Samafal Posted December 26, 2004 If I am being honest, Somalis are very loud, dont respect quees and lot of us lack basic discipline. A year ago I took my sister to Gatwick airport to catch an airplane to Somalia, and most of the passengers in the terminal were somalis. Guess what, the airplane staff had to call the police becouse people were jumping the quees and there were a lot of querrel and pushing you dont see in any where else in this land. And ooh dont even mention children running around the escalators as if they have never seen one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honesita Posted December 27, 2004 I actually noticed that too...i always asked my self not why are somalis loud...but why in the world am i so loud...!! I'm always told keep it down, talk about quarrels with white chicks in the library.....so it doesnt really bother me when i hear other somalis loud...i just smile, cuz it reminds me of my beautiful loud voice...lol..!! Last nite, me and my friends were hanging out at this lounge, and as we were getting really loud, this egyptian group of men were leaving, the guy jokingly said to me, we're leaving because u were so loud (looking at me)..i knew he was serious (ouch)...!!

STOIC Posted December 27, 2004 I was shocked one day when my Indian classmate asked me why the ethiopians think that the somalis are uncouthed people.I informed my indian freind that the Ethos have a disposition to disagree with the somali people.Why do the ethiopians have a hard feelings towards the somalis? This is a question i have been asking my self for quite some time now.I have never lived or associated with the ethiopians other than minor shoulder brush in campus.I know i have deviated from the topic, i beg your courteous allowance unless it is depleted. | Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xoogsade Posted December 27, 2004 Putting Aside the long standing disagreements and wars we had with them, when it comes to personal behaviour and attitudes, they have some good points while we have some weaknesses as much as we have some good characteristics. No one is perfect. This is not about historical enmity but an observation people made about somalis. We should work on the weakness rather than try to dismiss it just because someone you don't like mentioned it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Senora Posted December 27, 2004 ^^^Exactly my sentiments^^ It doesnt matter who said it, its whats being said that should be paid more attention. man you should be proud of what u r guys....so what if u or me or them talk so loudly....theres so muchh more in this life than to complain about how people talk..... Is this the sort of behavior you would allow your children to enact??? Respecting others, being mindful of the perceptions we leave behind, is something we as Somali's should be proud of. While this sort of act is unfortunately a characteristic of our people, it is neither something we should be proud of nor something we should excuse.

Reality Check Posted January 3, 2005 Originally posted by Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar: Salaan... Folks, I was searching something related to Soomaalis, and quickly came across this thread ee ila aqriya bal: I n the city I live in there are so many Somalis. I like my brothers and sisters from the East and nor do I have any hard feelings but why why why do they have to talk so loud all the time in public... I just spent 30 minutes at a coffee place during lunch to catch up on some reading and there was this Somali guy half way across this big sitting area and everyone, I mean everyone in the coffee shop could hear him talk on the phone. Of course, we don’t know what he was talking about and I don’t care but why does he have to talk so loud? It was so embarrassing . This is what gives us bad names. The problem is, the white {bolds mine} folks can’t tell the difference between Ethiopians and Somali and take as the same . I am embarrassed!!! By another Amxaar/Tigrey poster: I was trying to buy a phone card, Man it tooks me a long time to talk to the grocery store owner. These two gentel men from somali never stop talking. It is hard to interrupt. they don't care about you unless, you keep your mouth open like them. I think they have a luck of respect for others. I don't mean all somalis. You can't compare them with our poeple. Our people have more discipline and respect to others better than any other African countries . From an Itoobiyan forum. _____________ PS, to those who wrote the above sentences, just in case you are reading now as I happened to yours: @#$&% OFF! MMA, why are you telling them to f* off because they are telling the truth. Somali folkz are loud...even by another Somali's standard! They were not lyin'..and we should take this as a constructive critism and help our qaxooti nomads readjust their volumes! lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alle-ubaahne Posted January 3, 2005 MMA, Saaxiib ma aheyn inaad itoobiyaanka foosha-xun nooga nacamleyso, waa inaad wax ka tiraahdid arinta kor u hadlida ah oo aad soo jeedisid talooyin iyo afkaaro wanwanaagsan oo waxtar leh. Tusaale qaldan ayaad noogu soo qaadatay waliba dad cadow inoo ah oo naceyb iyo dagaal naga dhexeeyo. Waad ku qaldantahay arintaan aad soo gudbisay ee fadlan waxaad dadka weydiisataa cafis iyo inaad naga raali galisid, dadku waa qaldami karaan. Marka waa sidaas saaxiib. Or should I say to you otherwise so as to undermine the respect my people deserve of me? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
