the gaudiness and over-the-topness of indian people is awesome/hilarious

i got into a conversation with the guy at indian dhaba yesterday about the best kinds of basmati rice, and he was firmly behind Lal Qilla brand. so i checked out the Lal Qilla website (http://www.lalqilla-rice.com/profile.htm), which is a typical corporate site, except that instead of "biography" they stodgily refer to their company's history as "HEART-RENDING JOURNEY".

I thought I was tempting my dad's heart strength when he found out I was marrying someone of interraciality. imagine the feeling of relief I had when my brother introduced his new honey to my parents: an Indian chick. who's also a socialist. I am expecting to hear of a ventricle blowout momentarily.

The seeds of excellence were sown in the early 1900s when the idea of starting a rice business germinated inside the late S. Amar Singh, with the accent on quality of the highest order and the undying faith and unshakeable confidence of S.Amar Singh it was not long before Lal Quilla stormed to now heights and emerged as the undisputed market leader. Today under the spirited guidance of Mr. S.K. kartar Singh assisted by his brother. Mr. Pritam Singh and son. Mr. Arvinder Pal Singh along own of the best brands in the word Lal 'Quilla' which is synonymous with eh best quality Basmati rice.

what's wrong with a) indian chicks and b) socialists?

this post just took a trip to generalization city! WOOHOO!!!!

 

[xfer]

i will strongly defend the statement that indian culture is gaudy as fuck.

 

[minxnim]

comparative to boring people maybe?

 

[xfer]

not at all. i would challenge you to name a gaudier culture, and if you can't, does that mean everyone in the world except indians are boring? no.

also, BOLLYWOOD movies are both gaudy and BORING AS FUCK.

my grandmother always said russians in america were way gaudier.
either way, i just know way too many non-gaudy indians to agree with you at all.

i disagree with the russian statement tremendously, unless the russians in my neighbourhood are just especially drab.

and the existence of non-gaudy indians does not affect the accuracy of a generalization in the slightest. i know a couple of polacks who don't like pierogis, but i feel comfortable generalizing polacks as pierogi-eating roundfaces.

 

[minxnim]

but i'm saying like, all the indians i know in fact are non-gaudy.

also, just go down to brighton beach.

onion domes and poofy sleeves have nothing on pink-and-gold-lame outfits, hennaed hands, and CHRISTMAS LIGHTS ALL YEAR ROUND!

i dont know any gaudy indians either, which bothers me.

i think xfer is confused by living in a monotheistic society seeped with vegetable tones.

 

[minxnim]

well, i think that's because they're not really like that dude! i know plenty and none are like that.

to me there's nothing wrong with Indian socialist chicks...but when your father is an ultraconservative, 25 year veteran of the United States Army, and he envisions half of his grandchildren being of a rather duskier hue...

well, let's just say he's having to learn to adapt.

i only know a single american with a gun, but i have no problem accepting that america has a pretty active gun culture.

 

[avi]

indian movies are not boring you tard

 

[xfer]

in order to prove avi wrong, im going to break into really long, pointless, jejune song-lyrics-posting every fifth post from now on for the rest of my UM.com career.

 

[minxnim]

it's funny because i am the opposite. i know tons of people with guns but i assume on the large, most americans dont have them and it's really just an overstatement.
