Has this ever happened to you or your spouse? What would you do in such a situation?

Liner Equality #humor

Gk & Me

For the 12th letter of April, L, here is an attempt for bringing up vanity issues in women's life. Many of us love the idea of beautifying ourselves occasionally. And for the occasional enthusiasts, sometimes there are days when we struggle hard to attain equality in the liner application on both the eyes.
Do you have such days as well?

P.S. Meanwhile, men were facing  another issue in their lives.

Perks and Costs of living with a Ph.D.

Surrounded majorly by Ph.Ds, I have decided to dedicate a post to them. Hopefully many of you would be able to relate with atleast one of them and have a good laugh over it. 

Here are the Perks and Costs of living with a Ph.D.

Fumbling through my Drawers

GK and Me

P.S. After our wedding, I became too dependent on my husband. He happily took care of my belongings when I was adjusting to new environment around. Does it happen with everyone?

Delhi Transport System...

If one doesn't have his own car and one has no metro access to the place one wants to go, here is how a common man struggles in Delhi. Following are the three memes depicting the sentiments of three 'bhaiya-drivers' and their customers:

DELHI AUTO-RICKSHAW RIDE:

Yes that is how they react!

DELHI BUS RIDE:

DELHI RICKSHAW RIDE:

They know their worth...

P.S. If an Auto-Rickshaw driver denies to go by meter, you may dial 1095 which is a Delhi traffic police number to file a complaint right there and then. It works. (Tried  and tested).

P.P.S. The first doodle is inspired by the real conversation between my  brother and his friend.

Voila Men!

1. One of my friends was waiting for red light to turn green when a girl bumped her car into his car. He got out of his car in a rage and saw a large dent on it and then looked at her. She with a embarrassed smile said sorry. His anger vanished in a flash. “It’s okay!”, He said smiling back.
She, with a little reluctance got out of car and asked him to reverse it as being a learner she wasn’t good at reversing. He reversed her car as if hypnotized. When he came back home, he called me to shared his story. I was clueless and silent for a while. Understanding my silence he told me she was pretty and hence he was helpless!

2. He was exhausted after almost an hour of running on treadmill in the gym. When he was about to step out of it, an extremely good looking girl came in. Looking at her he pushed himself more to run for another 15 minutes, in order to grab her attention. She didn’t notice him. He ended up having sprain in his legs!

3. We were waiting for a business meeting, when this friend of mine saw a very beautiful girl. After looking at her, he looked at me and said, “You know, she is my could-be…” I had a straight face

4. My brother told his friend’s story. In a restaurant he had a pathetic meal and even worse service. Determined not to pay bill for that wretched meal, in anger he called the manager. When manager came, his voice turned soft. He looked at her charming face, and softly discussed the issue. Manager apologized, and he ended up giving a good tip to waiter after paying the bill. He visited the same restaurant again several times.

5. I was out with another friend. While walking a very attractive lady crossed our way, his face turned and eyes followed like a sunflower. Coming back to his senses he realized I had noticed him, he remarked, “Such a dark lipstick she was wearing, it looks odd!” I knew that was a gaze in admiration. ***Sigh!!!

What are you waiting for?

I was thinking what exactly people wait for in their lives?  My neighbor says she most eagerly waits for her husband in the evening- but I see her in a cold feet when her maid is late by an hour- I guess more than her husband she awaits her house maid. One of my friend claims he has been waiting for a hike or a promotion. And when his phone bell rings, he cribs he needs peace of mind- so is he actually waiting for a promotion? Another guy tells me he is looking forward to get settled, but when his girl calls up & complains (she often does), color of his face changes- I wonder if he is really waiting to get settled? So somebody awaiting his promotion, somebody is waiting to buy a new house. Somebody is waiting for her/his score sheet and someone waits for a hike/promotion.

 A boy is looking for a chance to propose, on the other hand some girl is waiting for a chance to announce a breakup. A child is waiting to grow up and a man is waiting for his new job. A mother somewhere is waiting to give birth to a new life and someone is planning to abort her girl child. And then there is an old man who is tired of his illness hoping and waiting to leave the world. A bride is waiting for her wedding and a victim is waiting for his divorce. Some grown ups are eagerly waiting for the legacy to be passed on to them and a daughter is praying hard and waiting for her parents to return home safe and sound. There are some people, tired of the city heat, praying for the rains and then there are those farmers waiting for it to stop to save crops. There is a politician waiting to get into power and then there are thousands of people waiting for corrupt governance to crash.  Then there is a player waiting for a break in the national cricket team and there is a fan waiting for a match to start soon. So many different people, and so many different waits. But there must be some thing common to all.

