Offend please

How effortlessly can we find offence in random things? We have a beautiful skill.
But if you feel you're not very good at it, you're on the right page.

"India is my country. All Indians are my brothers and sisters..."
"What do you mean YOUR country? Are you saying it's not my country? You are anti-national!"

"I really like my new MacBook"
"Some people cannot afford the fruit apple, and all you can think of is your Apple MacBook?
How insensitive? Do you even feel bad for them?"
"Of course I do"
"How is that going to help them? You feeling bad is not going to solve their problem"

"The music is so loud. Hate it"
"You disgust me. How dare you disrespect Goddess Saraswati?"
"Dude, you're listening to Badshah"

"Do you accept money via PayTM?"
"You think I don't know what PayTM is? You think I don't know how to use the Internet? You trying to say I have black money?"

"I'm so not a morning person"
"You're calling me an idiot for waking up early. Aren't you? Do you know the importance of waking up early? You're disrespecting the Sun. You're disrespecting God. I will never understand your generation."

"I think I've lost interest in Cricket?"
"You are anti-national"

"This traffic on Baner road is really bad sometimes"
"Yeh road tere baap ka hai? The world does not revolve around you"

"Do you need some help?"
"You think you're better than me?"

"I visited Udaipur last month. It's a lovely city"
"What's wrong with Jodhpur?"

"There's a tree plantation activity next week. You want to join?"
"Why are you asking me? I'm not responsible for global warming"

"The weather in Pune is unbearable these days"
"Go to Pakistan. Anti-National!"

India for a Girl

    Time:- 12 a.m.     Venue:- An empty street, India.     Scene:- A young girl and a less-than-innocent looking stranger(a man), walking down the road. In what  way is the girl expected to act in such a situation? She has no idea who the person is, whether he’s drunk, depressed, pissed with the world or just some random guy with no bad intension. Something really unfortunate and disturbing happened in Guwahati last week, which was nothing less than a catastrophe. This made me think, “What is India for a girl?” or “What a girl should expect from a stranger constantly staring at her?” These questions do have answers. And these answers will put India in the dark shadow of hypocrisy yet again. A certain part of an Indian will still say, “It was the girl’s mistake.. She shouldn’t have been there at that time”, while overlooking the 30 odd people who molested her. Why is that, people first talk about ‘the way she was dressed’ or ‘where she was’ or ‘what was the time’? Shouldn'

"Inauspicious" to be a widow?

One of these days, I'm going to write a book full of random rules on how to live. I'll be a bit cryptic, to make it seem meaningful and serious. All rules will be in the form of complex poetry. Because, why not? And I'm going to bury the book a long way under the ground. A hundred years from now, some one will find this book. They'll decipher the rules. They'll sing the songs. They'll make some more around it. They'll create another religion. More chaos. Sounds fun right? Or sadist? Last week, I came across this tweet-   "According to the Skanda Purana , widows are more inauspicious than all other inauspicious things " My ignorance led me to assume that "Skanda Purana" is a person, a politician, I guessed. It's actually some religious text. Either way, I'm not surprised with a statement as outrageous as this. I don't have the whole context of it and I'm least interested in knowing more about it. What I know for sure is

Cheese Moves.. Move On

     Being in an engineering college, I have regular assignments, vivas & tests apart from fever and headache. My new assignment is to write a ‘Book Review’ on something inspirational. Someone recommended me a book called ‘Who Moved My Cheese’ by Spencer Johnson, and I need to thank him for that. I’ve never been much into reading, so reading a book and writing a review didn’t really excite me. Books like ‘The Power of Positive Thinking’ and ‘You can Win’ occupy some part of my book shelf, but I’ve always preferred to read a ‘Five Point Someone’.      But this book was an exception. ‘Cheese’ in this story is like a metaphor for something which we possess, or something which we desire for. It’s a story about Sniff and Scurry, the two mice, and two little men, Hem and Haw. Finding cheese is their only goal in life. But nothing is permanent. Life puts before us a number of twists, and it depends on us, whether to consider these twists to be like obstacles or like opportunities. S
