Breakup or patch up, fun or grief but alcohol is constant. Everyone is well aware of the fact that no one can win against a Punjabi regarding drinking.

Meeting your extended family and reliving the glorious time is something you always long for. You not only relive those golden days but also get a lot of gifts and love. Every long weekend that you get you plan to visit your Pind but alas! If you are abroad, then you only miss it.

6. The more you abuse, the stronger bond you share

Every sentence that you speak consists of MC or BC. The case is not at all that you abuse when you are frustrated but even when you are thrilled you abuse. Expressing happiness through abusive words is Punjabi's style.

7. Everything after Bullet

The bullet is like Punjab's heritage. It is a dream, its sound is a melody, and it is a very prized possession. As soon as you own a bullet your standard raises in your friend circle. You are then treated differently. 

8. Fights are normal for you

Every impossible task becomes possible with just one dialogue from your dad that is "Uthaa Main?". Dad's words are LOC. His stern look makes you a helpless puppy from a tiger.
