Oh Britney, Britney. When did you become so... stupid? Or is it that you were always stupid and I ignored it because of the rhythmic way in which your hips sway and the.... (drooling). Anyway, here it is, her retarded quote.
Most Retarded Celeb Quote
"Everything is going so well lately -- it literally brings me to my knees."
-Britney Spears, and I don't know how many fellatio jokes I can insert in this space

I was taking the cab to work today, and there was a hold up in traffic. Usually it's someone's car broken down. Not today. As I looked ahead, I noticed that it was a fender bender (at max-- no actual damage to people there), but that there were people outside arguing. I can see this happening in the US, definitely. There's that initial, "AY! What the hell did you just do?! Now gimme your insurance card while I call the police." It's either that or, "Dude are you okay?? Now gimme your insurance card while I call the police."
No such thing here. In general, any time two cars hit each other it's like, "Ah damn. Well I guess we'll have to go get that fixed, huh. Alright peace out." No calling the cops, no insurance card, and maybe an exchange of phone numbers.
But back to today. The arguing was pretty heavy, and one dude was DEFINITELY pissed. His face was ready to throw someone around, and hands were pointing frantically towards the other driver. And then, out of nowhere, he PUNCHED THE CRAP out of the other guy. This was just as the cab happened to be passing by, and he sort of paused to watch. Of course all of us inside were enrapt as well.
And that's when I noticed-- there was a crowd of people on the side watching these people fighting. There was my driver and my co-workers staring. And all of us... we wanted to see blood. We wanted to hear the crunch (or at least see it) with these two people, preferably with someone being damaged. Is this what the Roman coliseums were all about? Why are we so intrigued by the possibility of blood and pain? Is it because it's out of the ordinary? Or is it much more primal and we want to know who the survivor will be in the 'survival of the fittest'?
I felt repulsed that I was watching this with such fascination. I turned back and stared back at the front of the cab, and the driver decided to continue driving. But I couldn't help but wonder, 'Have we become any more civilized at all? Is there really any evolution of thought that has happened in the thousands of years we've been around?'
Who knows.

HAHAHAHAHA. You know, it's not very often that you read stuff on the internet that truly makes you laugh, or in my case, even chuckle. This definitely did it for me. It's The Absolute Bottom 50 Children's Books.
Enjoy.
Enjoy.
Well here it is... the day that Kavi's finally leaving. Was sort of hoping that it would just go away if I didn't deal with it, and I don't know that I'll totally get it until a little while from now. I'll probably be like, "Hey you've been gone for 3 weeks! Isn't it time to come back to Bangalore from Delhi, silly?"
On other news, I've become one of the two people assigned to a newsletter at Microsoft. It showcases things that are going in the US and such, and I find it interesting. But here's the caveat: it's really damn hard to find news that's solely relevant to the US that's not depressing as hell. I mean, I COULD talk about the runaway bride, only to further the sentiment that Americans are odd, I COULD talk about the two best friends that were killed by the father of one of them and then depress the hell out of everyone. So what else do I do? I have to, very carefully, write fluff pieces that have some relevance. When I do the Entertainment section that becomes easier, but when I have to do a "Serious News Article"??
I FINALLY GOT MY V DASH! What does that mean? That means that I finally have a Microsoft email address. Email me and I'll tell you what it is. It's retarded to put it on here bc you'll get a lot of junk mail when the search bots find you. (Doesn't that sound all Matrix-y?)
Peas!!
