I know this is a day late, but I had to contribute and I couldn't get myself to write this post yesterday. Anyway, I liked the style Kinzi took when she wrote her post, so I will try and use it as well. I always have to add the humorous twist to the thing, so here it is.

- Where else could you get anything you wanted if you walked into a shop and ranted like a man possessed?
- Where else would a country's national television station get the lowest audience ever?
- Where else would you find such bad customer service and quality and such rude and incompetent customer service staff?
- Where else would having a 'wasta' or not could lead to your life or death?
- Where else would you find such a wide range of socially acceptable options once you've finished school - '6ib aw handaseh'?
- Where else would you wake up in the middle of the night to the sound of a weddings gunfire?
- Where else would you use your car horn more?
- Where else would there be a national holiday because it was supposed to snow?
