Certain posts on FB can really kill you. Like this girl who posted this on FB- 'My skul has been voted the best skul in India'. Shame that they did not teach her to spell 'School' at her 'Skul'. Seriously some of the status messages are so dumb. This girl I know had posted a message to her husband on FB that she has posted a letter which he wanted her to post. This is her message- 'Hi I posted the letter'. Seriously this is as silly as it can get. If she wanted to convey that she completed a task to her husband, why would she not text or call or mail him? Why message on his FB page.

This other girl posted 'Have a nice day' as her status message. And two people 'liked' it! The worst was today's news on Viewspaper's page about Azaruddin's son dying in a road accident. 110 people 'liked' the news!!

you stole my topic today!.. I was going to vent out myself.. seriously!.. FB status updates has become a full time comedy. I feel sad about people's ignorance!.. they reveal so much of personal stuff in the name of status updates!.. at the end, no body gives a sh*t!!..

seriously, the skuls should start teaching Social networking etiquette to the crowd.

I feel it is ones prerogative to shorten words. At the same time, I do agree that I wouldn't have stood this if it were on an official communication (say a Govt. gazette) :-P. While the FB likes are seriously infectious.

@A- I C dat U'v short'nd 'should' 2 'shld' in ur response. U r alrdy infected :D. Just kidding.

FB is a place to Show-off. That is why those likes, comments , friends list...etc etc. Our human ability to communicate has shrunk.

@P n P- Maybe we are growing too old :p

@Archana- Ya exactly, we are abe to reveal the most personal things to the world while not being able to make conversation to the person sitting next to us.

@Kris- Ya, the world is perhaps changing too much for our liking. Welcome to the blog btw :)

Dear Dow Chemicals, You have yet to compensate the victims of the Bhopal Gas Tragedy. You have a moral and financial obligation towards the victims and their descendants. How the hell are you are sponsoring the London Olympics? And just because the original plant was bought over by another entity does not entitle the new entity to go scot free. Dear Indian Government, Why is that you are ready to take steps against a person/ entity/ group only when the whole world creates a hue and cry? Lakhs of Indians are still physically and mentally affected by the exposure to the gas leak on that fateful night of December 1984. Your own citizens. Today is the 26th of January, our Republic Day. But I feel no pride. The real pride lies when the Government and its people work towards the safety and welfare of its citizens. Dear Anderson, Still alive and kicking, really?

There are some moments in life when you actually feel that your childhood (probably not the right word) has come to an end. When you feel you cant behave like a brat and expect people to say- oh she’s just a kid. Being the youngest in my family and also at my work place, I never thought of myself as a grown up. Even when I started earning. Yesterday I met one of my closest friends & childhood playmate. She’s getting married and leaving the country in a few days . I knew it all along but when I said bye to her yesterday , it finally sunk into me that everything is changing. The house where we spent countless days playing choppu and other invented games is going to belong to someone else soon. God, I’l never forget those days. And it’s horrible to know it’l never come back.
