Reposting the Punjabi one. Credits to CinnamonZ.

You know you’re Punjabi When...

You bargain and get in fights to get the cheapest things.
You tend to take off your shoes everywhere you go.
You call and meet up with boys or girls behind your parents back.
You hide everything from your parents.
Your phone is always on silent.
Your dad, uncle, grandpa are hardcore alcohol drinkers.
Your whole family usually eats alot of meat.
For the girls, your parents make you wear a suit everywhere you go.
For the girls... you have to stick with your mother everywhere you go, even Gurduwara.
Your parents don’t really know you talk online, such as facebook, myspace, AIM etc.
You overdress everywhere you go.
Your familes get in fights and don’t talk for 8 years.
Everyone is related to you somehow.
If you’re a girl, you do all the household chores.
If you’re a boy, your mother does everything for you.
When you have a party, instead of cooking for 100 people the food is so much it can go for like 500 people.
You fight the airlines to allow your 90lbs luggage even though its over 40lbs.
Your parents always compare you to other "good" kids.
You have to become a doctor when you get older.
Your husband hates his inlaws.
You’re willing to do bhangra anywhere you go except Gurduwara.
You see aunties in the park with their suits, sneakers and red lipstick GOSSIPING.
You pick fights with people very easily.
Gossip spreads amongst us very fast.
You cry over any little thing, to get your way out.
Everything you eat is savored in garlic, onion and tomatoes.
You recycle Wedding Gifts, Birthday Gifts and Anniversary Gifts.
You take Indian snacks anywhere it says 'No Food Allowed'
You talk for an hour at the front door when leaving someone's house.
You load up the family car with as many people as possible.
You buy and display crockery, which is never used, as it is for special occasions,which never happen.
You use grocery bags to hold garbage.
Your parents don't realize phone connections to foreign countries have improved in the last two decades, and still scream at the top of their lungs when making long distance calls.
You teach everyone swearwords in your language.
You secure your baggage with a rope.
Your parents call all your friends "Beta" whether they are Indian or not
The second you pull out of someone's driveway, your parents start talking...about them.
You keep leftover food in your fridge in as many numbers of bowls as possible.
Your kitchen shelf is full of jars, varieties of bowls and plastic utensils (got free with purchase of other stuff)
You carry a stash of your own food whenever you travel (and travel means any car ride longer than 15 minutes).
You never learn how to stand in a queue.
You can only travel if there are 5 people at least to
see you off or receive you whether you are traveling by bus, train or plane.
If she is NOT your daughter, you always take interest in knowing whose daughter has run with whose son and feel proud to spread it at the velocity of more than the speed of light.

P.S- It's the funnies not supposed to be 100% accurate so take a chill pill and don't start another fight here please. Thank you.

waise does ny one know, why we say sardarji ke 12 baj gaye..

Olden times , Surds were the warriors, and they use to attack at 12 ' Nite when every one was asleep.This is where this funda of 12bajje came.

they are the Saviour and warriors..with a big heart and big stomach to digest all the daru.

Mostly Punjabis in india have their own bar at home with 8-10 bottles of Daru.best part if some guest comes in ....oyyye daru di bottle khol oyye(open the bottle)

Also ,

best are punjabi shaadi's where u have Daru trolly *(movable bar)....moving along with Barat!

he he he ..we punjabis can be so funny sometimes...for them life is a celebration which is not complete without food, daru and dance!!
