And for me to add personally?

OF course it has to be...

You have a difficult Arabic name so you come up with an Americanized version of it like "Sam" or "Mike."

Your Mom has a creative nickname for you like "Natoosheh," or "Tuntooneh."

Your father swears at you with words that effect himself (Ibnil Kalb). (son of a dog)

You FIGHT over who pays the dinner bill.

Answer 2

Yes, as a matter of fact I do...that we are so important that you had to type for 30 minutes to get your question on yahoo

I got #37 for u
you call your children ya Mama or ya Baba when it should be the other way around.

Answer 3

I just like to say that since you said in #35 that "Lebanese people are always right!" i guess "you're right!", since you are definitely a Lebanese coz you sure know all our unique characteristics ;)

Answer 4

I think it was kessinger that said: lebanon is a geographical surplus.

what amazes me more is that lebanese keep talking about the "lebanese cause" and the politics that come along although most of them live outside lebanon and don't plan to return.

If i were to add one: i'd say they're hypocrits!!

Answer 5

haha. life, nothing to add. you and Toushka summed it all up so well ( I think she's earned the 10 pts)

Dove darling, lighten up, we are good at trashing ourselves as much as trashing others all in the name of fun.
