Ask a ***** brah anything....

[dosman123]

Alright misc, I've been getting shti loads of PM's from you kunts over the last few months, usually along the lines of:

"Bro can you get me a job in ***** - I'm 16 with no qualifications or experience - but can you help me out?"
"is it true you can get death penalty for sexing outside of marriage?" (srs someone actually sent me this)
"Is it true ***** is totally dry" - lulz

and so on... so I thought I'd create a thread and I will try and answer your questions as best I can..

Any other ***** brahs (Super Manlet, Russian Muscle, Bastian727 etc etc) welcome to chip in...

A bit of background on myself, I'm a British expat, been living here 5 years, I work in Finance..

Come at me...

Looking into working out in Kuwait, have you been there? If so, can you give me an honest opinion of the two and pros/cons?


Also, isn't the pay out there ridiculous compared to what you would get in Brit, brb double what I would make in the states and no taxes for under 90k!

[rizzlekicks]

What sort of salary are you earning there?

And what would you earn here in the UK for same job?





Any room for IT security recruiters brah?

[mariusjacobsen]

[Tha big kahoona]

[DrugDylan]

Is it true there is no such thing as being bankrupt there? if you have a debt and you can pay it, you serve jail time?

[supraz21]

is it actually worth living there brah? srs
rents want me to look for work there, how is the night life, people and everything???

i heard there heaps strict with women, apparently some guy got deported or something for kissing in public, not sure if serious....

[Tha big kahoona]

He rolls with them rich Emiraties. Says the money is isane!

If he rolls with them rich Emiratis, chances are he's PIITB or letting them PIITB

[Mirinmebrahs]

A friend of mine just moved there yesterday, what can he expect ? Does much actually there, or is it a bit boring ? I'm thinking of going at Christmas for a few days, and then onto somewhere else, aware me brah.

I've never been to Kuwait.. although in honesty the only other place in the middle east I would consider living is probably Qatar, which isnt far behind the UAE in terms of "development" / wealth.

You do earn considerably more here (as a western expat), part of that due to the tax benefit (I'd give nearly 40% of my salary away to the tax man in the UK), but the cost of living is considerably higher but saying that so is the standard of living.

I live comfortably - very much more so then when I was in the UK - working in a similar capacity to what I am now.

Do I know you? Used to go to emirates international school. What year were you born?

I didn't study here, I moved over here 5 years ago - were you here then?

***** brah checking in

Supp breh! where about's in the sandpit you hanging?

Is it true there is no such thing as being bankrupt there? if you have a debt and you can pay it, you serve jail time?

The whole sharia law thing re: unpaid loans / bounced cheques etc etc, is in my opinion ridiculous.. yes if you bounce a cheque you can go to jail over it, it doesn't help any of the financial institutions (banks / mortgage lenders etc) as it puts people in a position where if they cant pay they just do a runner and the debt isn't recovered.

I've got a cousin over there, performs in the big hotels, Maori cultural type performances. Groups called Te Mana.

He rolls with them rich Emiraties. Says the money is insane!

Heard of the group?

Cant say I have brah.. let me know where they're performing I shall go and check them out...
there is a certain stereo type attached to the Emiratis, everyone assumes they're all high ballers, when in fact alot of them live modestly like anywhere else, they ones that do have cash tend to have a shti load though!

is it actually worth living there brah? srs
rents want me to look for work there, how is the night life, people and everything???

I love living here and would recommend to most people.. its not for everyone though. nightlife is good, although very very pretentious, and ***** is small so you tend to see the same people out in the same places alot of the time.

the story of that couple getting deported is, they were kissing in the outdoor part of a restaurant on JBR (Jumeirah Beach Residence), an older local woman who was with her kids saw this going down and made a complaint to the police who arrested them and deported them. Generally speaking you'd have to be very unlucky for this to happen, but there are occasions it does, go to any club and you'll see people kissing etc..

he'll have a blast.. whats he doing over here?
Christmas is a good time to visit, lots going on and the weather is pretty nice to - if you wanted to spend xmas here and then do New Years somewhere else to party you should go to Beirut.

[Tha big kahoona]

Supp breh! where about's in the sandpit you hanging?

Tecom for now. Moved here from the Springs and regretting it. Work in advertising (surprise) and been here for almost 8 years

[QisGQ]

How much is your rent?

Pics of your apartment or building?

You can get by only speaking engligh?

How common are black people?

How many foreigners do you see?

[TheBedouin]

Emirati brah checking in, will chip in whenever

[mariusjacobsen]

I didn't study here, I moved over here 5 years ago - were you here then?

Nope. Moved after high school in 2002. Been back a few times after that. I might move back in a few years for work. I'll see. Enjoy the sun.

He's playing in a band while working as an intern at the University. Basically all his money will be earned from gigging and teaching English on the side. Beirut you say, why is that brah ?

[boseador]

Do you speak Arabitch?

Also, can someone with no college degree find a good job there?

What about the girls man, are they all covered up, how do you meet girls there?

[Voidofhope]

Have you been to Club Cavalli?
How much luxury cars do you see on a daily basis?

[footymate]

What is poon like over there? Both for you personally and the rest of the expats.

[Dom1992]

I have been to the UAE a couple of times but I got a question:

Can I get a hotel room with my gf if we aren't married?

Off-topic: once saw a valet scratch a range rover on another range rover at the emirates mall, was lulzy

[user110]

Very strong this, people are unaware of what those guys like to do for "fun"

[kabs13]

Lived in ***** for 10 years. Don't assume that what the media tells you is true..***** is probably the most relaxed and laid back Middle Eastern city..as long as you're not fuking or drinking on the street you'll be fine.

People who can't handle themselves and get carried away with a few drinks will obviously have trouble, just like any other place in the world.

Besides this, ***** has it all - nightlife, women, alcohol, clubs, beaches, malls. Good place to live for a few years to save up money. NO TAXES. All the girls are not covered in cloth, plenty of women from all over the world, most of them are young and looking to have fun.

If you're from the West you will enjoy it, its a completely different experience. Lots of people from Europe and America there.

Co-habitation is illegal,
you CAN, but its illegal. How likely is it? Well if a law is broken (any random law), or some1 files a complaint against you, the police will be obliged to investigate.

Punishment: ""Under Sharia law, a jail term and deportation is usually the punishment. In relation to the cases I've encountered, the punishment is a jail term of anything between one and six months, although actual time served rarely exceeds 20 days. However, the judge is obligated to deport the non-Emirati defendants if found guilty," says Syed."

People tend to forget that the UAE is governed under Sharia-law (Islamic Law)

If this is actually enforced, imagine how many potential tourists they are loosing...

Just read the article lmao ***** not even once. They are sure as hell not gonna get my business.

"If a man and a woman are spotted together in a car late at night, a police officer may pull them over and ask about their relationship. In some cases, the couple may even be taken to the police station, but rarely will such a case make it to court if no solid proof is found, suggesting the suspects had consensual sex."

is this real life...
