Have fun?

You do know that you are in Saudi Arabia, don't you?

aticus

Welcome to home of fun...
Depending on your fast enter to list (many responses tonight), you will be chart breaking serial expat soon when you will become familiar with KSA.. I can see that you will join to my Project..

aticus,

WHAT did you just say??  :huh:

lol

Since you are in khobar either lady or luck or ladyluck hits you will get fun otherwise you might be hitted especially by modren marur ----- Hope u understand what i mean --- be strong in mind not only in your nick name ----

No problem of being new to ask ameture questions but be decent when u are in public forum.

WHAT are you talking about?  He said nothing indecent.. and besides, just because we're in KSA doesn't mean we have to buy into the mentality so prevalent here. 

Did you know that for many years, in the USA, the supreme court judges have been trying to define what is 'obscene.'  They haven't been able to do it because the consensus is that 'obscene' is different things to different people. 

I would venture that 'indecent' is, as well. 

Comments, as always, are welcome :)

I have to agree with the Cat on that last post.

I also am terribly confused by sweetchoice's inferences from the OP.  Fun is different for different people.

My idea of fun varies from day to day, moment to moment, person to person...dream to dream...I could go on and on and on...

sweetchoice, I hope you aren't setting yourself up to be the Mutawa of our little community here.  That would be most unpleasant.

MisterStretch:  you read my mind with your 'mutawa' comment.

MisterStretch

Great minds think alike, I guess.

I hate narrow-minded people...maybe I have a mission here on this forum.

sweetchoice

come on guys ----- if u think that fun can be any form of joy . then it has to be mentined specific.

yes i am kinda of MUTAWA for myself not for others... I wish to have disciplined life but not expect the same from others

No offense, but who are you to tell anybody what they have to do? You seem to be the only person having a difficult time with his use of the word 'fun.'

I am coming to Jeddah in March and I am going to have fun! I always have fun, just try to stop me :D Having said that, I am under no delusions that life is different in the KSA, that is where some of the fun comes in. I love exploring other cultures and traditions.I can't wait to check out the food, the diving, the desert and the language, customs etc. This, for me is what life is all about. You can't kill my fun, not possible.

Cheers!!!
