You can spot another Turk a mile off...and you find yourself saying to your mates "yeah they're Turkish" wherever you go even if the people you're pointing out aren't. (I do this all the time in the city :) )

I can usually spot Turkish people by their actions, or the way they talk(agressive), or the way they look. :D

01-03-2008, 02:29 AM

-You talk with your guests at the door for 20-30 minutes when they are leaving (gets deteorating because I want them to leave so badly! lol... my parents friends...)
-Your parents compare you to all of their friends kids (very true! my dad always compares me with other soccer players!)
-You ask your dad a simple question and he tells you story of how he had to walk miles to get to school. (haha I hate/love it when he does this!)
- You always say "Open the light" insted of "Turn the light on". (hahahaha, in Bosnian I say "otvori svetla")

Here is some more...
If you're male, you are a futbol fanatic. It would be unthinkable for you not to support one of the major Turkish teams. By the way, you fail to understand why someone would use a bizarre word like "soccer."

# You probably own the latest model cellular telephone-- even if you don't really need one or can't afford the bills.
# Your house is well-heated in the winter, but you fry in the summer because you don't have air conditioning.
# You have your own bathroom with western-style toilet. You do have a second, Turkish-style toilet in your apartment, but you shun at the idea of using it.

01-03-2008, 02:42 AM
#You can't seriously expect to be able to transact business, or deal with the officials, without paying bribes.
#You drive on the left side of the road-- or anywhere else as necessitated by circumstance. You don't stop at red lights, even if there are people around. If you're a pedestrian, you will fearlessly and nonchalantly cross the street, anywhere you please, whether the light is green or not.
#You can easily name the capitals or the leaders of all the nations of Europe.
#If you are not understood, you would rather increase your volume than rephrase.
#If you have guests, you will serve them tea.
If you're a pedestrian, you will fearlessly and nonchalantly cross the street, anywhere you please, whether the light is green or not.
SO TRUE! I do this almost everyday and my friends always suffer heart attacks when they see me do it :lol:

You can tell if some1's Turkish just by the way they look at you, the way they walk, and the way they just talk, by the way of explaining..one very good example, Fatih Terim..
One that i have figured and is pretty obvious is, the easiest way to spot a Turk is if they are sitting like this down like this, and are very comfortable without losing balance.. And are also really the only people in the world who are comfortable sitting down like this
..go to one of those links. And yes, every Turk has a sense of "Turkishness".. If a Turkish gets upset at somthing or is angry, even the women, we all put our fingers side by side very tightly, stick out our thumb and just throw that hand in the air.
You also know if som1s Turkish if you stopped at the red light, and as soon as that light turns green u hear a horn, theyre Turkish.
You know som1s Turkish when you see a taxi door open, and cigarette smoke just blows out of the car.

And the green light thing is unbelievable, iwas in izmir and iwas at a red light, i looked at the car next to me, there werent any other cars around, it was just two lanes and we were first uknow, and the light goes green and he pushes the horn for exactly one second and steps on the gas, :lol: . It has turned into such a bad habit for so many people and taxi drivers especially.

Fry36
01-03-2008, 08:10 AM
LMAO almost all of them are true for me! Here's some I just thought of:
-You think speaking to a foreigner loudly in Turkish will make them understand what you're saying.
-Look around your house and you'll see "dantel" (little white designs) on top of various things. Mostly on TVs, dressers, and tables.
-There's no such thing as a "TV dinner."
-After a certain age, old ladies in a mile radius will try to find a potential wife for you.
-Your father was supposedly the smartest student in his class back in his days.
-Your parents are afraid that your friends will steer you to wrong things, even when you're the bad influence.
-At least 1 person smokes in your immediate family.
-Some gifted Turks can tell if it'll rain soon when they get joint pains.
-Being seen with a member of the opposite sex in your neighborhood will result in rumors about you popping up in a split second. You can thank the old ladies for this one. You can find them at strategically placed balconies around the neighborhood.
-No parking space is small enough.
-When more than 3 Turks get together, there will be football chants, even when football isn't involved.
-Chances are you have no problem drinking Raki, but if you see another Turk eating pork, you will go crazy.
-The derby on Saturday is more important than anything you can think of. A final, job interview, wedding, doctor's appointment, you name it.
-If you see tire marks on the grass separating 2 lanes, chances are it was a Turk who made that illegal U turn.
-Babies are tightly wrapped in some weird white cloth.
-There is a flat spot in the back of your head. Don't worry, most Turks have that.
-You probably still have plastic wrapping on your remote control.
-You've at least once tried writing "leblebi" with your calculator.
-There are at least 3 "kahve"s in your neighborhood where men go to play cards, okey, drink tea, and talk about politics and football.
-When you were little, you waited for your parents to go to sleep so you could watch the "Tutti Frutti" show on Show TV.
-When you played football back in the day, you were both the player and the commentator. (Del Piero aldi, Del Piero gidiyor, bir calim, kaleciyi gecti, gooool!!!)

