  1. I think World of Warcraft and Call of Duty are overrated. I hate how people place way too much importance on making money instead of finding an enjoyable, but stable career. I hate how modern day journalism has become propaganda. I hate how investigative journalism has been on the decline. I do not completely trust doctors.
  2. Although my family didn't participate in WW2, Indians faced difficult times. The British took so many resources from India, causing famines and death. Although many Indians fought for the British during WW2, Subhas Chandra Bose and his army got help from the Germans and Japanese while trying to free India from British rule. Although Bose was unsuccessful in freeing India, the British ended up losing the British Raj. The British Empire was the worst of the groups that fought in WW2.
  3. I would like to add a few things. I can trace my ancestors' origins back to the Indus Valley Civilization, which was located in the area which is now known as modern day Pakistan and the state of Gujarat. It was located near the Indus river. It was at some point in time that a community of 1000 Audichya Sahastra Brahmins migrated to Gujarat. I know that my parents descended from that community. The Indus Valley Civilization, or the Harappan Civilization, is believed to have existed from around 3300 BCE to 1300 BCE. It was a tecnologically advanced civilization with metropolitan cities like Mohenjo-Daro, its own system of mathematics, its own writing system, knowledge of engineering, and its own religion. It's really amazing to be able to trace your ancestry back to an ancient civilization.
  4. I just haven't noticed too many Indians on these forums. Perhaps I don't know many Indian bronies, if any at all. I have introduced a few Indians to the show, but I'm not sure whether they watch it regularly or not. I know there are Indians who love MLP, and perhaps there are far more than I am aware of. It all depends on personal preference. MLP has been aired in different countries and translated into different languages, but I have yet to find a Hindi dubbed theme song of MLP. If I go to BronyCon, I might end up meeting some Indian bronies. That would be awesome!
  5. I am Indian. My parents are from the state of Gujarat, located in West India. I was born and raised in the United States. It's a shame that Indians are underrepresented in the fandom, despite there being over one billion of us.
  6. I need more life experience.

      That's the spirit!

  7. My religion is Hinduism, and it is the oldest surviving religion in the world. I choose to be a Hindu because it was the religion of my ancestors. What I love about Hinduism is that it is based on various philosophies instead of rigid, fundamentalist beliefs.
  8. Since I've been eating spicy foods all my life, I can handle it. It depends on how spicy the food is. If the foods have red chili powder and green chili peppers, I'm fine with it. If the foods have jalapenos or Thai peppers, I will not be as tolerant of it.
  9. It's way too hot in here. Let me open these wings, if you don't mind.
  10. I don't really hate my self, but I do criticize myself for not having enough life experience and maturity.
  11. Just another day at the beach. Edit: Crap, I posted too late.
  12. Just to add, many English words have originated from India's languages. Here are some examples: Bungalow is derived from Bangla, which means house. Cot is derived from Khat, which means bed. Bandanna is derived from Bandhana, which means bond. Pyjama is derived from Paijaamaa, which means leg garment, which was coined by the Persian term Payjameh
