Apparently, everyone these days seems to be too concerned with all the crazy stuff Egyptians do or weird characteristics they have in common. This time, I’ve decided to compile a slightly different list to challenge those perceptions and show that “Masr lesa b kheir”.
This one is for all the Egyptians who did not get affected by the weird habits around them:
I’m a proud Egyptian and I don’t:
1- Have weird eyebrows
Believe it or not, but there are still some girls out there with normal eyebrows!
2- Have a relationship with my car’s Kalax
What’s wrong with Egyptians and Klaxon anyway? If there’s traffic, how can the noisy horn help? Mesh hanteer ya3ni!
3- Call everyone “bashmohandes” and “doctor”
What about addressing them with their names? Or simply skip this part and get straight to the subject.
4- Show off my engagement ring
There are still normal girls who get engaged and keep it to themselves. Thank God!
5- Wear Crocs everywhere
They’re still “shabasheb” at the end of the day.
6- Type “hhhhhh”
Well, just don’t! It sounds weird!
7- Pee in the street
Please stop it! Som3etna b2et wehesha awi. And those poor trees have had enough already.
8- Place my phone inside the veil
As usual, we love to create multi purposes for most of our gadgets, hijab included.
9- Post “la2an el 7alal agmal sa antazer” on social media
Although the post is funny but we can’t deny that it slightly reflects a bit of “7erman“.
10- Grow my pinky finger nail extra long
At first, I thought 3am Darweesh the driver was the only one who does that, but apparently, there are too many of 3am Darweesh out there.
11- Drink shai “Dr Ming” lel takhsees
Obviously, Egyptians love wasting their money on useless stuff. Every time, they realize it’s a fraud, and yet, they never learn!
12- Stop the whole street to take a picture/video of the accident
Well, if you’re going to stop your car, it had better be to offer your help rather than document the accident.
13- Msh bafty 3al fady wel malyan
Finally, I’m glad to know that there are still some people who are not ashamed to say “I don’t know”.
