Real Indians of Genius

International Interns present Real Indians of Genius

Real Indians of Genius…

Today we salute you, Mr. Ignorant and Lazy Indian Shopkeeper.

Mr. Ignorant and Lazy Indian Shopkeeper…

Thanks to you, foreign customers have no need to learn Hindi, since you hardly notice when they walk into your store anyway.

What you sayin’ to me?

Even though words like chocolate and chicken are the same in both languages, you still don’t understand what we want to buy.

…mmm, it’s so sweet…

Go ahead and say that you’re out of brown sugar. They’ll point to it on the shelf behind you anyway.

…that’s a good brand…

So kick your feet up on the cot you’ve got behind the counter, O Guardian of Groceries, and feel confident knowing that without you, white people in India would have no trouble buying shampoo. No trouble at all.

Mr. Ignorant and Lazy Indian Shopkeeper!

International Interns, Palampur, Himachal Pradesh, India.
