As far back as I remember. My dad always told me to hang out a lot more at picnics and go to church and weddings a lot and blah blah blah just to interact with other Assyrians so I wont get "lost". Lost as in becoming a Nakhrayah.
As you can probably guess, I dont really like going to those places. To me, friends are friends, where ever they're from.
True, it is great to have Assyrian friends, but I notice that most Assyrians are even worse than Nakhrayeh. Most of them are already lost and just go prancing around saying "i have assyrian pride!" pfft bs lol. Even if you have pride, youre still an idiot :mrgreen: . the toronto people know what im talking about. look at all those guys and girls at the picnic, its like their dressed to go to a club lol. and even worse, they dress like that too at the church. you might as well get a disco ball dropping above the priest and watch him do the "staying alive" :wink:
So my point to all this is, avn is the most interactive place full of Assyrians that ive experienced. Yes it is on the internet, but the true selves of everyone comes out because they are behind a computer. Sure its easy to hide their identity, but they still speak their personality. So what im trying to say is, i hate typical assyrians more than ever now, thanks to this website. its unbelievable how many idiots there are out there. my dad always fed it into my head (cuz i wasnt interactive with assyrians) that assyrians are different and blah blah lol, but i noticed that their like everyone else, if not worse (and no i didnt just notice this now). i always told him, everyone is human no matter what. assyrian or not, anyone can be an idiot. i guess hes just too used to his generation or something
in conclusion, i dont want to be united with most of these idiots :mrgreen:. do you?
