Fine, take away my points. I don't even like this game, anyway. No, you are.
Shut up. I'm going home.



Funny thing about Persian rugs when I was in Dubai. The people selling them kept saying, "Iran! Iran!" when they would show the rugs, proclaiming their authenticity as excellent rugs, I suppose. I mean, I did buy a nice runner for the upstairs hallway, and damn if it isn't an excellent, beautiful rug that feels amazing on bare feet.

I remember thinking... you know... it hasn't been called Persia for a long stinkin' time, and yet we persist to call them Persian rugs.
My culture is kinda crap sometimes. Ah well. At least I have a nice rug.

How much did you pay for it? Real Persian rugs are hand-woven, take a long time to make, and are stupid expensive. Doesn't mean it's not a nice rug, but if it wasn't expensive it's prolly not a Persian.

It's about 2.5' x 6.5' in size and I paid about $100 US for it in Dubai.

I mean... it's probably from Iran. The laws against deceiving customers in Dubai and other arab cultures are pretty steep.
