Go Crazy..Write a Blog

               My blogging cycle works like this: An idea occupies my mind, I get obsessed with the idea, pour it out in my blog and then torture dozens of my poor friends to read it and forcefully make them say it is good. Then laziness prevails for few months before the cycle begins all over again.

                Today was one such day when the cycle should have begun. I had a couple of ideas in mind that I had to write about when I, fatefully, asked my bro for his opinion. He came up with the idea of me, not him, writing stories/posts on my blog and publishing it as a collection. His logic was if Chetan Bhagat and Amish can do it, why can’t I? I am also a Tech+MBA. But I am more of an analyst than a creative thinker, for which my bro came up with the catchphrase of the day,” If you dont try, you will never know what you are capable of”. Then began a deeply intellectual conversation that would put Raghuram Rajan and Albert Einstein to shame.

                So what follows is an initial list of what all one can write in a blog. 

The “Awwww.. How Romantic” Type:

                This series would have stories like “How I almost fell in love”. This is especially for people like who never fell in love but would somehow try to exaggerate every flirt of his into a looonngg and romantic love story, like the day a girl asked me if she had lost weight and I told her the truth. There can also be stories like “Why I never fell in love”, but this is for those guys who have been dumped by more than half a dozen girls. The focus should be on showing that you are above petty things like love, that you are more focused on your career or that girls are stupid.

The  “Fail!! Fail!!.” Series

                These posts can have titles something like “Falling in Love is no easy business” which is especially for those people who have always been ready to fall in love but no girl even registered his existence or every girl considered him a brotherly friend. This would be primarily because of getting tongue-struck in front of girls or the inability to stop talking the truth. Another post can be “Be a man and start crying” which is for those souls who pour out their feelings on blog because no one listens to them. Being drunk is a prerequisite for this. There is a breed of shameless men who just don’t realize the “Fail!! Fail!!” moment and carry on life as always. This can be titled, “Fallen down..no sand in moustache”. You need to be proud of your moustache to completely appreciate the title.

                For people who are screwed/insulted/failed/embarrassed in whatever they do, there is a special idea which can be named, “Hit me above the belt, please”.

The “appo, naan than out aa?” series: Roughly translates to “I am screwed, my friends are not“

                This is especially for MBAs who use none of what they studied in their work (“MBA is empty business”) or imagine they actually apply their learning (“6 reasons why you need to do an MBA”). There is also a very small breed of MBAs who work in factories wearing uniforms and are jealous of everyone else. This is for them-“Uniformed MBA in a techie world”. One common thing among all these is that these people realize that their friends without MBA have achieved more than them. 

 The “Go crazy.. Write a Blog” series:

                Finally there is this type of post that one can write called the “Go Crazy.. Write a Blog” where you write shit about nothing and waste a few mins of everyone’s life reading it, like I just did.

                Well, my brother had to go shopping, else I would have written a book on a 100 more ideas.

                Any praises (hopeless scenario) or any brickbats for this blog post are reserved exclusively for my bro.
