Right, I agree.
I had a point with my above post, about something. Dammit.

Re: Mo Farah issue raises again social awkwardness of Somali
Is it equally as valid then to apply your hypothesis to Somalis of western education?
Your argument has potential for transposition. Since educated by america they should forever belong to america
Damn what percentage of the TFG belongs to a foreign state?
You are forgiven for the half hearted whimsical gesture and the usual condescending overtures that seldom provide the expected finale. What a translucent spectacle of a character conceited beyond any celestial redemption. Every reading of your some what regurgitated cerebral excrete lacks genuine concern for your fellow man. The common denominator of your responses as though esoteric admonitions lacks both constructive criticism and borders on plain irrelevant. Your attempt to conceal your contempt for certain groups correlates with the diminutive intellectual property of a down syndrome acquired in adulthood. It is visible that you attempt to paint a lucid expression for the layman and yet i can epitomize your entire desired resultant on the passive minds to nothing other then disingenuous and passively malicious.
I honestly have reached the conclusion that you derive joy from the misery incurred from your posts.
I pity you...

Re: Mo Farah issue raises again social awkwardness of Somali
The Republic,
You are insulting your people in this thread. I will agree with that somalis are socially inadequate, but that's not a reason to berate them for celebrating the victory of a somali man. You even said it yourself that you agree he is an ethnic somali. I'll admit that some people are overplaying his somaliness while downplaying his britishness but thats just how proud people are of this man. He is one of the few shining moments for our country in the last twenty years and your gonna sit here and be an asshole to people who are the celebrating the victory? Come on man. Mo Farah is a somali icon now. He's right up there with k'naan

Re: Mo Farah issue raises again social awkwardness of Somali
Learn how to debate without sounding like you're on your period. I'm happy for the ethnic Somali guy, and I don't give a fuck about you and what you think of me. Take that home nicca, I aint wasting my time arguing with you. Typical dhoocil in every thread.

Mo is Somali, will always be a Somali and Somalis will always celebrate his victories on the world stage. We could careless what flag he waves. Mo made us proud indeed.
It is not about you.
It has nothing to do with you.
Your opinion has no right simply because you share ethnic identity.
Point is Mo Farah has already spoken for himself, keep your sniveling, emotional, symbolic, unimportant, and pseudo-nationalism from trying to give you the right to own his achievement and super-impose his identity. I already said he is a Somali but he is not a Somalia/Somaliland national so get over yourself and stop meddling in individual people and their right to speak for themselves.
Like I said, if I ever do anything noteworthy I would hate the thought of you and some other socially awkward Somali around the world speaking for me and trying to own my achievements in "Somalinimo" to the point of denying credit to the United States when I have already acknowledged that credit.![]()
The man is a Somali guy of British making, stop arguing with British people for claiming their product when Mo Farah has acknowledged their right:
Here is how Mo Farah, his voice denoting impatience, responded last night when asked by one journalist if he would have preferred to run as a Somali.
"Look mate, this is my country.
This is where I grew up, this is where I started life. This is my country and when I put on my Great Britain vest I'm proud. I'm very proud."

Well said, Cirwaaq, Mo Farah`s achievement raises the tarnished Somali name. Whether he was representing Britain or not he was certainly an inspiration for future Somali youth!Cirwaaq wrote:Is it equally as valid then to apply your hypothesis to Somalis of western education?

Forget this Somalia/Somaliland/Britain thing for a minute.
The biggest ceeb is the malis oo qabiil isku dagaalaya on youtube comments.
Everyone else is
For Somalida to write niinkan Somalia oo ka yimid and rubbing it in to gaalada is a slap in the face. Computer ee ka soo qoroyaan is in London.
All the services oo ingriiska in la isticmaalo oo markaasna diidaan waa ceeb.

Re: Mo Farah issue raises again social awkwardness of Somali
I definitely see the social awkwardness of denying someone his nationality, I sometimes troll facebook by calling myself a proud American, and almost all somalis from europe get hostile saying YOUR SOMALI!! stop denying who u are LOL...they just confused about ethnicity and nationality, don't be too hard on him as they don't mean any harm.
However regardless of representation or political differences, I am always proud of SOMALI EXCELLENCE
and Mo-Farah was looking quite rare out there

Re: Mo Farah issue raises again social awkwardness of Somali
What in the world is this Cirwaaq guy talking about? Dude seriously just stop posting. Honestly.
Mo Farah is British national, running for Great Britain, wearing a British vest, holding a British flag, and winning to have God Save the Queen sung in the track field.
This is Mo Farah:
Cirwaaq, my college professors would have given you an F for bullshit. I remember a particular professor who loved to call people out on "Bullshit" or the nature of not preparing for a discussion, understanding what is being talked about and yapping for the sake of yapping. Stop trying to be relavant when what you have said has no relavance to the subject.
Please, go yap uncontrobaly to someone else who has time for your shenanigans.
This goes out to all the other socially-awkward Somalis around the world who believe by virtue of being a Somali, they have total ownership over who you are or what you have accomplished.

So then why are Somalis arguing with British people about who can claim Mo Farah's national achievement?Farah was indignant when asked at a press conference whether he would have preferred to win for Somalia.
"Look, mate," he said in a London accent. "This is my country."

Re: Mo Farah issue raises again social awkwardness of Somali
It irritates me like hell brah when I see the shit a lot of them write.
