Assalaamo-3laekum wrwb
1. You know the importance of keeping a cheap Nokia cellphone in your pocket and an expensive smartphone back at home
Your friends admire your courage when you bring your latest iPhone to work. Not to mention how your heart races when two suspicious looking men on a bike come your way. *Quick! Look away!*
____________________________________________________
2. When you are out driving and you have an awkward eye contact with the backseaters of Chingchi
Spectacular Eye to Eye Alert!
Kia karen… Na chahte hue bhi nazren miljaati hain.
____________________________________________________
3. When you have to appreciate the high-level poetry trucks and rickshaws flaunt
Fasla rakhen warna pyar ho jayega.
____________________________________________________
4. When you have to accept the fact that it will rain everywhere but not in Karachi
People constantly update their status, tweet and make international calls to make sure EVERYONE knows that it is NOT raining in Karachi.
But when it finally rains for two minutes, everybody goes, ‘whattay an awesome mausam.’
____________________________________________________
6. When nobody knows if it is a ‘hartaal or an ‘aam tateel’
Who cares. You are gleeful to have a day off on a weekday.
____________________________________________________
7. You will never know if Na Maloom Afraad are real or a part of an urban myth
It’s just the name of the movie, dude. Nothing else.
____________________________________________________
8. When everything you do is set around a carefully planned ‘load-shedding’ schedule
Although you have a very nice excuse when you are late to work/class:
____________________________________________________
9. When the freshly painted walls of your house become some random Amil Baba’s telephone directory
These babas claim to hook you up, get you a job, make you thin, fat, hot and beautiful. Pure magic.
____________________________________________________
10. You are used to people spitting paan all over the roads and sometimes on your feet
At signal, when somebody sticks their neck out of the window, expect only one thing.
____________________________________________________
11. When there is an unfathomable amount of ‘kachra’ underneath ‘No Garbage’ sign
You happily toss a wrapper too.
____________________________________________________
12. When you are stuck in a traffic and a donkey sticks its head inside your window
Sure, donkey.
____________________________________________________
13. Or when the whole road gets blocked because of an awesome but very slow group of cows decide to take a walk
But still, Karachi is Karachi. We can’t help but love it.
