Hey! great post there. You know what, I was thinking Murphy would resort to making both the remote-control and the remote-control-locator invisible 
and that is why no-one is bothered to invent one..

yea, possible, but what if we fix the remote locator to the tv??
-
patent it!

great review man, makes me want to see it.
-
Man, what’s up? You are scaring me.
The truth is people really like to hate something inorder to prevent hating themselves. I just pity them. But it is hard not to hate them back. -respect,

Boy ! I did know teenagers dont respect parents, but this it too much.
-
This post is extremely interesting, since this is first hand experience. Keep writing.

@ phoenix :
Man, cool down.
If you have a *single* close friend, then it does not matter even if a thousand sobs hate you or call you a freak.
We are with you.-respect,
Karram@ bookseeker :
Hatred also comes from desire. If a person A desires something, and B has it in loads, it would not be surprising to find A hating B. -

couldn’t get it here
hopefully it’ll be there in your indiranagar library in bangalore -
Isn’t this West-of-Turkey system better, in a way?
Indian parents (well, the un-westernized ones) expect the infinitude of love that they pour on their offspring to flow back. And when that doesn’t happen and only neglect is returned, there is pain, despair, loneliness, and all the other miserable things in this world. But a western father will not spend sleepless nights if his teenage daughter tells him “fuck off” – he doesn’t have unrealistic expectations! -
Hey dude, why do you need such a label?
You are what you are, and AFAIK you always stick to what you are. Not everybody is bold enough to do that!
We mortals have an undue passion for labels. We carry a totally meaningless label called “name ” lifelong. We know that it is meaningless and we keep searching for better ones, but in vain.-love,

Touching post mate. Was a bit busy with other things and hence read this only today.
Mind you, you are not alone . But trust me, that feeling will vanish. Nothing lasts for ever, and this despondence, pain, and sadness will vanish soon.
Just keep your mind and heart open.. Someone.. something will come along and will fill the void. -

I agree wholeheartedly… When a talkative female grabs you, its extremely tough to escape.

You said it right. It must be the hormones. -

Living in sillicon vally and being an Indianised or Hinduised is wrong? When one earns for USA is it customary to shift his loyality to America or Christianity or Atheism? Do Americans working in the Middle East for monarchs there became Arabised?

Nice Post. Diverse beliefs are responsible for good things as well. I enjoy carnatic music and western. (Atleast in the case of Carnatic, Bhakti movement played a huge part)

Never new this side of you !
On reading the post, I felt like its me talking.
You know what, it never goes away, never ever. It just hides there in one of those dark corners of your brain and one stimulation, one instance and everything rushes back again …one is doomed and theres nothing he can do about it nothing with capital N.
You’ve someone to identify with here

Touching..

“Donating” a kid ? Despicable. Taking away their life and their future without thinking even a lil bit.

So are you gonna visit the ashram?
Curious what her answer would have been.
Poor girl. -
What makes you so approachable to the ladies man?

Great post. Everything in it, even the trademark hyphen
-
“I took more and more risks and more and more times my luck ran out” – No, I think Fortuna has stood by you and made sure that every time you went home in one piece.
Anyway, nice read..
Long live you, your mule and your hyphenoglyphics! -
and sadly this kind of “donations” are _still_ not uncommon in xian families of kerala.

BTW,Sharada Devie, the wife of Great Saint Paramahansa Raamakrushna never delivered a child. Still why she is famous as The Mother of ALL Living Beings?
The author of this blog can’t see the eternal, all pervading motherhood. This land is our Mother, the force that converts a sperm andegg into a full grown foetus is Motherlike Force. Every living being has to have a mother.
Also there are some factual inaccuracies. The word Brahmakumari implies a kumari (=girl) embedded in Brahman. Not any spinster could join the group. It’s not a fun club. These Honourable Women are living extended Brahma-charya-Ashram. They deserve due respect.

Yep, you are a freak if you think you are. But, I do not know anything more. We are all different otherwise we would be clones. You must be more that just different. You must be way outside the normal. What ever normal is. Just how are you so different?
-
Just how are you so different? How do you qualify to name yourself a freak?

hey! write!!!!

“the ordered folks are lazier – how? – well they’re so lazy to search for things that they spend more time trying to keep them at their places.”
Yeah, man those morons – they’re anti-entropy, anti-nature, anti-technology. I’ve no idea why they don’t start using RFID to track remote controls and phone-bills and spoons and all the lil thingies. Maybe they never heard the mantra of the G-era – “search, don’t sort”.lol

‘Tell me what would be better than the thrill of keeping something safe and then forgetting about it , messing things up and then finding it out’
i know how that feels, the smile it brings to your face, priceless…!!
‘the ordered folks are lazier – how? – well they’re so lazy to search for things that they spend more time trying to keep them at their places’
good one!!
@ suraj
like the quote, ’search, dont sort’..! -

Please do not fall in trap in lay man language you will go mad. No sex no onion no garlic no food cooked by other so many nos in life than why some shpuld live for -
How I feel the itch to respond to this
. I was going to write something on the lines of how thaaat’s what society and civilization is all about, how eccentrics are dangerous to the functioning of a group etc, and how this ‘togetherness’ percolates, and is probably expected to, to psyche of individuals.
One way to retain sanity might be to turn into a hypocrite or getting two glasses for the world, to put it mildly.

Nice one. I hate being bombarded with coloured powder too. I usually ward of such colour-bearing people using my umbrella. I beat them up with it
with fair warning of course.
Maybe a little bit of emotional intelligence will help you get what you want without being a socially ostracised. Just a thought. -
Do try soaking your white t-shirt in a half bucket of water + a cap-ful of bleach for an hour or so. It will be as good as new.
