The Curse

I dont have too many superstitious beliefs ,there are the occasional little gimmicks i do pull out for some reason or another....which have become a part and parcel of my life....not that i want to do em but i am a little sceptical as to the part where if i dont do it like i have always done it my day will go bad....so i guess i am a little bit superstitious ......you know the things i do are like
1:gargle only by multiples of 2....
2:hammer my shoes on the floor before i put em on
3:wear the same underwear for my entire exam routine
4:not to cut me nails during me exams
5:and also not to cut me hair during the same

so for all of these "precautions" i still have this massive huge fucking curse on me....
and the curse has been going strong for the last 10 or so years.....so lets get it started

the Curse is called the "ELECTRONIC CURSE"....where for some reason whatever electrical device i own or even touch must go bust sometime or another no mater how hard i try to keep electronic gadgets safe they always go bust.......

it all started in '97 when i was in Dubai.....my first electronic thingy was a tamagochi....you know that stupid virtual pet everyone was having at that time....it was the FAD of the year and all that jazz......the thing worked like a charm but after 2 months it went bust.....and it couldnt get repaired.......fine i thought nothing massive.......

the real curse began when i came back to Calcutta....i brought my ps1 along with me after we came to cal......and wouldnt you know it right after 4 months of shifting to cal....the ps1 broke.....this was in 2002......well i thought it was fine coz i had the ps1 for like 3 years?
what the fuck how the hell did the ps1 get jacked up right after 4 months of staying in cal.....i layed the blame on me bihari relatives and the curse they put on it......

moving on.....in 2003 i got a ps2 from Dubai......WHOPPPEEEEEE......which again worked ass kickinglee good....until it went bust in around 2005.....and although it did get fixed by the "authorised sony service station" twice it broke again then i got it modded and now it broke again just a few weeks back

which leads me to the next and probably the saddest days of my life right now...
the gem of my life....the one thing i thought that wouldnt leave me....would love me no matter what.....just passed away...[actually passed away 6 fucking months ago....was in mourning]....the ps3......yeah i was lucky enough to own a ps3[thanks a ton dad] especially shipped from the US of A.......and for all my luck it was shit luck...so here we go...
the ps3 i got was a jap NTSC version which for all you NOOBs out there means that i coudlnt play any of the old ps2 original games i had coz they were the PAL european version....fair enough
i coudlnt make head or fucking tail of the manual coz it was in fucking jap......the only good thing bout the ps3 was that it wasnt a bitch to use.....it was real easy to use and plus i got the ps3 with the largest memory space...the 80 gig one.....

i got me ps3 a few months after the release of the console all around the world so as i said i was real lucky......this was in 2007 i guess maybe a little earlier ....so i was real pleased....now i bought the ps3 instead of the xbox 360 coz of the failure issues.....we all the RROD for the 360s[The RED RING OF DEATH] thats the thing that made me stay with sony...that and my stupid idiotic brand loyalty thingy........

so as i was saying a few months after my ps3 came i started reading bout some ps3s going bust.....but that was less than 1% they said......it was called the YLOD....[yellow light of death]....which meant that the ps3 is broke "a complete hardware failure".....i didnt read much into that but wouldnt you know it ....the YLOD only happened to the "JAP NTSC 80 GIG PS3S" and i had one.....and of all the things my ps3 worked great for like a year and just when it was out of the warranty zone......wham!....i get the YLOD...with Fifa 09 stuck inside the fucking blue ray drive......that shit got me real depressed....and i still havent recovered......hopefully the ps3 will get fixed as i just sent it to the sony service center today
FINGERS ARE SO FUCKING CROSSED RITE NOW!
