I was just carrying TP by hand, so I offered to push her extra cart. She called me her bodyguard. I ascended immediately to heaven.

minus-squareReyali@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months agoI’m friends with two siblings who frequently refer to any/all of their friends as ‘habibi’ and it makes me feel warm fuzzies every time.
minus-squaremasterofn001@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months agoWe have Syrian, Iraqi, and others who have recently come to our country. (When I say we and our I also mean them) My fence is covered in grape leaves from about April to September. I get lots of people around the neighbourhood that come by to take them. Last year one old dude came and started picking them. I got up to say hello. He spoke no English. He said some things and made some gestures and I kinda got the gist. Went inside got him some water and a cloth. He drank and wiped his hands. Shook my hand and said habibi. I almost cried.
