You know you're from Karachi when...

Re: You know you’re from Karachi when…

^ Well then, I guess I can’t relate to it much. :halo:
Let’s see…

  1. I don’t know the difference between Taftaan and Sheermal. I know what Sheermal is, but I have never heard of Taftaan.

  2. I don’t recall eating more than parathay, rusks, or toasts as breakfast. They were never available all at once. :stuck_out_tongue:

  3. I never really thought about my urdu/english vocabulary or accent. Never had a problem with it.

  4. I don’t recall using words like daayen baayen.. May be I wasn’t old enough.

  5. Again, I never had to ask for directions due to young age.

  6. I don’t know what this has to do with the original post.

P.S. I am from Karachi, I was born there.

:omg:
You kids are fighting for jokes ? ? ? ? These rules apply to all big cities of Pakistan, as far as I pointed out one thing … I was the first person who read it & smelled something wrong, didnt know that we have no shortage of pea brains, sorry my mistake. Carry on.

Re: You know you're from Karachi when...

*Guys, why are you giving it an ethnic touch. I don't see any harm being done by Ask 99. It was all merely a statement of facts and nothing else. I don't think it was meant to put down Karachiites. Why reply with statements that reek of ethnocentrist mindset. *

Relax guppies!!!

Re: You know you're from Karachi when...

Very well said Ms Khan, if I buy your statement in which you articulated that you don’t see any harm done by Ask99 here. I hope not to mistaken if I take it like, you have accused other posters (including myself ) for acting as a sheaf of racist people. Am I rightly saying it? Is it ten four?

*I know you guys are having some holidays feast in Karachi thesedays but pardon me for telling you that I had no roman holiday in my mind while making replies on this very much insolent and ungracious thread. *

If it was a joke , I don’t think so , should have been posted where it belongs read : jokes forum or ‘ phuchi wahen pay khaak jahan ka khameer tah’].

*Instead of that some one from your highly respected MODs team told me that I m a person with less functional cerebellum . Hello ? *

If I have done it to any on here , I must have pocketed some warning points by now . But here the other fair-haired party is not eleemosynary enough to even offer an apology!

Lets us not bring other karachiites in and I talk about myself , have you or any one else has ever seen me making , creating or copy pasting threads about any specific person , color , creed and religion ?

On other hand if you go to other forums read : video gallery ] , you will be very pleased to find people even making funny videos about me or my crowd . I always take these frivolous acts as jokes and I have never objected on any thing so far.

*But this lady Ask99 is doing it for long now. Couple of Weeks ago , our Karachi korner thread in café was reviewed as an attempt to Bronx cheer all other ethnic groups and cities of Pakistan . Not very true my lord , as it was just nothing more then a cherishing attempt in name of our good old memories . *

So Ms khan , how come some one else doings are marked as joke and mine were statement that reek of ethnocentrist mindset?

Re: You know you're from Karachi when...

correction, opinion.

Re: You know you're from Karachi when...

shouldn't this apply to all pakis?

Re: You know you’re from Karachi when…

See, lahore ke thread mein itni khushi khushi se sabh mazaQ kar rahay hain…
idhar karachi ke thread mein larai :hehe:

Re: You know you're from Karachi when...

^ abb larayee hogi sahee :D

sara gandi bachi shousha zaroor chourna thaa? :p

Re: You know you're from Karachi when...

well there is a reason , sara ! a very compact reason .

As aisha herself is from lahore, so she can take micky outta her crowd and people will take it as a jest or joke .

would it be same nice and funny thread if a karachiite has made it ?

I dont think so ! it would be a different ball game then !

Re: You know you’re from Karachi when…

the thing is I didn’t take it as an insult, I just enjoyed the comments OR **opinions **posted there because most of what was written was interesting and didn’t reflect any personal bias whatsoever. I don’t understand why you people take offence at such things… :rolleyes:

Re: You know you’re from Karachi when…

:khumar::khumar::khumar:

Re: You know you're from Karachi when...

exactly , so were mine :) therefore , I , either don’t understand why my comments were comings of a person with less functional cerebellum . Did I copied them for some stupefied website , no I didn’t .

let me check my law books and tell you exactly according to which clause and proviso , i do stand a chance of getting a written apology !

Re: You know you’re from Karachi when…

Najim is now happy, he said his reply was joke, so no worries anymore… we also took his reply as a joke… and we are happy…

**Aliysih **has just added comments OR **opinions **which is interesting and didn’t reflect any personal bias whatsoever. I also don’t understand why people are taking it offensive when it comes to difficult in understanding the joke!

No wonder Anwar Maqsood is so difficult to understand by the majority of the nation, so we still need Rangeela to laugh for that majority! …

Re: You know you’re from Karachi when…

let’s analyze:

If you are not from Karachi, chances are you did not even know about Sheermaal a decade and a half ago, let alone differentiating the two… :slight_smile:

what was so offensive about that for Najim? I agree with him, we do have some pea brains in this forum… If he was the first one to smell something wrong in the first post, he must be suffereing from disorder of cerebellum functionality (If he can accuse a user here for it, he can be accussed of the same, that is if there is justice on this site… dun take it to heart Najim :hugz: )

that is an opinion and those who are asking for respecting the otherwise biased opinions here should be less hypocrite and understand this opinion as well… Or stop looking at Monitor Sakreen :slight_smile:

which is true… no one in karachi use “sajjay khabbaY” for it is punjabi and is perfectly fine to use where Punjabi is spoken… I do not see any disprespect for the language… mirchaiN kiss baat kee lagee theeN phir? dun you use sajjaY khabbaY words when talking in punjabi, Najim bhai? You would not find a Karachiite using those words or please, prove us wrong!

LOL!.. I have a friend from Gujranwala and he says like that:omg:
