Random Stuff I discovered recently – I

“Just thought it might be interesting to put down certain things I discovered recently. I am putting the list as ‘Part I’ coz I am sure I shall keep discovering these things about me and life as  I mature (read grow old) and perhaps shall care enough to document it again some time in future as well …”

# There are a lot of things I would not buy even if I could afford them. For example, a pair of Jeans for 1300$ which I saw yesterday. Hell no, I guess I only buy cheap clothes from the street for myself.

# I don’t really miss people and family and friends more than I miss plain ‘Sambhar-Rice’.

# I shall never be as fit as I was 5 years ago. The bulging waistline shall never cease growing and I shall always have a terrible eating disorder and that I shall always be in a denial mode for the same. (Yes, people I accept I am an obese ice-creamoholic)

# I pretend to work more than I actually do. (I guess, It balances out as my office actually pretends to pay me more than it normally does)

# I really don’t like to shave my face and given a choice I would rather keep a loooong beard. (You know, natural wool to keep your chest warm)

# Pesky kids annoy me more than a thousand mosquitoes buzzing around my ears on a warm summer night. I would actually give them a nice tight one across their faces (only if their parents left them alone with me for a minute).

# I can sit with a straight face through most funerals but I can always cry watching Amitabh Bachchan die on screen. Be it Deewar, Waqt or Shakti…(Oh, yeah.. well…try watching Akshay and Amitabh starrer Waqt in one sitting). I have still not been able to convince myself to watch ‘Paa’ for the same reason.

# I can’t trust any one with the steering wheel in their hands when I am sitting in a car. If I am in a car, I’d rather be on the driving seat. (Nothing worse than being killed by someone who could not push brake pedal in time)

# Love is in the air but I guess I have always had a stuffy nose when it came to Valentine’s day. I can swear and curse at a anyone who tries selling me a Valentine’s day card. (Come on bring your gun along and let’s shoot that guy who is selling roses by the corner).

#  I learnt that turning around and looking back at a woman with a four feet wide butt is rude. Maybe they should just put her in the zoo or a circus and I could pay for a good look. (Made me wonder how her ‘stuff’ would hang out from the edge of the toilet seat.) Well, the random discovery here is that I can be mean and gross too.

# After watching ‘Ishqiya’ I actually went back and looked up if ‘Ch.. Sulphate’ was a popular term. I was so sure that it might be a term coined by students of some engineering college.

# I am not much of a curser and do not swear or abuse generally and certainly do not approve of people who do that but I did like Vidya Balan use all profanities in the movie (Ishqiya) for some inexplicable uncanny reason though.   (Weird, am I??)

# I kind of like it when people leave their comments on my posts.
