Cubicle Noise
My blanket good moods notwithstanding, I have this strong inclination to do a 'Kill Bill' style sword swooshing head decapitating thing with the morons in the next cubicle, who are shouting ALL the time! Alternatively, I wish some humans came with mute buttons, so that my team and I could work happily and properly, putting those inconsiderate [...]
Arbit Monday Evening Walk
Last evening, at 1800, I received an SMS from (Skimpy) who said that (MadMan) and he were planning to meet up at Shiok in Indiranagar, and whether I was game to join them for dinner. Feeling particularly lazy, and having had completed most of the work for the day, a significant disinclination to finish the rest of it, combined with the [...]
PhotoWalk Footage for Skimpy
Multiple things are being plugged in this post. Firstly, one more piece of mine online at Citizen Matters. Oh, and yes, it does matter! Secondly, plugging Skimpy's LJ, though it would be for most part redundant. Thirdly, plugging in the Bangalore Photowalk by itself, to get more junta along and make it huge enough to clog traffic on some sunday [...]
Stonkey Love Games
This is more arbit a post than most, and if you do want to read through and try and make sense out of it, trust me, you will not. You have been warned. A Stonkey (pronounced pretty much the same way as a donkey, but with an 'st' prefixed instead of the 'd') is a unique species of animal that is a cross between a stegosaurus and a donkey. [...]
RSS Feed Brain Fart and Other Stori s
In a bid to provide some random arbit posts post the election, I went on an LJ rampage of sorts, putting up five posts in less than an hour, once I returned home after casting my vote. I don't know for what reason, but the fourth post that I put up, which was a post related to indelible ink and requested readers for some information didn't show [...]
Dream Behaviour
I sometimes have dreams that have people in them that I know in real life. The dreams are in full colour and usually involve situations that have transpired or might eventually transpire or something totally incdedulous like being part of a Mortal Kombat like game or some such. This means that the types of dreams I have involving corporeal [...]
Election Day Diary (Part 1 – Backing the Right Candidate)
I voted today. For the second time in my life, and the first time as a tax payer. The last time I voted, I was a final year student in engineering college. Back then, I had to cast two votes, one for the parliament elections and one for the assembly elections, both of which happened at the same time, and thankfully too, for the costs involved [...]
Election Day Diary (Part 2 – Death to SMS Campaigns)
I received about four SMSes on my mobile, two from 'CONGRESS' and 'JDS' (names of the senders) respectively, imploring me to vote for the candidates they fielded in a few constituencies in South Bangalore, and this form of campaigning had me quite incensed for about twenty seconds until I deleted that message. I made a mental note to never vote [...]
