ha ha ha...enough sermonising...... I found this really amusing ..and... I did do some of these....

Top 21 things an Indian does after returning from being abroad :

21. Tries to use credit card in road side hotel.

20. Drinks and carries mineral water and always speaks of health consciousness.

19. Sprays deo so much that he doesn't need to take bath.

18. Sneezes and says 'Excuse me'.

17. Says Hey instead of Hi
Says Yogurt instead of Curd
Says Cab instead of Taxi
Says Candy instead of Chocolate
Says Cookie instead of Biscuit
Says 'Free Way' instead of Highway
Says got to go instead of Have to go
Says O instead of Zero (for 704, says Seven Oh! Four instead of Seven Zero Four)

16. Doesn't forget to crib about air pollution. Keeps on complaining about it every time he steps out.

15. Says all the distances in Miles (Not in Kilo Meters), and counts in Millions. (Not in Lakhs)

14. Tries to figure all the prices in Dollars as far as possible (but deep down the heart multiplies by 45 times).

13. Tries to see the % of fat on the cover of a milk packet.

12. When need to say Z (zed), never says Z (Zed), repeats Zee several times, if the other person is unable to get it, then says X, Y, Zee.

11. Writes date as MM/DD/YYYY, and on seeing traditional DD/MM/YYYY, says & Oh! British Style!!!!

10. Makes fun of Indian Standard Time and 'Indian Road' Conditions.

9. Even after 2 months, complains about Jet Lag.

8. Avoids eating more spicy (hot) stuff.

7. Tries to drink Diet Coke instead of 'Normal' Coke.

6. Tries to complain about any thing in 'India' as if he/she is experiencing it for the first time.

5. Pronounces schedule as skejule and module as mojule.

4. Looks suspiciously towards Hotel/Dhaba food.

3. From the luggage bag, does not remove the stickers of Airways by which he traveled back to 'India', even after 4 months of arrival.

2. Takes the cabin luggage bag to short visits in India, tries to roll the bag on Indian Roads.

Ultimate one

1. Tries to begin conversation with; In US .... or When I was in US...

Pretty,

OUCH ...I'm guilty of most of these...I say zee instead of zed and skedule instead of shedule, say O instead of zero AND still have trouble with the date thingie...BUT...I luuuuvvvvvvvvv dhaaba food, roadside gol gappas and all that yummy stuff ....

My favourite however is....after a 2 week visit to the US, some come back with a such a strong American TWANG...and when you ask them to repeat what they're saying they look at you as though you're some "gaon ki chori"

It is true to an extent. The twang can remain for years. Let me see what my daughter does when she returns.

Live & Let Live
