  • Watch your mouth

    He: Aa Dekhe Zara..
    She: Kya?
    He: Watchmen
    She: and I thought you’d prefer Bips. You want to “Watchmen”
    He: very funny! So shall we go?
    She: No, I don’t want to watch a comic strip!!
    He: It’s a comic book
    She: so maybe the comic can book the tickets and watch it by himself?

    until next time, stripped of comic standing 😐

  • In tolerance

    In the large world there are those who can’t tolerate people playing cricket in their country, who can’t tolerate others celebrating Valentine’s Day, who can’t tolerate women going to pubs, who can’t tolerate intolerance and will therefore send pink chaddis, who can’t tolerate losses and will therefore distribute pink slips, who can’t tolerate being called idiots and will send legal notices, and so on.

    In the smaller world, there are those who can’t tolerate getting stuck in traffic, who can’t tolerate waiting in the queue in a multiplex ticket counter, who can’t tolerate lesser intelligence in others, who can’t tolerate not getting a call back within 5 seconds of the other person missing a call, who can’t tolerate the slowness of the elevator, who can’t tolerate the tardiness of restaurant staff and so on.

    The larger world tries to hide agendas behind the intolerance, individuals are dispensable. The smaller world tries to hide intolerance behind their daily agendas, the rest of the world is dispensable. Society that is failing the individual, or individuals who’re failing society?

    until next time, just a rant.. be tolerant 🙂

  • Master Stroke

    31. Baskin Robbins. Ice Cream. But a cold played spoilsport.
    Said he, “So, no ice cream on my birthday?”
    Said she, “Nope”
    Said he “Hmmph!! You’re acting pricey because I’m not carrying my wallet”
    Said she “Let’s put it this way. There are some things that Manu CAN’T buy, for everything else, there’s my MasterCard”

    until next time, to my credit, I let the swipe pass 😐

  • Icky Tease

    There are some days when I feel incredibly old.. or older. Its usually a landmark of some sort. Today is such a day, when I see that ‘Published Posts’ tab on my blog dashboard –  600. Oh, okay, who am I kidding? It isn’t only the blog, its that Baskin Robbins like feeling. 31!! Me!! Meh?

    until next time, born jovial 🙂

  • The lift

    He’d never tried it. But circumstances were such that he really had no alternative. He was stuck at a party that was ending, and he didn’t have a cab. He didn’t know the hosts well enough. Hers was the last car to leave. He would attempt a pick up line, just so he’d get dropped.

    until next time, careening character
