Welcome to my blog: "The Daily Struggles of a Farax" Hope you enjoy your visit. You may wonder what a Farax is. Well, I have explored this in detail and wrote the following guide to knowing/identifying a Farax:
Protecting the Common Somali FARAX
The common Somali male, species "Farax Somalinus Africanus"
is in danger. Their numbers have been decimated in the 30 year old
Somali conflict. Thousands of Faraxs were forced to flee the Somali
civil war and poured out of the country into exile.There are four common Farax family groups:1. Taxiile Farax
- The largest Farax group. When not driving his taxi, Taxiile Farax
tends to gather with other members of his family in the local
donut/Somali restaurant. Taxiile Farax migrate to their feeding grounds
at dawn and dusk. Being nocturnal creatures, taxiile faraxs are most
activity between 8pm to 6am (due to driving their vehicles). You
may catch taxiile farax on any given weekend after being forced to take
a cab (for lack of a vehicle or indulging too much). In the presence of
the Taxiile Farax, one must be guarded about his or her behavior or
risk being thrown out of the taxi. 2. Akhwaan Farax –
A distinct family of Taxiile Farax. This family can be spotted by their
long manes and Capri pants. Large congregations of akhwaan faraxs
gather outside the local masjid every Friday. The Akhwan Farax numbers
have grown as more faraxs from other family groups migrate into this
tight knit community. The best place to spot an Akhwaan Farax is either
at the masjid or your local Dahabshiil. When approaching this type of farax, women folk are advised not to look them in the eye. 3. Gaalified Farax
– The most westernized branch of the Farax family. These faraxs have
adopted/assimilated into their host societies. You can spot them
wearing western clothes and often have gaalified names such Moe (for
Mohamed). This group is the most arrogant of the Faraxs especially
those with post-high school degrees (arrogance increases with the
degree). The best places to spot the Gaalified Farax is in your local
watering hole (bar) or club. DO NOT under any circumstances talk to the
Gaalified Farax in SOMALI, as it will elicit hostility in him due to
his attempt to hide his Somali origins. 4. Badiye Farax – Cultural conservatives who continue to act like they live in Somalia.
These faraxs have rejected all things western except for cell phones,
cable, public assistance and PALTALK. Favorite past times of these
badiye faraxs are to gather around at coffee shops to engage in an age
old custom, "FADHI KU DIIRIR" It is an ancient
Somali debate art form that makes HARDBALL look soft where the debating
groups engage in verbal duels. WARNING: DO NOT try to engage the Badiye
Farax in any debate as he will verbally thrash and humiliate you. This report has been compiled to promote understanding between Faraxs and their communities.
