1. We smoke a lot
2. We cannot go to the loo without the morning nicotine shot.
3. A square meal does not necessarily mean MACHER JHOL AAR BHAAT. Though we eat it on most occasions.
4. We are different from Bangladeshis!!! West Bengal is a big state in India.
5. We love DADA and MITHUN DA. They are IMMORTALS!!!
6. We do not believe in ARRANGED MARRIAGES! However, some of us fatally overwhelm to MA's pressure.
7. We have a thing for FOOTBALL. Does not matter if it's MOHAN BAGAN or MANCHESTER UNITED.
8. Not all the literary works are the gift of RABINDRANATH TAGORE. There are many other veterans as well, though he is the father of all!
9. We prefer saucering issues of national interest- locally jargoned as ADDA.
10. We DRINK heavily...often accompanied by BABA and JETHU.
11. We are also very HORNY and have an insatiable sexual appetite.
12. Last but not the least. We are intellectually stimulated, so BONGS ROCK!!!!!...
Every true Bong will agree with the statements made above. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome...they will be incorporated!!!

They are weird.....
They are culturally inclined...Or ...are they??
@Durjoy
Thanks for the suggestions. I really appreciate that.
@Sowmya
Indeed! They are bizarre. And they also have high affinity for the culture. :)
I agree with most of your observations, o great one! I wish my wife would understand my great need for nicotine, especially the morning dose!
Bongs r not everything u have said but they r some r some of the things... U forgot the keo karpin and the gamchha... also the inherent need of matchmaking during pujos... u forgot pujo... aami bangali, so i wud know... Loved the thing abt not being bangladeshi though :)
@Aparajita
Or perhaps, elaborating more the Diet, which is as important as Robindro Shongeet.
There's nothing that a Bong can't eat. However, protein preferred over other food groups.
The largest source of protein for us is fish, then meat, and then mishti (sweets) made from milk.
More than fish itself, it is the knowledge and exchange of opinions of fish which is coveted and enjoyed.
The young Bengali though invariably always has Farex, Lactogen and Waterbury's Compound.
Was hoping to meet you at the indiblogger do... maybe some other time :-)
Sure thing! Actually my primary intention was to hog some free calorific Pizzas, rather than contributing to the cause. ;)
So, as you had mentioned, may be some other time. :)
Cheers!
