Just junior things

“Dei appa..”
“Ennada”
“Idha open panni kudu”

In this lock down kalebaram junior’s school had issued notebooks to justify their pagal kollai of a fees. For LKG kid they had given 6 notebooks and some textbooks with a nano bit of a rubber and micro bit of a chalk piece thrown in. Junior was super excited as he now had new things to tear and throw. He was told very clearly by mom that he should never ever tear school note books. It has held for one hour so far which is a world record in itself. Coming to the topic, junior was very curious to see the rubber packed in a wrapper. The conversation continues.

“Idhu eraser..chalk piecela ezhutthinathulaam azhikathu”
“oh..appo crayons?”
“No”
“Color pen”
“No..only pencil ezthinathu thaan azhikum”
“open panni kudu?”

I know the minute it gets unwrapped within seconds the eraser would reach veera swargam. I told him “ithu open panna kaathula karanjirum. So wrap panniye irukatum”
He left the room and went to hall.  After a minute came back and said “anga vanthu open pannu..naan fan off paniten..kaathu varaathu”
!!!!! avvvvvvvvvv….ipovay kannu katuthay..

Ha ha ha. Kids these days! We better think we'll before we speak!

By the way, I have been reading your blogs for quite a few years now. You write amazingly well :) especially the short stories. And oh, the American diaries with all your flight travel paridhabangal is oh so brilliant.

Best romantic dialogues..EVER

Love and Freedom of expression in times of Sena wud've been apt title for this post :) Thought i would watch MNIK and post its review to show my protest. Since i couldn't i settled for watching re-runs of the usual mushy movies which they show year after year in Star and HBO. I was waiting for Nottinghill, Harry met sally, Autumn in NY, Sweet November, You've got mail and Pretty woman. Surprisingly except for the last one, none of the other movies featured in any of the channels!!! Maybe the channel guys themselves got bored :D Anyways..these movies have become part and parcel of my movie watching gene that i've mugged up most of their dialogues by now :D Here are some for you to cherish and enjoy. Without googling..let me see how many of these you can identify and how many more you could add :) " I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out, I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich, I love that you get a little crinkle above your no...

Enna koduma saaar ithu!!!!

We are a group of 5 who share our apartment. Usually me and one more guy are the last to the leave the house everyday morning. Yesterday, the one who used to leave first for office, didnt come home till 11. I went to sleep after the usual book reading session at around 11.30. When i woke up i saw it was only me who was still lying on the mat while even the guy who leaves for office along with me, had already started folding his bed!! I was feeling very tired and sleepy and was in two minds whether i should take off or go late. Still managed to crawl..brushed teeth half sleeping and swtiched on the geyser. I turned back to see, suddenly it was pitch dark outside the bathroom!! Since the light was On inside, it wasnt power cut and i came out to see what was wrong. The guy who folded his bed, had moved to the hall and was again asleep!! Then only i noticed, it was dark outside the balcony too!!! I checked the time. It was 3AM!!! BOOOOHOOOOOOO!!! SOB SOB SOB!!! That useless guy afterwards ...

Babies day out :D

Last sunday went for my friend's kid 2nd bday party. They had invited all their neighbours and other friends to club it as a getogether event. In 2 days time their kid had grown so fond of me that the moment he saw me came running to me and took me to his new friends for intro :) I dunno what he told them in his broken language. But considering the after effects i guess it must've been something like below. "Yaruda ithu" one of the kids ask this guy "machaan..oru allakkai maatirukaan..freeya irunthena sollu..aala paatha anju farex dabbava oray gulpla adikaravan mathiri irukaan..evlo imsai pannalum thaanguvaan nenakren" "apdiya..test panni pathiruvom" Ten thousand blue blistering barnacles and thundering typhoons to all those parents who didnt come to the resuce of hapless gils. Adutha 1 hour..thenara thenara gummi. One is pulling my specs..another one climbing on my shoulders..two of them playing sarukku maram on my legs..one scientist kid did some...
