17 Ways A Typical Lebanese Man “B Fashekh”

Ah, Lebanese men. The gift that keeps on giving.

1. They name-drop their favorite wazeer as their dad’s best friend.

“3ammo Nouhad deyman ken 3inna 3al ghada.”

2. They drop 3 grand on a table at a club.

Then under-tip the waiter by 500%.

3. They’ll get on their phone and loudly discuss their $500,000 pending deal within earshot.

4. They carry two phones.

Without even knowing how embarrassing it is.

And of course, it is captioned “nothin like family”. Good one.

6. They’ll babysit their niece/nephew for 20 minutes and take around 600 photos for Instagram.

8. They’ll insist to pay for all the girls on the table.

“Yalla shabeb ta3o no2som el bill. Suzy inti zee7i min hon.”
