Egyptians are bracing themselves for winter. Some of us can't wait for cold weather while others are dreading it.
With this hashtag الشتا_محتاج# (Winter Needs) Egyptians are discussing what it is that they need to get through the winter, and maybe even enjoy it.
1. Ma7shi and a roasted duck!
Roll up your sleeves!
2. Bunny slippers are of course a must!
"#Winter_needs: a blanket, hot chocolate, a remote control, crochet bunny slippers, and of course internet."
3. Winter is all about hibernation!
"#Winter_needs: Hibernating and not going to college or anything."
4. How about some lentil soup?
Any soup during the cold winter deserves a warm welcome!
5. Some coffee and shisha can help too
6. Food can give you all the love you need
"#Winter_needs a hug from a grilled chicken, some warmth from a ma7shi casserole, and the kindness of potatoes and meat baked in the oven!"
7. Some just need winter to stay where it is and never show up
8. We just need to shut our mouth and stop eating
Otherwise we will gain weight.
9. Or just exercise a lot
Because sooner or later the sunny season will be here, or in other words: "The season of Fadaye7!".
10. Some wished for a special type of blanket!
"Winter_needs a 21-year-old blanket, 170 cm in height and 70kg in weight!"
11. While others were straight forward and said they need to get married
12. And tweets about big hugs just took the cake!
13. On the other hand: Hugs? What nonsense!
"This weather doesn't need hugs nor any of this nonsense. It just needs some oranges, warm underpants, instant coffee and a blanket!"
14. Speaking of underpants some just wanted to thank the hero who invented them!
"Thanks man, may your thighs be warm!"
15. How about some ice cream for a change?!
Some people just enjoy freezing inside out.
