Only in Nepal is being more popular than Only in America, to add some more:

only in nepal do people don't have a straight forward answer when asked "how old are you"; I mean its just a number, no need to explain blah blah blah

only in nepal do people drink animal urine hoping to go to heaven, it should be the other way- straight to hell for doing such filthy stuff

only in nepal TV starts with National Anthem and finishes with National Anthem (i don't know now but used to, you know what's even funnier, in old days they used to make people get up during the begining of movies at theater, one day as a kid I didn't get up and I thought I was so Cool by breaking the rule)

That is so true. I met one nepali guy and asked him how old he was, he was like...hmmmm.. so I asked if he didn't even know his own age. He said he stopped counting after he was 25... What do you say to that!!!!

Here's mine:

Only in Nepal, it is forbidden to wear Leather shoes and Belt in some Temples but not leather purse or jacket.

these are fantastic! i'm loving it!

hurray, you know what's funny is that, in america, it's considered rude to ask how old people are, but they will usually give a straight answer. in nepal, everyone asks, but you usually DON'T get a straight answer!

only in nepal do people risk their lives on the roof to fix a tv antenna

only in nepal can you not hear in class because the hail stones are pounding the tin roof of your school

this one will be a little risque, so prepare yourselves:
only in nepal do people put their hand up their butt for cleaning themselves, but won't even put their mouth on a bottle of water that their friends have used

Confused: "was stated by someone else in similar post, i cant remember the name of the poster but i can remember the quote, so author sorry for using it out here :) "

That was me..I said only in America its cool to say whats up Dog to your friend but very rude to call Bitch to a girl.

Palpali: "oh, and bedrock, they make you stand in the beginning of movies and performances in thailand for the national anthem too. here we only do it at sports competitions! "

Only difference is that, here its voluntary and turely patriotic whereas in Nepal it didn't seem very patriotic (at least in the movie hall)

I love this thread, it is funny as hell and interesting, at least noone is fighting with each other, here i go one more

Only in Nepal guys come home chewing pan parag and think they are masking alchoholic odor from the parents not realizing that the parents heard them tripping in the bathroom and falling through steps (I confess to this one)

I had received this one a while ago:

You may be a Nepali if:
You ask before eating any meat "Is this beef?".
- You try to ignore all other unknown desi's around you.
- Your stove top in your apartment is covered with aluminum foil.
- Your dinner involves spreading newspaper on the living room floor.
- The phrase "When are you going to Nepal" comes into your conversation at least once a day
- You know all the $1.50 theaters in your city.
- You don't know any American outside your work.
- You keep comparing prices at Best Buy for the phone you bought six months ago.
- You smell like a curry.
- You have never asked a girl out. (you might just be plain ugly too).
- There are more that 4 guys living in a 2 bedroom apartment.
- You know your friends salaries!
- You complain about Tribhuwan International Airports on your first vacation to Nepal.
- You've bookmarked immigration web pages in your browser.
- You have been to Mexico or Canada for multiple entry F1 or H1 Visa.

Do you fancy working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics?:

* 29 have been accused of spousal abuse
* 7 have been arrested for fraud
* 19 have been accused of writing bad checks
* 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
* 3 have done time for assault
* 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
* 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
* 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
* 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
* 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year ...


Can you guess which organization this is?

Given up yet?














It's the 535 members of the United States Congress. The same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

Only in Nepal:

Highest level of hospitality and honor to a guest - a poached egg with a cup of tea.
Sprinkle drops of cow urine in their mouth as holy drink.
Clean porch and stairs with cow dung.
Guys use words like "mula" etc. between every two words.
Guys (models/film star-look-alikes) like to hang around in dingy tea shops.
Easy to become a guru, mata, baba etc. with a lil bit of trick and spiritual talk ... then voila! you'll have a line of devotees!... Do something strange...!
Girls introduce their boyfriends as brother or cousin..hehe!
Your friend's mom is your mom, likewise goes for dads, uncles, auntes, brothers, sisters, and grand parents.... except his/her husband and wife!
It's alright to call the guy you have your eye on "dai"!... hooho!
Girls can walk wearing high heels on most crazy streets full of potholes with ... ahem!... almost perfect grace!

more later...
