Err…

Link

  • Why is this 'News'?
  • Why do they even have these statistics?
  • Why did this merit a graph?
  • Why the FUCK is this on MARKET WATCH?!

Multi-Purpose, All-Occasion Greeting Cards?!!!

Ok, the foil stamped boxes are good… really good. BUT what the fuck!!

The entire point of giving a card… the sentiment behind this action - is to AT LEAST give the illusion that SOMEONE cares enough to have bothered to find (or make) a card with the right words / message that could reflect the feelings or how special the occasion is or how much you mean to him/her.

A 'Tick The Appropriate Box' card is defeating the whole point of GIVING THE CARD!

Laanat hai. Thu….

Cheating Dishonestly !?!

IPC 420 - Cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property - How the fuck does that get shortened to 'Cheating dishonestly'???

If you HAVE TO truncate the section title/expansion then AT LEAST MAKE SURE IT MAKES SENSE! Is that too much to ask?!

Fucking retards!

The Player (Updated)

Definitely over the top, but the 2 episodes I watched were intriguing/interesting enough.


27 minutes into Episode 3. Too OTT. No longer intriguing. Definitely NOT interesting.

A good watch. Enjoyable.

The Shiv Sena says it is opposed to any engagement with Pakistan as long as the country supports terror.

Just saying…

If one is of the view that the black paint attack on Sudheendra Kulkarni was a valid/acceptable form of expression of 'patriotism' and opposition to Pakistan, then why isn't anyone suggesting that Narendra Modi should also have his face painted black? He did invite Nawaz Sharif to the swearing in ceremony, didn't he?

Chutiye bhare hue hain humaare desh mein. The ones who couldn't become politicians ended up becoming 'journalists / editors / anchors'.

While it would be better if one doesn't go about spitting in public, BUT JUST IN CASE one HAS TO spit in some Indian metro station… then it would be in ones relative interest to claim that one can not read Hindi.

Perhaps the central government (to further its objective to promote the Hindi language) should issue another directive to significantly reduce the fine amount mentioned in Hindi.

The Contract

I am not even going to bother with the poster for this one.

The start was a bit disappointing but it was still tolerable. Until Nick Dayton (played by Robert Fucilla) makes his entry. Pathetic. The film becomes intolerable at that point and I had to switch it off.

Don't bother.

Har Haqeeqat Majaaz Ho Jaaye

Faiz…

Har haqeeqat majaaz ho jaaye
Kaafiron ki namaaz ho jaaye

Dil rahin-e-niyaaz ho jaaye
Bekasi kaarsaaz ho jaaye

Minnat-e-chaarasaaz kaun kare
Dard jab jaan navaaz ho jaaye

Ishq dil mein rahe tou rusvaa ho
Lab pe aaye tou raaz ho jaaye

Lutf ka intezaar kartaa huun
Jor taa hadd-e-naaz ho jaaye

Umr be-sud kat rahi hai 'faiz'
Kaash ifshaa-e-raaz ho jaaye

The Blacklist - Season 3

A very disappointing start to Season 3. Was expecting something MUCH better.

Barely qualifies as 'mediocre'.

Bajrangi Bhaijaan

Surprisingly good. I did find this entertaining. I wouldn't term the film as 'ground breaking' or anything, but it was a pleasant watch and a relatively well made film.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui impresses yet again with a wonderful performance.

Another surprise in this film - Kareena Kapoor somehow managed to avoid being her intolerable annoying cunt-ish self. Well done! Not that the performance was brilliant or anything, but it wasn't ticking off. THAT (in my view) is a significant achievement for Kareena Kapoor.

Mission Impossible - Rogue Nation

Another unnecessary and pointless mission from the Mission Impossible franchise. Very limited entertainment value (for me) and a rather pointless plot-line.

The Devotion of Suspect X - Keigo Higashino

Thanks Surya! A very thoughtful gift indeed. Thank you so much.

A wonderful read. A compelling read. Page turner. Impressive. Up to the very last page! Well… I hated the last page, but that's a different story.
