There are many that we can all think of, but I will start with these 3
1. Indian women and their mixies
Have u ever observed your mom turn on the mixie in the kitchen? One hand will operate the electric on/off knob.
The other? It goes right on top of the mixie container's lid.
My mom says it is to make sure that the contents of the mixie dont fall off!
Give me a break! If the mixie was designed to throw the contents out of the mixie while running it, it would never be called a mixie!
PS: when I ran the mixie, i also put my hand on the lid. i feared that if the contents actually spilled out, i wudnt be able to write this blog!
2."5 Minutes please"
Go anywhere in India. If people cannot attend to you immediately or they dont want to attend to you, there is a standard answer "5 minutes please"
Does everyone know how long is 5 minutes?
Why is it always '5'? Why not '7 minutes sir' ?
You know whats worse?
Ya you know it.."One minute..i ll get back to you"
Damn you! If you could do something in 60 seconds, I wouldnt be talking to you.
3.Queues
Queues are meant to put people in a line.
A straight line that is.
In India, the queues go horizontally.
If its ur turn, u will have the person behind you, waiting by your side and eager for u to finish. No privacy nothing.
Its like if your turn is about to come next, you HAVE to stand right next to the person ahead of you.
Such enthusiasm!
Tell me more such hilarious habits you find amongst us all!
