The Narcissa Of Hot
“That girl is hot!”
“No, she is not.”
“And you would know, would you? You don’t check out women.”
“Says who? I check out women all the time.”

The pursuit of Excelense
Yes, yes, I spelt it that way on purpose. It does have a meaning. Not an error. Oh alright, I’ll stop snapping. I’m entrenched deep in the pursuit of Excelense. Excelense is the fine art of decoding MS Excel. Now, don’t get me wrong. I have an open mind and…
PMS
While PMS is no excuse for bad behavior, it is an experience that no woman is proud of. It isn’t funny to be at the mercy of chemicals that your own body produces and whose side-effects science has still been unable to find an adequate solution to. Quite alarming to…
History
These things never go away.If there has ever been history, it will show even if you are in the same room. Yes, very dramatic. And perhaps romantic. Heartening, even to some. But reality seems to indicate otherwise. Attraction, like everything else, is impermanent. Or perhaps I’m only thinking of fancy…
Aww G …
I was terribly amused by the extra ‘tadka’ that this restaurant adds to its language alongside its food! It probably was very rude to laugh, when I read the top line which read ‘Motter Panir’. Then true to Mumbaiker form, perpetually seeking improvement, the manager instructed the ‘board-writer’ to correct…
Silence – Impaired
There’s no value for silence. Bizarre day. Presentation, twenty thousand phone calls before and after and then a meeting on a conference call. I stumble back to my seat and announce: I’m tired of talking. SNC (in an indecently gleeful tone): I think I’ll send that out on an all-company…
Office Capers: Set me free….
Independence day celebration in office. Everyone asked to wear the tricolours in their apparel. And the office is full of excited, squealing kids running around all over the place. Oh, alright, fresh-out-of-college, barely out of their teens newbies who’re all gung-ho about the fact that office-goers have ‘fun’ too. *Grumble…
The Myth Of Virginity
The thing that bothers me is that people confuse virginity with purity and use the first to prove the second. Please, people, let’s get this straight: Virginity (or rather, the state of never having had sex) is physical, purity is spiritual. Really now, aren’t we all adult enough (and that…
Alpha Female Ekta Kapoor
I saw a re-run of Koffee with Karan‘s show with Ekta Kapoor. I had read Sakshi’s observation on the first viewing already so my curiosity was piqued beforehand anyway. I have to say, I was mighty surprised. Somehow, I’ve always carried an impression of Ekta Kapoor as a rather maudlin,…
Office Capers: Super ego-ess
This I so have to write about, if for nothing else, but as a rejoinder to women who think like this, that there are women like me too!!!!! SNC opens the morning boasting about his upcoming alumni meet in Goa. PJ Rani cuts in claiming to be his date and…
