your family goes on a picnic every sunday (and hides so they don't have to share food with anyone else and you sit on carpets on the grass)
your parents try to hook you up with your cousins lol
your freezer is filled with nothing but gosht and naan khuchk
you drink tea 24/7
your parents call food basics.."basic food" and burger king..."king burger"
your friends call and your parents make up the stupidest excuses...you're sleeping,..washroom...show
er...eating...etc...meanwh
ile your sitting right beside them (thank god for cell phones)
your parents want to call you they will say everyone of your 50 brothers and sisters names before they get to your name.
your going shopping with your parents, and you see something you want your parents complain and say how when you go home they can make it for you.
you spend so much money on a nice dining room table but you never eat on it
you wear a t-shirt under a revealing dress at weddings
your? 30 year old man and you go on afghan websites looking for a wife... we know you're out there!
when theres more oil in your food than actual food
when u thougth tell the age of six, ur name was padaurnaulat czu dats the only thing ur mom called u .. oh wait maybe its just me
every elder you meet you refer to them as Kaka or Khala ( aunt or uncle) and they have the right 2 beat u up if they wanted to (thanks to farouqa)
You know your afghan when: (TRUE AFGHANS WILL GET ALL OF THESE LOL)
Your parents hate the Russians
At least once a week your mom says, "The good old days in
Afghanistan."
Your parents were the richest most respected people "back home"
Your parent's always refuse to buy so called "luxury items "
because of the poverty "back home" *Your parents worry what other
people will think if you're not going to be a doctor, lawyer, or
engineer
Your parents drink 6 cups of tea a day
Your parents had eight daughters in hopes of having a son(most
families) *Your parents compare you to all of their friends' kids
Newly arrived afghan guys always become more Americanized than
those brought up in America *Most afghan guys have illusions of
being black
The second you pull out of someone's driveway, your parents start
crap talking about them *Two or more afghan men will always talk
politics with each other *(For afghan chics) Your brother had no
curfew while you had to be home by 6pm
Your parents call all your friends "Bachem" whether they are Afghan
or not
If you aren't married and you turn 25, your parents start wringing
their hands and proclaim that it's too late
You have never met half of your extended family
Most afghan guys have illusions that an afghan girl wants to marry
him as soon as he catches her so much as glance his way in an afghan
party
To be considered good, an afghan girl sits quietly all night long,
staring at her hands resting in her lap
An afghan girl is bad if she laughs out loud at an afghan party or
walks around too much at other ppls partys
A wedding was either good or bad depending on the food n who danced
You haven't really had dinner unless you've had rice. *You flip out
when someone mistakes you for an Arab, Hispanic or Indian
you curse at your teachers or strangers in Farsi
you hate jews
Talk crap and gossip about your own family
You cuss at your kids in Afghan with phrases that affect yourself
You teach your American friends bad Afghan words and get happy when
they use them in normal conversations
Your family watches Bollywood movies all day long
You refer to your dad's friends as Uncle or Kaka (names goes here)
You have an endless supply of pistachios, dates/khurmaas, and
pumpkin seeds
Your parents say you're becoming Americanized anytime you get into
trouble
You can spot a Afghan a mile away and they have spotted you because
they keep staring
After a family meal, the women fight to death over who should wash
the dishes while the men sit on their asses and discuss politics n r
waiting for their chai
Your mother yells at the top of her lungs to call you to eat food
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 uncles 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

LOL true not true????
