I Don't Know.


So things are very, very random today. I don't even know what to label the post, what to write, how to write, what not to write....well frankly, its because just the idea of people reading my inane, STUPID ramblings is very scary. And that too, assuming people actually READ this shit. Which I'm sure they don't. Hah. Good.

Right, so anyway, one of my closest friends Khan (actually Rabia Khan but i prefer calling her Khan) recieved a 'rishta' recently (the word just makes me crack up) and the rishtay walay are coming to see her today. Just the parents, not the guy....and even though we've been thinking up crazy, mad, funny, mad-mad-mad situations which have kept us laughing like idiots all day...its a scary thing. This offer of a rishta "sada munda bara sohna ay " and then the parents coming to observe the selected piece in its natural environment and then judging (negatively) every single expression, gesture, word that the poor girl exhibits.

Obviously, she has to be pretty, well-dressed, "gori, chitti, lambi". Emphasis on gori. Double emphasis. And the rishta i just mentioned..for Khan? The guy has very explicitly stated "larki boht pyari ho, lambi ho, slim ho, boht gori ho, etc." Matlab, wtf? You expect china dolls?! What is wrong with a girl who has a slightly darker complexion than average? Or who's short and not model-thin? What is wrong with people? These stupid, STUPID prejudices make me soooo angry because they're completely baseless and logic-less and everything less! Especially these prospective mother-in-laws...GOD they're really racist and prejudiced when it comes to choosing brides for their beloved prince-like sons. And then when you even hint that their son might not be as perfect as they think he is, (how DARE you?!) they go "looks aren't everything".

What a HYPOCRITICAL attitude! You're choosing a girl for your son based on what? Solely her looks! Ugh, I could go on and on. I've to go check on the dwindling water supply. Since we've had precious little water for 4-5 DAYS. Pakistan zindabad. More ranting later.
