SomaliNet Forums

i'll start:

-Generally overtly loud

-Large ugly family vans (preferably toyota)

-Fear of dogs (i personally run a marathon when i see one )

-BBC somali.....damn i hate that annoying theme song.Especially when you're trying to get something done and the computer speakers are on full blast......with the telephone reciever...near the speakers so that some habar can get some insider news on who killed who.....UFF!!

-Extremely scary decor...like wth...only we have medieval looking curtains and carpets covering every inch of the house!!

Good hospitality...wherever you go somalis always wlc you with open arms.

Strong family bands....we help our families no matter what and always be there for them.

somali women who wear huje jilbab , they look like moving tent

somali bus drivers who stare at you when you go inside

I don't have a van nor do my fam.

I'm not loud at all, unless I'm watching an intense game of sport

I don't listen to Somali BBC, matter fact I can't stand that sh.it

But I'm truely scurrred of Dogs, see I rather face a pissed of red-neck with a knife then a Dog.

Creative beings as they have a million uses for vaseline
Very blunt especially older women (don't ever help out at gatherings...chances are you will be critiqued!)
Opinionated
Qabiil obsessed
Have an attachment to the deen masha Allah
PROUD to be Somali (ever catch yourself saving "Of course I'm Somali!")
