Punjus/Gultis and NRIs

There is some mysterious aura that surrounds an NRI, this automatically puts him at a position much superior to others. This aura surrounds all NRIs but is particularly strong around people from the USA. To all the normal people who don’t recognize this aura there are a few pointers that will help you out.
-The accent, be it 15 days to 15 years everyone will have the accent(telugu/hindi/Punju..even these end up getting the accent)
-The mineral water.. somehow the 20 years of resistance just vanishes in 2 months
-The old Navy and A&F tees.(be careful this is only applicable when the above conditions are met)
-The constant cribbing about the heat, pollution and the dust in India even if the NRI stays in Mexico

The funny part is the automatic superiority that is associated to them .. Not that the people there are inferior or something for a lot of people are doing quite well. But people back home treat some dumbass filling gas/running a motel/data entry/it consultant at the same level as some guy who is actually doing something of value there. The worst part is that they treat the dumb ass way better than someone doing really well in India. The Indian marriage market is a strong indicator for this treatment .. For eg.
Boy is in US *****
Boy in US and fills Gas *****
Boy in I Bank in US *****
Boy in US and a software Consultant **********
Boy in India Nil
Boy in India works for Satyam ***
Boy works for Satyam has been to US for project *******
Boy in I bank in India Nil(Nahiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii)

Funny incident that happened recently at a cousins marriage. People involved are me
Mrs T(A Punjabi Lady), Cuz(Cousin from the US who is actually a stud but for Mrs T it doesn’t matter for he is from the US)
Scene: Mrs T , Cuz and me were having a conversation about where her daughter wants to go for MBA, and she has 2 years of experience(supposedly in banking.. methinks she worked in some bank) Mrs T thinks both me and Cuz are from the US (me putting on fake accent learnt recently)

Mrs T : Where are you working beta?
Cuz: Chicago
Me: Bombay
Mrs T: Your company sent you to India to work.
Me: No, I am based in Bombay
Mrs T : Which part of the US is your family from ?
Me: I am from Hyd but work in Mumbai.
……………………………………………..(Silence followed by totally ignoring poor me and talking just to Cuz)

Disclaimer: There are two kinds of people.. People already in the US, People who are waiting to get their visa to the US and giving people in the US gaalis.. I belong to the second kind … :P
I think I should cut down on the disclaimers too Ibankish for me.
