Hummer - you know you're Lebanese when .. (part 1)?

you know you're Lebanese when .. (part 1)?

Some items might be exaggerating but it is also so true sometimes!! - You use your forehead and eyebrows to point something out. - You get plastic surgery at least once in your lifetime. - You are so "class" while everyone else is "nawar" (meaning rude). - You won't drive anything that's not a Mercedes, BMW, or Hummer. - You could always use another pair of sunglasses. - You constantly mix Arabic, French, and English when speaking. - You think you are better than everyone just because you are Lebanese. - You say you hate all Khaleejis but you'll probably go work in Saudi Arabia or Dubai. - Syrians are the butt of all jokes. - Your family "owns" at least one Sri Lankan servant. - You have about 40 cousins. - You have at least one relative named George,Ali, Elie,Ahmad, Tony, or Hussein. - All your aunts want to hook you up with a guy/girl they know. - You are constantly talking about the latest Hayfa Wehbe news. - You bought your driver's license. - You don't have a job but you upgrade your cell phone every month. - You only buy something if it is expensive enough, because the higher the price the better the quality, right? - You dress like you're going clubbing all day every day, probably because you do. - Your aunt is always asking when she can belly dance at your wedding. - When you arrive at an airport you find like 20 relatives waiting to greet you. - You always curse Lebanese people when you are in Lebanon, but when you live abroad you only make Lebanese friends. - The men always fight over who pays the dinner bill. - You have to keep explaining to Westerns that Beirut is not just a drinking game. - Your extended family is over your house all the time, discussing the latest family drama. - There is no such thing as quiet time. - At least one conversation a day is about being Lebanese. - You use your mobile phone only to make missed calls or to receive missed call. - You judge artists and singers based on their political view only. - You hug and kiss relatives you have never seen before in your life. - You are very outgoing and open to other cultures. - At parties there's always enough food for an entire army and you have to taste everything and finish your plate or your mom will say " harram"! -You are always late. - "Yalla" is part of your everyday vocabulary. - You are always right! -You believe that you are not only perfect ...you are Lebanese too!

- You live in the trashy western suburbs of Sydney like Granville, Auburn, Bankstown and Punchbowl and you're proud of it. - Even you call khubz "Lebanese bread" because that's the non-Arabs call it that, and you're proud of it. - At least one of your cousins or their friend has been in prison. You're not afraid to be in prison because one of your cousins will know someone in there. Also, "the station" means the police station, not a train station. - You've said "back in my country" when saying how much better Lebanon is, but still refuse to live outside of Sydney. - Fighting is considered a hobby, but you convince yourself that they really started it, even if they're just quietly reading a book on a train. - You don't get robbed even through your non-Arab/non-Pacific Islander friends around you do, because the robbers are also Lebanese. - You're sick of people judging you based on what other Lebanese people do, even though you've never started any trouble yourself. - You can find other lebs just by hearing them, even if there's only 5 of them in a room of 30 people. - You've called someone a zhahash even though they don't know what it means, and you've said aidifik enough times at school that the white kids start using it when they're frustrated. - You point out that you're not "like them", by quietly adding that you're a christian. - You don't consider yourself an Arab, even though you don't speak Phoenecian and your slightly lighter skin colour doesn't differentiate you from the others. Alternatively, you're sick of maronites thinking they're better by thinking they're French rather than the Arabs that they really are. - You go to the beach but don't swim - "Sick" is a normal way of calling something good. - You consider Lebs, Italians Greeks as part of one collective people. - Your Turkish friends are annoyed that you get along great with Greeks and your Greek friends are annoyed that you get along great with Turks. Both are annoyed that you can date the girls of either group whereas they can't. - You'd rather have a $1,000 car with $9,000 worth of modifications rather than a $10,000 car with no modifications. - You prefer to pay in cash. - People do business with you because you ask them "do you want a receipt and pay tax, or no receipt with no tax?" - You never need to pay for a mechanic because one of your cousins or your friends works as one.
sisyphus has it spot on, i've emailed it to all my cousins out west
