Cry harder.It's racist because it depicts an Arab stereotype of a brown man wearing a jubba and a turban. A lot of Arabs would find that offensive since most of them don't even look like that.
for a second there i thought i was looking at the indian dads and sons page on facebook. genuinely one of the funniest (and nsfw) facebook pages
Heh, has to be this.![]()
sorry if it's already been done as there are a few red xs for me
Don't wanna sound like Dave Warner but if you post stuff like this on an english-language forum I think it's only fair to translate it for the rest of us.Bit contextual, but this:

PS. OLX is like eBay in India, far less sophisticated version of it though.
Yeah, this. The rules are pretty clear that everything has to be in English. I realise this isn't always practical with memes and the like so as long as you provide a translation then it's fine.. but if you don't then I'll have to get the hammer out, and that sucks when it's innocent like I presume this is.Don't wanna sound like Dave Warner but if you post stuff like this on an english-language forum I think it's only fair to translate it for the rest of us.
Makes the mods' job easier too.
lel is that you, Towns? Get a grip of yourself.Yeah, this. The rules are pretty clear that everything has to be in English.

Inappropriate ***ual references right here.Get a grip of yourself.
If we didn't think of it in that way before you suggested it, does it make your post an isr?Inappropriate ***ual references right here.
The reason it's a rule is because we don't have mods for every language. Someone could call a member an absolute ****ing **** in a post and we'd have no idea what it said. If I were Towns I'd just follow the rules to the letter and start giving out bans every time someone used a non-English word within taking context, history or intention into account at all.lel is that you, Towns? Get a grip of yourself.
you're right, that probably wasn't worth itI would have translated if it was straightforward statement rather than contextual joke. Anyway, translation is:
Pakistan wont be able to do it [1]. Sell the fireworks on OLX [2]
[1] is funny because it is based on a dialogue from Indian film that became popular
[2] is funny because OLX has the punchline "OLX pe bech de" which means "sell it on OLX
Finally, the pic is funny because it is a still from an ad by star sports which trolls Pakistan for their winless record against India in world cups: http://youtu.be/Za4qBpSQb9A
Trivialising Racism. I expected better.Cry harder.
The fact that Akmal took those selfies without coercion and proudly posted them online just boggles the mind. Amazing.
