Pet Peeves

One more tag..and again..Puneet it is!

X = People/folks/persons (u get the picture ;) )

  1. X who dont reply to SMSes and e-mails. Too busy, u see!
  2. These same folks calling up and mailing you frantically when they 'need' you.
  3. When am interrupted while making a point.
  4. I'm real pissed off when in a debate, X simply rubbishes my points with a wave of his hand and smirks.
  5. X who say they'd call / drop by, but never really do.
  6. Too many questions.
  7. When my sis wants the fan on at a full blast and then uses the quilt!! WTH!!!
  8. When it takes more than 20-25 mins for my order to be served. On more than one occassion,I've walked out.
  9. X who cant make up their minds even after the deed is done. Typical eg. :- Purchase something- come home-think-think-think- go back to the shop-exchange!!
  10. X who judge others by their taste in books/clothes/music/food/TV channel/etc. Preferances can never judge the whole persona.
  11. When X cant take on me straight and use the Bypass Attack technique to get even.
  12. X who make fun of other X's personality/religion/or anything which is a personal choice.
  13. X who cant make a decent conversation in simple english.
  14. X who cant handle a joke. Stiff upper-lipped people.
  15. X who indulge in looooooooonnnnnnnngggggg meaningless small talk, esp over the phone.
  16. Orkut and its bad donut naatak!
  17. X who claim they know me too well. Save three, none can claim that.
  18. When people are judged based on IQ, instead of their EQ.
  19. Snobs.
  20. When US of A is referred to with much reverance. God knows for what.
A new set of bloggers this time around...umm..

I too had a couple of interesting and rather frustrating experiences with such x's. But its better to be blunt and straighforward to them. Makes life a lot easier. It works well too. Helps them improve themselves and lets one have a peaceful sleep without any harsh thoughts and such..try it out.

the problem with such a list is half the time one is left self introspecting..
"Hold on is it applicable to me??me?ME??"

Even though one knows it doesnt really matter in the end :P:P

Principle 1.

Waiting for returns somehow robs life of its precious moments.Return of a loved one,return of a gesture,return of a call,a SMS,return of the Jedi..err,tht's getting too much. Waiting for something big,eventful to happen.It never really does happen,does it? Setting huge long term goals,looking at the big picture,thinking about the future...bah...aint it boring? I never believed in planning,coz they never worked for me.All the plans I've made so far have met the same success as fish living in a frost free fridge.And the analogies I make these days suck as the Microsoft Products do.And am not talking abt their vacuum cleaner.Old joke,I know. So,what's the point in giving ourselves the false hope of a security and control when nothing happens as per the plans? The level of comfort it brings might be a good carrot,but it's as comfortable as lying on a rock and imagining you are on cloud nine.This was bad too,I agree.Thank you. I've decided to take lil decisions everyday.

Killer V.

Vengeance is a powerful driver. It takes you over and makes you lose sight of sense. To give back as you got it gives one a sense of Power. The power to make/mar someone's life. In the heat of the moment - when the other person is at 'your' mercy - you have to make the call. Pull the trigger or let him go. All those past moments flash in your mind, hormones start racing your heart and you pull the trigger. Peace. Its over. Or is it a begining of a tumultous future? I have seen people take revenge. I remember that smile on their face and their emotionless eyes. Some people hurt/kill others to remove all that symbolised a painful past. They think by removing that person, they can shrug off their past. Or if they give that person his 'due', they'd feel better. It's been a while since I saw someone, who destroyed/spoiled someone else's life, lead a peaceful life himself. Has anyone of you witnessed this? Not taking revenge is considered a sign of cowardlines

Principle 4.

Before I forget,hello...am not on a preaching program!!! I already mentioned in mah Principle 1 post that these were the lil rules I was setting for MYSELF.Read that again.MYSELF.For Zarine. Toh dont blame/criticise me if you dont find them fit for yourself...and btw,after Princi 1,I've stopped listening ;). And now the last(!!) principle for this season.Once winter strikes in 2 months,we'll (I,me and myself) will be back with a new set of the same :D. Dont carry it too far.Yepes,that's the princi 4.I was thinking...would it be better to frame it as "Draw your lines",but for those who arnt artistically gifted,I wont make much sense.But,hey,wasnt I writing these for myself? Whatever. What you give to a relation.What you demand from it.What you expect from the Indian cricket team.What you expect from the Meteorological Dept.What you expect from Airtel (Grrrrrr).And the likes.Dont let it cross the rational limits.Airtel service personnel believe in Hutch.High time I
