Le Bi

My friend shared this article with me today.
I read it, but I thought that it was slightly exaggerated?  Let's just say that I'm aware of the practices in one way or another. We'll stick to that for the time being, maybe I'd feel like sharing some other time. hehe


But still, this practice is quite prehistoric. And what's even worse is that they abuse the arrested by applying methods and tests that goes beyond the person's comfort zone, and by knowing that most people are not aware of the fact that they can disagree with these testing methods.
So yeah.
Lovely corrupted country we live in.

I was directed to this documentary.
I'm watching it right now and it's surely fueling my anti-corruption excitement.
This means, weird plans boil inside my head.

MUST SEE!

... in/than Lebanon.


Have you ever noticed that we often have these exclamations in our daily chitchat?

- Uf shou sari3a 3endkoun l connection!  Your internet connection is so fast!
- Lek shou mrattab hel mat3am! This restaurant is so neat!
- Khay, mafi 3aj2et ser lyom! There's no traffic jam today.
- Ma betrou7 3endkoun l kahraba? Your electricity is never disconnected?
- W ma ken madroub l alcool? The alcohol wasn't bad?
- Walla, be3tin 7ada ynadif hel tor2at! It seems they've sent people to clean roads!
- Rokhes l benzin (100 lira ?) ! fuel got cheaper !
- Lek shou ndif hel ba7er, mish ka2an lebnen! This beach is so clean, as if it's not Lebanon!
- Mni7 l2it ma7al soff! It's cool, I found a place to park!
- Zmatna mnel joura! I missed the hole !(yeah our roads are quite "hole-ly")
- 3aal, mdawrin l dwiyeh 3al tari2! thank god the road is lit!
- Aklo ndif w le2mto taybeh! The food there is clean and is very good.
and yada yada yada.....

Are we doomed to have such lame services? I mean it's really disgusting when you see how stagnating we remain while other countries are so far ahead, when our problems seem archaic and solutions seem too far fetched for our dear politicians.

My friends, you only see that in Lebanon, the weird clapping scenario that happens at awkward times.

Here's a couple of scenarios that just came to mind.(I'll be updating this soon)



Airplane landing fiesta: when the pilot lands the airplane

Arrival fiesta (airport): when friends/relatives arrive at the airport

Movie ending fiesta: when the movie ends at the theater (bad guy dies,marriage,final kiss,etc.) [it's not a theater I'm afraid]

Yes fiesta : at the wedding, when the bride/groom says yes [because he brought you all the way here so he can ditch her a the altar]
