Barbershop
I recently had one of my worst barbershop experiences and my asymmetrical beard is a testament to that. Somewhere in between, I had the following conversation after having established 5 minutes ago that I couldn’t speak Tamil:
Barber (in Hindi): So, where are you from?
Me (in Hindi): I am from Goa
Barber (in Hindi): Oh…
Barber (in Hindi): So, dont they speak Tamil in Goa?
Me: 😳
Me (slowly, in Hindi): Uhh, noThe worst part? The dude wasn’t even Tamil himself, he was talking to the other barbers there in a Bhojpuri-Hindi hybrid.
