lol err.. dont particuarly wish to answer so many q's on a public board

I dont mean what i say as an insult, alas i would be inserting myself. Just that arrogance and pride are really deep traits that lie in the memon community and it seems a shame because while memons have done some good things we have a lot of things we shouldn't be proud of....

US currency, and ones no less?! Hah! Nasserpurias crap 1000 GBP notes. We give them to the poor, since our coolness is superior to and worth more than any paper currency.

p.s. Aamir Khan's biological father is Nasserpuria Memon
