Why you shouldn’t believe everything you come across on the net
My livejournal hasn't been my first blog. This has always been dedicated arbit post and rant space, and frankly, the investments involved in putting up posts on this haven't always been been significant or noteworthy enough. However, Al Jaljira has been around for longer, and is the space on which I make dedicated posts only on occasion when I [...]
The Cons of Caller Tunes
Cell phones are a necessary evil. Though dependency on one is not something to be proud of, it happens nevertheless, and a lot of time out of each day is spent on the phone, either calling, messaging, receiving calls or engaging in various other features and functionalities that it provides the end user with. However, apart from the usual [...]
Headgear Rants (Helmets and Bandanas)
What is the deal with junta wearing bandanas on their head before they put their helmet on? I have tried to find some relevant reason for this action, but from where I stand and perceive things, this whole setup reeks ominously of herd mentality.

It literally would be the last chance for the dispensers of justice to ensure that the [...]

Anyone who has been to Mumbai (even in transit) and hasn't eaten vada pav deserves do die a painful death. There is enough and more info about this [...]
India’s Hottest
One of the crappiest things that I have come across in recent times on TV has been an ad on Channel V, about how your photographs will be featured on one of their shows if you upload it onto the site - Indiashottest.in or something. This will spur the mall rats (who don't go there for the sole purpose of visiting the bookstores) and the other [...]
Groomsman
Societal faux pas and inability to fit into a crowd notwithstanding, here is another bullet-point I can add to my set of life-experiences, a little less than two years down the line. I am being elected to be a "Groomsman" by the Groom Sankar(and the Bride,Neerada, as I later found out), though I would've preferred being the Best Man. But seeing [...]
