Isn't this great

Censorship in India targets Video Games:
"This is true that there is a proposal that the Censor Board should start censoring all video games--and I agree with proposal totally," India's Censor Board chairperson Sharmila Tagore told the news outlet.
....
....
Tagore also told Daily News & Analysis that the Censor Board would make developers remove certain features from a game if they "are not suitable for children" and would like their game to be available in the country.

Ain't that great news folks. Finally our government is taking steps to protect us from the harsh realities of the world, and you thought they don't care about us - stupid.
I feel they should do more and more on similar lines.

Sigh!

Bye bye 2007

I'm not sure what inspired me to start blogging again, it's probably sepsis's mail about blogging kumaarrs(yes, there are quite a lot of them doing it, blogging I mean ;) ). Especially now that I don't have net at home(we shifted our residence again, our fourth house in past 1 1/2 years) I never thought I'd be blogging so soon. Ok ok, cutting the crap...

I had never seen a jatre(can't think of a word in English, fair doesn't even come close) in a messenger before this.

I'm not a big fan of foxtrot(not the dance) but this is good stuff.

Heard that JKR is thinking of eigth book, I just hope it doesn't end up being a parody of the previous installments by rediscovering the sexual orientations of it's characters. Only Tarantino has the right skill to do those things.

I always support gamers, by principle.. but d00d!

No year end posts ends well without saying something about coming year's anticipated movies.

Peace.

Whatever..

Ok, here is the thing. I am writing this post just for the heck of it and to some extent to not have the disgusting rodent post(exact words by Deepu don) on the front page of this blog anymore. I am stating this at the very beginning 'cos I'm not a sadist and am fully aware how frustrating it is to read a totally worthless blog(kumaarrs would know what I'm talking about ;) )

Sepsis wrote something about terrorism recently and I would like to add one thing, the definition of terrorism I came across while digging, it is bang-on accurate.














Don't blame me, its a professional hazard to seek all explanations in block diagrams.

Recently I read an article about sharp increase in number of failed love marriages and things responsible for it, my question - can you blame anyone for your failed love marriage? Its like saying "Dude, my suicide was so uncool." (This is of course a completely hypothetical situation. No one asks who is to blame, its always the man's fault)
Having a lame death is alright, but not when you do it yourself. A lame suicide is completely your own fault. While you're still thinking about suicides.
Don't get me wrong, I don't support suicides or even marriages as a matter of fact.

PS: Reading about marriages has got nothing to do with me. Its just that the topic is coming across a lot recently in conversations and stuff.(No offense meant, to anyone)
If you think the post is crazy and offensive I blame Superbad for that, my mind has gone totally insane after watching it.

I smell a rat
















"I smell a rat" thought came to me at a chicken center I had been recently. It turned out that it was indeed a rat and not the effect of watching "The Departed" for the nth time.
"Is it for sale?" I asked and the shopkeeper smiled, I hoped it wasn't a "You'll know when you get home" grin. I took a pic and he smiled again.
Well, next time if you order chicken kabab and something tastes funny, you know what the joke is.

Movie masti..

The weekend was rather uneventful except Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix which we watched in IMAX 3D. I'm not a big fan of HP but staying with one for quite some time seems to be rubbing off on me.
The movie wasn't half as bad as I had expected(especially after Goblet of Fire), the visuals were fantastic. The new cast Imelda Staunton and Helena Bonham Carter were good, Ron and Hermione didn't get the screen time they deserve, the twins rock and I really miss Richard Harris who played Dumbledore in the first two installments. The movie was a bit slow in the middle but picked up pace in the last 30 minutes(which was screened as 3D in IMAX) and was wrapped up quite well.
The rest of my weekend was idle, didn't have much choice with both my roomies working(yeah!). Well, as Calvin says "Weekends don't count unless you spend them doing something complete pointless."

Watched Man of the Year yesterday night. Robbin Williams was brilliant, as usual. I've picked up quite a liking for stand up comedy after watching the movie for the first time a few months back. Damn I miss television.

I've always wondered about my position in the food chain(not to be taken literally :P) and Times of India had something interesting to say about this.
They stated a totally random quote(not related to any of the articles) saying
"Women like mediocre men and hence men are striving to be mediocre!" (..really)
Me: "Good. I'm already mediocre".
Frastu: "No you are not. You aren't trying hard enough".
Well, guess I still have hope :)

Things are back to normal..

Well me n frastu did some spending and had crappy food yesterday night and psycho was working well past midnight. Seems like I went back six months in a time machine, the only thing missing is net. Missing it, seriously. Looks like the post trip hangover is finally over.

Good thing: Now I've got a sturdy footwear which tempts me to learn kick boxing
Bad thing: Things are back to normal. Sigh!
Worst thing: yet to start ;)
