Why I am waging war against India!

OK, I've had enough. At first, I couldn't believe my friend Vanny when she told me that the sensitive Hindu males of India often treated their wives and other women poorly. And I couldn't believe my older Filipino-American friend when he said that Indians in the United States were sometimes arrogant toward Filipinos.
My next door neighbor is my ally, and I'm going to ask him to renounce his Indian citizenship and become my Secretary of War. He taught me about Diwali and plays with my young neighbor friend and me.
But as for the rest of India (except for those on MyLot and those I've befriended here in the US), IT'S ON! Once I've conquered India, I will call it Horsistan. Women's rights and not talking too loud on cell phones will be high on my agenda.
It all started with my downstairs Indian neighbor. "Please don't talk so loud when you play with your young friend. My baby is sleeping." Baby is sleeping? Babies can sleep through anything. And I'm having fun with someone else's baby! I was tempted to blast Bach's Toccata and Fugue in d-minor at 11 on my stereo, but I didn't.
And then it was the guy beneath me and to my right. When he argues with his girlfriend on the phone, it starts medium, and then gets louder and louder until he is shrieking at the top of his lungs. Do all Indian males sound like cats in heat when they're very angry? I actually did go down and knock on his door one night. It was too late for Bach.
And then there's the guy staying with my friend while he looks for a place of his own. He honors his friend's friend's (not a typo) privacy by stepping out of his apartment and right in front of my window (basically about four feet from my desk) while he has his incredibly loud and long cell phone conversations about God knows what. I could enjoy being a nosy neighbor, but I don't speak any of the many Indian languages. I tried Miles Davis on him, but it didn't work. He keeps right on yammering away. I'm going with Jimi Hendrix next time it happens.
I used to think of Indians as gentle and considerate people, respectful of God, balance, mindfulness, cows, and other things that I like. But living amongst them has led me to a different conclusion: they're just as nutty as Americans! Please send your donations to: The Horse for Supreme President for Life of India. Paypal is fine.

@TheHorse I loved it...no...it is not sick sense of humor..lol. It is great ..I want more Indians to come and fight it out with you...so far nobody felt any indignation..coz they know it to be true..lol
BTW that neighbor's friend's friend is coming out not to respect your neighbor's privacy but because he is unable to listen to everything in that din within that home..lol. Indians don't respect privacy...they don't understand the word..most of them. lol.

@vandana7 Well, my neighbor friend's wife and new baby are not here yet, so it's fairly quiet in my neighbor's house. The Indians at my apartment complex walk around with cell phones glued to their ears. They're as bad as Americans in that way!

@TheHorse As long as it brings a Trump sign so I can finally destroy something and not get in trouble.

@crossbones27 Heh. My cow bots will feign innocence of politics. Did you see @OneOfMany's comment? It's pretty funny. Watching Trump self-destruct has been kind of fun, but I'll be glad/relieved when the election is over.

@JudyEv It's actually just me exaggerating. Mark Twain is my favorite author, you know. I wonder if he really did say, "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story." My one neighbor really did ask me and my kid buddy to be more quiet, but it was only once. My other downstairs neighbor really did have incredibly loud arguments with his girlfriend, but it was only a couple of times a week. And my next door neighbor friend's temporary roommate really does do the loud cell phone thing right outside my window, but only once or twice a day. I hope no Indians reading this miss my irony!

@Daljinder has been appointed to my Cabinet. I'm hoping to hear from more of my Indian friends here. But then maybe they're afraid I'll have them over for dinner.

I understand your frustrations but irritating people can be of any country. ...though i see you have had a lot of bad experiences with indians...to be honest...yes.....many of us are a little loud...but a lot of such characteristics have to do with the way and place that the person might have been brought up in.

We are sorry to hear that you had to face some unpleasant experiences because of your Indian neighbours. May be their upbringing and situation was such that they could not control their emotions and unnecessarily caused trouble to you.
However, your statement that Indians are just as nutty as Americans, should not be made as a generalized statement. There are all sorts of people in each country, among them there could be some who are ill-mannered but most of them are civilized. Most of the Indians are nice and they are taught to be cultured and decent with others. We hope one or two weird experiences will not make you think that all Indians are nutty.

@TheHorse The northern do not gesture, only the southern 
I was thinking about loud people and I believe than the Filipinos are the loudest I have ever heard. There are 45000 Filipinos in Milan, where they leave is the most noisy place of the city, even worst than Chinatown.

Are you going to use a cow-bot as your secret base of operations so they won't know where you are and you can just wander around? "uh oh... things are going south. I better hide in the Cowbot!"
It could work...

@TheHorse Well aliens have been abducting people and cows for years. Now the cowbots can abduct aliens and people! And fire horn missiles, shoot lasers from their eyes, and have sonic weapons hidden in the cow bells.

@OneOfMany I'm coming up with their new ideas as well. I will lure Indians into a state of mellow bliss with the Carnatic Indian music my neighbor is showing me, and then secretly weave the McDonalds theme into my music. Indians will flock by the millions to my hastily constructed McDonalds restaurants for "veggie burgers," and the McDonads restaurauts will change into giant cow bots, each with three (or is it four?) stomachs, where they will receive "retraining." When they emerge they will cast aside their cell phones and pledge allegiance to Horsistan. Buwaahaahaa!

You could exchange the nationality for any other. Many people are just rude, doesn't matter where they're from.

That's my sense of Germans. I'm actually half-joking (or exaggerating) in this post. Most of my neighbors are Indian, and they really quiet and respectful for the most part. If they were replaced by loud, brutish Americans, I probably really would go cuckoo and want to conquer a foreign country. Or move to a secluded island.

Heh heh. A part of why I like living here (at this apartment complex) is because there are a lot of Indians here, and they tend to be quiet and respectful. Living among a bunch of young American wahoos would probably drive me nuts. I'd show my next door neighbor friend this post, but I don't want him to feel bad about his temporary roommate blabbing in my ear in front of our apartments.
