For centuries, Hindu women have worn a dot on their foreheads.  Most of us have naively thought this was connected with tradition or religion, but the Indian Embassy in Ottawa has recently revealed the true story.

When a Hindu woman gets married, she brings a dowry into the union. On her wedding night, the husband scratches off the dot to see whether he has won a convenience store, a gas station, a donut shop, a taxi cab or a motel in the United States.

If nothing is there, he must remain in India to answer telephones and provide technical advice.

One last comment....

"In Delaware, the largest growth of population is Indian Americans, moving from India. You cannot go to a 7/11 or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I'm not joking."
Joe Biden

Okay, I'm done.

Threads or posts that denigrate a group of people just for the sake of doing so are repugnant. Just my opinion.

 pee pee doo doo you are a bad poster


I see you aren't intelligent enough to understand the difference either. Your edge has been blunted.

so if i make an assertion about your (in)ability to understand the deep, secret, mysterious, and sacred context of my posts without presenting any kind of evidence that i actually knew what i was talking about in the first place, i too can be condescending, deluded into thinking i am correct, and just generally unfunny? changed my mind, i am adapting your posting style to better bridge the gap between me and my distant sense of self confidence

I think you'll find it's you making the major fuss, you just couldn't h andle criticism.

 Besides, there were plenty of people criticising you, Fauna just decided to carry on going when you retaliated. As did MMM.


Plenty of people criticizing me? I think you're misreading things.  

And since the 'majority' (lol) is against me, I'll stop posting here.


Aww, you're spoiling our fun, dear.

Thankyou for creating one of my all time favourite LW topics. Truly hilarious.

Bahahaaaaa.

 OP fails on a major level. These are the kind of topic replies which remind me why I'm still a member of LW. Kudos to Fauna.

 Seriously, 5 people saying 'Lol' makes it a bona fide joke? I think not. The 'Lol's are far outweighed by the criticism which you oh so wittily retort against.


One person making a major fuss outweighs the ones who smiled? Yeah, that's logical.

And just because you found it shitty and unfunny makes it so? That you don't see the humor there is not my fault, dear. That you are making such a big deal of it would be funny in itself if it wasn't so sad.

er, yeah, I would say it's mainly the fact that I find it shitty and unfunny which is making me say so. that you're getting on your high horse and continuing with this ridiculous patronizing tone is funny itself, despite the fact it's rather sad.

I don't really care though, in fact, I care less now than I did at the beginning, I'm just finding this topic pretty funny hence the 'big deal'.

And do you really think that "party in my pants" and "ska ninja" were "lulz"ing because the joke was such a deliciously nuanced take on cultural stereotyping, clearly and accurately lampooning its flaws? No. They read it, thought "LOL! DOT!" and then left those brilliant verbose retorts you've handily quoted.  

Five people found a shitty joke funny, that doesn't make it any less shitty and unfunny.
