it is when I travel, and officially I would always have the name as an Also kNOwn As (AKA) and the hassles for flights will be the same. so why even bother, I happen to like my name.

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

Let that be job of Latino makers of Simpsons like cartoon, for now if everybody is enjoying it then let them :wave:

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

Queer!!! hi :)

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

Hey I have a question that is sort of related to the topic-at-hand....
So my Dad's name is on the national watch list and last time we were at the airport for a domestic flight they had to run the check on him. So a few weeks ago I was watching TV and they had apparently caught the dude who's name was the same as my Dad's. So does that mean the name is off the national watch list?

Re: Name change - due to insecurity!!

tell uncle khalid sheikh muhammad that he is not quite off the hook yet, by the time info is confirmed and changes made it may be a while. :D

i feel his pain btw, I share my name or parts of my name with some dude on the watch list too. except that sumonnabiza has not been caught yet.

Americans seem unsympathetic. Thirty-nine percent say they harbor at least some prejudice against Muslims, according to a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll earlier this year. The same percentage favor requiring U.S. Muslims — citizens included — to carry special IDs. About a third say U.S. Muslims sympathize with al-Qaeda.

When their countrymen are like this you can hardly blame them for changing their names, and they accuse Muslims of hating the west.

Everyone wants to be accepted, welcomed and loved like normal people... Unfortuantely for us Muslims that just isn't possible anymore no matter how much some of us lick butt.

I've often considered changing my name to a Medditeranean, Sikh or Brahmin one, It's not that I'm ashamed of being Muslim, I'm just tired, real tired and sick...
