You must have at least one friend who went to America for only a few weeks but came back with a heavy, not to mention an irksome fake accent. Even Indians who have never been outside the country.
In India everyone’s related or so we act. Even random people on the street, in shops, bus conductors, autowalas you name it they are all called brothers, sisters, uncles, and aunties… Some joint family we are…
We’ve all done it, so don’t you dare deny it! Those few seconds we save waiting for a bus, train, or rickshaw to stop completely brings us all some kind of satisfaction. It doesn’t matter if we almost got into an accident, no problem no sir!
“How far you reached Monica?” “Ma I’m just 5 minutes away..”
You do it I do it. We all do it. The bus stop is not 1 km away it’s always 2-3 minutes away…
Sabzi Kitna Hua? Thees! Pagal hai kya? We’ve all been there. Bargaining is our whole life. We desi’s love to cut down the prices of everything, and will fight tooth and nail to get an extremely good discount for whatever we buy.