You know ur Turkish when u have at least 1 Turk flag in your house and 1 piece of jewelry with a crescent and star on it.
You know ur Turkish when ur the only person that buys a sucuklu pide form the kebap shop.
You know ur Turkish when the NT enters a stadium and the National Anthem starts and every millimeter of your being is buzzing, every hair on your body stands and your heart is beating a thousand beats a minute and you are excited and worried at the same time (I experienced this when Turkiye played Australia in Sydney and every time i get to see a game live).

And we would use rocks as goals, and whenever a car used to come passed, we would move the rocks and then wait for the car to leave and resume, if the ball suddenly went onto a neighbours balcony (which happened to me a millions times, stupid retards kick the ball high in the air) we would have to climb the building and rescue the ball and then get chased by a hairy turkish man in his pyjamas down the road screaming 'LAN GEL BURAYA LAN!"

Listening to our anthem is something every TURK knows, every turk has it memorized, and engraved in their brain, so yes, you know you're turkish when you listen to the anthem and your spine tingles every single time.

hahaha, everyone can relate :) Iremember they didn't let us bring a soccer ball, or any other type of ball to school. So we would have to play with a coca cola can. Than after school we would go to the neighborhood, play soccer for like, 10min till som1 broke a window and spend the rest of the night running away from an old hairy guy in pajamas like you said. :lol:

I know because there is one of these for Bosnians, and it's down right hillarious. The point of these are to make you laugh, not to make you realize when you are a Turk. That would be pathetic, for anybody - that a list like this can make you realize you're a Turk. :D

We broke so many windows playing on the road. We had this lahmacun store in the street, and they had this square glass thing in the front where they kept their food for 'show'. I broke that, and my dad was sooo pissed. He paid the guy for the damage, called us (me and my brother) home.. took out a knife and carved the ball in half. Didn't stop us from playing though :D
It was 2 agonazing days untill we came up with the money to buy a new ball.

whose we? no where in SFN does it say we frown upon nationalism. I agree the point of this thread is to be funny. But just because a member decided to write something nationalistic it doesnt give u the right to threaten them with a ban. The post made is on-topic, noninsulting. There is no reason to threaten anyone with anything. The way u treat members, with no respect and just belittling them, is the perfect reason y members decide to leave.

See, you have no idea what you're talking about. Yet, again. I have to explain..
I didn't say that because of his 'sentimental post', but because he made it obvious that this is the Turkish section. He knows I'm not a Turk, therefore meaning that I don't belong here or that my opinion in this section does not matter, that's way too nationalistic for a multi-cultural board.. something I will not tolerate. And you shouldn't stand behind him, do your job! Forget the fact he's a Turk or that you're a Turk, and look at stuff objectively.
The way u treat members, with no respect and just belittling them, is the perfect reason y members decide to leave.

What makes you so sure? I may not be a Turk, but we all get a chill in the spine when we hear our own national anthem. It's not a feeling that's limited to Turks. So mentioning that, or thinking that only Turks have national pride is insulting. In a nationalistic way. Wouldn't you think?

And he was telling them "If we go around that road, and continue, it will be 2 and a half mile. But we go this way, 1mile, so it's upto you." And it was so obvious he was Turkish because of his facial expression, his hand gestures and the way he told the people who were sitting was just hilarious. And he was def. turkish because most of the guys who do that job are Turkish.

But yea, you could easily tell if som1 is Turkish or not :D iremember iwas in central park the other day, and i saw some guy on one of those bikes who like carry people around. And he was telling them "If we go around that road, and continue, it will be 2 and a half mile. But we go this way, 1mile, so it's upto you." And it was so obvious he was Turkish because of his facial expression, his hand gestures and the way he told the people who were sitting was just hilarious. And he was def. turkish because most of the guys who do that job are Turkish.
Dude its the nose..
I'm telling you.. lol
Someone asked me if I was from Turkey..
But mine isn't too big..just a little =D
Plus anyone can recognize their countrymen easily..even if they aren't talking the native language..
You can just tell by the facial gestures or other little signs..
I play that game with my dad all the time..
Cuz you know how Yugoslavia consisted of a whole bunch of countries..
Well we always play to see if the person we are looking at is Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian, Slovenian, Macedonian, or w.e
lol
I win always =D

That silent phone mostly accurate for younger peeps. :D Mine is on silent lmfao! :D The rest (elder folks) are just violent ringtoners (I get scared of my dad's ringtone) and shouters. I really don't know why they think they need to shout... On a god damn city bus.. They can talk about their family stuff shouting on the bus, mother***kers.. and you can see the women instantly start giggling and gossiping back there somewhere.
:( come on guys, stop fighting, this is supposed to be a funny thread!

Also sin, just because Australia doesn't have (many) homeless people doesn't mean that standard of living is replicated in most countries.
Turkiye is quite decent actually... Even the US has many homeless people.

Everything west of Antep..... Except Kayseri.... :D
Sin, when was the last time you've been in Turkey before this trip? If this is the first time he's been in Turkey after a long time, then I understand him. I dont know how Australia really is, but if he lives in a very nice neighborhood of Australia then goes to Turkey after a long time, he might think life standards in Turkey suck, but compared to rest of the world, I'd say Turkey is decent.
