Some things that u can do away with if u want a sure shot way of being a nice guy..
1. The jokes , the jokes.... ! - k if u have a decent sense of humour u should check it...Coz no one likes humour around here...
2. The sarcasm - this is a huge deal..its not a joke ! i mean literally ! bein sarcastic is not being funny...its being worse ... its rude.. how mean !
3. Dont be casual , be nice .... - implies not saying stuff like , "dude , i ll take care of it later " and saying "OH, ok ... sure man , i ll get that done ..first thing once im done with what is in my hand " ( essentially means the same thing ....)
4.Ask about the weather , the lunch ..please keep talking to her (applies mostly to chicks.. ) , so that she doesnt feel bored , out of place , insecure, stupid etc...and u feel that instead.Strict no - no on music (Rock is just a wanna be genre u c ...if u like rock you are a wanna be...LAME ),no info on photography, blogs etc to be shared coz they ll think that you are marketting urself.. So kindly talk about stuff thats of no use to anyone....
5.One of the most important things that most people look for in a nice guy is his ability to tolerate all the shit that they say.May it be about their knowledge on music (like my frnd @sudhamshu pointed out. ... someone told him that yanni is a rockstar and all he cud was nod his head to it... hes a nice guy isnt he ? ).If people tell you that Keralas capital is Calicut (ask any BIT ian ..they know it is ! ) , all that you are allowed to do is nod your head like a tender coconut swaying in the wind (thats what they see in you when they know that you are from kerala)
6.You Officially have to accept Telugu as your mother tongue if you have any Telugu guys for teammates.
7.You should never have your own opinions
8.You are allowed to eat only during / between / not spanning the entire interval unless less than 75 minutes - 8-10 (breakfast) 12-2 (lunch) , 4-5 (snacks) , 8-10 (dinner)
9.If you dont have a non telugu roommate , then you must listen to the next south indianish guy ( this might sometimes make Maharashtra the next south india (esp if we have kashmiris in teh group , which might not even qualify as india , if china keeps goin.. ) - MN guys please dont mind )
10.Your food is your god.If you claim that you dont care about what the cook makes , you are disrespecting the people around you for not letting him make good food ( WTF )

Misdirected Patriotism
Patriotism - it means loving your country..Loving your country more than anything else
It doesnt mean - Hating other countries,killing people in the other countries,mistreating people in the other countries,not allowing people from other countries to enter your countriy,treating the people in your country like VIPs and others like they are limbless bastards,insulting people in your neighbourhood country so that you can glorify your national pride.....
FUCK IT : We are all just people..Just lame people who are after our own happiness..If i have a gun pointed to your head , you are just going to give me a cheap shot in the groin and gimme a taste of my own bullet..even if i am your brother,your mother/ your sister.....
We have no claim over our motherland.We have no claim over anything.The only claim we can make is our right/duty to protect our loved and dear ones.Unless and until it can mean death to your loved one , you shouldnt just give a FUCK...
Law and Order : We india are a very huge country..Bringing in people like pakistani batsmen, if at all , can only pose a security risk and not a risk to our national pride.What if pakistanis were involved ? Havnt we indians killed too ? Havent we sinned too ? Its the sin we must hate and not the sinner..Even if you wanna hate the sinnner , dont hate the sinners country..
I am not a pakistani supporter..I am not a chauvinist either..But i dont see the difference between the life of a human here and the life of a human there....If he wants to play for a club here, i dont see anything except glorified / meaningless indian chauvinism coming in the way...ShahRukh Khan is justified for what he did....I will justify anyone who stands up for a human cause.
PS : I thought these things were obvious...Until i had a very heated argument about his with my friends , with many wanting to just support IPLs cause..WTFed ..really...

to the MNopqrS - TALL claim dudes...!
Just another post
This is just going to be random.... :)
TOpic 1 :
Saving tigers
Well the tigers should understand that we humans are a very complex race..We are the largest in population capable of killing a million peoples happiness by uttering one wrong word and one selfish act (even insects cant do tat..ever blame a mosquito for sucking ur blood ? ).. If we cared , we wouldnt blog about it...may be we would actually....
It should be more like...we wouldnt JUST blog about it ...
Topic 2 :
Saving our asses
We are experts at it.If we dont do it , we are often called stupid ,dumb, slow brained,sissy,truthful,Mahatma Gandhi etc.....so i guess theres no point discussin that anymore....Humans are not cannibalistic..so u dont have to fear death SO much..Help someone in need,instead of saving your ass all the time ! .its not going to kill you.
Topic 3
Love : Love is really complicated..these days i only feel the need for it when i am lonely and jobless..though , it makes me realize that its a lot more powerful than it seems - esp when u r just reminiscing about how good it would be to have someone with you, in the times of loneliness....Its a lot more than that...
Topic 4
Music : Its fun only coz ur happy playin it... (dark songs just reduce the grief i guess.by letting u vent it..i am not such a huge fan though :)
Topic 5
Monday : is a pain..but the Mondaynity is just short lived..atleast it isnt unexpected sabotage.. (like parts of my weekend )

Casual-IT-y
The Heading came from this --
Well, usually if you are an IT professional, you would naturally draw to yourself the unwanted causality - solution syndrome.
Step 1 : You are assigned some feature/bug which is to be fixed in OLD code (aka somthing u dint write :P )
Step 2 : You Fix it.
Step 3 :OLD Code fukks up after a month during load and stress testing and you get blamed for it every time
Step 4:You swallow huge volumes of conditioned polluted recirculated air from the surroundings of ur cubicle and swear to god that hell is disneyland.
Step 5:People will sympathize and all you can do is hear some retards quote your fix as the root cause
Step ULTIMATE : Next time you fix the code, you are stuck analysing teh root cause for the problem and looking for an ultimate solution...==> Nothing is impossible -->this almost counts as nothing....
SO ,in this rather heavy procedure described just above , you (the IT professional if yo are one / me if you arent one ) , are transforming yourself (/myself ) into a simple turing machine..(google it ) ..Though a lil imperfect.....
inspite of all the work put in ..we can always get our ass kicked for the smallest of errors...like a famous guy on twitter said ... "to err is human..to forgive is not company policy . )
On this joyous occassion of selfless selfs ass kicking .... i would like to request you to visit my flickr page and bash me with some comments..i really wanna know wat u think.. !! -- www.flickr.com/photos/camera_bipod
