Who cares! It's a holiday anyway...


So I was casually talking to one of my friends and this is how I conversation went:

[You can hear me tell you that story OR you can read the approximate transcription of the story]

Listen!

THE TRANSCRIPT
 
Me: So you all dressed for Easter?
She: Maundy Thursday. Easter is on Sunday
Me: What does Maundy mean? Good Friday then?
She: It’s a day of mourning… so not really dressed per say... Will explain later
Me: Isn’t it the day when Jesus died? If yes, then why is it called good Friday? Damn Romans! Just because they invented the calendar…
She: Good Friday cos jesus died for mankind’s sins... Maundy Thursday = Holy Thursday... Last supper etc with his disciples was today
Me: I thought Maundy was like a slang for idiot… you know because I confuse the days of the week… And I seriously think that Good Friday is a joke which the Romans pulled on the rest of the junta
She: we get bread and buns in church… Tomorrow we fast for the whole day and pray and will eat tomorrow night
Me: Why? I am sure the Romans gave food to Jesus… the Geneva convention makes sure of things like this
She: No! Today was the day when he had his last meal… and THAT is why it is called the last supper you idiot…
I love it when people call me an idiot… I don’t know why but it just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy… anyway…
She: When he was hung they gave him vinegar to drink?
Me: Why what happened to water? High maintenance or what?
She: They were torturing him you idiot…
Me: That’s cos he was calling him a king…
She: Yeah! And ceasar was king back then… so to torture him they gave him vinegar…
Me: Caesar wasn’t king back then… He had that thing with Cleopatra
She: Then it must be king herod…
Me: Sounds like a bird… or is it a fish…
She: No! I think it was Caesar… don’t confuse me now… plus I am church so fuck off now… will talk to you later…

ps: I recorded this yesterday. But I am pretending that I recorded it today. Which will explain the dorky pauses. 

pps: BUT I posted it today. So it is all confusing now.

ppps: Welcome to me world!

Amul - A Short Story

Its morning again, I can hear the darned birds chirping outside, with my eyes still closed I can hear the ticking sound of the wall clock like the irritating sound of the water faucet dripping. The water faucet never drips in my house, because I don't like it dripping, like the way mom's head was dripping blood, and flooded the floor and spoiled the carpet. I like everything neat and clean. My name is Amul. I believe my father was especially fascinated by the utterly butterly delicious girl. Though I have a liking towards her myself I don't like to acknowledge that to anybody. Though not many people have actually found out about this connection. But am aware of this because my father during one of his happy drunken moods told me about this. And those are rare cases. I know for a fact that even if am genetically part of my father, I will never become like him. I study in the 7 th grade. And I like my school. My favorite subject is math. I don't understand why people...

A moment to Remember – They don’t make movies like these since 2004.

Can you recall the last movie which made you drop your defenses and your cynical view of the world and relationships? Can you recall the last movie which made you yearn for something which you knew was all reel but you hoped that it was real? Can you recall the last movie which made you invest so much in the lead characters that you forgot where you were and cried your soul out? Can you remember the last movie which made you reminiscence of a time when you truly and really believed in fairy tales? I do, well some of them anyway, couple of movies do pop in mind which might answer most of the questions I ask, ‘Jerry Maguire’, ‘Love Story’, ‘The Notebook’ and ‘50 First Dates’. But if you look at the release dates of each of these movies, Jerry Maguire – 1996, Love Story – 1970, The Notebook – 2004, 50 First Dates – 2004, it has been more than a decade since I have seen these movies.  2004, apparently seems to be the year, fairy tales for the new century were written and tra...

Happy reading... I suppose...

Hello! Been quite a while since I stared down at the blinking cursor. So here... Uploading ALL of the stories I started and left unfinished over the years (reckon some of this is from circa 2009). Not sure how long the download links will work for... So if you want to read something, reckon best to download them and then like most things in ones' refrigerator, junk them when mold begins to grow on it. NOTE: The work is not proof-read, so there will be errors, spelling mistakes, missing words among others. The Great Indian Mythology : Was supposed to be a re-telling of Mahabharat set in today's day and age in a tongue in cheek manner. But the more I read the actual original story, I realized I can't top the fuckedupness that already exists. But, I did enjoy writing few bits of it.  Will rate this 2/5. If you think what I have written is fucked up, wait till you read the actual story... Not the PG rated Amar Chitra Katha... Also points deducted because I didn'...
