10 Annoying Things This Indian Aunty Says

We've all met them, had our cheeks pulled by them, tried to run away from them, and failed to live up to their great expectations. We're talking about the omnipotent and omnipresent auntyji - and not just any auntyji but a special kind.

Gossip Girl Blair Waldorf may have ruled the Upper East Side but this auntyji from India could have given her a run for her money - true story.

The auntyji we're talking about (given that in India, every woman is an aunty to someone, at some point in her life), but that one particular sort, to be found in every mohalla/khandaan - the Queen Bee, who has the best and most amount of gossip, will dispense words of advice at the drop of a hat and thinks it's her birth right (and responsibility) to set everyone right.

So now that we've described the type for you, let's discuss the things they do that make us want to take a machete and blow some brains out. And we mean ours, of course. Culture Machine's Being Indian has compiled a list of the '10 most annoying things Indian aunties say and they very aptly include some amusing points. Some of them are:-the aunty's need (and legitimate right) to know our monthly income - which is never enough
-sexual preference - with a good amount of hehes and hawhaws
-questions on our career choice - Engineer ya Doctor nahi toh kuch bhi nahi
-if you have a boyfriend/girlfriend or not - if you do, it's a juicy piece of gossip
-discuss your weight - make it an issue
-how their kids are best in the world - mera beta mahan only
-fashion advice - enough said
-etc - some more etc

Watch this hilarious video, tell us if you have some points to share and then get that auntyji to get up and dance. If we had made this video, though, we certainly wouldn't have chosen Kirron Kher as a representative aunty - she's far from being one.
