A little nothing ~ Satire


While everyday there are reports being published about selfie being a ‘psychological disease’, someone seems to be going around the world, across the seven seas, taking selfies with biggie-counterparts of other countries. Guess who?
 
On the other hand, there is someone who went on a secret hiatus to some foreign country and presumably coming back after having learnt yoga (for sitting in padmasana with farmers), kalaripayattu (to learn the fine art of balancing the eyes and trying not to squint) , how to talk sensibly in the parliament and vadra, vadra.. err vagera* vagera.
What the latter doesn’t realize is “once a dumba$$, always a dumba$$” (Used my friend’s one-liner here without permission, btw).
 
A mockery of a show! Well, yes, I am talking about the IPL. I am not a pessimist but Sherry pa ji is pushing the limits! If a game gets cancelled due to rain, play the damn serial ‘Sooryavansham’, we watch it tirelessly every time you telecast it after all!
 
When it is that time of the year when we thank the gods and goodness’ for the rains, they make us sing “Rain rain go away”, only to watch Kozli illegally romance Ashushkha :P We'd rather watch Shivanee the anchor as she sports her cute smile.

Phew! That was my try at ‘satire' and I am already tired! :D I didn’t have any clue what to write when I clicked on ‘New Post’ . Well, NaMo gave a good kick start! :)
 
Hope you liked it, folks! :)


* vagera (hindi) – etcetera

  2. It's difficult to mock people without knowing the full picture. But it's a lot of fun, I agree :)

A life without pencil erasers?

This morning, I got a good dose of philosophy from the newspaper. It isn’t very often that you get to read unique articles and this particular one definitely made my Friday morning a thoughtful one. It was the ‘World View’ column with the title “Pencil Erasers may be the ‘devil’” that caught my attention. It got me thinking about the process of unlearning taught to us at school. A lot of questions popped up. Why do we hide our mistakes? Why isn’t it okay to make mistakes? Why are we taught to make up for a mistake? Why aren’t we taught to look at the mistake and learn from it? Why do we erase a mistake? Why aren’t we being naturally ourselves? Why do we need an eraser? The last question is what instigated me to write this post. What if Edward Nairne had not invented an eraser by accident? What if we were never introduced to the concept of the eraser at school! I should admit that the little wad of rubber that undoes all the mistakes made by your mighty pencil is inde...

Diet Horror Story

Food in the time of dieting. This is exactly like love in the time of Cholera, only, here, the love is for food. Your cravings are at an all-time high, you surprisingly become more lazy, you feel anxious when eating out, you are looking up every diet plan there is in the planet, your best friend suddenly looks thinner, your weighing machine needs repair and perhaps you are even subconsciously praying to god to help you shed those extra luggage. It is not because you have started eating a pea less than before that your body feels so weird when you start a diet. No. If you have any of these symptoms , trust me, your body has nothing to do with it. I am not a diet expert or an aspiring model, but I know what I am talking about. I have been through this outrageously pathetic stage of my life during my adolescence when I felt that cringing need to diet when some really jobless people called me a pumpkin, literally. I was too young to reason with myself. I started this tailored diet pl...

Make Up and Me (Not Me)

They say people who don't know to dance have two left feet. Although, I might have two left feet myself, what is more interesting is I might actually have two left hands. Okay, I understand that's funny but here is why: If you are a girl or a boy or a boy who looks like a girl, you would probably know that it is a thing now to have a makeup blog or vlog or youtube channel in your name. I bumped into this world of cosmetics, beauty blogs and tutorials only a few months ago. For those who don't know about it, let me tell you, it is a crazy, ruthless and unbelievable world. Picture sourced from Google Heard of these? Snail slime masks, Placenta hair masks, Seaweed bathing creams, Microblading.... and endless other such insane stuff. These are insane but quite popular among beauty enthusiasts and they even swear by the benefits of such products. These are otherwise cringe-worthy products in my world. I use gramflour+tumeric face mask, Coconut oil hair mask and  a...
