"I'm a proud Indian"

by **Imran Khan** » Wed Apr 28, 2004 2:25 pm

A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is an

American.

She asks her students to raise their hands if they were American

too.

Not really knowing why but wanting to be like their teacher, their

hands

explode into the air like flashy fireworks.

There is, however, one exception. A girl named Gita has not gone

along with

the crowd.

The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different.

"Because I am not an American." replied Gita.

"Then", asks the teacher, "What are you?"

"I'm a proud Indian," boasts the little girl.

The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She

asks Gita

why she is an Indian.

"Well", my mom and dad are Indians, "so I'm an Indian too."

The teacher is now angry. "That's no reason", she says loudly "if

your mom

was an idiot, and your dad was an idiot, what would you be then?"

A pause, and a smile.

"Then" says Gita, "I'd be an American."

Heaven : Indian Wife, American salary, British House, and Chinese Food.

Hell : American Wife, Indian salary, Chinese House, and british Food.

I wonder how many of you will be patting each other on the back and splurging smileys all over the place if in the above, I replace America with India and Indian with Pakistani. Just puts things in perspective. Things are not so black and white.

I was intending to start an "Not everything about India is wonderful and wherever we go, we should try to blend in and not make our own Ghettoes" discussion

Well the "not make our own ghetoes" accusation is applicable to any race, religion or creed of people wherever they go. So it's unfair to specifically point to us Indians doing that.

may be true, but atleast in the software circles abroad, Indians are well known for ghetto mentality. The goras complain that Indian S/w engrs form their own groups at work and dont mingle. Not only that, they have loud discussion/gossip session (with some loud laughter) in mother tongue in the middle of the office (or in cafeteria), in working hours. this is a common complaint aginst indians, especially i am sorry to say, telugus.

yeh I heard from one of my friends that in MS they have strictly instructed employees to speak only in english...coz the indian employees were frequently using hindi and other indian language abuses in there conversations and the poor angrez guys didnt understand a bit of it :wink:

why not instead teach the angrez junta indian galiyaan and make the work place quiter as they(angrez) can respond in the same manner? :roll:

"I'm a proud Indian"

"I'm a proud Indian"

This should be some brain candy!!

Re: "I'm a proud Indian"

on the contrary
