1- Phone calls that you say nothing through except “alo” and “bye”. They’re usually from an angry parent. And if it’s your father, you only get to say “hello”
2- “Aywa ya mama, 7ader, 7ader. La2a tab3an. Ah akeed. La2 msh hansa. Ah. 7ader. Hakallemek. Ok. 7ader. 7ader. 7ader. Bye!” Sounds familiar, huh? Needless to say, her next call is just a couple of minutes away.
3- Also, the infamous “Alo! Ahh ana khalas fel taree2 w odamy 5 da2aye2.” While you are still in bed, getting dressed or even trying to remember that person/thing that you totally forgot about. No, don’t deny it, you did forget.
4- THE ANGRY BEST FRIEND SCREAMING ON THE PHONE, WHINING ABOUT THEIR ENTIRE EXISTENCE FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND YOU’RE JUST SITTING THERE QUESTIONING WHY ARE YOU FRIENDS BUT THEN AGAIN THERE IS NEVER AN ANSWER TO THAT SO YOU JUST WAIT UNTIL THEY CALM DOWN. Or just hang up all of a sudden.
5- Promotional calls are the work of the devil. “Alo masa2 el kheir, momken akhod 5 da2aye2 men wa2t 7adretak?” LA2A MSH MOMKEN. Besides, it’s never really a “5 da2aye2”.
6- We all have that friend that never calls for ages and when he/she does, it’s either because they need a favor, or fi moseeba, literally.
7- And that name that makes flushing your phone down the toilet such a wise decision.
8- The phone rings, you pick up and “Alo! E2feli w hakallemek tany. Bye!” So you basically called to say that you’ll hang up? Ohhkaaay!
9- That one person that you never ever answer their calls and you never call back but they never stop calling. Endless!
