Verbal Blues

What an unimaginative title! The moment I typed it down, that was the first thought that came to my mind. It must be something in the air. But with every passing day, I find that there’s some serious problem with me when it comes to expressing my emotions and feelings in words. A point will come when just hand gestures and facial constrictions will have to do for me.
For instance, someone asks me, ‘ did you see the news of how the lover killed himself and his girlfriend? What is wrong with today’s youth?’ I, with a deadpan expression, say, ‘Yeah man, it’s weird’. And to say the least, ‘weird’ is the word that crops up in my mind while describing the magnitude of an event or a person.
So weird it is, man! Maybe I should start reading Charles Dickens. Or, just leap off to Salman Rushdie. I once sat with Satanic Verses. After half an hour I felt like someone was hurling me through a time-warped zone in continuum. I couldn’t even go half, as far so as to figure out what all the brouhaha on beheading Salman Rushdie was all about. Now, that didn’t make any sense. But given the fact of me having the ‘dry day’ syndrome for several weeks, I’ll let it pass.

Losers galore

Yes. There are losers galore. Teeming everywhere. from the virtual forums to the crowded stations, hang-out joints, everything. The problem with this particular species is that, they feel like they are God's boon to earth and therefore, they try to make the most out of it by irritating the hell out of others. One particual species has emerged who take their virtual lives too seriously. Like promoting their online communities even more seriously than Obama would worry about recession. Or getting into fights and spewing out rehashed abuses like 'go to hell'..'keep trying..one day you'll improve'..'lolzzz you suck..you are so lame'. Yes son, I am super lame. And you are a mix of all marvel superheroes out there. Time to take a hike to another planet, now. Anyways, now I am done venting my anger over here.
Switch to real life losers now. The problem with them is - you can't turn them off and make them vanish. they are omnipresent. The term 'losers' is a li'l dubious here, being more often in use by snob, arrogant, self-bloated people. I think 'annoying pricks' would suffice.
Well, now I feel bored again. time to get onto facebook and start playing stupid games. If anyone is trying to look for humor here, you'll be disappointed as I rot at it.
