    I must have imagined my grandparents and relatives calling it hookah (huqqah) then . . . . Meh, fair enough. Every Pakistani and Indian person I know calls it shisha, all my Arab friends call it shisha, and everyone in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria (the places I've lived in) call it shisha. In my experience it's only the Americanized Arabs (the ones who grew up in the States) who say "hookah" and they get ridiculed in much the same way as an American would calling football "soccer"... Pedantry aside, I put milk in my...hookah (just sounds wrong man ) makes for a thicker and smoother smoke. I and everyone I know here calls it shisha BUT whenever I go back home I say huqqah because that is what they know it as

    "Hookah" it's a shisha and that 200 fag thing is a complete myth; the smoke gets filtered through water so, while it's not exactly good for you, it's nowhere near the equivalent of 200 cigarettes in one session. hookah and sheesha are the same thing, just depends where in the world you're from Grew up in the middle-east and no-one calls it hookah man. Not even Indian people (they came up with the word), everyone just says shisha. They call it hookah in the subcontinent
  4. Plenty of players ahead of him, reckon a loan would be best for him
  5. No chance Barca will ditch Valdes for Krul, love Timmy BUT his passing isn't a patch on Valdes, which is a big part of why Barca haven't ditched him
  6. This is going to be a painful 3 months (natively hoping we will sign a RB in January)
