Bro B: Where do you guys live?
Date: Abbasiyyah.
Me: Sayyeda Zainab.
Bro B: What?! Sayyeda Zainab?! Dangerous! Egypt is not safe with the demonstratioms and all. It's far from here, why are you here? Next time don't come to this restaurant anymore!
Me: Whyyyy? (Cmon this is my first time here and I'm no longer welcomed?)
Bro A: The Egyptians are not good people nowadays.
