Professors with thick accents make my life difficult.
Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.
A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai
For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."
The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

They make my life fun <3
My beloved Physics prof is South Indian. Imagine the joy.
On an even brighter note, someone shoot me. I'm sure there's people here who have felt the urge to. Go ahead, do it. It can't be worse than the headache I'm having right now.

When that midterm comes, your life won't be so fun. or would it?
Get up, open your closet, get a cup of water and swallow a Tylenol. No need for death threats or suicidal attempts.
