Testify yourself...

If you have been reading newspapers recently...Santhi Soundarajan, silver medalist from Asian games failed the sex test.
This means she would have to loose the medal. Source

Now..this could be the wired'st of all the tests one could possibly fail..and probably the most embarrassing one too.
The test..I guess would involve..endocrinologist, psychologist, and gynecologist...ahm..ahm..

Lets try to get down to the psychology part and guess what the questions might look like.. :)

1. Are you using a pen or a pencil to write this test...
a. Pencil. I have pens too in my purse...but i prefer pencils..to make corrections..
b. Managed to borrow a pen for a while..

2. Shopping is…
a. A fascinating experience...even better when shared.
b. A method used to extract secrets from terrorists...

3. What does _nothing is wrong_ mean?
a. Start guessing and apologizing or I’ll kill you in your sleep...
b. Oh shit...I knew this would happen.

4. The best time for sex is…
a. When your mood and your schedule is right and weather has to be perfect...
b. Do you mind xxxxxxxxxxxx
<..plz don't ask me...xxxxxxxx...>
[Puneet (24-Dec-06)] Edited due to some requests ...explicit contents ...

5. You go for love or Lust..
a. Love obviously.
b. Is there a difference..?

6. Most people are...
a. Dangerous insane freaks..
b. Lovely creatures..

7. When you observe a man doing a simple task, you think…
a. That freeking bastard is doing it wrong..and ruining everything..
b. Why would I watch a man doing a simple task?

8. When a man doesn’t notice your new lip colour...it means...
a. He no longer loves you..
b. Does a lip colour matter?

9. After a man explains the _undeniable_ logic of his point of view…
a. That's a proof that he just doesn't get it...
b. Case closed..no discussions!

10. Your reaction to this test is…
a. You Bastard!
b. He He!...you’re dead..Dude!


Testify yourself please...


Update (16-Sept-2007): Just learnt about unfortunate even of Santhi attempting a suicide. (link). Would like to re-iterate that I never intended to mock anyone with this post and it was just on a lighter vein. No offenses meant to anyone.

Shortcut to God...

Just received a SMS from Reliance customer support...exact wordings of the SMS goes like:

1234
Light a candle in Velankanni Church. Just dial 1234 & say LIGHT a CANDLE, & a candle will be lit in your name. (Rs. 6/min) Reliance.

what a crap!!

Lead by Example...

the idea occured to me...something that I wanted to share...because it speaks to the best way to influence other people...*Leadership by example*

I read...“The greatest sermon in life is the one you see.”... To me,this meant... *make your life your message...live your truth...walk your values...behave your philosophy*....

so easy to talk a great game...far difficult to live it...but the best do....elegantly...consistently..passionately. ..
may be...

Code Monkey...

"Code Monkey" by Jonathan Coulton..Awsome...

Code Monkey get up get coffee
Code Monkey go to job
Code Monkey have boring meeting
With boring manager Rob
Rob say Code Monkey very dilligent
But his output stink
His code not “functional” or “elegant”
What do Code Monkey think?
Code Monkey think maybe manager want to write god damned login page himself
Code Monkey not say it out loud
Code Monkey not crazy, just proud

Code Monkey like Fritos
Code Monkey like Tab and Mountain Dew
Code Monkey very simple man
With big warm fuzzy secret heart:
Code Monkey like you

Code Monkey hang around at front desk
Tell you sweater look nice
Code Monkey offer buy you soda
Bring you cup, bring you ice
You say no thank you for the soda cause
Soda make you fat
Anyway you busy with the telephone
No time for chat
Code Monkey have long walk back to cubicle he sit down pretend to work
Code Monkey not thinking so straight
Code Monkey not feeling so great

Code Monkey like Fritos
Code Monkey like Tab and Mountain Dew
Code Monkey very simple man
With big warm fuzzy secret heart:
Code Monkey like you
Code Monkey like you a lot

Code Monkey have every reason
To get out this place
Code Monkey just keep on working
See your soft pretty face
Much rather wake up, eat a coffee cake
Take bath, take nap
This job “fulfilling in creative way”
Such a load of crap
Code Monkey think someday he have everything even pretty girl like you
Code Monkey just waiting for now
Code Monkey say someday, somehow

Code Monkey like Fritos
Code Monkey like Tab and Mountain Dew
Code Monkey very simple man
With big warm fuzzy secret heart:
Code Monkey like you

Only once have I been made mute. It was when a man asked me, "Who are you?"

-Khalil Gibran

EMC enlightened me with Citibank.
My experience so far...

-> In addition to the usual debit card, they'll send you all the other scheme cards (Indian Oil, grocery, Shoppers Stop Card) also. Your consent is not required for this.
And will gladly charge you Rs.499 (+taxes) each card.

-> You are also supposed to have a Citibank Gold Cash Back credit card.(they need not ask you for this).
Oh yes, if you deny the card, they'll make it "lifetime free" for you (being an "esteemed customer" with *good track record*).
Your life time is one year. After that they'll charge you Rs.1000 (+taxes) as renewal charges for the card.

-> You are also supposed to take a personal loan from them. Otherwise they'll bug you calling every other day.
Adding yourself to Citibank's DND(do not disturb) list does not help!

-> And, if by any chance, you have visited any of their branches for cash transactions, don't be surprised if you have been charged Rs.100 (+taxes) as personal banking charges.
(you can get this reverted back by placing a request though)...

Relaxed and Perplexed

Very often someone comes to my desk...I usually raise both my arms...in a relaxed fashion with my hands locked behined my head... leaning backwards on the chair...(dont know what is this supposed to mean in body language terms).
wondering...this should mean something...should propose a theory for this atleast... :)

So...when someone is talking to you...raises one of the arms...showing armpits...you intutively feel one out of the two things...

1-> you raise your arm in order to show your armpits and both feel a plaseant sensation of showing them and sharing their natural *scents* (that means sharing thoughts...cooperation...friendship...equality... and what were you thinking I'm talking of ? :) )

2-> you instinctevely sniff the air...as you were absorbing the scent of the one who has the arms raised. That should be a socially respectful manner to consider the one with arm/s raised as stronger...or wiser...or anything...in that moment.

Now...in an even *more* relaxed (perplexed actually!) moment...one could raise *both* arms and show *both* armpits...that would mean an even more *comfortable* situation..and it is even more relaxing if you raise both of your arms too and continue the conversation...

So...just raise your arm when you feel you like on a conversation and observe the reactions!!!!!!

Answers with No Questions

I have a feeling that Douglas Adams presently must be just looking down on all of us and grinning at the fact that we are all here still wondering what the meaning is and looking for answers that never had a question....:)

Aim of Life

These are some random scratches ...on what I think life is all about...
okay.. not my thoughts in entirity, but have given a lot of thought over this...happy??

Life's aim can be well stated in three stages...
1-> Survival
2-> Social
3-> Entertainment/Satisfaction

with the following rules applied:
-> cannot skip these stages...i.e individual cannot(will not) aim of being social until he has survived, or went past through stage one...similarly one cannot think of entertainment withou one and two.
-> it's a cycle which never ends....i.e we'll be going back to survival as soon as we are satisfied with life...this is where *greed* come into picture...the cycle never ends...we hae exceptions here..sucide cases..may be i am wrong here..or just need to think more on this.
-> They are always achieved in the same order...one..two..three...one..two..three..
-> every action is based on achieving one of the above goals...(i have a nice case study of *sex* on this...but restraining myself from quoting here...just to be serious :) )
-> all this applies not only to humans..but to all life forms.
