Like how to bargain for a pocket knife in the medina made in China by little slave children.
Or that that pocket knife would break the same day. So 20 Dirhams probably wasn't such a good deal after all.
That eating with your hands won't get you yelled at in some places. Well, only if you use your right hand. Because your left hand is Berber toilet paper.
Speaking of which, parasites are just nature's colonic.
They know that 90% of Arabic songs will contain the phrase yellah habibi (come here sweetheart). Which makes knowing the lyrics for car sing-a-longs on long road trips really easy.
The girls have mastered the squat potty without getting a drop on their pants. And, yes I'm extremely proud of that. They can also go pee efficiently in public on the side of the road without drippage. But now I'm just bragging...
However, I'm usure the boys will ever learn to flush the toilet after they've made a deposit.
They can convert currency to know if they have enough allowance to buy something and the patience to wait weeks to get it. But, they also know to have low expectations that they will ever receive it because it will either be lost in the mail or the mail room will refuse it because it contains a lithium battery.
Not to be close to a French school at noon on a Wednesday or a Mosque near noon on a Friday.
Fish eye balls are edible. As are goat's balls.
Staring isn't impolite everywhere in the world.
And why the hell would you bless anyone after they sneeze?
French French and Moroccan French are indeed NOT the same language. And if they have a French teacher who is from France, that it is impossible for them to get an "A".
Seat belts are only for people who think they have control over their own destiny.
And it's perfectly normal for a Moroccan traffic accident to be solved in a slap and spit fight.
Or that it isn't morally reprehensible to buy bootleg dvds unless the guy who sold you these illegal products lied and told you they were in English.
That life's big question may really be why do they sell tissues at every intersection when you can simply snot rocket? Who buys them?
Or is it why do Moroccans eat couscous on Fridays?
