( For those who havent read this yet!):tongue:
Probably this is how your kids would narrate the story around Diwali !!!
A young second generation Indian in the US was asked by his mother to
explain the significance of "Diwali" to his younger brother, this is how
he went about it...
" So, like this dude had, like, a big cool kingdom and people liked him.
But, like, his step-mom, or something, was kind of angry, and she forced
her husband to, like, send this cool-dude, he was Ram, to some national
forest or something... Since he was going, for like, something like more
than 10 years or so.. he decided to get his wife and his bro along... you
know...so that they could all chill out together.
But Dude, the forest was reeeeal scary crap... really man... they had
monkeys and devils and crap like that. But this dude, Ram, kicked butt
with darts and bows and arrows... so it was fine. But then some bad
gangsta boys, some jerk called Ravan, picks up his wife (Sita) and lures
her away to his hood. And boy, was our man, and also his bro, Laxman,
pissed... And you don't piss this son-of-a-gun cuz, he just kicks butt
and like... all the gods were with him...
So anyways,you don't mess with gods. So, Ram, and his bro get an army of
monkeys.. Dude, don't ask me how they trained the damn monkeys... just go
along with me, ok... so, Ram, Lax and their monkeys whip this gangsta's
butt in his own hood.
Anyways, by this time, their time's up in the forest..and anyways...it
gets kinda boring,you know... no TV or malls or crap like that. So,they
decided to hitch a ride back home... and when the people realize that our
dude, his bro and the wife are back home... they thought, well, you know,
at least they deserve something nice... and they didn't have any bars or
clubs in those days... so they couldn't take them out for a drink, so
they, like, decided to smoke and crap...and since they also had some
lamps, they lit the lamps also... so it was pretty cooool... you know
with all those fireworks... Really, they even had some local band play
along with the fireworks... and you know, what, dude, that was the very
first, no kidding.., that was the very first music-synchronized
fireworks... you know, like the 4th of July stuff, but just, more cooler
and stuff, you know. And, so dude, that was how, like, this festival
started." :rofl:
