The Tissue Paper Trail
The title of this post is referring to precisely what you might've inferred by now - the tissue paper trail. This is one more of those A-level prankster ideas that can give you cheap thrills but will, at the same time, not have the requisite harmful repercussions that an A level prank will have in general. The idea is to go to a particular [...]
Eye Gear
It is an acknowledged fact of life that northie womans who wear glasses look hot. Basically, on a personal level, women that wear glasses look hot in any case considering the fact that people like me associate intelligence with being hot and glasses go a long way in contributing towards it. This brings us to the fundamental grouse that most [...]
Over the Hill and Far Away

Underrated Politeness
A trip to BTM layout to meet my friends and put band practise led to another situation worth documenting, to serve as a reminder that decent and polite behaviour is not a big deal, by the looks of it. As I was walking towards my friend's house, I was accosted by an entire group of people who claimed they were from Aurangabad, and their belongings [...]
Wazaaaaaap Gaurav!
A new year, a new band I joined to put bass duties, and this post has resulted as a direct consequence of that. Just so you know, this is not a music specific post, and is something that I found profoundly funny as a direct consequence of the sheer absurdity of the situation. The guitarist of the band had, on previous occasion seen me address [...]
