DD Sir!! Hilarious and very contextual, conceptual and all those -ous
and -uals :D!! You hit the hot with the hottest!!:D  Zis sheet xis
funxyy!!



However, I still do not understand the motive behind these violent
outbursts of profanity, dismembering and sexual innuendo regarding the
thread issue and the creator of this thread. The creator has given us
10 plus 1 benefits. And all the true patriots have started bashing the
thread and the supporters alike.



Lets discuss the points, shall we?



1. Nuclear power in the 4th largest economy. Hmmm.. No, we do not need
that. Why do we need nuclear power. We are already a peace
zone..whatchamacallit..."shanti kshetra". Nobody can attack or invade
us militarily anyways (or that is what I would like to think). And 4th
largest economy! We have been living under depravity and utter
recession and depression for so long, that prosperity seems a far
fetched and unattainable quest, or more so, given the present
happenstances, we are not interested in prosperity and development. Who
has time to do all that peace crap and development, when you can make a
day worth attending a "julus" and maybe a lifetime earning if you "buy"
a seat in parliament or in any government office or even customs at
TIA. So, why would you want to be a part of a 4th largest economy and
lose your identity rather than being the way you are, and intact your
pride and patriotism. Duhh!!!



2.Bollywood. Who gives a crap about bollywood anyways! :D Sachin, who?
Amitabh, he is old anways.  Prashant is not Nepali, to start with. But
funnily, I remember most of the dialogues of Sholay verbatim, and know
that Sachin is the best batsman in the world, but I never heard of Dev
Narayan Chaudhary ( I am worried I got his name right) that he was or
is a star althelete in Nepal. I have vague memories of Rajesh Hamal
singing "aaudai jaadai garnu hai sab lai ram ram" but I think some
Indian singer sang the song. Not sure though! Point being, Bollywood is
more popular in Nepal than Kollywood itself, and Indian players get
more recognition than our Nepalese sportsmen. Prashant who??



3. I have seen plethora of Nepalese-Indian restaurants in the US. Only
a handfuls have authentic Nepalese cuisine. So, rest of them have
Indian before Nepalese written in their boards and menus. I was in this
Nepalese restaurant in Seattle few weeks ago, run by a Bhutanese Nepali
lady. I got the best service than I have got in any Nepalese
restaurants in the US; food was mediocre, but I felt very comfortable
with the service and I overlooked the fact that only 10 percent of the
food was Nepalese, and funny enough, the name was Himalayan Taste. Now,
you do the maths. Her business was booming, and everybody had but only
good words for the place. And I was in this Nepalese restaurant in
Madison, excited to be in an authentic cuisine restaurant. Too bad they
were closed because of Christmas, and I secretly felt glad they were
closed because the curb appeal was next to none, and it didnot seem
like a great place. But all I hear about the place is only wow. So, no
hard feelings there, but it would be more nice if they did a better job
at attracting even Nepalese customers. I wonder if it is just the food
that drew all those wows or an obligatory lauding just because it is
our authentic cuisine. Just naming Everest or Sagarmatha and hanging a
couple of oil paintings of Nepal won't make it a great place.



4. Flying into Nepal from anywhere in the world, especially from The EU
and the US is a nightmare in itself, either it is through Delhi or
Kathmandu. So, why not we save 400 bucks flying into Nepal through
Delhi without any passport issues or visa problems. We are getting the
same treatment and problems in Kathmandu anyways. At least we won't
feel betrayed for being exploited by our own people rather than those
bloody Indians who we already hate. Agree? No? Man...I cannot reason
with you then. :D



5. A couple of weeks ago, one white couple, happy with my cheerful
disposition and great conversation regarding the current recession,
finally asked me the most dreaded question, "Where are you from?"


I said, "Nepal."


"Oh Nepal, such a beautiful place, I hear. Isn't it a part of India, or China? I hear a lot of Tibetans are in Nepal."


I was dumbstruck.


"No, it is a separate country. India and China are only neighbors. And the Tibetans are refugees."


"Oh, I see! I was always confused whether Nepal is in India or China."


It just killed the buzz of the whole conversation, and they left, apologizing for their bad Geography.


