I try to say a lot while saying very little. Get used to it.
thinking. or the lack thereof.
either nothing at all happens. or so much happens that i can’t even talk.
or things happen that stun me to the point i’m just unable to talk.
i’m a little worried about what is happening to my brain. either i’m losing the ability to emote; or at some point of time, i’m going to lose it. big time. ouch.
there was a point of time when i commented that i was able to freeze on every thought and follow it to its logical conclusion. analyze, realize and so on. but somehow thats not happening anymore. the constant avalanche means that i have to actually note things down when they come to me.. or i lose the thought.
i wonder how many inspirations have been lost because the thinker has simply not written them down. i know that half the time i try to make a “mental note”.. which as a general peice of information does not exist. it serves as a reminder when you see that someone else has also come up with the idea much later.
speaking on general notions, i’ve come to realise that hypocrisy is inherent to human nature. we comment, condemn, judge… but none of the above apply to us. we sometimes even believe.. but ignore the belief when it suits us. unfortunate but true. survival and lack of hypocrisy cannot co-exist.
there is no reason for me to say this, its just something thats in my head right now.
regret and hindsight are commonplace. we can ignore the conclusions to try and make ourselves feel better, but this only means they come to haunt us even more. our minds analyzing capabilities can only be suppressed for so long. any activity we indulge in eventually become monotonous to the brain.. and so redundant activities will be indulged in. thinking and re-thinking.
i’m realising a lot of the things i indulge in are simply to divert my mind.. so that i don’t do this. my form of hindsight usually involves major problems in self-belief.. something i am trying to avoid. yes, i know this is not a solution.
and reality sucks. no matter what.
No trackbacks yet.

Google’s latest experiment – Buzz – has been launched to the world recently, with varying degrees of appreciation, hate, irritation and all the reactions that every new social idea is greeted with. Personally, it is a social media outlet/inlet that I can get on board with – seeing as how it integrates nicely into my More >
my problem with hindi movies today
about 3 weeks ago - 8 comments
There have been any number of reviews about the latest from the Bollywood stable (My Name is Khan) – ranging from vitriolic to sarcastic/mocking to adulatory.
I could write reams, spew abuse galore, and point out in how many different ways the movie gets it wrong… but I won’t. That’s too easy. Plus, people have already done a pretty good job More >

This is the 4th attempt I’m making at trying for a halfway decent beginning to a post. Have I really been reduced to saying such banalities? I can’t quite believe it. When I look at my front page, most of my recent posts are about movies. Reviews, basically. Most of my recent posts have also More >

The world has been talking about the Google Chrome OS. We have people saying ‘next big huge thing‘, and obviously, ‘next big huge steaming pile of crap‘.
Me, personally? I haven’t, and still don’t like the idea of Google having a browser on the market – it reeks too much of a company trying to ensure More >

[opinion due to : Betanews - Zune HD: The best portable media player you may never buy ]
Like many other reviews have done before him, the author demonstrates real love for the Zune HD. He also stresses limitations – both artificial and real – which apparently translate to it being the device that nobody will More >

[Thoughts due to: io9: Who Created Spider-Man? ]
It is a deal-breaking case that has been filed against Marvel Comics, probably fueled by the recent success of Siegel vs DC for the Superman copyright (and the acquisition of Marvel by Disney too?). My own WTF was fueled by whether Spidey even belongs to this dispute (he More >
what do i really believe in?

When it comes to religion, a lack of knowledge about the unknown has meant that I have come to classify myself as a sort of agnostic (as opposed to atheistic), but if you were to argue with me about God and rituals you’ll find I’m mostly just apathetic. I have been known to do rituals More >
what is my super-power?

I’ve spoken more than once about my games while growing up. The cape on my shoulders: the flight, the jumping of buildings in a single bound. The vines: the jungles, the swinging and leaping through dense trees galore. The battle(s) with evil foes: the multiple times each one had to be beaten into submission. To More >

Quoted from this article:
James Otis, the owner of the Mahatma’s items, told PTI he plans to donate most of the money collected from the auction to “worthy causes” and institutions and groups working to promote Mahatma’s ideals especially non violence.
Otis said he will “donate the items to the Indian government free if it decides to More >

I never really realized how the people around me have aged until very recently. Somehow the people I knew when I left India were not people who could grow old. They had dark hair, glowing faces and were always larger than life. And yet, since the day I’ve left.. every time I go back, I More >
