Over the years I clearly know that i have been a major pain in the ass for quite a few people, especially the people i decide to "friend" and get close to. I also know how many people have clearly told me that they would kill me or beat me up if they ever had the chance, to which i scoff at their remarks by saying "its a LOOOOONG line" , which to an extent is true.
People have called me a freak over the years and I take that in my stride because being freaky ain't easy but it sure is fun, invariably I end up making some person burst out in laughter or at least bring a smile to someone's face, now something that might shock you people is that this freak within me was not always there, in fact I at one stage of my life was something that i hate nowadays .....a Geek.
The proper bangalee stereotype of always studying and doing brilliantly well in school, always ranking among the top 5 and taking part in almost all of em crappy school activities,plays,sports,debates,elocution's[7 year reigning champion at my school] but then when i came back to Calcutta and utterly failed at doing well at what i was good at,because of the competition of bangalees a change took place and the real freak bonbon came out sometime in 2005
Normally I dont really like talking about geeks but an evening forced me to blog about it at least, it was the holi weekend and my parents as the usual weekend tradition goes were to have dinner at some restaurant, its a tradition that no food is cooked at my house during the weekend,kind of a thank you to my mom , so my dad tells me about this new place that he found called "Krystal Chopsticks" , i know that's not the correct spelling but hey , lets cut the place some slack as the food really was fantastic but we got a table next to another family, again no problems there.
So by the time we finish ordering then the irritation starts and i am not talking about some sort of rash in the never regions, rather it starts off with
Son #1:I don't want to go to San Francisco [in this so fake American accent]
Mom:Why not? Lets go to San Fran
Son #1:but the only thing there is the Golden gate,lets go to San Diego,its better there
and i am thinking ,you fucking gay,that's what san fran is full off,gays like you
While this was still tolerable they then went on with a 5 minute debate about where to go,while i still couldn't figure out why they wanted to go anywhere at all,because they never got to the point, by the time this crummy debate ended and i thought ,maybe i can enjoy a little piece of tranquility they then start something i never want to be near again in my life
A geek debate,you know a debate that is so geeky that it defies the logic of debating and well communication and enjoyment for lets say the masses of the non geeks
it starts off with Geek son #1,hey that rhymes!,"So who do you think contributed more to science? Einstein or Newton"
I hear this and my mind goes,WTF are you on? I mean come on its a saturday night,a fucking beautiful night,with great food and of all the things to discuss on such a beautiful time ,turd comes up with this.
People would normally shoot this down ,I mean I would have literally ripped him a new asshole ,but his mother and father started a proper debate over this,probably like the geeks they are,this went on for a good 10 minutes, I guess they even have a long nice debate about whether colgate or pepsodent uses the correct amount of fluoride in the respective toothpaste brands.
All the while i have my head in my hands and my mom asks me "whats wrong?"
i tell her that the freaks are discussing crap and Can i open my trap to shut em up,to which she naturally says "NO",because she knows of my "talent"
While the debate doesn't end the waiter comes up with the bill ,mom picks it up and starts lambasting the poor waiter
"What the hell is this,i cant read anything,its printed so lightly,what the hell?"
And i felt so bad for the bloke but then
he smiled,took the bill from the lady's hand and flipped it around,She was reading the wrong side of the bill ,EPIC PAWNAGE and THAT shut the lady up,which just proved my point that being geeky is worse than being freaky,but that you might say is just my point of view right?
well thanks to all my MBA classes i decided to hold a poll,so i put up a question as to who would you punch first if you had the chance and be completely immune from punishment
A geek or a Freak
9 out of the ten respondents said GEEK
and one person who did say "Adeem" said so because of that barnstorming result i had in my MAT exam[98.55%,don't ask me how i got it,i am just as baffled as every other person] so i count it as another vote for the geek
So there you have it a 100% vote for punching a geek anytime over a freak.
Nuff Said
