1. Only in America......can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance. 2. Only in America......are there handicap parking places in front of a skating rink. 3. Only in America......do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front. 4. Only in America......do people order double cheese burgers, large fries, and a diet Coke. 5. Only in America......do banks leave both doors to the vault open and then chain the pens to the counters. 6. Only in America......do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage. 7. Only in America......do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place. 8. Only in America......do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight. 9. Only in America......do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'. 10. Only in America......do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.

ram prasad, i dig your little cartoon, but again, in thailand..... sandsoftime-your first one was AMAZING!!! it's so true! "our guests are god. here's a cup of overly sweet tea." and i love the one about cleaning with cow dung-hilarious! "hariyo gobar le lipeko, laxmi puja gareko...." pushplay, i must point out that while swaati started the "only in america" thread, it was i, an american, who started the "only in nepal" bit. so i guess NOT "only nepalese think about writin this kind of thread" only in nepal can people eat 3 day-old maasu and not get sick, yet a bus ride makes them vomit!

Only in Nepal- Brahmins were put higher in the caste hierarchy syste, but barred from eating good food like buffalo, mushroom, eggs, and even chicken (that says caste system was a joke and should be abolished)

Palpali- you must have lived in nepal for more than 27 months, you seem to know more about Nepal than some of the nepali here. Only in nepal do people poke in and bullshit without having slightest idea about what people are talking about

only in nepal do students walk for an hour and a half to get to school, but teachers won't even walk 40 seconds to get to the classroom from the office bedrock, yeah, 27 months in palpa. before that, it was 2 and a half months in nawal-parasi. but you learn a lot in that amount of time! (if you want to...) how long have you been in the states? by the way, i dig your little people directed at pushplay. too funny! keep 'em comin.....

i only had a chance to hike up to gosaikunda lakes in the langtang region. i really was hoping to go up to annapurna base camp, as the annapurna range became very meaningful to me since i could see it from my gau. but the timing didn't work out. hard to believe in over 2 years, but it's true. wow- over a decade?!?! have you been back to nepal in that time? where in the states have you lived? i'm still thinking of more "only in nepal"s, tara ahile dimag ta ekdam khali chha oh, wait, i just got one- only in nepal will some people get a tv before a charpi!

I have been home few times. I got an oppurtunity to do Thorung La in 1999. One of the best times of my life. Will do it again at heart beat. Thinking of EBC next year. I'm out of MD (DC Suburb). You know we've must have annoyed the hell out of some people with this thread, but hell with them, been too long, its sweet to remember old times, another reason i started smell thread but didn't go much far. Only in Nepal do people put dry fruit in a refrigerator and hang eggs outside.

this thread is hilarious! i would hate to see it die....if it annoys other people, they can just stop reading it. i liked that sense of smell thread a lot too. i put in my 2 cents on that one as well. seems like there are a lot of nepalis in the dc/md area. hmmmm, maybe i should move. did you originally come over as a student? where are you from in nepal? only in nepal (at least in my area) do children, after losing a tooth, throw it over the roof of their house and pray that a mouse will come eat it
