Mall Rat
People in Dubai say the strangest things. Read Time Out’s selection of the most peculiar snippets of conversation we’ve heard in Dubai. 10 Comments
Have you ever been walking past somebody in a shopping mall and been baffled by a snippet of overheard conversation? The sort of thing that makes you want to go back and ask complete strangers what it is they mean.
It happens to us here at Time Out Towers all the time. Maybe it’s just the company we keep, or maybe the world truly is becoming a confusing place, but we’re always overhearing bizarre banter in malls, offices, clubs and restaurants in Dubai.
Leave a comment in the space provided below and keep us updated of the strangest things you’ve heard and the wackiest things you’ve said. We will feature the highlights in the magazine every week.
