Sinners Against Gender Stereotypes (SAGS)

Yes, so this is the second tag for this blog... It may be obvious that I'm doing it as a measure to reassert my unpredictability, or maybe I'm just doing it for amusement. Either way, thanks to G for passing it on and the ideator of this tag.

Anyway, as far as sins against gender stereotypes go, I'm guilty on multiple serious counts...
Here goes 10 things that are totally un-manly of me:

1. Pink shirts, I have, and wear.
   Not much of a story behind this, mom forced me to wear them for a while, and nobody hated me for them, then I just got used to them.
   
   
2. I can cook, even common household food.
   Like most gastrosexual males, I prefer to read and try exotic recipes, but when need comes I can make a decent maachher-jhol bhath or roti-sabzee.
   
   
3. I have no attraction to smokes or booze.
   Now this is something only those close to me know well, I smoke much and drink in extremely masculine amounts with friends, colleagues or family... But I consider them only social obligations and neither enjoy nor detest them. By myself, I neither smoke nor drink.
   
   
4. I am not a sports buff.
   I enjoy watching the occasional game of football (which I do love to play though) and tennis, but ask me about standings and tourneys and names and I'm quite clueless, I find cricket utterly boring. I have watched very few of the WC matches, that too in snippets and replays.
   
   

Sikkim, through my lens.

The owner of this blog is a lazy bum who doesn't have anything to write since a month so he is trying to distract you with these photographs from his Sikkim trip... Beware!

MindCrap

So I had to sit again to string words as they came in my head? Unfortunately, yes... And unfortunately, out came these chunks of crap...

Tiny people running all over

Parkouring on your features

Soon some will want an entrance

In your mind, 

Let them in?

UnQuotes again!

Just giving this blog some of its original flavour. Watch, Measure, Sniff, but don't get too close! Here are unQuotes:

Everything's fair in love and chat.

Will I ever be the same again?

A few days back, I was just rambling at myself while on one of my usual thought-explorations... I suddenly came to a realization which left me dumbfound for a minute. It shook all of my beliefs to the core and forced me to look at everything from a fresh perspective... And far, far harder to accept than the time I had to accept that existence has no meaning other than existence itself, or than accepting that it is impossible to judge, hence trust any entity... Those were trivial compared to this one.

Thus

I,


Have
Acidic
Vines
Etched.

That feeling

That feeling,
When the ghost footsteps stop following just before you could turn.
When you know it was there right until you reached for it.
When you look up into the sky and understand there is so much that you would never understand.
When you know it was never yours anyway, but still, but still, but still, it's there.
When you realize that you're living an ersatz life.

And again, and again.

Straight from the tweet vine... compiled haiku-style! Would you like some fries with that?

Epilogue

There I was, idly sitting on the freshly mutilated body, appreciating my own handiwork. Turning around, I found the barrel of a gun pointing at my head, time slowed… I swear I saw the bullet leave the bore and hurtle toward my forehead! I kept waiting to wake up or something.

The words that built this blog.

I saw a wordle... and couldn't resist.

Here's wordle #1 which I call my Blog Egg

So?

So there I was, standing on the crossroads amidst the woods, looking at the 4-way sign, wondering which way to go... An old man came walking down the road marked 'Experience', he was all white; hair, brows, clothes. He smiled when he saw me.


I asked, "which way do I go, old man?".

The madness that goes on in my head.

Trying to document a slice of my thoughtStream...
(Note, Left to right does not matter, the streams are simultaneous, sometimes even the top-bottom precedence may overlap.)

Stream 0 (Conscious 1)	Stream 1 (Conscious 2)	Stream 2 (visual - thought)	Stream 3 (auditory)
Right, am I writing it down correctly?	Stupid TDs and TRs, Google still couldn't refine their interface properly!	Forest night, superimposed with a google logo	Like a night in the forest

Mandatory post-Birthday post

For some, it marks another year towards life, for some, it marks another year away from life... For me, it's a day. Almost like any other, except for the fact that people treat you nicely and you're expected to smile sheepishly all the time.

The power of your dirty mind!

The heart is not the only part to mightily throb,

Alcohol is not the only tool for debauchery,

The 8 things thingy

Okay I know this is out of character... but sometimes it's interesting to jump on the bandwagon ;)

Got tagged by Anish in his post so here goes:

Rut Breaker

What do you do when you are stuck in a rut?
What do you do when you just can't make the cut?
When things loop endlessly, how do you break it?
When life gets predictable, how do you take it?

Raindrops

Any pattern that forms on a window pane being pelted by cold raindrops - stays for less than a moment, and you could never see it again; this fact alone made it worth looking at. Or maybe she was just looking at it to make out shapes on the other side of it. The city streets were up and running as usual, maybe the rest of the world was as busy as it ought to be, people did seem oblivious to everything going around them. Or was she concluding that just by herself? As she couldn't, see their expressions from this high up... And the rain, it seemed endless, must have been days...
