Cultural Speed Bumps


-A hair cut on the street may come with a free deep-tissue eye massage unless you specify otherwise.

-Just because there are lines on the road, doesn't mean there are lanes that get used. Again, somehow it works.

-Milk comes unrefrigerated in plastic bags. Suspicious yet delicious...as many things are here

-Did you just show up 10 minutes early for an event? Prepare to wait who-knows-how-long for things to actually start.

-Hurray! Did you just get the last seat on public transportation?
Realty: There is no "last seat" on public transit. Departure time is often determined by when the frame starts to whine.

-There are never enough small bills to go around in all of India. 10 rupee coins and bills might as well be gold. I think they stopped minting them 20 years ago.
