clubbing together a month’s worth of everything into one big gigantic post
about 2 months ago - 1 comment
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 >

[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 >
continually making random posts means i’m degenerating to traditional blogging

Moving sucks. SUCKS. Period.
And that series of long titles has been in honor of Dinosaur Comics. Bloody frickin’ awesome:
How he manages to get something pretty rockin’ everyday from the same 6 sets of images.. and not make it completely random is beyond me.
On a side note, and going back to the moving thing, I have More >
shera-wat the f*ck

Coming on the heels of Dr. Shilpa Shetty , we now have this.
Like why?
Now not only does my current objective have no meaning, but the place I live in has the absolute lack of sense to honour Ms. Sherawat.
p.s. I like my wordplay in the title. A lot. Go figure.
p.p.s. Yes, I only put the More >

I wish I could post about something interesting. Sadly, since I’m all out of ideas.. I’m just going to rant and make snide remarks about news items.. which are not necessarily news anymore.
By some quirk of fate, most news items I have read in the last few days have all been randomly crappy. There was More >

Many many eons ago, when I discovered Squible and the concept of ‘aside’ posts (just involving links).. I had started off with the concept of gomutra and how it would be sold. And now.. *drumroll* I present the ultimate conclusion to that – the gomutra soft drink.
Score! We can now start with all the jokes More >
the 2 billionth set

Yes. I counted to a billion. Twice. Even if Ravan beat me to it.
51. Do you like coffee?
In the mornings. I prefer chai anytime after that. Long-term habit, thanks to college.
52. How do you like your eggs?
Bhurjee-style. Again, college. Again, I’ve never quite managed to make it the way they did in college.
53. Do you More >

complete wtf-ness

go to devdthefilm.com
accept 18+ disclaimer.
click on the aptly named ‘lustline’ (second from right, bottom of page).
accept second (!) 18+ disclaimer.
choose: hindi or tamil (for max effect).
go: ‘wtf!’
p.s. dev d is anurag kashyap’s take on devdas. meaning complete psycho-giri. add abhay deol’s chameleon into the mix. not a romantic drama (whatever that is supposed to mean).

“Where would you want to go on a first date: Ideally, roaming the streets eating chaat. Impossible outside India, so probably someplace fun, and informal.”
You can somewhat do that in certain parts of Jersey.
“Whats your favorite smell? Vengai Sambar.”
I had some for lunch today!
I love doing these questionnaires myself…perhaps when I need a blog-filler.
