Another Gay Ad
After ranting about the HCL Ad, its now time to abuse another advertisement, and the proud distinction for the same goes to the Nivea Men's Fairness Cream ad.

My salary account gives me the luxury of withdrawing cash from any ATM without any service charges, and I have managed to use that feature to my advantage on numerous occasions.

Another more innovative thing you could do when you're alone in an elevator (a sizeable one, at [...]
Jesii and Dudleys
Closely following on the heels of this post, I managed to stumble upon this awesome website - Jesus of the Week. Incredibly funny and hilarious. SO many cool Jesii listed on the site. Its amazing, the kind of sites that aren't blocked by our company. Oh Lords, thou art merciful on us. Another thing I learnt was that albino labrador dogs are [...]
