Got an Attitude... carry it off....

It was raining heavily out here in chennai yesterday.. and it still is... yesterday it was quite a heavy downpour.. i was stuck at this friend's place of mine and both of us were forced to take a bus to this place called "adayar" for some work...


so we got into this bus... buses in chennai have seats demarcated for men and women separately.. i guess it's the same everywhere.. so all seats in the men's side were taken.. and as there were no women standees, us and a couple of other males sat down on the women's section.. and in totality the bus was like exactly full... no vacant seats.. and nobody standing..


at an intermediate stop, two middle aged ladies boarded the bus.. we got up to offer them the seat before they could ask for.. for which they said they were comfortable standing... one of them gave us her bag to hold it for her.. so we were seated again...


so at the next stop , a girl.. she must have been in her late teens i guess... a college goer maybe.. even as the bus approached the stop.. she was staring at me and my friend.. so did it seem to both of us... her glare was something like.." you guys are using up the Ladies seat"...


so when she got into the bus.. both of us got up to give her the seat .. even as we were getting up.. this girl said//"ladies seat"....


we gave her her seat which was her birthright i know.. and we got the glare of our lifetimes in return... for having been seated in "her" seat till then.. we gave the other lady's bag back to them... they requested this girl to hold it for them..... and this girl retorted back.." not my bag"... and that was not very polite too i guess..


who cares whatever...me and my buddy were standing and chatting away on something else... the thing about bus conductors in chennai is that you need to go to them to buy yourself a ticket... conductors don't come to you..


So this girl took out a Rs.10 note, handing it over to the conductor, near whom we were standing.. and said "one velachery"...


now the funny part is velacherry was in the direction right opposite to where this bus would go... it's like a T junction where you take a left to adayar and a right to velacherry...so she was obviously in the wrong bus... the conductor said.." velachery pogadu ma".. meaning this bus doesn't go to velacherry...


she said" one checkpost then"... i giggled... everyone around was giggling... [ checkpost was a place enroute velacherry and was nowhere in the route of this bus again..!!]the conductor shouted back..." do you even know where this bus is going... you get into the bus at 7 in the morning and make my life hell,, this is 21 G "..


This was enough to feed words into my mouth... I commented generically.."bus la earum pozhudu... board ah pathu earanum.. ladies seat la yaaru ukkandirukkanu pathu eara koodadhu..." ... which transliterates as.. " board a bus looking at the board.. not looking at who's occupying the ladies seat"...


Everybody in the bus laughed... passengers , conductor and all... though i felt sorry for this poor girl who got onto a wrong bus on one hellova nasty rainy day... i know how tough it is ...


but if you've got this kind of an attitude... better learn to carry it off....!!!


and this girl was gotten out of the bus mid-way by the conductor... maybe she learnt her lesson the hard way..!!/


Cheers..!!

cooked up..!!!.. covered up..?????

4 college students were playing late into the night and didn't
study for a test which was scheduled for the next day.

In the morning they made a plan. They made themselves look as dirty with grease and dirt. They then went up to the Dean and said that they had gone out to a wedding the previous night and on their return the tyre of their car burst and they had to push the car all the way back and that they were in no condition to appear for the test.

So the Dean said they could have the re-test after 3 days. They thanked him and said they would be ready by that time.

On the day of the test they appeared before the Dean. The Dean said that as this
was a Special Condition Test, all four were required to sit in separate
classrooms for the test. They agreed as they had prepared well the
previous 3 days.

The Test consisted of 2 questions with a total of 100 Marks.

And the questions were.....

Q.1. Your Name........ ......... ......... (2 MARKS)



Q.2.. which tyre burst? (98 MARKS)
a) Front Left
b) Front Right
c) Rear Left
d) Rear Right.....!! !

S : Hello,Gud mrng...

Telecaller(TC) : Sir,do u have a credit card..(it's a female )

S : err..xcuse me.. may i know who's on d line...wer u calling from..

TC : i'm callin from "some goddamn bank".. do u hav a credit card..?

S : mam, u jus called me up at 10:30 in d mornin on a fine tuesday... u r not bothered to ask me if i'm busy or free.. or if i have the tym to listen to you now... doesn't your bank teach you etiquette....

TC : sory sir,, R u free now.. ? do u have a credit card...?

[by now a couple of my colleagues have come over and d call is on loudspeaker... we'r havin fun rn't we.... rofl....]

S : mam, do you mind letting me know from where you've got to my mobile no.?

TC : it's in our database sir...

S : okay cool... now.. i need to talk to your manager about the credit card...and your DB.. please.... coz am planning to sue you both for breach of privacy......

TC : (silent)

S : hello..... err hello...

S : guess your bank might not have taught you the etiquette on how to strike a formal conversation with a prospective customer... but they sure have taught you to listen silently and not talk back when a customer is mad at you and is blasting you away....

S : hello.....

TC hangs up.. rofl.....

guess she'll never call me back again.. nor will some1 else from tat bank....



Am really loving gettin under these people's skin... am so bad.. i knw... but guess this is a better way than shouting @ 'em and calling 'em names..... silent .. soft killer i guess....

Cheers..!!
