Aabe Siyaad and His Baarbiyeeri

[Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar]

Salaan...

 

This is an old joke widely circulated at the demise of Siyaad Bare's regime. It is one of my favourite jokes.

 

Siyaad baarbiyeerigiis 'xamarigoo' uu ahaa. So one day in the last years of his regime, Aabe Siyaad went to his personal barber to have some hair cut. And this conversation took place.

 

Baarbiyeeri: Aabe Siyaad, may I ask you a question, Sir?

 

Siyaad: Yes, what is it?

 

Baarbiyeeri: What's all the excitements in the countryside?

 

Siyaad: You Xamaris never understand anything. It is just the 'regional games.' What do you think?

 

Baarbiyeeri: Oh, very interesting. Then aren't the finals going to be held in the 'capital?'

If you don't get the 'joke,' try it. And try it. And try it to re-read. Still if not, then give up.
