Guys do you know Nepali jokes:
" Ma sanga ta Petrol cha ni!" or "Mero ghar ma ta batti cha ni" or "Mero ghar ma ta 24 hrs khane pani aucha ni"

Translation:
" I have gasoline <ni>" or " My house has 24 hrs power supply <ni>" or " My house has continuous supply of drinking water <ni>"

Sorry but I don't know english version of word "NI"

[b-awN-dh] adj.:
Bandh, also a Nepali word meaning 'closed', is a form of protest. While often means the closing down of markets of a city for the day, but there have been instances of entire nation coming to a standstill.

Perfect. Wonderful site.

Best Nepali joke: "Maile tyo keti sanga kura gare ni!"

Translation "I totally talked to this hot girl today!"

Understood only by a select few.

It's pretty simple-
80% and above= 4
75-80= 3.75
70-75= 3.5
65-70= 3 and so on

Sabu is the hottest bocca in the making.

But I beg to differ. The best Nepali joke should rather be.

"I saw this really hot girl today!"

Hey skunk thanks dude.
That is amazing, is getting GPA so easy in A levels. Getting 80 in ISc wasn't that
difficult. I had 81 in my ISc 1 st year, screwed up, didn't study during exam preparation during second year, ended up in 73 , aggregate 77. Gave continuity to screwing up, registered for SAT and SAT 2 (3 subjects). Didn't go to any of those tests, slept all morning when there were tests taking place. So i am applying , already applied to Canadian Universities, applications under review. Your conversion gives me hope man.

And what about you? Where did u study ? got any offers till now. Doesn't anybody gets admitted in Ivies from Nepal ?

looking at the long queues at petrol pumps and gas stations i think the government should consider declaring the following holidays:

Petrol Filling Day
Diesel Filling Day
Kerosene Filling Day
LPG Buying Day (For Consumers)
LPG Filling Day (For Micros etc)

hahahahahahah like my idea?????
