Traffic Rules. *

Heylo. So I am kinda not sure if i'm feelin sarcastic enough to do a blog post but I'm gonna give it a try.

I realised I haven't enlightened you about the traffic rules guidelines here. Now I know, hailing from Delhi, I dun exactly have the right to be commentin about the traffic here. But incase u didn notice, I did not create that traffic right? I'm not responsible for it. N some of what I'm about to say may even (or may not - I'm not sure which, cuz wel, I'm not sure bout what I'm gonna say. I make it up as I go along. Its my favourite kind. I've already told ya I'm not a planner remember?) apply to Delhi (isn it like buggin when there is so much stuff in the bracketts that you forget what the real issue was?)

So yea. We were talkin bout the traffic guidelines. A red light implies, that if u really dun mind stoppin, please do? I mean I know the long road ahead, the roar(or coughin pretty often) of your engine n the black fume sputterin vehicle you're sittin on are all are very temptingly beseechin you to not let somethin so small like the shade of a light hold u back. But incase you're not actually in a hurry, consider stoppin?

The green n the yellow lights are jus there to make it look more pretty and colourful.

The only traffic rule that applies is 2 entities may at all times be separated in space and/or time.

Unfortunately, thats a law of physics. A physical constraint. Needless to say it would have been flouted had it not been for the tiny hurdle of the fact that its impossible to flout. Infact, there were those who tried gettin around that hurdle. That led to the discovery of a phenomenon popularly known as collision, which either damaged somethin they owned, or jus hurt a lot. In either case, they realised, it wasn a hurdle, it was a big wall. You can't go around it, you can't jump over it. You just can't. Everyone is really disappointed by that revelation i think. Even in Delhi.

The divider on the road is a piece of art. It divides the road into 2, n we all know, 2 is more than 1. So it must be cooler. Of course uni-directional traffic is a fictitious term, coined by ppl, who didn understand the laws of physics wel enough. The law that everyone does love is Any space empty at an instant of time maybe occupied by an object whose volume is less than or equal to the volume of that space at that instant of time.

So basically, all of that can be condensed into 'drive so u dun damage stuff'. Ofcourse in the event of an actual collision, the guidelines will suddenly transform into laws, and support the thesis that the driver citin those laws is a follower of those laws. He will point out that the lane u were drivin in was incorrect. And he won't be talkin bout the right side of the divider. He'll be talkin bout keepin to your left while takin a right turn.

Delhi may not be as bad, but it comes close behind.

Yet I can't wait to drive. That must make me stupid.

PS- Did I tell you bout the time I asked a girl if there was a class scheduled for the next day? There was a sharp intake of breath(quite audibly) in which moment she came to terms wid the fact that a member of the male species(believed to hail from mars) had made direct contact with her. She hurriedly spoke a 'no idea', so as to not have to communicate wid the alien any further.

PPS- The guy servin me food didn know what a cold drink or thums up is. I kinda felt bad really. :S

PPPS- Oh, n i got a new reader. Givin out larger complements. Tasty. :P

PPPPS- I need to know when to stop the P's.

Hello there. Its been quite sometime now since a proper post. I wonder if I even remember how its done. Now that would be tough if only there was anything to it right? Technically, "asdjhqowie" would qualify as a post. Not an interesting one, or even comprehensible for that matter.. or any adjective other than rubbish, crap or WTF?!? (which isn't really an adjective, but it still describes stuff I suppose, so lets ignore that for now.) [**pssst - I conveniently left out the implications the word 'proper' may have had.] But well, whatever. So anyway, I just gave my IIT paper yesterday. Before the 1st paper, I was awesomely relaxed, cool and positive, which was a bit mad at a level, cuz I'd so totally ruined my life for Mr.Judgement Day here, and the least I could do was feel apprehensive and tensed, and NO, it wasn't the confidence in my preparation. It was more of that strange peace n disattachment I seem to feel when strong emotions are required. And t...

Lets Stop Lying a bit.*

So I hate lies. Even fibs. As a result to be able to do what other mortals do with the help of lies(AKA, save their ass), I perfected another art. That of finding technical loop holes. Everything you say is open to my interpretation within the bounds of reasonable assumptions, and everything I say is open to your interpretation. Its not my fault if you do not interpret my thought correctly. The main trick to this lies in being incredibly vague, non-committal, and therefore unaccountable. Here are a few ways in which you can achieve the above: Always keep adding an I guess at the end of every sentence in your conversation... I guess. Thereby it is a clear indication, that what you say is only your interpretation of the scenario, and that you can basically not be held accountable for any of the negative out comes of the mentioned situation. Man created a brilliant escape-device for words and situations. Its greatness lies in 2 things: - its versatility of usage, and its simplicity. Wha...

Story of a Mad Man

I'm a mad man. I swear to God I'm crazy. Honestly. Right now I'm talking specifically relationships wise, although that statement would probably hold true in many other scenarios too! So to start off, I'm a commitment phobe. But I'm not your normal kind of commitment phobe - the ones who are afraid of being tied down to a single person for an incredibly long time - nope, I'm not that. I'm commitment phobic cuz my mind, which is rather smart (and basically practical) knows that almost no relationship at this age will actually last through and I hate the ending part, so I'm actually a commitment phobe cuz I hate break ups. Sweet innit? ( But this is valid, only until the time that I haven't gotten into a relationship. After I get into one, I'm a girl. I also exaggerate a million times.) Now, if I hate break ups, I must tend to not let go of a relationship after a break up right? Like I must be the kind who tries to hold on? Right.. Except that'...
