Yes, Habībi; and within one generation, their proliferation will make all of those Southern Americans forget about Beirut in the Lebanese Midnorth, and concentrate only on Tyre and Sidon, because, you know: The Good Book, Man.

Oh hey! My favorite squeaky door is back! That laugh makes me smile every time. Second time this month she(?) has shown up. Interestingly, it actually adds to the act, rather than distracting from it. Edit: For anyone curious about the question mark, I actually knew a guy who laughs like that. Big fella too. Six and a half feet tall, almost as hairy as I am, and built like a brick dunny. When he loses it laughing, he starts to sound like that - like a squeaky door. Especially since he bangs on the table when he's in that state; a squeaky door rapidly opening and closing.
