I really do think of so many things during the day and I also want to write about it. And then the thought strikes! \u2018Who wants to listen to what I have to say?\u2019 Trying so hard to kill that thought, I come back to visit my blog and some 42 people were actually interested in what I had to say about Endhiran! 42 is a large number you see, considering it\u2019s my first blog post and I am trying to rebuild my network of followers on the blogosphere.<\/p>\n<p>Now knowing that there are people who want to read about things I think, I am going to write about a trend (not so recent but something that is absurd) that I have come to notice lately.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s start with where I got the idea. I am following Barkha Dutt on Twitter (Damn! What was I thinking!). Her introduction says \u201cnews addict.\u201d Someone I know is addicted to wordpress. <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/shrutihaasan\">Shruti Hassan<\/a> is addicted to God-only-knows-what! Just as I got past the weirdness of the various addictions, someone I met today called himself a mobile phone freak! Someone\u2019s a geek, someone a nerd, someone mad and someone else a devil. Am I the only one that notices the negative connotations that all these words possess? Since when is addiction a good thing? Cigarettes or news, any addiction is a disease! How much pride can one take in being mad! Like really! Come on now!<\/p>\n<p>Taking my eyes off my Twitter page and my mind of this thought, I left home to take a ride around the city. (Okay okay. I went to a shop nearby!) Something really interested caught my eye. The rear displays on vehicles. This alone can be made into a whole big blog. I saw this two-wheeler that said \u2018if you want to fuck your life, love a girl\u2019. I am calming down the feminist horns that are popping on my head and letting you make your judgement on this one (hard one if you know me!)<\/p>\n<p>Moving on, the number of bikes that have the ugly playboy rabbit is appalling. I knew someone who once said \u201cEven the deodorant I use is playboy. What do you expect?\u201d when he was asked if he had a girlfriend! (If you must know, he never had a girlfriend in his life!) I know someone whose bike said \u201cno mercy\u201d. The boy couldn\u2019t say \u201cno\u201d to save his life. He was the most hurt punching bag I have ever known. Wait a minute! He probably was saying \u201cNo. Mercy.\u201d Like \u201cno thank you\u201d in French! Something that he could never say to anyone at work!<\/p>\n<p>The best I have seen till date is a bike that said \u2018sadist\u2019 on it. Nothing more nothing less. Just the word sadist written on the glass over the light in the front. In a slant, a font that is quite curvy, size that can\u2019t be more than 10. Strange! Without realising it, I read it out loud and he must have heard me. He had a really embarrassed look on his face. My verdict: He deserves to be!<\/p>\n<p>Apologising very politely for all the people I have insulted (without the intention) in this post, I\u2019d like to reinstate that the point I am trying to make is that these days \u2018bad is cool\u2019. I am cool if I were a playboy (the feminist jumps out to say, if a woman sleeps around, she is a slut! Bloody double standards!). Sadism is a trait worth propaganda and addiction is to be proud of!<\/p>\n<p>Oof! I feel like I am a misfit in this generation!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just as much as I want to write a blog post every single day, I find myself stuck in a conflict of what to write about.
