The discerning palette of the residents of Jhelum (Jhelumites?) can be witnessed flocking to the respected Canadian Establishment.

I have no idea how to make this joke seem less like an advert while still being funny

EDIT : They even have a “Hardees”! Pakistan is poppin off these days, they have an excellent Tekken scene and all these north american franchise locations.

EDIT2 : Come on down to Pakistan! It’s all hip happenin’ here!

    Just wanted to say thank you for posting, especially the link for the Tekken scene. It was insanely interesting to see how they play there.

      Thank you for the in depth reply. CoreA gaming has a lot of interesting videos about fighting games and the fighting game community. I made a joke about not having Tim Hortons in my country and looked up where it was available and it surprised me to see Pakistan there, and not a well known area. I like the contrast of the usual view of Pakistan being subverted by more bougie things, as until recently, Pakistan and video games have not been a very related topic, and Tim Hortons used to have a reputation of being as Canadian as poutine, so that was fun too.

      Yeah but there’s weird malls specifically to replicate western experiences, so that makes sense. This isn’t even in Islamabad or (Lahore) wherever that art uni the core a gaming vid I shared is located
