what they fail to realize is that falafel isn't really a persian food. it's an arab and israeli thing.

hey, wait, persians and arabs ain't the same thing???! they don't eat the same jesus-hating grub? well sheeeee-it!

this is the same subtle cultural understanding that got us into the "whoa! thars both sunnis and shias in iraq and this is gettin complicated" debacle.

nice work, boys and girls. it's great that we've got 12 year olds at the helm.

When our walking tax deduction was 12 very recently, she could tell you a thousand times more about the rapper of the week than about any military maneuver underway.

The GF just made us falafel last night. The mix makes it pretty easy. Just add water, let it sit 15 minutes, and fry

I'd love to try that but it seems like a pain. The mixes are pretty darn good already.

Cheap too, especially when I get it by the pound from the bulk section of my health food store.

the project didn’t last long. It was torpedoed by the head of the FBI’s criminal investigations division

We go to Mamoun's on MacDougal st in the village for falafels... they're like two bucks and they're really good. It's a short walk from the 9th st and 6th ave stop, and it's right near Washington Square Park.

One of my friends was eating there in the summer and ran into Kal Penn. Kal Penn said it's his favorite falafel place. He's the stereotypical 'indian college student' actor from like Harold and Kumar.

actually that was a good point. i mean, why not bother to pronounce someone's name the right way? golly, if i called you /kuh-rice/ it would suck, perhaps causing you to become highly irritated and whack me in the back of the head with a frozen bowl of macaroni salad.

Season 6 of "24"

The US is under siege by terrorist suicide bombings. Muslim extremist have claimed responsibility.

Meanwhile, in the suburbs of LA, the libs-next-door befriend a ME neighbor whose father has been arrested by the FBI as a suspect in the attacks. What the neighbors don't know is that the ME family is part of a sleeper cell, and the kid a member of it.

The teenage lib looks out his livingroom window to see an evil conservative striding up Ahmed's driveway to threaten him to go back to where he came from. So lib-boy runs over next door to intervene.

When he arrives, he sees Ahmed with a gun in his hand standing over the dead evil conservative. He starts to stammer "Wha...wha...what...happened.... Ahmed?"

Ahmed turns the gun on lib-boy and snarls "It's not Ahmed. It's pronounced Ackhmed."


You, however, can call me what you want. Just don't call me late for supper. ;)

It's really irritating when even your friends don't say your name right. It happens to me all the time. Especially irritating when people go out of their way to properly pronounce names originally from other languages, but for ones from our own, they say don't even bother asking how to say it, or remembering once they have been informed.

Moral of the story: Don't trust your Middle Eastern neighbors, they're probably a sleeper cell!

What an incredibly dumb show.
