• Faster, honey, faster….

    Is that what its come to now…. love, that is? the romantics are an endangered species… gone are the days of roses and chocolates and the slow romance. from what i see around, its gone faster and faster and faster until its now come down to speed dating…
    no, i dont want to do a moral policing act here, wouldnt do good to sound like a prude and tarnish the otherwise hep nature of this blog…hehe.. so let me just write about it… I thought that it was merely a Valentine Day phenomenon, or in the case of the next weekend, a hangover, but apparently not.. because i have been informed of at least 3 separate events happening over this weekend and the next, and whats more, these are sponsored by brands ranging from chewing gum to fashion brands…
    Since i havent been attending any, i’m guessing the agenda based on what i have seen in movies, and heard from others.. rows of guys/girls sitting in a fashion similar to their regular office cubicle existence and getting around 10-15 minutes with someone from the opposite gender before he/she moves on to the next… me thinks thats exactlywhat is needed after the pressures of a ‘perform or perish’ existence at work… but i guess to each their own…
    You think they have the speed daters have a customised lingo of sorts? like say, “Take off your clothes” means remove your inhibitions an be open
    “Don’t worry, i have protection” means that the person is well settled in life, has a good bank balance and is insured etc
    But like i said, to each their own, for there might be people having fun when their partner at speed dating reacts to their attempts to make an impression by looking at the watch and saying, “faster, honey, faster, if you do it well, i just might come with you !! “
    until next time, that title was a fast one 🙂

  • Star Track

    Lights, camera, action……cut. Thats exactly what happened to the poor fed-ex. After she got too stressed with the lights, and had had enough of the paparazzzi cameras following her, she decided to take some action,and went in for a cut, without knowing that a Rajnikant would happen to her… Bald and the beautiful, i say!!

    Speaking of hair, the guy whose career did a 180 after the haircut, is now lying in a hospital bed, after collapsing during a stage show rehearsal. Reminds me of a song in one of his old hairy films- “lagi, lagi hain yeh dil ki lagi”…

    The heroine of that particular film is now all set to play Sita in Raj Kumar Santoshi’s epic project, with her real life husband playing Ramkara,er, Ram. Since i think it would have been better to have a nysa looking ram and sita, and since i dont particularly like either of them, all i shall say is Fool aur Kaante..


    until next time, yup, lazy kiya re!!

  • Beeping Bips

    On Koffee with Karan, John had this to say about Priyanka
    “I’ve worked with her, and i never heard her say no to anything”

    anything, John? hmmm

    until next time, spilling the beans?

  • Big P

    Big B for President.
    And they blame South Indians for making chief ministers out of actors.

    until next time, India Poisoned !!

  • How green was my valley

    The old Bangaloreans, whenever i meet any of them, have a common complaint.. that there used to be a lot of greenery in Bangalore until a few years back, and now there is a distinct lack of it, thanks to bangalore becoming a tech hub, and the mass influx..
    i beg to differ though, i think the greenery has just changed its form, these days i see it in mainly two forms – one, as dollars flowing in due to the technopolis tag, and two, the look on my face wheni see the techies spending it 😉

    until next time, matter has multiple personalities 🙂
