We all like to think we’re different, but more often than not we’re much more similar than we think. Here’s 14 things that every Lebanese person has in their home.
1. The biscuit-tin-turned-sewing-box
If there are biscuits in there, you should be worried.
2. Fridge magnets from every country
Even ones your family has never even been close to.
3. Infinity plastic bag
The plastic bag inside the plastic bag inside the plastic bag inside the plastic bag inside the plastic bag…
4. Way too many remotes
This one’s for the TV, this one’s for the receiver, this one’s the backup tv, this one we got 2 years ago when the first one stopped working but now it doesn’t work, this one was for our TV from 12 years ago…
5. Very old family pictures
The family has not been able to sit together for a single pic in over 10 years, so we have to do with what we have.
6. Books no one has read
How did they even get here?
7. A quirky clock
A live love laugh clock is undefeated.
8. Boxes of old scratched CDs
These once held the greatest culture had to offer. Now they sit and collect dust in a box no one opens.
9. And even older media devices
Old TVs, old stereos, never throw them away, you can sell them as vintage items in 50 years.
10. Old clothes used as cleaning rags
My school uniform from when I was 7? Yeah it just made the kitchen spotless.
11.The half cut lemon in the fridge
Much tales and myths have been spouted about this mythical lemon, how did it get cut in half? Who put it there? How long has it been? No one knows.
12. And all the fruits outside the fridge
These magnets are actually cute.
13. Hideous souvenirs in the living room and salon from weddings and births of random people.
Don’t mention it to her if you’re trying to have a nice day.
14. That one thing your mom can’t throw away
Don’t mention it to her if you’re trying to have a nice day.
