Straight up. Today they saved my life. One is offering me a job. Maybe a few are dicks, or can't be proper tourists, but the rest? Fucking amazing.

No, Indians get a bad rep on the forum. I 'm just trying to set record straight.

That's great. You're right, as long as you aren't a clerk or selling them anything they can be fun to be around.

One of my best friends is Indian. He invited me to be on his all Indian basketball team/league this spring.

This indian guy I worked with over the summer helped me a lot when I first got into "game". I had just broken up with my LTR girlfriend and kept trying to text her or argue about shit after the fact. He advised me to not text her so much, and pretty much ignore her. I reluctantly followed his advice and it worked wonders, she couldn't figure out what was going on.

You mean Indians from India or American Indians?
In case you mean the Asian dudes, I can tell that they are good people, hardworking, bright and funny. Just don't ask an Indian about the Caste System because he's going to boil.

Let's see how that job works out for you. Many Indians in India treat their employees very poorly.

Never bag Indians in general about their culture. They're really nationalistic. Avoid mentioning caste, gender and poverty. And don't say anything favorable about Pakistan haha...

There's a pretty popular saying in Thailand that I've heard on more than two occasions: "when walking down the path you see a snake and an Indian, pick up a stick and first hit an Indian and than the snake."

Indian guys, the cool ones, can be pretty damn funny. Strong contender for funniest nationality - who else rivals them? Irish, British?

For some reason there's a lot of racism between East Asians and Indians. I think it goes both ways. An asian ex of mine was dating an Indian guy and said she got a lot of hate because of it.

I wonder what Ali's going to have for us when he comes in from drinking today. I hope it's as good as the last two days

Yea, man. I'm thinking of packaging up all his posts and selling an e-book: "The Chronicles of Ali"

Someone needs to profit off of his drunken adventures.

They've got some great food. I'll give them credit on that. Indian cuisine is one of the world's great wonders. But most Indian dudes I've met are so beta that it annoys me to be around them. And then the women...don't even get me started there. They are either the culturally insulated FOB type with dots on their foreheads, or the Hindi/Bollywood princesses that try to emulate the solipsistic Persian princesses.

I heard from a lawyer in the US that his Indian client, who operated several businesses here, treated him and his customers like gold. However, he treated his Indian employees like shit, even physically abused them. So watch your back, Ali.

Yea but Ali is not Indian though so it is not applicable to him...right?
