Yeah, I have a sense of humor! In fact, my Mom and I make a great comedy team. But alas, my mother no longer laughs at my jokes. Everything has become so serious. It's the situation that is serious. And only unbelievers make jokes about Islam.
Here's a funny story. Some guy was leading me to a conference room full of people, for some sort of job interview. He told me to shake everybody's hand and introduce myself. I'm not a politician! I loathe and avoid such situations! But since I was already there, I did what I was instructed. No, I didn't ask for money or anything at all. Anyway, the old men readily greeted me and sincerely shook my hand. Then I approached the women, quite a few of them were wearing hijabs. The women shook my hand with the tips of their fingers, and avoided eye contact. Except for one, who told me that she didn't like the smell of my hat, which was the one I always wear to the mosque. So she called the security guard who escorted me out of the room. I got into an argument with him, and he gave me a pamphlet. I had just visited the Society of Personal Hygiene. Hey, I took a shower and brushed my teeth! Sometimes I shower 4 or 5 times a day! It figures, fame is when more people want to smell you. And they will never like the smell.
