What Palestinian cause?

No, Hamas cause , BinLaden cause , Taliban cause and the cause of every shit that wants to destroy the Western world!

[Get Real!]

Oh here’s another one…

Charlies think they’re contributing to the Cypriot tourist economy while enjoying free accommodation, free meals and a free car to move around in from friends and relatives!

[Get Real!]

GR refuses to remember that right after 74, half the pay of the recently made refugees and the other diaspora cypriots was being mailed to cyprus to get the country on its feet again, It doesnt matter that every other month vast amounts of donations go to candidates in foreign countries in the name of Cyprus....How many cypriot owned restaurants around the world have held functions to gather money to give to these people again in the name of Cyprus.

How many times were letters sent to different newspapers to blunt the edge of all the Turkey supporters...countless

Thanks, you’ve reminded me of another one…

The Cypriot paid income tax to the RoC all his working life whereas the Charlie had sent a £100 donation in 1974 and still can’t forget it! To this day some are known to calculate the interest over 35 years and wondering what else they could’ve done with that money!

The Cypriot Vs The Charlie…

The Cypriot thinks he can win affection and respect with charcoaled meat and fruit preserved in syrup. The Charlie has been born, raised and educated in the west, knows how the Anglo-Saxon world/mind works. And it isn't like that.

The Cypriot writes emotional rants to the press/politicians about how he's a victim who lost his home in 1974 and that it's not fair. The Charlie writes incisive letters to the press/politicians, putting them on the back foot and embarrassing them into addressing sloppy wording in relation to Cyprus.

The Cypriot thinks that because he has some kind of tenuous connection to the ancient Greek world, people in the west will be impressed and show deference. The Charlie realises the west doesn't give a shit; that anyone with dark looks combined with a heavy accent is to be humoured and politely patronised.

The Cypriot thinks he's being cultured and intellectual when he refers to ancient mythology in any given conversation. The Charlie realises this is embarrassing, cretinous and self-obsessed.

The Cypriot thinks an association with Greece is something to shout about. The Charlie realises that, in the west's eyes, modern Greece is a total basket-case and that credibility is greatly diminished by feigning any form of association.

The Cypriot thinks that if he's appointed himself the chairman/leader of any kind of association, he's some kind of big-shot - even if he's the only person in it. The Charlie rolls his eyes up at this stupidity.

The Cypriot has deluded himself into thinking Charlies can speak fluent Greek, even the second and third generations, and therefore insists on talking in Greek to them. The Charlie realises that speaking Greek is the Cypriot's defence mechanism, because as soon as the conversation reverts to English, the inarticulate Cypriot is at a clear disadvantage.

The Cypriot thinks he can circumvent procedures, policies, rules and regulations by making a quick phone call to the boss. The Charlie realises that using 'ta mesa' creates nothing but a mess-a.

The Cypriot asks, "Don't you know who I am?". The Charlie replies, "No".

The Cypriot asks, "Which village was your father from?" The Charlie replies, "What the fuck difference does it make?"

Malapapa, teaches the Charlies how to get their own back instead of whining like typical Brits!

The Charlies will have a good piss up at The Carob Tree in London this time next week with their genuine Cypriot brothers. The Cypriots who couldn't make it blame their parents for not paying for their air fare to attend.

GR I know of a Cypriot gentleman who propped up his daughter's life until the day he died, he even instigated and paid for her divorce. She was 65 when he passed away, she is completely lost without him.

There's worse...

I know a guy (55-ish) who convinced his elderly mom (from Kornos) to transfer her little house over to him so he could use it as collateral for his business or something like that, and he ended up throwing her out and renting it! She had to move in with another of her children!

Or the Cypriot who applauds Christofias visit to Cuba, and then laments and complains that the usa isnt doing enough to put pressure on
Turkey. Since the Cypriot is so self reliant and independent, to pick his nose in public he has to remove the nose piercing and turn of their ipod,,,
