11 Pointless Things Lebanese People Are Obsessed With

If there’s one thing that can successfully unite Lebanese people, it is their obsession with some of the most mundane and pointless aspects of life. Here are 11 obsessions that we think are really not that serious. 1. The Lebanese constitution It’s a piece of paper that holds no value and is not followed by anyone, basically less important than toilet paper. 2. Roundabouts Literally a circle, so no points. Lebanese cities are obsessed with these pointless dowars that basically make driving feel like a theme park ride, especially in Saida. 3. The jiran Shu 7a y2oulo el jiran? shu 7a2oulo el jira?! The jiran: 4. France And not in a biased anti-colonial kind of way. 5. Immigration The way people write about this one, we’ll get to that one day, you guys are not ready… 6. Plastic bags inside plastic bags And every immigrant population thinks they innovated this but what will we actually use this strategic reserve for? Are we going to pack up the entire house in Spinneys bags? 7. That one screw that might come in handy one day How will it come in handy? How many DIY projects are you really doing, let’s stop lying to ourselves. 8. Some Lebanese actresses That have a personality equal to a screw, but we’re not naming names right now. 9. Cars We need somebody to do the stats on this, how many cars per person do we have in this country? It’s way too much. 10. Football People fainting and shooting over this? Weirdest type of hysteria around. 11. Faraya Some snow, a dumb death sport, and paying insane prices to freeze to death, why?
