Lights down, you up and die.

As he sipped his warm water, Oshi narrated an incident. A client had once expressed relief that his brand was in good hands because Oshi knew exactly what he was doing.

To which Oshi had snickered and said, Well I don’t really, but if it’s working toh theek hai na.

I realised, much to my surprise, that I’ve been creative-directing my life exactly like that. (Moment of Enlightenment happened.) All those years of working with him clearly left some sort of influence.

Now I know how it feels to be an MTV Promo.

These are a few of my most-disliked things.
  1. People who go on and on about their better halves or halves-to-be. Please, I’m not interested in knowing on a daily basis what an awesome dal-khichdi he makes for you or how much your mother loves the mole on the right side of her upper lip. And anyone who is, deserves to die.
  2. People who refer to their partners as ‘hubby’ or ‘wifey’ or ‘baby’. Don’t they have names or you just like to belittle them by referring to them in mundane, impersonal terms?
  3. Exclamation marks. I hate the damn things.
  4. The three dots at the end of a sentence that a lot of people use to imply that there’s more to the sentence than meets the eye, or something. Hello, it doesn’t work. Grow a sense of humour, or half a brain, or try becoming more articulate instead, or if you don’t have anything to say, then don’t pretend like you do.
  5. People who introduce two friends with a ‘By the way'. By the way, x this is y, y this is x. Thanks for setting this introduction up like an unnecessary afterthought.
  6. People who feign nonchalance. Like, do you know where this movie is showing? Eh, there’s a newspaper in your hand, bitch. Look up ‘Entertainment’. You cannot pretend to be nonchalant – if that was a word, it’d be an oxymoron.
  7. People who post bad poetry on their blogs and then respond to comments justifying why they wrote it and what it meant. Cracks me up.
  8. People who refer to Jon Bon Jovi as Bon Jovi.
  9. People who love to take the mickey when it comes to other people but can never take a joke on themselves. Lighten up, or shut up.
  10. People who moan about the most irrelevant things. Shit man. I wanted to have sushi but I just heard that the cook at Ling’s pavillion is Indian. Ok dude. Here’s the deal. Sushi is Japanese. Ling’s Pavillion is a Chinese restaurant. China is different from Japan. And sushi is fish. And you’re vegetarian.
