Express yourself the Lebanese way

May 15th, 2008 | 3 Comments | Posted in rambling

We, Lebanese, have a very special way of expressing our feelings. A way, I must admit, I haven’t seen or heard about in any other country in the world.

Some people dance, other cry, people write, laugh etc… But WE do it with guns !

I really wonder how come I’m 30 years old and never held a gun, I should be the shame of the country. Because here, whatever it is we just let out some gun shots.

  • In weddings we shoot
  • In funerals we shoot
  • A friend/parent/etc.. is back from a trip ? We shoot
  • Gotta a problem ? Shoot him and don’t worry about it anymore
  • Your political leader is on TV ? We shoot
  • The opponent political leader is on TV ? Shoot louder than the others are shooting
  • Had a problem with your wife ? Go to the balcony shoot out that stress
  • It is a BOY !!! Shoot
  • it is a GIRL !!! Doesn’t matter shoot anyway
  • You’re happy ? Shoot high in the sky !

At this point you might wonder what is the national sport here in Lebanon !

Well no it is not hunting it is eating ;)
