Are we inspired by other cultures or are we just mediocre?

"Ppl throw a bachelor party before their wedding in pakistan highly inspired by west.i need comments for such ppl why they do it"

 

My response:

Unfortunate, desperate, and mediocre lives need to show that they have "arrived" when they really haven't.  They need to do such things since they haven't really achieved anything else. They haven't educated themselves, or bettered themselves in any way.  All they have are senseless parties, dark glasses on their heads, designer bags, and stories of expensive travel.  Most of the time the glasses, and the bags are fake, and the travel is imaginary.

We have many "socialites" amongst us who all they do is sell their inherited properties to maintain and show off their wealthy life style.

We don't show our enriched lives to make friends.  We throw sick parties for alcoholics and scantily (if at all) dressed women to achieve a position in society.  And it works because we live among a mediocre people.

What a true picture of our society!!! This happens when when a nation detaches itself with its roots… as if one wants to try a foreign attire, not knowing how to handle it properly. We need to think over again where we  lost our traditions..OR do we actually know those??

i totally agree with u FQ. people do these thing coz they do not have any thing else good enough to do they do not have sensible education and a place among educated sensible people so they just show off they dont care about other they so busy in showing off their branded cloths, glasses, etc that have forgotten their roots that where they belong. People follow west but only in appearance, people do not follow they essence that how they behave how they work how they do daily routine things…….. that is reason west kicks our but and says that we do not have any thing of our own…….  what were we thought about living our lives we erased those memories running after this styAle thing ……..

I look at Jagger and the like and if I see a good attitude I'll admire it but I wouldn't copy their style.
