hey lakshmi,

ugly or otherwise, he sure has ur full attention...
so i guess he is nto doing too bad 4 himself .. heh heh

Hey Wannabe,

Would you happen to be this fellow?..And if by some chance you are this guy...can you answer one question?....How did you get to be so hideous?...LOL@ you throwing gang signs while eating cowli..thats hardcore..

This guy is a Classic Example of the Java Visiting, Fat wallet' +ed wanna be that wonders around kathmandu CLUELESS.

They thinks it's cool. Being in a cool crowd (they think)
Ten years later, they will say "what was I wearing"

This happens to teenagers all the time.


When I get married and have children, I hope they wont follow this fad.
I hate gothic look even more.
I want my kids to be nerdy.

I happen to have an aquaintance with these individuals and trust me they aren't thugs at all. They are relatively young and they know how to respect elders.
They are indeed responsible kids and one is even serving in the US armed forces (or navy).
Flashing signs while having a phtograph done, doesn't necessarily make them thugs. YOu HAVE to know them personally before making such a condescending claim and PLEASE STOP MAKING THESE RIDICULOUS MOCKERY OF EVERYTIME YOU SEE A NEPALI'S PICTURE!!!

Judging a person by a single pic is a very careless thing to do. Their looks or expressions captured in a fraction of a second reveals nothing about their personality and attitudes. So, cool down people before dubbing someone as a thug.


However, in this pic and many other nepali pics on teh internet, I have seen people with a 'reverse-V' sign, if u like. V-sgn with the palm facing the audience means victory however the 'reverse V is a derogatory sign, at least in the UK (could be in the US too but not too sure).

Sabailai chetana bhaya.

i am with JB and DWI, they are right, and laxmi timi chai k, r you trying to get some attention from that "fellow"? did he put you down in something/someway? just curious...tara laxmi, you have a "hideous" way to take revenge hai, common you sud realize not all guys think you are hot k :)

I have never heard of the reverse V sign being derogatory in the U.S.
We use the reverse / sign...the bird...lol

Now, I know what to signal my brit co-worker. Thanks. A PhD. and 100k salary is not a license to be an asshole.

Certainly making fun of other pics is not right.
But the flip side is that if you dress like that, then everyone has preconceived notions.
Just like if a girl dresses slut-like (eg. her thong and bra showing out) you will think she is a slut.
People always initially judge by appearances first. That?s a fact jack.

brainiac, if a person is wearing something that he/she personally enjoys, then why sud we even bother. and yes, some gals like getting sulty getup, and they enjoy it too, but that certainly doesnt mean they are sults..(of coruse if its a formal place then its another story, i am talking here abt infromal places)

and you are absolutly wrong, when we judge ppl we judge them using our FIVE SENSES, which means we see, how they look, how they represent themselves, how they talk, how is their personality, all the other things we can convey thru our senses, on that short period of time. so yes, when ppl are being judged by their first appereance, we are not only judding them on what they wear, but with all the hunderds of stuffs that we can perieve thru our senses. and by the way, you are just over reacting. those stlye stolen by those guys above, have been internationally acclaimed by designers all over the world,(just watch MTV awards, or BET AWArds.. ) so you are just plain wrong to consider ppl with such looks thugs. just like you know when some american sees a nepali girl with a "phuli" they might consider them being a punk girl?? isnt that a misconception?? so hence, STEREOTYPING IS WRONG MY FREIEND :) and plus looks like you just dont have enough knowlege on these kind of stlyes, but hey , neither do i , i am just a plain guy who wears plain styles :)

LAKSHMI, you're truly sad, we all know your ass is saurab devkota from arizona whose got major issues with these so called thugs but why must you bring it to sajha and most of all pose as a GIRL .... geez.. get a life .........

WAd up hommies nice BLING BLING ( even though i dunno em) haha

My heart has been broken. "The Crying Game song in the background"
Maybe he wants to eventually become a woman, a transexual.

Confused,
You are absolutely right that Stereotyping is wrong.
BUT everyone does it.
You can?t tell me that if you see something your initial thoughts don?t enter your mind.
If not, how can we react to anything? This is a human characteristic.
If you don?t think so then why during a job interview do you need to look nice and act well behaved. It?s about first impressions.

My initial impression was that these kids are copying an Afro-urbanite style.
This style is representational of being rebellious (to family or school).
Someone actually knows them and this not the case. So, I now know better.

But, if they want other people not to think as I did, they should change their style.
I am sure they are aware of it, but in front of their peers they look cool and hip.

Everyone follows their own style which is natural but there are drawback to that.
This what I am trying to say.