One thing that everyone waits for all their lives? As children we look forward for Saturdays and Sundays, so that our parents are free for us. As a student we wait for the weekend to get a break from hectic school/college life and get rid of homework and assignments.

  As a professional we wait for the same to get some leisure time/to party may be a quick escape from a busy city life. As a spouse we look forward to it so we could spend quality time with each other, to gain that lost chemistry and to shed the growing burdens of progressing lives. As an elderly we wait for the weekend again to sit with our children & grandchildren who are swamped in hustle and bustle of life. So in a nutshell:

 

P.S. There can be exceptions. Need not mention that!

P.P.S. People across the globe are over-worked and that's why they wait so eagerly for a weekend all their lives. Do not burden yourself totally and take out some time for yourself too...

Take ten on Why Facebook is a Great Invention:

So its a Mark Zuckerberg's Birthday today. Let me count some Tens on Why Facebook (fb) is a great invention!!!

1. You get connected to the people you want. (even those you don't want! :P) Good connectivity is what matters!!!
2. You no more forget any birthdays and special events... Especially of the wives and girlfriends. Life has become less challenging!
3. You don't need to worry about your spouses' or children's affairs. Out of the habit of status updates and photo tags you can trace them anywhere!!!
4. Photos updates give you an idea what is missing in you own life to make it more exciting. As they say it "An idea can change your life...."

5. House wives are no more cribbing about being idle... (P.S. who the hell are you, they are busier than thou) :P
6. It works better than any other online media. Spreading the word was never so easy. (Social causes)
7. Your home business has a good number of clients without much investments on pamphlets/layouts etc.
8. Your mates are your critics/ fans/ listeners/ supporters, when before no one bothered to know your daily updates, you are now encouraged to pursue your Interests!!!
9. Because of Facebook, you have found long lost friends, relations etc.
10. Now people who didn't know the technology, computers and Internet are well informed with the basics and want to be online to stay connected....

                                        Happy Birthday Mark!

P.S. If you have any more, add on!

Strange patriotic Indians!

In India winters are the season for loads of marriages, the year ends or starts with loads of oaths and promises for future, grand celebrations with flood of glitter and glamour. The other day I was curiously discussing about a strange thing with my dad that many of us must have noticed or thought about.

Me: Papa, why do they play all kinds of strange patriotic songs in Baraat (Marriage procession) when the groom is sitting on Ghodi(mare)?

My father had a big smile on his face!

I continued, “Isn’t it strange, they play songs like ‘ye desh hai veer jawaano ka, albelo ka mastano ka’, or ‘mere desh ki dharti sona ugle, ugle heere moti’. Is the Guy going on a war front or he has a future like that of a martyr?”

Now my father was laughing, he added, “ Kar Chale hum fida, jaano tan sathiyon, Ab tumhare hawale watan sathiyo.” Further describing the relevance of these words, “The guy has no more to offer to the world, leaving all duties and responsibilities on his friends. In Short, one becomes futile.”

I was amazed, “ And what about girls?”
He was smiling; I guess I knew the answer.
**Sigh!!**
We are encouraged to Rule The One!!!

What makes you think Santa clause is a man?

This is funny.. One of the friend "Nitin" asked me
What makes you think Santa clause is a man????

I thought a lot
and my first answer, as expected was: "He has Beard and mustache..", which was discarded as he said that any woman can fake it.

And hence thought process started and next were:
1. He loiters around till late at night actually till very late at night :P
2. He Always repeats his clothes.. If he wasn't a man but a woman, you would have seen him in different attires every time :))
3 Considering his figure, a woman can never ever take that figure and roam around publicly. (as suggested by Puneet bhaiya)
4. He comes down from chimney and is not finicky about getting dirty.
5. He does his job within 8 hours meeting his deadline and never mind going to different houses in his already dirty clothes.
6. He flies his vehicle instead of driving.
7. The poses in photographs are repetitive.
8. A simple sack works to transport the presents, no need for a beautiful handbag due to the fear of getting caught by paparazzi
9. Nobody has ever heard him talking :)) :P
10. He never dye his hair. :D

I thought of some reasons as well of why he could be a woman:
a) due to her figure, she has to disguise herself and wear mustache and beard.
b) She spends a lot on presents and gifts every year.
c) the presents are known to be well wrapped.
d) We say "Merry" Christmas :P
e) She wears her belt tight to look slim!

Can't think of more.. So i guess reasons on "why Santa Clause is a man" won it!


Merry Christmas to All.....

P.s. Feel free to contribute any further reasons, if u find any! :P
