Let’s face it, there’s nothing better than being Desi. No matter how much we want to complain or no matter how ‘uncool’ certain things can be,
WE LOVE IT.
And we’re always more than happy to poke fun at the cute little quirks we all share.
So when a Twitter user asked people ‘how desi they are?’
How desi are you?

As Pakistanis, we love having guests over and do our best to accommodate them as well as we can. And sometimes this means getting a little uncomfortable yourself.
Some were more serious than others.
