Arranged Valentines

February 20th, 2004 Zack Leave a comment Go to comments

A funny episode on Pakistani TV by Avari-Nameh:

During a Valentine’s Day “special.” A —- my family would call her “modern” —- woman is interviewing an evidently very happy couple.

Hostess: So how long have you been celebrating Valentine’s Day?

Husband: Just a few years now. We’ve only started recently, but we really enjoy it.

Hostess: That’s so wonderful. Tell me, and tell our viewers, how did you two meet and fall in love?

Husband: Actually, we’re first cousins. The marriage was arranged.

Also, check out the comparison of Islamabad to Little Rock, AR in the same post.

    too bad the blog author links to jihad unspun, the al qaeda site (among others…)

    godless: I don’t know what jihad unspun is about since I have never visited them.

    Avari-Nameh is an interesting weblog with which I do have some profound disagreements. Just like Gene Expression.
