Forty Ways To Tell If You're Egyptian

Forty Ways To Tell If You're Egyptian

You say "estubid" and "owet" for "stupid" and "out"

Your Mom hits u with anything that is near her, anything from a shoe to a bowl

Your parents brag about you even if you're bad

You are married to your first cousin

Your family eats koushari with their hands

You own a grocery store or a gas station

You're fat and blame it on your parents, or you're bald

Your taunt asks you when she can dance at your wedding

You smoke as if it were your last day on earth...and you only smoke apple or manga sheesha

You wear more cologne than deodorant

You pronounce "the things" za sings"

You put tahina in and on everything and brag about how healthy it is

You gossip about your own family...with members of your own family

Your aunts and uncles have more than 4 kids

You eat kofta at least 4 times a week

You cook a meal that lasts a week

You pity anyone who is not an Egyptian and think all other
cultures are morally corrupt

You have fruit trees in your backyard and when they are in season you live off of them

You watch the hell out of the Arabic channel

You have billions of cousins

At weddings it takes the bride and groom 4 hours to kiss all the guests and everybody hits their drink with their forks

You "get down" from the car instead of "getting out" of it

You act like you want to pay, but in reality you hate to pay

You have a gold necklace of your name written in Arabic

You own and/or play a tubleh

Your middle name is your father's first name

You never pay the tolls on the highway

You play cards till the break of dawn

Your Mom says things like: put za sings in za sing

You can't have a meal without aish

If you are an Egyptian woman you dye your hair an obviously fake shade of blonde that is nonexistent in nature and swear that it's natural

You feel proud when someone famous or a celebrity has any Arabic blood in them

You teach your American friends Arabic words (mostly bad ones) and get happy when they use them in normal conversations

You have five different foods at your dinner table

If you're a single Egyptian guy, your Mom tries to get u married when you're 12

Your favorite food is warah aneb, but you are embarrassed to tell your friends that you eat leaves for dinner

You get really happy and call the whole family to the room when there is a special or documentary on Egyptians or anything Arabic related on CNN or PBS

You use church as a social ground to meet potential wives/husbands

You have lefa hair...and if you don't, u have curly hair

Your father swears at you with words that effect himself

I hope that was intended as a joke. The things you said are absolutely untrue but I did get a few good laughs......

Wow... I said I did not mean to offend anyone. It was just lighthearted joke.

I didn't think it was out of the limits.

anyway I posted it because some days ago someone asked about it and I remember that the last time it has posted people thought it was a funny... and far from the rotten topics that alot of people focus.

By the way what happened to the search archives? It isn't working. I was looking for this same joke list in there because I had posted it here some months ago, but the search did not work so I had to look for the list in google!

It was me who asked for it, and thanks esposible, I think it's funny and some of it applies to me and I am proud that it does. Anyway, lighten up people, life is full of opportunities to get your panties bunched, so don't waste your energy on stuff that's intended to be a harmless joke.
