I was inspired by Exel's "You know you're somali when..." thread

[B]1)... everybody is your cousin/uncle/aunt[/B]

2)...you smell like wot/tsebhi

3)...a party/baal starts at two o'clock and you show up three hours later.

4)...your head used to flood in oil/cream when you were a kid

5)...your parents talk extremely loud on the phone

6)...your parents want to call your name but they call all your
siblings first before they finally get it right


7)...at every wedding it looks like all the
women have robbed a jewelry store

8)...your parents say "brazer" instead of "brother" and "worlid" instead of "world"

9)...elders say that they had to walk 20 miles to go to school

10)...Johnny Walker (Red Label), Arequi and Ouzo have a special place in your heart

11)...you were beaten with a wooden spoon (mochos) or a slipper

12)...your parents always watch ETV/EriTV/CNN

13)...your family back home thinks you're rich

post more !
number 1,3,5,6,7,11,12,13 are also common with the somalis
but i was never beaten with a wooden spoon but a slipper and a skipping rope
