SyedAhmed #7 True. But then - Jinnah was a genuine gujjubania. I dont have a problem with the genuine articles. God bless them all.

This chowk gujjubania is, per his own bragging, a fake even as a gujjubania. And I wont comment on characters like soundmeister who can take a perfectly innocent, good natured article like this one and start quarelling. Even our urstruly - much as i disagree with him on many things - has a real sense of humor as his post below demonstrates.

Yes sir - you are welcome to keep all these characters - the gujjus alias shamsuls and the soundmeisters, on your side of the border.

soundmeister #5 but then...despite all our problems, things could be worse in pakistan - we could be Indians. Having to share the same country as specimen like shamsul (who is gujjubania masquerading as a pakistani).




Thats very crass ...... when you owe the very existence of your country to a gujjubania name Jinnah :)

It amazes me that each and every Pakistani you meet absolves himself of any reponsibility for the state his country is in....

Very funny article. I like the idea of electocuting all bovine ones in Pakistan by electrifying roads. I wonder what hamidm has to say in response to urstruly`s allegation concerning him.

Perhaps we should have a National Problem Day (NPSD) in Pakistan. It would be a national holiday. Instead of decrying our national problems, we would CELEBRATE them. For example:

1. There would be fancy dress parties, with halva served as the main course, and with individuals putting on false beards and giving out loud burps.

2. We would have a parade, with various types of problems proudly marching past: the beggars contingent, the corrupt bureaucrat contingent, the ambitious generals` contingent, the loan defaulters` contingent, the terrorists contingent, the 14th century men contingent, the unemployed youth contingent, the illiterate girls contingent, the conspiracy theorists contingent, the nuclear proliferators` contingent, and so on.
Each contingent would proudly carry a banner, and be accompanied by drums and pipes.

3. The President would make a National Problem Day speech, declare himself to be as problematic as anyone else in the country, and challenge the nation to create bigger problems for the following year.

4. Prayers would be held across the country, thanking God for gracing Pakistanis with so many problems.
