  • You know your Afghan when....

    Your refer to your dad’s friends as Uncle ( kaa kaa Jaan)..
    Your parents say you’re becoming Americanized anytime you get into trouble..
    After a family meal, the women fight to the death over who should wash dishes
    Your parents want you to become a doctor or engineer…
    You use your forehead and eyebrows to point something out…
    Your mother yells at the top of her lungs to call you to dinner even if you’re in the next room..
    You have at least thirty cousins…
    You arrive one or two hours late to a party and think it’s normal!
    You are standing next to the largest suitcases at the Airport..
    You talk for an hour at the front door when leaving someone’s house…
    You say bye 17 times on the phone..
    When your parents meet strangers and talk for a few minutes, you discover they know one of your relatives back home..
    Your parents don’t realize phone connections to foreign countries have improved in the last two decades, and still scream at the top of their lungs when making long distance calls!
    Your mother does everything for you if you are male!
    You do all the housework and cooking if you are female!

    A visa is not a credit card. ...
    Your refer to your dad's friends as Uncle..
    You have an endless supply of food...
    Your parents say you're becoming Americanized anytime you get into trouble..
    You curse at your teachers or strangers in farsi...
    You can spot an afghan a mile away and they have spotted at you because they keep staring...

        U keep telling ur guests to eat more and more , if they refuse to eat U say... You didnt like the food? it didnt taste good? you pretty much make them feel guilty and they keep eating until they r near to lay down on couch or toshaka lol




        Your mom calls all ur sibling's names before she reaches to ur name



        When u were a kid, Your mom used to tell u and drag ur ears not to eat too much in da parties or grab more than one candy.

        You pick up the phone without knowing whos on da other side.. u keep asking about their family and friends And when u find out who he/she is, u start all over again



        nor ba wrosta likum lol


        Oh and you always say.. Black tea or green tea?

          LOL
          what's up with this calling the names of all the kids and relatives before reaching the actual name of the person you're calling?

            with all due respect, isn't this a repost?

            I am no bird, and no nest ensnares me.

            non commercial would cost less if he was in charge himself which he plans on doing. right now it's n herat but soon it will be in qanadahar.
