I have a picture of my cousin with some face paint on her face just like that. Except the flag doesn't cover half her face, but just a little part of her cheek (face-painter that my uncle asked clearly wasn't Pakistani, haha). Okay, so not really like that at all. But yeaaaah... Pakistan zindabad!

YouTube - Sohni Dharti by National Bank of Pakistan
I think we can all agree that our sohni dharti is azaad. And abaad too, in one sense of the word.

Latest from Shehzad Roy is probably more apt here.
YouTube - Shehzad Roys Laga Re From Qismat Apne Haath Mein (complete video)
"Koi naheen, koi naheen. Sab kuch Allahhh pe chor do." Ahahahhaa. How depressing.

From what I've read, FOBS (Fresh off the Boat) wear sandals because of tradition in native countries.

Is this true?
