Do you call him a Girl?

Rounik went to a movie with his friends. Every one was watching the movie. Suddenly Koushik called his friend and said “Hey! See Rounik is crying dude... Hahaha”

“He is crying like a girl yaar. Hey! Stop crying like a girl and be a guy. Ok” said Aashik.

This happens with few guys. Can’t a guy feel the pain of others? In fact, Rounik was so involved in the movie that he was vicariously suffering the pain of the hero. He didn’t realize that he was crying, sub consciously. He enjoyed the movie. Every other person might have enjoyed commenting him but not the movie.

Vishal faced a similar situation. There was a blood donation camp organized by his firm. Most of them volunteered. Kunal donated blood and came to Vishal and said “Dude aren’t you donating your blood?”
“No”
“Why Vishal, do you have any allergy or problems?”
“No Kunal. Actually I am scared of injections and allergic to see my blood. So I don’t want to donate blood.”
“What! Are you scared of injections… come on… don’t be a girl. See here Shanthi, Sowmya and many other girls are donating blood. You say you are scared…mmm “said Kunal.

Guy who is scared of giant wheels and roller coaster rides, fond of flowers and nature, love babies too much, likes to cook, washes his clothes, cleans the house, gardening etc generally face this problem. Is it right likening him to a girl? We need to think…

The best 2 wheeler for your beloved ones…

We have many 2 wheelers in the market and many more are coming day by day. One of my friends sent me an email with the images of latest bikes that have come / yet to come into the market. I had a glance of those bikes. They all look gorgeous with their back including silencer raised high. “But how do people go doubles on such bikes? Isn’t it a factor that will hinder the sale…” I asked my friend who was eager to buy one. “Dude! Many people, myself included, prefer these bikes because of their style, especially the back portion…it has lots of advantages you know…” he replied and continued “If you buy a normal bike, you need to wait for a speed breaker or a pit to have a physical touch of your girl friend sitting at the back. But with these bikes, your love will always lie on you as long as you drive.” It was a jovial discussion; still it has some points to ponder upon. I was just thinking which would be the best 2 wheeler to go with our dear ones.

Posh people say bikes of these kinds are best to freak around with beloved ones. Married women feel comfortable and happy sitting on a scooter, while their husbands drive. Few families who concentrate more on the budget prefer bikes with great mileage and say they are the best.

“Bicycle is the best 2 wheeler for any couple” said a woman coolie. I was as surprised as you are. But it sounded reasonable after hearing to what she said. “I sit on the bar (front part) of the cycle holding the handle along with my husband. I give support in balancing the cycle and the load at the back. Can I do this when I am on a bike? All I can do is just sit back and take care of my own safety. If it's a bicycle, I hold our lunch boxes so that nothing spills out. Whereas, when you go on a bike, I do not get a chance to hold them as the bike handle takes care of them. Needless to say, I can't guarantee their safety. If some one or some thing comes into our way, I sound ring the bell and ask them to clear the way. I could only react for the brakes if I am on a bike. I can clear his sweat with my sari, especially when he is cycling on the steep roads. Above all I feel safe and happy sitting in his arms and feeling his breathe. You know I will be sitting close to his heart if I am on his cycle. What else do I need? ” said that lady.

I left the place with a smile on my face and thoughts in my mind… I remember my friends pedaling with me when we were on a cycle. It is certainly a sweet memory. Happy cycling… its even good for health :-)

I want to Booze…

Every people who fuddle has their own story to tell you if you ask when, where and why did they start drinking? You might have heard people saying…

-> Beer is good to health and I started drinking it just to put on weight and I drink beer nothing else… (He might be a beginner)
-> I have it just to improve the charm of my face… you know consuming alcohol brings colour and shining to your skin…just try it and you will really feel it… (As if he is a dermatologist...)
-> I take them occasionally, that too when I’m with friends… (Because parents will not encourage such activities)
-> I consume them just like that… and drinking is not a sin (As if he is a priest)
-> They act as medicine to forget all my pains and sorrows (No one can help him)
-> I drink for passion and style (mmm Fashion designer… who said drinking is stylish...)
-> It is time pass for me… that too on a week end I surely booze all the night till 3 or 4 in the morning… (Killing the time and spoiling the health... both are precious)

Many more to the list… it is all cock and bull stories… in one shot they drink just because they want to.

I too have a story for my want of boozing… it might be strange but yes I really feel at times to booze…

I was calling Raghu (not his real name), one of my friends to come to Hyderabad and spend some time with me. He was just postponing it week after week. I invited him to my birthday party two days in advance. Still, he didn't. Another guy Arjun (not his real name), from our group came to Hyderabad and called him on my birthday to have a sitting (to booze). He started immediately on the same day and reached Hyderabad the next day morning 6am. It doesn’t mean that Raghu is close to Arjun; in fact he loves me a lot. But still some thing made him to post pone, while I was calling. And in fact, it was booze that dragged him here when Arjun, called him for a sitting.

I was an observer in that party. I saw Raghu very happy after a long time. Repeat.. Repeat.. Repeat.. Every one drank peg after peg with full of joy. They started talking about every thing, our college days, cinema, sports, and almost every thing that happens on this earth. I felt isolated; still I was happy seeing all my friends in happy mood.

We all met after a long time… boozing brought them close… I felt I need to booze…

I had another experience with Ramu (not his real name). I went to his room to be the first to wish him on his birthday. I met him while I was going to his room in the evening. He was going out for a party and said he will be back soon. I waited... waited and waited… Hero came at 1.30am… fully drunk. He couldn't even hold the gift which was given. He said “Sorry Mohan, actually I didn’t knew it will go so long today. They forced me to booze and I couldn’t say no because it is my last birthday with them”. He didn't realize that it's the same with me.

I rarely wish people at 12.00am. As this guy is leaving me and I might not meet him on his next birthdays, I went to his room. Still I couldn't be the first to wish him because I wasn't at his side on the hour. All his boozing partners wished him and gave birthday bumps too. He came home trembling. Had I been a boozer myself, I would have been among those who wished him first…

There are many more time when I was left behind because I don't booze....parties, get together, etc. I feel to booze whenever such things happen. I would be happily boozing, than to be kept aside by the best of my friends...
