hamidum #271 {``he has now started to insult senior citizens .......... obviously he does not understand the power of the aarp ..............``}

Folks,
Now I have done it. I am really worried. I will have the whole gang of Viagra-overdosed Paki octogenarians (hamidm, tahmed, temporal) going crazy all over Chowk. Gentlemen, will you consider an apology?

Hamidum2,
Or are you a Canuckistani and therefore living in SIN?

Hamidum2,
Sir, are you on social security yet? Would putting a contract on you qualify as a patriotic investment?

Hamidumdumdum

You are the one who volunteered to take me ``under your wing.`` I could have deduced that you were a chicken, a crow, or a turkey. So, out of respect for you, I asked you if you were a UKP. Obviously, an eagle you are NOT. :)

Hamid Sahib, You can return Salim Sahib the favor (I hope that you will act your age and spice it up a little).

``obviously he does not understand the power of the aarp ..............``

hahahaha...

aarp membership is no shield for attacks, just ask chacha tahmed.

Re: # 261

haideri:

``We are persians/turks/european. You must be wondering....... Europeans in punjab? ``

Look kauray, if you had stayed in west punjab very soon you would have become a E.U. citizen.

so haideri, when are the talks for E.U. membership starting?

Hamid Sahib,
You are not going to give us that Chinaman first quote again, are you? :)

Pakistanis are basically a European people with an African level of development, Indian looks, Chinese morality, and Middle-eastern temperament. :)

Egypt and Syria both have a pretty robust movie industry. I have yet to see any Egyptian or Syrian movie on DVDs (or CDs of Arab Music) sold in stores on Hall Road or anywhere else in Lahore (don’t know about other cities). In terms of Indian movies, there are more Chabbas (small stalls) all along the streets in commercial areas of Lahore. It is easier to find porn than to find a Farsi or Arabi movie in Lahore. The delusion of Urdu being closer to Arabic Farsi than to Hindi is just amazing.

muqaddam#237:

``I remember even in the early seventies, the commentator narrating the yom-e-Pakistan military parade used words like tan man dhan qualifying the services renederd by the Pakistani soldier. Similarly just some time back I heard a bibi form Punjab(West) praising somebody as a bhala manas. Words like dukh, maa mamata all Sanskrit based are in common use in spoken langauage in Pakistan. So, what is the big fuss about?``

These no doubt sanskrit words were in common use in Pakistan until the partition. If you have a chance to see some of the old black-and-white Pakistani films, you would hear these and similar words spoken by Pakistani actresses. You would also notice that they generally wore sarees and not salwar-kameez, just like Musharraf`s mother. All this has changed so much under an indoctrination process that regarded these local words as alien that the newer generation thinks of it as an ``Indian`` influence.
