Fun Fact: Did you know that Pakistan is actually an acronym..? Neither did I :P

The name is taken from the five regions that the British amalgamated into a new country:

Punjab, Afghania, KashmIr, Sindh and BaluchisTAN = PAKISTAN 🇵🇰

It also means "A land abounding in purity" in both Farsi and Pashto, so there is that :P

For some reason, it’s one of my least favorite countries to visit.

@SW-User I doubt you ever visited any countries.
SW-User
@quasar Doubt all you want.
quasar · 36-40, M
@SW-User you don't go out unless someone asks you to.
SW-User
@quasar Chill out and move on.
quasar · 36-40, M
@SW-User I bet you panic at everything.
SW-User
@SW-User it's practically a hellhole and there's no country which officially doesn't have warning equivalent to a ' US level 2 or level 3', for their citizens over tourism to Pakistan. It's kinda unfortunate how they ruined their own country with radicalism.
SW-User
Lol. I bet you like to imagine unreal stuff and live in your head all the time. @quasar

@SW-User another Indian.

I’d rather visit India than Pakistan. @quasar

@SW-User ye unlike you I've been to places before I judge them.
quasar · 36-40, M
@SW-User good. come visit me then.
SW-User
Unlike you I can accept that people have preferences. I wouldn’t try to shove my country down their throat. @quasar

@SW-User you only say that because of what you hear and not what you felt.

@quasar Dude. What's with this Indian thing? Your prime minister was stripped naked at US airport. They don't trust your elected govt even, what you're defending? Having a Pak visa stamped on non pak citizens passport unequivocally guarantees extreme level of scrutiny at every airport. Fix your own country's image. We don't harbour terrorists.

@Darksideinthenight2 ok I'm out it smells curry.
quasar · 36-40, M
@SW-User blah blah blah I'm Indian.
SW-User
Honestly, I’ve dealt with Pakistani people before. Lots of them seem to be rude and super hot-blooded. Also the men tend to treat women in a horrible way. Of course there are exceptions but that’s what I noticed. Also you guys make curry too. Not just Indians. I like your food though.

@SW-User I'm not a pakistani. I got triggered because you were so judgemental.
SW-User
It’s just my observations and preferences. So yeah I could’ve been judgmental there, but it’s not a blind judgment. It’s based on my experiences. Still, to be fair, I left room for exceptions. @quasar
quasar · 36-40, M
@SW-User I like that.
quasar · 36-40, M
@SW-User I hope you do visit pakistan sometime lmao.
SW-User
Who knows. Maybe someday I will – and It might overturn my perspective. You can never be 100% sure in life 🤷🏽‍♀️@quasar

@SW-User i hope I'd go there sometime too. I really don't care about people. It's about the country and its culture. And definitely food OMG.
