What is it with desis and indirectness?

Re: What is it with desis and indirectness?

indirectness? how about when they ask seemingly concerned and innocent questions but the intent is to mess with people. The amount of sincere people concerned about me never ceases to amaze me. they go to my folks and say oh he has not com by in a long time, we miss seeing him, when is he coming, so and so's son comes home every year. and my poor parents dont know how to deal with that crap. Even used to tell em oh so and so was askign about you. Its interestign because those so called sincere ppl have not called me, sent me a damn card for my graduation, masters, shadi, loss, kids, house anything, yet they are sincerely concerned. losers.. dont even know why my folks bother to see such ppl or not just set em straight
