Re: # 86

stuka,

........ thanks for your support ........ unfortunately, grandpa gopinathe`s genes have played a cruel trick on me i will have start saving for dowry of a car, a bang olufsen music system and the like, in addition to the bajaj scooter ........

``)...if I were working at a Duane Reade, you`d better hope I was doing whatever I could to not hang myself.....``

Load of crap...Asians work in 7-11s all the time and still remain polite..heck, I used to work at Cumberland Farms where the bul of the clientele was food stamp carrying blacks who were also the biggest shop lifters..yet, we carried on..worked for an honest dollar. So do thousands of other Asian Americans especially from South Asia..

Oh yeah, on the looks, Malik99 and his ``colonial theories`` are a load of bunkum..dunno about Bangladeshi types but amongst us Punjabis fairer is better looking than dark skin...if u are the daddy of a dark skinned girl, better start saving for dowry of a car, a Bang Olufsen music system and the like..fathers of gori daughters can give a Bajaj scooter.

#83 ali: we need someone to sing ``springtime for Hitler`` on chowk too.

#79 It takes a village.....

Another attempt at reforming hamidm: your talk about superior ``pathan genes`` and inferior ``panjabi genes`` is a common pathan conceit that I noticed among some otherwise perfectly sensible pathans. A pathan guy married to a panjabi woman he met in a college in Lahore, now an ageing guy, talks the same way. He told me he was thrilled that his son picked a peshawar girl and not a lahore girl - and was a bit confused when i asked him if he had gone to pick a girl or a bakra. but anyway...

Despite all this talk of genetic superiority, pathan men marry panjabi women in droves and vice versa, and you are merely an example of the product of one such marriage. So what gives? Are pathans men stupid that they let go of their superior genes and blue eyes and white skins to marry plain brown eyed, dark skinned panjabi women? Are pathan women stupid for the same reason?

lot of puzzlement here.. perhaps you know the answer

5 years ago, almost to the date, a wise person had THIS to say about hamidm
some self gloss is in order here: none of you dumbos saw thru the nazi like I did :)

Re: # 79

you are one confused macaca... :)

Re: # 76

Dude - I know it`s hard for you to believe, but I have no fascination for blondes... I like my woman the way I like my coffee - dark and delicious.... not bleached and bland... :)

Where is hamidm anyway?...

Re: # 78

saminasha,

no, but here is what khushal khan khattak said about his love :

there is a boy across the river, whose bum is like a peach
alas i cannot swin

like the great khan, bard was a pervert !

famous ``black`` people who are NOT black .......

it has always seemed rather odd to me that people always say that tiger woods is black - he is not !.......... as far as i am concerned, he is the best thai golfer in the world

.... and neither is tyra banks, halle barry, denzel washington or the grey-eyed harold ford ......... mike tyson ? definitely black ..........

........ look, the sooner you folks get over this confusion, the sooner you can figure out how to improve your gene pool ......... i will be eternally grateful to my father, a punjabi with a `wheatish` complexion and ordinary bania looks inherited from grandpa gopinath, for having the foresight to marry a pashtun with good durrani genes .......... it might not have done much for my intellect, but it certainly has saved me a lot of pain and suffering and allowed me to hold my head up high in public .........not to mention the anguish that other people would have had to suffer from looking at me across the dinner table ..........

......... and i am definitely not saying that all white people are good looking - there are people like prince charles, his sister, his wife and his cousin benny hill ........ but, even at their worst they are better on the eyes than a gaggle of gujjus who have been marrying their first cousins for ten generations

Hamid Sahib,

Were none of Pakistan`s artists influenced by Shakespeare`s Dark Lady of the Sonnets? arguably the muse of his most profound work?


Dark as an Ethiope is high praise coming from the Bard:


``My mistress` eyes are nothing like the sun``


My mistress` eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red than her lips` red:
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damask`d, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak,--yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound;
I grant I never saw a goddess go,
My mistress when she walks, treads on the ground;
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare
As any she belied with false compare.

PPl like blondes B/c they (blondes) are too dumb to know how they are exploited both as women and as objectified sex thing

Re:mohar#73

[... and I have no fascination for blondes... like I said - halley berry beats every white woman hands down... :)......]

Lahoulwilaquat (or a hindu version of that)!! This is like saying that you prefer immigrating to Sri Lanka instead of USA. :-)

Seriouly dude, dont give up on blondes. They are hard to attain but not impossible. ;-)

Most of the serial killers in America have been `white colored` ALSO

Re: # 72

Who said anything on chowk is politically correct?... political correctness and chowk are as far apart as possible...

Re: # 70

And speaking of being an executive and bedding a blonde - I can be brown and still be an executive, just as numerous desis have been... and I have no fascination for blondes... like I said - halley berry beats every white woman hands down... :).... seriously, personally - I have always found desi women much more desirable than any other... in terms of color, beauty and personality... :)

that`s just me... now, you and hamidm go along and get blondes for yourselves...

Why does everything on chowk have to be politically correct ???

Hamidm really has a point here and the way he has tried to explain it ``must`` impress all and sundry... (the comment about looking like gandhiji and talking a niece to bed had me laughing hysterically)...

And the point someone made about all these white people spending billions for a tan... the answer could be: ``the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence``... but the fact remains that when these people go out for a tan, they don`t actually want to come back looking like Kofi Annan or Condoleeza Rice...

Some people may like darker tones of skin - and everybody has a right to opinion - but conduct a survey any day of the week and white will well and truly come out on top.... and for heaven`s sake, white has got nothing to do with our colonial masters (who are, more often than not, pale-dead white), it`s fair skin that we`re talking about... Fair & Lovely does not get you an EU passport, it just gives you a fairer skin...

and coming back to the ``actual`` point of article... the ads are only intended to sell the products and (please) they also don`t have to be politically correct !!!

I don`t like the new Olwell`s ad much but the first ad for Olpers milk (btw Olpers is the ``parent`` milk of Olwell) was awesome... and the sheer `enormity` of the ad (with all the who`s who of Pakistani modelling industry) made me believe that this product must be good... mission accomplished....

and this flesh-flashing and stuff - it`s what the consumers demand and it`s a simple case of meeting their demands

P.S.: I am not white but I ain;t no Kofi Annan either...

P.S.A.: I don`t use Fair & Lovely
