10 Extremely Desi Things That Happen In Every Pakistani Household

[Moonlight]

Very inaccurate, you shouldn't generalize all Pakistanis do this. I'd say only villagers would do stuff like this.

Har Baat main senti nahi hote. This is so freaking accurate.

2. When you know the toothpaste needs to be replaced but you really don't care and suck the life out of it.

The only reason I do this one is because I'm too lazy to go buy a new one . . .

I totally agree. My brought up is very similar. She always say, "beta kafiyat shari se rehte Hain". It teaches you many lessons about life.
But on lighter note, I enjoy reading it all. :p

Same goes with me. I used to find it mean in early stages of my life. When I was 12 something. But now I am really thankful her to for this all.

Yep.

9. Most of us have never even tasted these biscuits but seen this box a million times..

Oddly the metal containers tend to be more useful than the cookies (which are not anything special) . People keep odds & ends in them. I have a bunch myself.

And as someone pointed out people squeeze every bit out of toothpaste and shampoo bottles because they are too lazy/forgetful to buy a new one. I have a shampoo bottle upside down. Soon I'll be pouring water in it.

8. Every single time you open the ice cream box in the fridge and find daal or alu gosht inside - kills you

so true.

2. When you know the toothpaste needs to be replaced but you really don't care and suck the life out of it
