The Topicless Thread

[FreeBird]

You remind me of this russian mom I knew in the US..she would say are you free this weekend, there is a nice little coffee shop over there, can we meet to discuss work. I would say, but I don't have a car..she would say no prob, I will come and pick you up. The best part of eating out with these moms is you don't have to pay for the coffee...you don't have to pay anything in cash.

I don't understand russian. I did tell her that I used to read Russian literature from raduga publications. And she told me that's interesting, and raduga means rainbow. So that is the only russian word I know because of her.

You can't beat em, join em. Soccer is more football than the American footbal(aka handegg)

I don't know why they call football football, it has nothing to do with your feet.

Fifa

Fine, you win. It's proper name is association football, but it will always be soccer to me.

Yh Tom and Jerry is still gold, i watch Pokemon during exam season I used to watch the old Ben 10 though

The old seasons, I think the first, used to air way back when I was a kid, were good.

Da. Nyet. Tuvarish. Soyuz Sovetskikh Sotsialisticheskikh Respublik. Pravda.

I used to read books by Progress Publishers. They were the USSR's outlet for promoting ideology abroad. I found some good ones in the used bookstores in Rawalpindi. Lots of books by the Russian masters, and also Gorky and lesser known Soviet writers. The books had a Spartan beauty to them.

Dodged the proverbial bullet. Due to the company having been acquired recently and the subsequent restructure, I'll now be reporting to a manager in Colorado.

I'm fine with that. Maybe I should push to move there physically. You know, to report to the manager in person, and be surrounded by mountains again. I have no ulterior motives. The green herb Colorado is famous for has absolutely nothing to do with this.

I'm not losing this job by the looks of it. as for doors, I've been trying hard to pry open some doors in the Northeast, where I would rather be. They remain steadfastly fastened, pardon the pun.

That said, Colorado would be better than Minnesota. If I do end up there I will let you know for sure

It's not a signature. I type it with every post. I've considered copying and pasting, but that lacks authenticity and would suggest a lack of conviction.

It means what it means: the inexorable maulvi juggernaut that has laid waste my beloved homeland, brainwashed an entire generation and has rendered us a pariah and a laughing stock, must be stopped.

And it is Mullah Raj, if not in effect, then in the works, if not de jure, then de facto: the Saudis casting their long sinister shadows with their stooge in office, the slaughter of innocents and minorities, young people professing love for the Taliban and half-baked notions of a theocratic utopia, Jamaatias in office in one province, Tableeghias running amok, the works.

I remember when Wall's came out with Feast in 1996, soon after the World Cup. Twenty rupees was a bit rich for me at that time, being 15 years old and cash strapped. But I has it a few times.

Then they dropped the price to fifteen rupees. So I bought it. I soon realized how they managed the price drop. The bar of chocolate in the middle was thinner and shorter than before.

It was a betrayal. I'm still not over it. Damn capitalists.

From 20 rupees feast i reminisced a childhood memory that once as a 8 or 10 year old i went with my father to buy a sacrificial goat, we came across a beautiful white goat. As a kid i always dreaded sheep and desired for a goat.
The man asked 6500 for the goat but my father offered him 6000 the last. So, as the fate would have it we still came home with a sheep and my wish unfulfilled.
