Sleepless in Lahore

*Disclaimer: With this thread I don’t want to offend any Lahore-ites, I was exposed to a specific cross-section of the Lahory society, and in this thread, I talk about them. *

For this past week I was in Lahore, attending a few weddings, my perceptions of Lahore.

  1. “Chivas Regal” is not a whisky rather it flows in the taps of any “High end” Lahory house.
  2. Waking up at 2 pm is nothing bad, a norm rather.
  3. Girls wearing sleeveless and extremely flimsy dresses in weddings are a natural thing.
  4. Ali Zafar,Sonia rizvi, Shahnaz sheikh, Anushay, the girls of the drama “ Rubber band” and “Bus Youhin” and hundreds of other media people look better on the tele rather than in real life.
  5. Lahori’s really know how to enjoy themselves in a “Mehndi”
  6. Last but not least a Lahory girl’s would make it much clearer than her western counterpart that she is interested, that is, if you give her signals.

I had the time of my life. :slight_smile:

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

So lahore is full of booze and loose women?

Sounds great. That's an islamic society I could live with.

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

Can you get Budweiser in Lahore? Its my fave, along with Teachers.

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

I dint say that, all I said was ...
1. I enjoyed myself.
2. Booze are more acceptable than in many parts of the world.
3. Women "that I met" were a bit more forthcoming than I met in London and a few more western cities.

Thats it.

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

You didnt answer my 2 questions?

I wish Pak was a tad more libera, westernized and open a society. I am all for freedom.

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

or is that girls all dressed up left you drooling. leaving you in a daze of awe and a state of wishful thinking:)

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

LBG: well I was just exposed to "Chivas" , there must be a chivas theme in "mehndi's" nowadays in Lahore?

Vroom: you sound like a girl, r u?

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

no,
did you pull?

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

Ah, but what you implied was more. My little Faisal, you are a one man party. If there is fun to be found you will find it, or her, or them, whatever. You are a Rebel without a Cause, or perhaps a Rebel without Pause.

Someday soon you too may be married, at which point adulthood will probably kick in. (it is after all that season, and you are such a catch).Ten years from now you will be admonishing children in the same tones that your parents used on you, and asking yourself when you became a grown up. Enjoy the fun now, wag your finger at authority and behave like the Pakistani-bad-boy you are. You give me hope for all of Pakistan that the Mullahs have not totally banned brash behavior.

How were the clubs in Lahore?

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

Pakora I don't believe your comments about flimsy dresses, I demand you post the evidence ASAP.

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

its about the freedom to do so.

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

Sounds like you are "sleepless" in a very happy kind of way.

By the way, you are right, that Lahore is getting very modern, very fast and in a very unexpected way for a lot of people.

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

but lahore has pretty good arrangements for that kind of sleepless from what i understand, u can even have a nice meal of paya before and go pray for forgiveness right afterwards, and all within the same postal code..

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

OG I returned, because I don’t want to be sly and disappear, I told you I was a maverick, ;)

Well! In the Pakistani society I have seen people who drink like a fish, even more than me, If that’s possible :), they are corrupt, they are dodgy, they are hypocrites, they are thieves,and God is rewarding them, they are doing ten folds better than me, they are getting loads of money.
Which brings me to the conclusion that there is no fairness or logic in life, Life is chaotic, its poor humans trying to find any meaning or order to life? There is NONE.

Re: Sleepless in Lahore

Fraudz when you are with the "Media lot" you get the Payas, seena, and maghaz, without being in "badshahi mosques" postal code.
