Now that Yasser has nothing more to discuss except orifices (a natural considering the family background he comes from where ``you need to take out your head from your rearend`` is a ``common English expression``), I might as well stop this senseless slanging match..LOL!

Harish Mian the Magician

That Harish mian is an incredible trick. How did you manage to put your head as well both feet up your rear orifice. Do you do parties or this nautanki exclusive to chowk?

Unless you think posterior = orifice, you have a problem with your eye sight as well.

No wonder you misunderstood me. For one who is always thinking of orifices, it is quite natural to imagine even a harmless term used to denote the common donkey to be a reference to an orifice.

In any case, problems with eyesight can be resolved easily, but what do we do with someone who has some real problems the stuff between his ears? Where is our resident shrink Shankar when you need him?

Do you think BJKumar, who calls Farzana Versey, an Indian, a whore for disagreeing with him, has any right to tell Dr. Hoodbhoy, a Pakistani, to ``emigrate`` out of his own country?

And did Dr Hoodbhoy emigrate already? No?

If you think he does, then your head is deeper up your rear orifice than previously ascertained.

And if you really actually think Hoodbhoy would emigrate because BJ suggested so, your head is so deep inside your a$$ that it is now actually hanging out of your mouth..LOL!

interesting speech (but what is a commencement speech!). I hope the students facing you understood what you are saying, and what you mean (not that I understand it completely).

Nevertheless, it is something which needed to be said ``truth, diversity, creativity`` yes indeed.

Most nations on earth, who have prgressed a greatdeal have a certain amont of diversity and tolerate it and accept it. Itslike a small pertubation to the system from time to time. Often these pertubations take on a trajectory to a higher equilibria and occasionally not so. Diversity is not an essential requirement at early stages of development, but bnevertheless plays an important role in shaping events.

hhhmmm, interesting article

This is what I wrote:

``Harish mian`s posts are littered with references to his posterior.``

Unless you think posterior = orifice, you have a problem with your eye sight as well.

BTW, my posts are not littered with references to orifices. Just in case, you didn`t know the exact meaning:

Middle English, from Old English assa, probably from Old Irish asan, from Latin asinus

1 : any of several hardy gregarious African or Asian perissodactyl mammals (genus Equus) smaller than the horse and having long ears; especially : an African mammal (E. asinus) that is the ancestor of the donkey

Harish mian, yaar, please have some self control. Even if I ``abused`` you by saying that you need get your big fat head out of your posterior, please look at your own posts.

Funny how Yasser tries to divert the subject when the issue is not one of abuse, but the fact that he had to resort to it when he couldn`t say why Indians shouldn`t comment on Paki issues.

For months now he has been - in the typical Indian fashion- referring to my family members with the choicest words that apparently his family taught him and he is objecting to my very well placed suggestion that ``he needs to take out his head from his rearend``- a common English expression telling the other person to stop attaching unnecessary importance to himself.

The fact that such lingo is ``common`` usage in Yasser`s family, one can easily guess what background he comes from. In any case, I`d be curious to know what Yasser would say to his wife if she started to put on airs. Would he use the same language? I`m sure he will, because it is a ``common English expression``...LOL!

BTW...last I checked Aisha Sarwari did not ask Arundhati Roy or anyone to ``emigrate`` from India.

Refuseniks, nay-sayers and other social activists who swim upstream have as much right to be in the stream as anyone. I might not agree with Hoodbhoy`s views in entirety but I will certainly not accept anyone suggesting that he ``emigrate`` from Pakistan...

Certainly not BJKumar, who on this very website called Farzana Versey a whore for speaking the truth about his half naked fraud... who gave him the right to tender such advice to our refuseniks.

Yaar Ranjit... Harish mian`s posts are littered with references to his posterior but I am the one ``abusing`` him. Harish mian is a funny guy. For months now he has been - in the typical Indian fashion- referring to my family members with the choicest words that apparently his family taught him and he is objecting to my very well placed suggestion that ``he needs to take out his head from his rearend``- a common English expression telling the other person to stop attaching unnecessary importance to himself.

Meanwhile, BJKumar mian asks Dr. Hoodbhoy to ``emigrate`` from Pakistan and I tell him that Hoodbhoy is a Pakistani and therefore has a right to stay and propagate his ideas unfettered in Pakistan, and somehow that is offensive.

My suggestion: Harish mian need pretend to know the English language, if his comprehension is so shaky. It is not the end of the world. More than 3 billion people on this planet don`t speak English. Magar colonial complex ka kiya hoga?

So manto tears apart Dr. Hoodbhoy left and right on a public forum, even on his scientific credentials, but gets all defensive about ``ghar ka maamla`` when you comment on his comments? Hilarious....

Even more hilarious considering the fact that his wife posts negative reports on India almost every other week. Wonder if he`d advise her to stop doing it because it is our ``ghar ka mamla``.

well at least its better to worship the penis of the most powerfull man in the world[bush]
than worshiping a pu*sy of a foriegner[italian]woman[sonia gandhi].


And how does it feel to get bombed just about every other week? I`m sure you must be feeling ``better``.
