I HATE how Lebanese radio stations practice censorship!

The Lebanese version of the song is “Take a take a pi pi picta for me”.

While the original song says “Take a Dirty picta for me”!

I don’t get why stations do this.

Is sayin “dirty” really that offensive?

i wont put it nicely as Sean, i think that what you did was wrong, stupid, and irresponsible? not to mention dangerous!
It was completely your fault, you’re the one who blocked his way intentionally. what would have happened if u didn’t? he would have went pass, and u got angry for 4 sec and that was it. But NO, you had to block his way, and then put urself in a dangerous situation, having to hear abusive language.
Not only that, u swore at him, knowing it will enrage him.

to all those who commented saying ur not in the wrong, and good on u… i’d love to hear u pple saying that if, God forbid, he turned out to be a total maniac, smashed her windows, and gave her a black eye. ( u’d be an idiot to think that stuff like that doesn’t happen…)

i greater person is the one who assesses the situation, avoids confrontation, and walks away.

i’m glad it all went well afterwards, just be careful next time and use ur brains… it’s not ur job to police pple.

We are a 3rd world country no matter how hard we try to portray it as civilized.

plus the traffic is what’s people have these nervous breakdowns…. imagine staying in ur car for 2 hours barely moving…

it’s all messed up…. but ur friend is right… not because you stood up for ur right or whatever… but if he had assaulted you… it would’ve been ugly… and for what? traffic…. not worth it… just close ur windows… AC on… high music… and let him spit as much as he want… and try not to swear hehehhehe I would’ve madee you swallowed your teeth if you tell me ” …. Immak” hahahahha (kidding)… but no seriously, dont swear at ppl… it will only fuel the fire….

cheers
Sean

I don’t think you asked for it and I definitely don’t think it’s your fault. People like this should learn their lesson. Unfortunately his IQ is probably so low that he went off and complained to his friends about how “Women can’t drive”. Grrrr.

If we do let them get away with this kinda crap- doesn’t that mean that we have all become enablers?
–
Absolutely.

You did the right thing.

There is a distinct lack of respect for law and often common courtesy in Lebanon. Drivers being a good example. Standing in line for tickets being another.
