Joke site featuring excerpts of conversations as a brown guy named Hamzah tries to make his way through the world:

Now different cultures have different techniques. In the West, people are all about dates and proms and all that expensive hoohah. Not in India/Pakistan though. There you randomly get married off to some girl down the street because she has a thing for engineers. Below is a real chat transcript with a FOB who has the typical Indian/Pakistani mentality.
Hamzah: dude did you know a lot of girls love poetry ?
Fob: so what
Fob: what i can do for those
Fob: ??
Hamzah: you dont like girls ?
Fob: nop
Hamzah: so you are ... on the other team ?
Fob: what you mean
Fob: is it that necessary
Hamzah: i think you know what i mean
Fob: to have a girl
Hamzah: well yes
Hamzah: it is
Fob: i dont think so
Hamzah: why ?
Fob: it is just your thinking
Hamzah: how would you find a wife then ?
Fob: atleast there is no importance for girls in my life
Hamzah: do you like guys ?
Fob: and when you time for that you will get one
Hamzah: yo how are you gonna find a wife man
Hamzah: single in ChiCAGo man... so many oppurtunities
Fob: My mother and father are alive and they are there to find for me
Hamzah: oh you gonna arrange it up eh
Hamzah: what if they get you this really, really, really terrible woman
Fob: no worries
Hamzah: right... but like I mean imagine it though... a horrible lady owning you for the rest of your life
Hamzah: "Adeel do this! Adeel do that!"
Hamzah: can you imagine that ?
*** Fob signed off [Probably blocked me]
So the FOB doesn't know any of the horror stories of arranged marriages. Like the time a groom was sent to marry this beautiful woman in India but since he didn't know what she looked like, he married the wrong woman. Or the time the husband was unable to to communicate with his wife because he was too shy to ask what her name was. Yes, FOBs do not really see some of the many looming problems that await arranged marriage couplets.
Bahaha.