And to the debate that whether Buddha was born in Nepal or India, well,
after the inclusion, there will not be any such debates nor any
facebook groups with ludicrous titles. We will all be ONE.



6. Now this point really takes my breath away. Protests and arson in
the roadblocks over usage of Hindi in the parliament. It is really
confusing, as to why those leaders, use Hindi in the places like
Parliament. I hear Nepali is a regional language in India already. That
perplexes me as well. But I satisfy my curiosity and dissatisfaction
thinking that Spanish is the second official language in the US. And I
can see notices in the US government buildings and offices in at least
6 or 7 foreign languages. But I believe they still speak English in the
Senate and Congress. So, this will benefit in less protests and
roadblocks and arson in the roads, and save us many tires, otherwise
primarily used for transportation. If it does not stop, we will be the
second biggest importers of JK tires and Ceate tires, first being SriLanka. It still breaks my heart to see a father carrying his young son
home with plastered leg on his back when the spectators are busy
participation in a roadblock. Thank God, they did not burn tires!!



7. We call them, Dhoti, Madhisey, Marsyaa. And they call us Bahadur.
See the difference. They still feel threatened by us in name giving. I
still crack at this joke.


A vegetable man says along, " Aloo lei lo, pyaaz lei lo." And goes
about the neighborhood asking to sell his fresh merchandise. Then he
knocks in one Newar's house.


"Sahuni, aalo lei lo, pyaaz lei lo!"


Sahuni asks her son to go see who it is. "Swo su kha?" (see, who is it?)


The son hurries to the door, opens it, sees him and shuts the door and comes to his mom. Sahuni asks him,"Su kha?" (Who is it?)


The son replies nonchalantly," Suna makhu, marsyaa kha!" ( Nobody, it is just the Marysaa [Madhisey in KTM slang])


I hear one black teenager say to another, " Nigger, you fool to do that." The other black teenager laughs it off.


I again hear one white teenager say to another black teenager,"Nigger,
you fool to do that." ( in the same accent). Five minutes laters, I see
the white teenager limping on his way to the restroom, with bruises on
his face. (sure, I didnot see it, I made it up)!!


You get my point?



8. We already do that, don't we? :D



9. I hear and see petitions being signed about the illegal encroachment
of Nepalese borders. I hear people arguing about it. But what I do not
get it, what the f**k are these politicians doing about it. I have not
heard of anything. So, what can we do? We can take our "Mashaal Julus"
to the Indian part of the border, burn some tires, burn the Indian flag
and maybe some effigies, and plant our big Nepalese flag as a retort to
such shameful act. Only pray that they won't open fire on us. The US or
UN is not interested in Indo-Nepal border conflicts. They are busier in
other important things. Like monitoring the Iranian election closely
and debating whether they should invade Iran for their atrocious
people-killing response to the protests of the outcome of the election.
Or they are worried if N Korea becomes a nasty rogue nation and whether
they should put the mongrel of Kim down. They are already scratching
their heads for Iraqi invasion. So, they need to be extra careful this
time. No border, no conflicts, no tension!!



10. I hear times and again, Indian consultancies exploit Nepalese. Only
Nepalese are working for these consultancies? No other nationalities
work through them. I have no idea. But what I know for sure is, given
the picture, Nepalese are the small fraction of the workforce these
consultancies employ, Indians and other foerign graduates and workers
being the larger chunk. Still, they manage to exploit only Nepalese.
Well, that problem will soon be over.



Pheww...Those were many interesting benefits.I would love to discuss
the disadvantages too, but I am tired for now. Maybe next time :D!!



Now a word of advice for the Die-Hard Wolverine-esque Patriots:


Hard liners are what put people and nations in the misery. Everybody is
entitled to their opinion and views put across for a civil debate, in
order to gain a common solution. In my honest opinion, true patriots
are the one who ruin the country, but then, at the same time, true
patriots are the one who build the nation and economy and well-being.
They are the flip-side of the coin. It is only a matter of what you use
your patriotism in, being a Medusa or being a Midas. And if you do not
understand the allusion, I am sorry I, yet again, fail to put my views
across in more comprehensible manner. Take your pick, Medusa or Midas.
Either way, we are f***d, but lets decide how bad or how good we want
it to be.
