Laba-X Posted January 30, 2006 Is it just me or is it all Somali houses are Similar in almost every aspect - They smell the same - often a mixture of uunsi, hilib and smell of babies and nappies They all somehow have the 'same' or very similar furnishing consisting of almost the same Fadhi-Carbeed, the same pelmets abover the curtains, the same Arabian rugs, and often the same decorations of the holy Qur'an on the walls. They all, or majority of them, have near-enough the same T.V set with Arabic Satellites which they all buy from their trusted Somali man at a fixed price. If they visit another friends house and see something they like, soon their entire circle of friends would want to have it too, and often from the same dealer! What is with this peculiar trend? P.s if you think i've missed out any other such weird details please feel free to add! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maf Kees Posted January 30, 2006 LOOOL,waryaa stop hanging around single mother's houses. U sheeg! Loool. LaboX, Somali people compete with each other. From babies to mothers and from old men to teenage girls. Somalis love to compete with other Somalis. But Somali women are the worst, because we all know women hate women!

Ibtisam Posted January 30, 2006 But Somali women are the worst, because we all know women hate women! :confused: really i did't know that. Our house use to look like a typical Somali house until me and my brother redecorated it last summer. i have not being to enough Somali house to come to the that conclusion, but i guess it is like when you go to a Somali wedding and everyone is wearing the same style dirac in different colours :rolleyes: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

- Femme - Posted January 30, 2006 I have a neighbour who insists on buying her children the exact same clothing in the exact same colour for her kids when she sees one of my sibs wearing it. They're grown to hate her. But peaceful mom keeps telling her when she asks 'dukaankee ka soo gadatey? i geey'. LOL. I'd be like hell no - get out of my face nayaa.

Laba-X Posted January 30, 2006 Talk about Homogeneity and a Homogeneous Society! Weddings i must admit are the funniest thing! Do they ever change? Waryaa Faarax-Brown its my personal avowal that i won't come near your Single-mother territory. That would be considered a felony! Dhankee baad ka cayaari jirtey horta? Danyeer women are an entirely different case. They'd be like "Naa maanoo Ina hebel hebel ah, baa dirac qarnigii hore ah xirta. Walle taasi waa hebeenkii xalayoo tegey! Kooley, hasn't your neighbour got any of your age. If so, waad ka fakatay! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J.Lee Posted January 30, 2006 lol@Pacific to be specific. Assuming you don't know this: degaanka within a magaalo have N, S, E and W value too walaal. (Feelin' froggy, then jump sucka). That old man was a pervert and oh yeah, yur. B.T.W I have a weird detail: What is up with the hookah craze :confused: It just looks like an elaborately decorated and gilded bong people. Runtii. The first time I seen it at a Somali house- not knowing what it was -I thought my neighbor inay si xun u il baxday (OG triple G bay mareysaa baan is idhi) walee sidaa u naxay sambabadii baa i kala xirmi gaaray. weirdly, I kept remembering Chappelle on half-baked: Right near de beach As for the question, I guess they are all trying to keep up with the joneses.
