Why is everyone so down in Dubai? You would think you all had it so hard here. Been here 5 days and barely seen any smiles yet alone people laughing. Is it that bad here?

by the way, hi everyone

Stan i am just wondering where you come from. Compared to the US i would say yes this place does lack smiles. But compared to Europe dubai is a heaven of smiles lol

Welcome Stan,

I don't know I get a lot of smiles, the kinda smile someone would give just as they're F'ing you over

Hi Stan, Welcome to Dubai

I have never noticed that their is a lack of smiles here, if I smile I almost always will get one in return, maybe thats because I have a funny face

Stan i get smiled at all the time
And I smile too but mostly at the same se><.

I think it's against the culture to smile at a member of the se>< that you don't know?

i always smile and my name means : joy so with a happy face and spirit will get u anywhere and u get a bunch of smiles return ... talking about lack of smiles have u ever travelled to jordan ??No offense any one

I think if one smiles, it brings smiles to them too. If one has "smile wrinkles" then I like them instantly.......shows they are a happy person (most of the time).

If you want a smile, give a smile

try smiling at the women in the black ninja costumes over here.
ull get a good response

probably might get a piece of paper tossed at you .. and if u wanna know wats written in those papers they toss.. then make sure u smile at them so called ninja's

I agree with Scarlet.... it could be a culture thing. I smile whenever I feel like doing so but only to other girls. Bec. its like flirting if I smile to guys I dont know of ...isnt it?

A scientific study discovered that the amount of smiles is inversely proportional to the price of beer.

lol which study is that?? the Eastenders's vic study?

Hahahahahaha,

Don't drink beer much, when I do I smile a lot.

1. alcohol kills your brain cells so there is a possibility that you might end up as a retard nut case
2. you realise you are left with no money when your credit is rejected at the supermarket.
3. you waste precious time which could have been used for something more entertaining and productive.
4. your health suffers, skin loses its sheen and shine
5. you may end up in jail. most crimes happen when people are drunk.
6. it could be the last time you are driving your car.
7. it could destroy relatioships
8. you age quickly
9. lastly in some cases your performance can suffer

so why drink at the first place?
better drink milk and honey...

I think Stan must be frequenting the wrong kind of places, like Dubai Prison

There is nothing better than a tube or night bus on a Fri/Sat night in London Town. Everyone jammed on singing songs and fooling around. I loved it!!! And who smiles at 7am on their way to work on a Monday morning when it's chucking it down outside and your soaked right through?!? Jeez... it's depressing just thinking about it!

I prefer the London Underground any day in comparison with SZR or SDR in the morning or evening.

I agree Sage! Although I do love that song by the Doctors about the Underground. Tickles me every time!!!
