    2. It's beoble. Not people.
    3. Shai is the best drink on the planet.
    4. Dating is a no no.
    5. You better marry an Egyptian girl or Egyptian boy.
    6. You're going to get hit by a shib shib. Don't try to avoid it.
    7. When you're with your family, you reply with broken English and Arabic.
    8. You have to know Nancy 3agram, Amr Diab, and Omn Koulthom.
    9. Everytime you see your family, you've lost weight and they need to fatten you up again, why else would they feed you so much?
    10. You tan easily. You're an Arab for gods sake.
    11. Allah is used daily. Wheter in wallahi or some other form.
    12. You eat strange foods like moulukhaya and wara 3nab.
    13. You live with your parents until marriage.
    14. You always have pita bread in your house.
    15. You have to be a doctor, engineer, or a lawyer.
    16. Your family hates psychology as a profession.
    17. You're louder than you think you are.
    18. Your parents speak on the phone louder than they have to.
    19. You're always a saya3. No matter what.
    20. You're parents have a distorted sense of time where they round whatever time it is to the next hour.
