Agreed, average looks.

She may not be the prettiest girl in the world, but she is definitely not average.

Average woman is barely if at all good looking.

Lol! If this is considered "average" where they are, I'm packing up and moving there!

For a while, I had a neighbor across the hall who was from India. She would come knocking on my door, asking me to help her move some furniture, or whatever. I eventually figured out she just wanted someone to talk to (and talk she did!)

She was here on a dependent visa so she couldn't work, so she was really bored. One day her husband came home while we were talking (her talking, and talking, me listening...), so I met him Cool guy, working in the tech field.

After that, she stopped knocking on my door. He probably told her to stay away from me, even though he didn't have anything to worry about. He was better looking than me, made more money than me, and he was already married to her!

Nothing was going on, other than her talking my ears off. It was kind of a relief when she stopped. But she was cute.

Probably from northern India and a Punjabi or with Punjabi roots. I’m from there and often get mistaken for Italian or South American. My wife is also from there and a beautiful blonde.

They’re all over the hill by the time they hit 35. This isn’t race specific.

We had a small girl here but after blowing the leaves off the lawn we had to pull the pump from the koi pond and there were frogs hibernating there - they do not like to be awakened from hibernation, they are sluggish and annoyed.

In the immortal words of Laz “I’d hit it’’.

She's more than just "hit-able". The girl is beautiful, and has smarts.

"Chhillar was born to Jat family in Haryana. Her father, Dr. Mitra Basu Chhillar, is a scientist at the Defence Research and Development Organisation, while her mother, Dr. Neelam Chhillar, is an associate professor and department head of neurochemistry at the Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences.[1]

Chhillar studied at St. Thomas' School in New Delhi, and is pursuing a medical degree at the Bhagat Phool Singh Government Medical College for Women in Sonipat.[2][3]"

“The entire British empire was built by squandering India’s wealth and destroying their culture.”

Britain vastly improved India’s culture:

1) Destroyed the Muslim Mughal empire. It is a plus to destroy a Muslim empire.

2) Severely weakened the Hindu culture which led to bizarre inhumane acts like sati and the murders committed by the Thuggee. It would be best for India if Hinduism were to disappear and be replaced with Christianity.

3) Britain gave a system of law and government which was entirely unknown in the history of India but which has proved to be incredibly successful in promoting individual rights, safeguarding freedom, driving the economy and modern science.

4) There was NO modern medicine or any cures for serious disease in India before the British arrived. Britain changed that.

5) The only reason why India’s GDP was so high in 1700 was because it had many of the exotic goods foreigners wanted and were willing to pay extravagantly for. One hundred and fifty years later with colonialism in full swing in Africa, and Asia, India was no longer the only source for some of those exotic goods and the industrial revolution was happening in those countries where there were engineers, education, roads, canals, and railways - which meant largely not in India.

Be careful of making too many assumptions based on bookend numbers provided by Angus Maddison.

I think it’s a riddle ... and it’s going to drive me crazy for the rest of the day.

There was no modern medicine in Britain when they invaded India in the 1600s.

Be careful what you believe. England didn’t do any favors.

"You on the right thread?"

After 1/2 dozen Budweisers, he makes perfect sense to me.
