The term “fad” is something that has different meanings to different people. To most of the intellectuals or for that matter, pseudo-intellectuals it provides an opportunity to analyse (in a certain MR. Harsha’s words): What’s going on? To others it offers an opportunity to change themselves according to the way the world is changing.
Some of the recent fads that the author has noticed range from the trivial (like putting up “bachpan” photos on orkut after scanning them onto your comp) to the not so trivial (like people whom you had thought dumb(literally) speaking up and standing for the post of whatnot during the college elections).
Putting trivial things aside the latter is the subject of my blog today. As I write this there goes another procession by my room. A group of 5-10 people vouching for one person and trying to convince everyone why he should vote for that guy.
Let me make myself clear that I’m not against politics per se. I think politics as we see it in
Yeah well, coming back to the topic: College politics. It came to my knowledge (and utter amazement) that some of the Morons had tried to stand up for posts. The prime example being none other than Mr. Mohit. The guy filed his nomination for the post of “Wing Councillor” ( a sort of MLA if you call the hostel a “country”). His application was rejected. The reason was (brace yourself): he had forgotten to write in his application form the wing for which he wished to be considered.
And I thought only George Bush among the politicians was dumb!

Yeah well, my brother threatening me with a broken leg when I interrupt him watching “Transformers: The Animated Series” sounds more realistic!
Anywhoo…..you might call me a deluded soul and say: The guy doesn’t know a thing about politics!
Maybe I don’t but in the immortal words of Joker I would like to ask the college politicians just one thing: “WHY SO SERIOUS?”…..you see after being this big a cynic my status message on gtalk still goes: “Down with flu….cant play poly poly! People tell me its fun!”
p.s.: “Poly” is college for politics
p.p.s: After Mohit had learnt of his rejection he had so wisely said: “Its good they rejected me! I mean what good can a person do if he cant mention his constituency in his nomination form!”
p.p.p.s: I have a sore throat and an amazon for a nose currently, hence the reference to “flu”.

I was planning to give my all but defunct orkut account a much-needed facelift by throwing in a few kindergarten pics of mine. Your blog has made me decide against it though. It isn't a fad- for most of us, they're the only pics where we look even reasonably cute.
And as far as the poly scene goes, again in the words of a certain Mr.Harsha, 'Hang on, man, hang on.'
@dela
trust me the "bachpan" thing is positively a sort of fashion statement among mechies!
anywhooo.......regarding "hang on!", you have given me an idea about my next blog being a series of uncyclopoedic quotations by characters in R-land!
@dela beeteew
you do take blogs seriously dont you?
you decided NOT TO put up your "bachpan" pics after reading my blog? Wrong move.
I think a closer look at the photos might have told us ergo might have helped treat , whatever happened to you in your childhood resulting in you becoming the SULK!!!!
