Persianian

(pronounced PERJZH - AYN - EE - EN)

A compromise between the words "Persian" and "Iraynian."

Adjective used to describe people living in the US or Europe whose parents or ancestors hail from Iran and who speak Farsi (the Persianian language).

The term was coined in order to bring unity between different schools of thought in the Persianian community on how to identify themselves.
White co-worker/classmate John: "Dude Mehrdad where are you from?"

Mehrdad: "I was born in Laguna Niguel, California but I am Persian."

John: "Like in the movie 300? But Persia doesn't exist anymore!"

Mehrdad: "My parents are from Iran. People from Iran are Persian."

John: "If you're from Iran wouldn't that make you Iranian?"

Mehrdad: "No I am Persian."

Sohrab: "You are both wrong. Mehrdad is Persianian."

John: "Ohhh. Now it all makes sense."

Mehrdad: "Okay if you guys don't mind I have to go study for my Loyola Law School finals now."

Persianality 

A word made up by a Persian Rap group called Farez

Basically a Persian with Persianality is a true Persian PIMP. someone who doesn't let a single opportunity go by
they do all they can to make it to the top and live the good life
you can see a lot of people with Persianality living in the mansions of Beverly Hills, driving S class Mercedes, Murcielagos, and Ferraris, and fucking a different hole each night
I wish I had some Persianality in my blood. That way I would be pimping in a Ferrari with 5 holes instead of cleaning toilets at McDonald's for 6 bucks an hour.

Person 1: Yo man... do u know why most Persians we see are living the good life.
Person 2: It's 'cause they've got Persionality.
Person 1: What the fuck is that?
Person 2: It's a trait seen in Persian and ONLY Persians. Persians with Persianality work hard and use their brains to make it to the top and when they're there they keep on doing what they've been doing to keep themselves there.

Persianality Disorder 

An enduring an enduring pattern of inner experience and behavior (particularly centering around bargaining) that deviates markedly from the expectations of Western Culture.
Persianality disorders are inflexible and pervasive across many situations, due in large part to the fact that such behavior is ego-syntonic (i.e. the patterns are consistent with the ego integrity of the individual) and are, therefore, perceived to be appropriate by that individual. This behavior can result in the client adopting manipulative coping skills, which may lead to personal problems that induce extreme anxiety, distress and depression others.
Diagnosis of persianality disorders can be very subjective; however, inflexible and pervasive behavioral patterns often cause serious personal and social difficulties, as well as a general functional impairment. Rigid and ongoing patterns of feeling, thinking and behavior are said to be caused by underlying belief systems centering around the idea that everything is negotiable.
