Good point efg, I concur wholeheartedly, that particular term isn't used practically (and even theoretically) in any context, only for people outside Kathmandu.

Quite honestly, replying to this thread especially when the content is flagrant is nothing more than feeding a troll, but in order to get our point across, we have no other alternatives.

With that being said  if the original poster even had a minuscule amount of wisdom Kiddo had, his life would've had a meaning. The reason I am saying this is because his intent in this thread was not to initiate a debate, or share humor or for any other worldly reason, but to spread maelvolence, like he always does. I know it is a free website and we all are keyboard happy and how sajha promotes freedom of speech to certain extent and blah blah, but for once as an educated ambassadors to our nation, I believe everyone of us are mature enough to discern between a debateful thread and what the original poster is implying about - to simply play with our emotions so he could laugh at our expense. Long story short, don't get worked up in threads like this and do not promote malice even when it is involuntarily so.

If the original poster were wise, educated, mature and secure enough to start a thread like this, the title should have been something different. Maybe he could have just started a lighthearted thread about our accent which he chose not to. Inserting the term 'paakhey' injects unnecessary and deliberate evil in the thread which he unsuccessfully tried to  camouflage with 'nothing personal' towards the end. And we all know that we could get away with almost everything as long as we insert terms like 'just kidding' and 'In jest'.

Like efg and Kiddo mentioned, the term paakhey doesn't imply a national divide based on geographical location. The term is only devised and used by insecure bunch of idiots who somehow amassed enough wealth and resources and demean individuals who are less fortunate - only as a desparate attempt to voice out their insecurity.
