Do you know?

This joke was sent by one of my friend... Not all of them are true but I think it's quiet funny to make you smile today :) YOU KNOW YOU ARE TURKISH WHEN................ There is a sale on any item, you buy 100 of them. You make coffee in a saucepan. You never buy bin bags but use your saved grocery bags for it. You put your clothes in suitcases instead of wardrobes. Your mother has a minor disagreement with her sister and doesn’t talk to her for 10 years. You call an older person you've never met before "uncle", "aunty" or abi. You hide everything from your parents. Your phone is always on silent. Your mother does everything for you if you are male. You do all the housework and cooking if you are female. Your relatives alone could populate a small city. Everyone is a family friend, or somehow related to you. You always try moving out of home but always end up returning. You love kebabs and eating!!! Instead of cooking a meal for 4 you cook for 10 ? When you have a dinner party there is enough food to last for the next 2 months. You fight over who pays the dinner bill.Y You always say "open the light" instead of "turn the light on." You secure your luggage with a rope. You get very upset when the airline refuses to accept your luggage which is just 80 lbs overweight. You walk out of customs with your trolley, at the airport, when you see all 25 members of your family who have come to pick you up. You ask your dad a simple question and he tells you story of how he had to walk miles to get to school. You are always taking off and putting on your shoes wherever you go. Your mum seems to think her future lies at the bottom of a little coffee cup, where you would find the dried up coffee after she has turned the cup upside down. Your parents compare you to all of their friends' kids. And….. No one ever seems to call ahead of time to say they are coming over for a visit.
