The Canadians – Team Yolo (You Only Live Once)
They are ciyaalka xafada (the cool kids on the block) and mooryans (gangsters) in the making. They are everyone’s friends. This group treats life as a party and Somalia as a dance floor. They usually arrive with few things – like a minor criminal record and a Mongolian scripture tattoo they got while under the influence on a night out in Toronto. It’s hard to find them talking about serious issues. Don’t mention school – they have usually dropped out of school and are sensitive discussing this subject. If you want them to unfriend you on Facebook, tag them in photos from your graduation ceremony.

They often blame the Canadian ‘system’ for their failure in school, and regularly point to Mark Zuckerberg and Steve Jobs as examples of people who succeeded in life without completing school. Team Yolo’s favourite topic of conversation is binge-drinking in Nairobi. They’re the company to keep on a weekend when anything Halaal is not on the list.

you do know that for most of our history, somali women didn't wear hijabs. the hijab is a carab cultural import. my mother grew up in somalia in the 70s and she said this definitely was the case then. plus you can look at old pictures of nomads going back to the early 1900s and many women wore their hair out.

if anything is moving away from out roots and culture, its wearing the hijab not taking it off.

I went through your posts just to familiarize myself with who I was about to respond to. I decided to go through your early posts, I think April 2014 posts and found these threads you create or respond to.

ETC(LOTS OF POST)

Just by looking at the topics you are responding to and creating there seems to be a pattern.
Are you struggling with your identity or something?

You seem to associate the hijab with arab culture. Don’t know if there is correlation or not but from posts you seem to come across as someone with identity issues.

Hmm whatever. We all have issues. If you respond . i might not. snet is time consuming. bye

The whole "my mom in the 70s wore minskirts" wasn't due to somali culture but Siyad barre marxist ideology.

Somali women in the coast, their women covered with Hiab/Jalabeeb, those who live interior used Guntino, gambo etc.

Wallahi "Hoe-den" deserves to be gassed just for her appearance/accent alone.

Gassed = amaan where I'm from I'm guessing you meant literally gassed

@thug, my greatest fear is becoming the next Sudan.
