Why hang on to antiquated notions like "the soil is like my mother?" - Man

Re: Raja Sen has really lost it …..


it's also the most fearless


lol wut? It's complete masala from start to finish.

Ha-ha! I threw that *beep* before I walked in the room!

Re: Raja Sen has really lost it …..

It is the countless Raja Sens of this world that I fear. It is their general discourse and rhetoric that I fear. It is their maddening devotion that I strive against.

And for that , I get mocked by people like Vikade.

Yesterday, Rachel Dywer was in IIT Guwahati. Probably, she was providing some much needed intellectual heft to Indian Masala before an erudite yet impressionable audience.

See, statements like this is why feel the need to mock you. Why do you set yourself above these "erudite yet impressionable" audience? They can make up their own minds, just like you.

Re: Raja Sen has really lost it …..

Yeah man, what can I say? You are right.

"Why do you set yourself above these "erudite yet impressionable" audience?"

Maybe because they are 21 and i am 34 and have seen far more movies than them by now?

But then, you have far more movies than me.

Nah man, Vikade is always sincere. But he was never more sincere when to get back at me, he mocked Indians saying they suffered from schadenfreude and harbored double standards in general. Deep down, the man always hated India and Indians far more than Pitviper, who just pretends to do so.

It's not mocking when I'm stating facts. I've observed these traits many times in my family members itself, and my friends and many people in general. I'm sure I myself have displayed these traits now and then, if not frequently.

What I mocked you for was castigating Indians for this. (when you said you'll leave this accursed country)

If ever somebody says that they love India and Indians, it should be despite these flaws. Otherwise it's plain hogwash or they have some agenda.

Re: Raja Sen has really lost it …..

Hahaha. I know a person.

Re: Raja Sen has really lost it …..

Yeah, in first world countries, people can teach any sheet to earn a living.

Some of them then proceed to accuse people from other countries for schadenfreude and double standards.

I freely admit that I do suffer from schadenfreude.

As far as double standards are concerned, they lie in the eyes of the beholder.
