Nerd or Misanthrope

Background: My current cellphone's display seems to be fried. So I basically can't access anything. Including contacts. Thus, I'm using an old phone for now, which has most of my contacts.
On receiving a text from an unknown number

Normal People:
1.Send a text saying, "Hey, I lost all my contacts, who is this?"

Me:
1.Hook up the phone without the display to my laptop.
2.Use some software to access the contacts on the phone.
3.Search for the new number.
4.Not find it.
5.Send a text saying, "Hey, I lost all my contacts, who is this?"

I would do the exact same thing! Sometimes I look up some spreadsheets/facebook messages to check for the person's number there too =P

@Sahil: I knew yours. Like I was sure, you would too you know. :P

@Mugdha: Haha, nice one.

@Psychedelic Rebel: Probably. :P

@Red Handed I think its this obsessive need to just know and predict, and know about any person you talk with. Like take you for example. I have a feeling you're 22. Altho, if I were wrong, it would be sucha fail. :P

@Sam- Nice observation... actually i will be 22 in some months. September.:D
Sam said…
Yea, I actually realized I should've known you're 21 and gonna be 22, cuz your profile does mention your zodiac.

Ah wel, I'm still learning. :P

Clouds.

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'...
