They finger print you.
I cannot believe it!
by Ali P. on Thu Apr 24, 2008 12:57 PM CDTYou mean she was lying?
I can forgive 1-11, but how could she use sweet Maamaanbozorg as a way of ditching me!! Now THAT's mean! I went home and prayed for her Maamaanbozorg...bless her heart.
You Know You are Iranian
by The Real Nader Vanaki (not verified) on Thu Apr 24, 2008 12:04 PM CDTEversince 9/11 you think your phone is being tapped.
funny. Please keep it up.
by n.zanincanadai on Thu Apr 24, 2008 08:49 PM CDTfunny. Please keep it up.
I had to end it; she was falling in love with me, big time.
by Rosie T. on Thu Apr 24, 2008 10:35 AM CDTI know that one, I know it very well. You have to make a separate category for it. It isn't a lie.
At least not in my experience. As a "khareji".
Come to think of it, here's one: You know you are an Iranian when you have lived in the United States since the Revolution and you still call Americans foreigners when you are amongst your hamvatans, even though your English is now better than your Persian.
Was that too long? Sorry.
Don't listen to canadai. She's filled with endorphins these days and she's not thinking straight. Keep 'em rolling, Hassan. Keep 'em rolling.
Cranky..!
by Reza P. (not verified) on Thu Apr 24, 2008 10:00 AM CDTDid 1-11 apply to you, n.zanincanadai?
LOL...
You know you're Iranian
by n.zanincanadai on Thu Apr 24, 2008 09:55 AM CDTYou know you're Iranian when you just can't let go! Maybe give us a week between these Iranian blogs so we can miss them??? :)
