My Landlord ,Who is now my Best friend.

A. Handled the meth heads above famously.

B. filled 3 of the empty apartments here with young single women.(too young for incog) But not too young to watch. ;)  ;)

C. has now rented the apartment next to me with a younger Afghan refugee woman.


I need to know how to say a few Afghan salutations and questions.

For Instance.

"Welcome to my Harem"

"Something is wrong with my Bed can you check it?"

"Was that an earthquake or was it me?"

"isn't it time for you to open the Gas station"?

"what Hummus again ?"

and finally

"Allah doesn't want you on your knees I do"

Bwahahah I know "That's Racist"!!

Just kidding guy's it will be nice to have a quiet neighbor for a change.

and of course I will forever be a Gentleman.

So was it really a meth house?

Why don't I have your luck?

I have two Afghan refugee living with me. They're great cooks, so I'm not complaining, but 'eye candy' they are not.

Language is a huge barrier for them. We use Google Translate, English to Pashto. It seems to work okay if the sentences are simple.

The difficulty, I assume especially with females, is reading comprehension. Many Afghan lack basic reading skills.

That is a good and difficult thing you are doing.
I cannot help you with a translator, but you have my utmost respect

Cookin'no, mostly prep work (smashin pills) and using.

You could actually time the delivery.

They ransacked my vehicle, But I keep it empty. tore up the center console.

The business end has moved and they are partying elsewhere. ;D

If the females have male relatives close, be careful. They have so.e pretty strict cultural rules that could be a problem for them.

Historically education for males was memorizing verses from the Koran.
Females were not deemed worthy of education. In fact the Taliban would burn schools
and murder girls if they dared to attend school.

Some progress was made during the US involvement, but since the Biden Bugout, it's back to burning and murdering

There were no males in attendance when she toured the apartment.

And I would never attempt to make someone uncomfortable in their own home.

Cept the meth heads. I owe them no convenience. as they have robbed me of mine.

She could not be safer than my own daughter.

Us old guys are unpredictable!! ;D

Absolutely true.

You gotta be extra careful because some of these folks come from a culture where 'honor killings' are a real thing.  :yes:
