only in america....
do we have daylight savings time, forget to set our clocks back, and show up at work one hour early.

damn.

I have been experiencing "Mood Off" since Bush got reelected.

And I have been experiencing, "Jhau," after Bush's victory.

and i have just been depressed, disgusted, disillusioned, and discouraged by the american people. that's the thing- it's not even the bush administration that i'm horrified by anymore. it's the majority of americans that support him!

aba ta pheri bahira desh maa basne bichaar chha!

hey, what's the mood like in dc these days?

i don't even tune in to political news anymore. it is scary that knowing all the facts about Bush, people have decided to bring him back. so i really haven't checked out the mood in dc for real.

only in nepal the election campaign comes to halt 24 hours before the election. in US I realized it goes on just like energizer battery.

here's our hero.....

Only in Nepal:
There is only King's Photo in the currency. (In other countries eg. In Japan there is other popular personality's photo: like Hideo Deguchi or the Nobel Prize winner etc.)

Haina Devkotako rakhe hunna?
Deshko lagi marne sahidharuko rakhe hunna?
Gautam Buddhako janmasthal Lumbiniko rakhe hunna?
Sagarmathako rakhe hunna?

Mero rakhe hunna?
Bedrockko rakhe hunna? PGko rakhe k hunchha?

So, yeah, this Bushie's a little bit of a freak... He's stupid and irritating and has managed to alienate everyone. And he looks like a chimpanzee, seriously Google a picutre of a lil' munkey and it's the same face! But the PEOPLE voted. According to a clear majority (of around THREE MILLION PEOPLE) they think he is better suited to do the job.

Now compare this to our country. When 12 Nepali people get massacred in Iraq our government didn't do anything. They just sat there and stroked their fat, shining bellies. And we're okay with that. We like our "king."

When Bushie's bitty ol' nation got hit he took over!!! Stormed every turban he could.

I wanted Kerry, badly, but I can see why people wanted Bushie.

dada giri, good point!
why is the king's ugly mukh all over nepali money, especially when he is a king that is not liked or respected by the public?!?!
you made some great suggestions.

only in nepal can you buy all sorts of great snacks from the window of a bus.
"eh, badam badam badam, nariwaal nariwaal nariwaal...."
"oh, kokero kokero kokero....."

PG,
What's "oh, kokero kokero kokero....." ??
Is it "Oh, kakro, kakro, kakro?" but said in an American accent?

The so called "Window Shopping" actually originated from Nepal and India while buying badam and nariol from the bus window.

Only in America, people have no idea what's window shopping is like in our part of the world. Bill Gates have totally different view of Windows shopping :)

taking about Southern accent in the US. Check out our Southern accent from Terai when they yell "Naaaaaaaaaaary OL, Badam, Chai, Mekai, Bis Cit"

LOL Hurray!
I also was confused. Ke koreko Bhanya k... Nau bisema bhanya jasto lagchha
"taareko! tareko!!" haina ra? Anda ke ... ...

Only in Nepal: There is Nepal bandh once in a week.(Nepal Bandh kya)
Only in Amerika: There in US bandh twice in a week (sat and Sunday kya)

i agree with gaule's view... why does it have to be the king's pictures in the notes?

let's have Devkota or Buddha or Lekhnath Poudel or whoever.... they're far competent to be in there than the king.

why not include the pictures of some statues that you can find in nepali temples... a form of ancient pornography :D

Dada Giri,
Tareko Anda, re? Window bata...?

More like Tareko Machha, in galchi, dolalghat, and kuley khaney.

haaterika! i f*#ked up the word for cucumber. but, at least you all got what i meant. thanks for pointing it out hurray.

yeah, gaalab, there's that temple in bhaktapur with all sorts of kinky animals. you want humping elephants on your money?

gaule --> i'd prefer that to the ghusse-and-chusse mukh of the incumbent rider of nepali notes. well, why animas? there are statues of men and women doing mann-pardi. (abui.. bhanna pani laaz lagne! uhuhuu)

Our religion is so cool. We are allowed to have Bhhang during Holi, Weed during Shivaratri, watch the erotic paintings and statues during visit to temples and dance like Natraj to be in state of Trance. Do it in moderation and we will be on top of Everest.....

Redrock,
I interpreted what you mean for the title of this thread as following:


Only in Nepal:

We have festivals for smoking Bhang, Dhaturo etc. (Shivaratri) We have festival for gambling (Teehar: Cards, Langoor-burza, Juwa etc.) Thanks for the key.
Fagu purnima for chhyaping girls... he he kati ramaailo hunchha KT ko (.)(.) mai lagyo bhane hamro culture ...

Dada Giri- You made me Redrock from Bedrock. Thanks for the interpretation. However, keep me out of (.)(.) and (::) I don't want to make our ladies angry.

Dada giri tero pani tala ko (1) ma lagyo bhane kasto ramailo huncha hai. I am sure you will land up direct in the emergency ward if not in hell.
I hate holi, its the worst festival on earth. Aru lai pani chapera how can anyone be happy? TAra sick and filthy people like dada giri are an exception.

Touch the Sky... come on Relax.
Why don't you go touch the sky and then come back? It should be relaxing.
