Unusual Indians, culinary-wise:

 Iyengars who don't like filter coffee
Gujjus who don't like bhel puri
Bengalis who don't like fish
Tambrams who don't like curd rice
Kashmiris who don't like kahva
Punjabis who don't like sarson ka saag
Malayalis  who don't like tea (chaaya to be precise)

I know at least one person in each of the above categories....

If we were to apply the above in the reverse manner, it would mean I can qualify for Iyengars, Gujjus, Tambrams and Malayalis.

Cool :)

yes, cool..because you would wind up calling yourself an Indian.

Lovely userpic! Where on earth do all you LJ-ers find these, I wonder...

Well, you join a couple of icon communities and borrow permissable icons.

Of course, most of the icons are not worth a second glance, but one does find the occasional diamond in the rough.

(In fact, I credit the authors of all icons I borrow on my [ userpics page ]).

could you let me know one or two of these "icon communities"?

Well, some of the communities I frequent are: [info]_comic_icons_, [info]calnhobbes_icon, [info]creepy_icons, [info]cricket_icons, [info]icon_voodoo, [info]iconsforlj, [info]nani_gifs, [info]peaces_icons, [info]quality_icons.

There are a lot more out there. You can use the LJ search feature ] to hunt for more.

wahoo, thanks for that icon-community monsoon shower!

I am certainly not that punjabi. Who can resist 'ma ke haath se bana hua sarso ka saag'!!! Not me for sure.

I didnt know we were so closely associated with bhel puri. It is not really that huge a craze amongst the gujjus in gujarat. Bhel puri is more for gujjus from Mumbai...it is always interesting to see how preceptions and lived realities often don't exactly match.

I am ununsual and toe by line 4.
