A second generation Indian's version of Ramayana

A young second generation Indian in the US was asked by his mother to
explain the significance of "Diwali" to his younger brother, this is
how he went about it.....

"So, there was a guy called 'Ram', this dude had a big cool kingdom
and people liked him. But, his step-mom, or something, was kind of a
bitch, and she forced her husband to, like, send this cool-dude, to
some national forest or something.... Since he was going, for
something like more than 10 years or so.... he decided to get his wife
and his bro along.... you know...so that they could all chill out
together. But

Dude, the forest was reeeeal scary shit... really man...they had
monkeys and devils and all the shit like that. But this macho dude,
Ram, kicked them with darts and bows and arrows... so it was coool.

But then some bad gangstar boys, some jerk called Ravan, picks up his
babe (Sita) and lures her away to his hood. And boy, our man, and also
his bro, Lax man,were reeealy pissed off... all the gods were with
him... So anyways, we won't mess with gods. So, Ram, and his bro got
an army of monkeys...

Dude, don't ask me how they trained the damn monkeys.... just go along
with me, OK...

So, Ram, Lax and their monkeys whipped this gangsta's ass in his own
hood....Anyways, by this time, their time was up in the forest... and
anyways... it gets kinda boring, you know... no TV or malls or other
stuffs. So, they decided to hitch a ride back home... and when the
people realized that the macho dude, his bro and his babe are back
home.... they thought, well, you know, at least they deserve something
nice... and they didn't have any bars or clubs in those days... so
they couldn't take them out for a drink, so they, like, decided to
smoke and stuff ... and since they also had some lamps, they lit the
lamps also...so it was pretty cooool... you know wIth all those
fireworks and puff.... Really, they even had some local band play
along with the fireworks... And, so dude, that was how, like, this
festival started.

The mother fainted.........
