What Did You learn Today?

[quote="Snoopz"][quote="MuslimSister"]-It’s possible to be totally attached to your car, be driving 24/7 for over a year and STILL not know you own cars registration number, engine size or what type of petrol it needs. [/quote]

my sis called my dad to ask him how to open the car bonet how shocking :shock: lol[/quote]

Lol. I was like that for a few months when I first got my car...but whats REALLY shocking with me is, I STILL dont know what kind of petrol my car takes.

I was in a petrol station in an unknown area a few weeks ago...and because I wasnt in my "usual petrol station/at my usual pump"....I had to ask the guy who was in front of me, what petrol my car takes. :?

LOL.... how could you now know??? It never occured to you to read the label on what you were pouring in at your "usual petrol station"??

The first few times when I went to fill up at a petrol station, I went to my local Sainsbury's. Luckily they had colour coding and mine was green and I didn't know the name of the fuel until a few weeks later.

Correct me if I'm wrong, there's 3 kinds of fuel: unleaded, super unleaded and diesel.

isnt there leaded aswell :? lol ive never put petrol in evaaa :shock: n ive never paid attention to the types of petrol either

Your car must be ancient then, coz they stopped making cars with no power steering ages ago.

Cars with no power steering are virtually impossible to steer when stationary.

blimey never knew it was that bad. yeh sis was saying also how karchi is so very westernised .

it is westernised

many girls i know used to reg go to late night mixed parties- :shock:

but despite how "western" they may be

that dont change how backwards they are :roll:

also coming back to my other point

it was on this trip that i got to know my daddy and fell in love with him 😃

travel makes u realise what a person is really like

usually-at home

im out all day

dads at work all day

in the evenings we all do our own thing

i realised how much my dad loves me when he used to treat me 24/7 just cos he knew how homesick i was

he even used to clean up my vomit :shock: :shock:

I learned why it is dangerous to let women have too much control over house decorating.

I have decorative hand towels in my wash rooms.

[i]Decorative[/i] hand towels.

ive never been there i kinda feel like i missed out but i duno i dont long to go there either. maybe i shud perhaps it'd make me more grateful for the things i do have and take for granted. Hubby mentions it but i said id rather use the money for a pilgrimage go back home after that.

I kinda meant before you starting puking but I did warn you about that before you left.

i think it was food poisening

i had lost my appetite there

i cudnt stand anything

i think the body just find it hard to cope with a difference in meat/diary etc

-I’ve learnt that the comment “what the hell are YOU doing for the Ummah” does not instil guilt in people but instead gets people irritated…I’m not sure if this is because of arrogance on behalf of the questioner (i.e. I’m doing all this for the Ummah and you aint doing jack all) or if this is cos people dislike the guilt trip and automatically go on defence.

-If you want to succeed in life, pass exams, be a success etc make sure you’re there to help others succeed too…this act of goodness will guarantee your own success.

-You can’t knock anything until you’ve tried it…and after you’ve tried it you can knock it as much as you want.

-Even the most expensive thing you own loses its novelty sooner or later.

-Giving is almost as enjoyable as received (Almost).

-I've learnt that some mums are evil enough to break up their own childrens marraiges.

-Its a small world, no secrets can be hidden. So making out as if your somone that your not, comes out sooner or later.

-Some people are just prone to bad luck.
