IrRiTaNt...

its the first Lovely sunny clear sky day since last week...may soon turn into a rainy gloomy day though...or so the weather forecasts...wish it woudnt...gloomy weathers just make things worse for an already unhappy person...i guess its a general thing...well at least i dnt feel like doin anythign..but lazing around in bed...tucked in my blanket...and looking out the window at the incessant sheets of rain...and the occassional....flashes of thunder ( on a bad storm day) make me squeal and block my ears....

I used to find thunderstorms intriging as a kid...wasnt scared...and would actually run out in the rain...the infamous KaLbAiSaKhI....(people from kolkata would knw the pleasure of being outside during a kalbaisakhi)...aka norwesters.....till my granma told me about a little girl who used to do the same and got struck by a lightening bolt when she was outside on such an occassion...i avoid them since then...

oh well today while i was on the morning train to work...there was a bunch of asian school girls who were discusssing what irritated them the most....quiet an interesting discussion it was....and when i happened to mention at to some my colleagues this topic later on...everyone came up with so many different things that irritated them...

For instance....i get damn irritated when people try to tell me all the time what i should or should not do...nd oh i get irritated by constant repetitive noises....it could be the music that plays on pc or mobile games...or the constant buzzing of insects...or someone tapping away at a keyboard....in an otherwise completely silet ambience....it drives me crazy..all these repetitive noises around.....

What makes it to the top of the list is DuMbArSe Forward chain letters...i mean not the ones that have like fruit art...or scary videos nd things ..but the ones that say a story..or relate an incident and then ...ask u to scroll down....and end like...

"blah...blah....blah...."....if u forward this letter to 5 people u get a phone call from someone in 5 mins with some godo news...if u frward to 10 people u will have good luck coming ur way and will be here to stay for a year...blah...blah....and if u dont forward it at alll then bad luck will strike...and something really terrible will happen to you....so pass it on...."

i mean...i dont get it how people can be so dumb as to even read through them and pass it on...(im ashamed i actually used to do that a long time back...donno what i was thinkin...)and then bilieve in them and forward them and expect whatever it says to happen....MaN!!!

O and the bloody emails i keep getting all the time...abt drugs to increase ur organ sizes...or silica implants....i have tried unsubcribing from these mailing list a million times....i dont knw or understand where the hell they manage to get my email id from....i mean...i check my yahoo every fortnite i guess...and i get 20 to 30 of these junk emails..inspite of my spam guard being turned on...pisses me offf....but i have given up...nothing seems to stop them...from telling me how i shld go for the "miracle Drug" to enlarge things.....

one of my friends at work....was talking about how she got a mail narrating teh incident about

...."a girl(say A) who was in love very much in love with a guy (say B)...and now A was expecting that B would propose to her soon...so one day B asked A out...and fro some reason A thought this was D-day....but B drove her out to a bridge and they got out stood there looking at the sunset...and B broke the silence by saying he doesnt think shes the rite one..and that they should call it off....A was heart broken...and ran home and committed suicide...and when A'a parents got to know that their only daughter is dead they coudnt handle the grief and committed suicide as well....and apprently later on the "girl" well i guess the revengeful spirit they mean....came out of the drain pipe at B;s place and killed B while he was in the shower....."

welll and guess what ...the mail ends with...."if you dont forward this mail on...then she ll come down your drain pipe and kill you tooo.....but if you forward this mail on...shell be happy and leave you alone..."

i mean...how lame is that...how on earth would A know that i didnt forward the mail on??is she some sort of geek....a cyber geek spirit...who can hack into your system and see who you are emailing....and R who related this incident goes...well i know its dumb..but i was thinking what if its true...and there actaully is a Spirit of A looking out for people who didnt forward that email...and what if she come down the drian pipe to pay me a visit....I coudnt controll my laughter when she said that.....i was pretty much fell of my chair and choked over my glass of water......i guess everyone has similar expiriences to share...i guess any joe blow would...
