As Egyptians, we take great pride in our ancient history. In it, we find inspiration and a sort of solace from all the setbacks we currently suffer from.
Regardless of all the challenges, and though we may have changed throughout the years, it seems our humor has remained relatively intact.
Allow us to demonstrate with a dash of modern (digital) humor a-la-ancient Egyptian!
Yalla etfaddalo.
