today i was walking home from work and i turned one of the many corners that i usually turn and i came across a little kid on a tricycle, so i smiled at him and said sallam to which he replied something like ' ggggghhhhannn' so i was like yeh same to you kid and carried on walking when i saw who i presumed to be his sister on a bike, she was looking me up and down (she looked to be about 6) and then to my great surprise came out with ' stupid white b***h'

astaghfurallah, i swear it took me a good 5 seconds to register what she called me, and as soon as i had i stopped walking, turned around, looked at her and said:

me: excuse me? what did you just call me?

little girl: (she so did not expect me to stop and interogate her) ummmm, uhhhhh, what?

me: you heard me, i said what did you call me?

little evil girl: ummmm i forgot your name, (what, she doesnt even know me, what the hell is i forgot your name? that so does not make sense, i know shes like 6 or something but please what kind of answer is that?)

me: what? look little girl (i know, i cant believe i actually called her little girl) i heard you say something very rude to me and i'm not happy, now tell me the truth did you swear at me?

little pathetic girl: ummmm, yeh i'm sorry ( to be honest i was impressed that she told me the truth)

me: (in a very low voice) why you little.... ok i want to ask you a question, are you muslim?

little weirdo girl: ummm yeh

me: you are? did you know that swearing is not a good thing? that little girls go to hell if they swear?

little scared girl: ummmm yeh, sorry i wont do it again

me: ok, but you should be asking god to forgive as he is the most merciful...

little girl: ok, sorry byeeeee (and cycled of to the distant never to be seen again, probably swearing to her little pathetic hearts content)

i was contemplating knocking on her parents door and confronting them with this problem, they should like feed her a ton of very chilli peppers washed down with coke, (fizz and chillis dangerous mix), i'm still perplexed as to why she would call me such a thing, and shes only like 6, whats wrong with todays kids, its situations like that that makes me scared of bringing up children in this society, subhannallah i pray that our youth are guided towards the straight path...

i'm gonna start walking around with bars of soap in the future and any kid who dares to say anything of that nature again to me i will ram the soap in there mouth and make them swallow it, weirdo kids, i never once said anything like that to any one when i was a kid and before you roll your eyes its the truth so ha....

oh yeh one more thing, just a follow on from the pepper blog on thursday, today when i sat down to eat i squashed my spoon against another pepper and the stupid thing exploded all over my face, scarf and some of my jilbab, just went plop and its insides covered me as if to say white african we love you, weird huh? but it was funny, thankfully it didnt go near my eye alhamdullilah...

i find it hard to believe tht this problem is limited to kids of today - it's all about tarbiya dude. great to hear that you are giving your eye a much needed break from harming it. what is it with you and things getting into your eyes? if i was your eye i would stage a revolt and go to a more peaceful place like Somalia!! lol! i do make myself laugh tho...

I love ur life! How do all these weird and wonderful things happen to u?
I think ETI is right - its about tarbiyyah, about teaching kids right and wrong -something this society has neglected. Mayb the girls parents tried their best, but until society as a whole makes moves towards a more moralistic outlook, little girls and boys will be influenced to do bad.
U r cursed with chillis it seems - I have never seen one explode - only u could make it do that! lol

its does have alot to do with tarbiya i agree ad but at the same time some kids are just hopeless, my eye is fine alhamdullilah, i dont know why things use it as a target game but hey i guess its one of those things, i was thinging the other day it's not fair how its just me who suffers with the peppers, if you guys were true friends you would share in the experience so i propse the next time i see you i give you guys a bit of what i had are we all in agreement, say aaaaaay...
