did someone buzz ,by any chace???

In the previous post I said something about THE thing… you could call it a once-in-a-lifetime experience coz well, I got ragged.. and teased… and all this in front o a huge crowd of both seniors and first yrs…
It all started with Calibrations, the college’s talent search for us lesser mortals.. Something like cultural events complete with quiz, dumb c, JAM, etc… so like a very good gal I signed up for 4 events… I was eliminated from 2 and thus had to decide between JAM and quiz as the events somehow overlapped.. JAM was something I wanted to take part in simply bcoz I never had!! And ppl encouraged me more saying ‘its damn tough’!
So I somehow gathered 5 ppl(we require 6 speakers) and begged the JAM moderator to have us 5 gals for the last and final round of prelims.. now here I would like to introduce the JAM mod to all.. popularly known as ‘baggy’( wont be using real names here) he’s a third yr guy who generally does this kinda thing like conducting JAMs and stuff… now these mods are known to be notorious coz the game demands it…

Stage 1
So we had the prelims… it ended up being an all gals one… and the topic? ‘Women cant mind their own business coz they don’t have a mind and they have no business’… now don’t ask me wat I spoke abt it or wat is supposed to be spoken… but I kicked ass! I figured only 2 of us actually knew the rules… but I don’t know wat happened to me.. I kept attacking baggy for the topic calling him a chauvinist and basically making him regret for chosing it… and reminding him he had 5 speaker’s, all gals, to deal with…
So once it got over ( and baggy being warned every time I entered the hall)I got compliments for ‘speaking nonsense and good crap’ and thus I entered the much-feared JAM finals…

Stage 2
Round one: standard JAMmin: thus the jam finals began with ‘radioactive cats have 18 half lives’… but it would be injustice if I don’t tell you about the eccentric and whoa person, who somehow got to the finals of almost every event and won loads of cash and who was a sure winner here too.. too jumpy and mr-know-it-all… but hey! Don’t we all love em??
So my dear friend shall be reffered to as speaker#2… for lack of a better nick…
So the first round went by with all of us buzzing each other for all sorts of objections(late start being the most common and baggy’s most hated!) and every time my objection was sustained the snrs went oooo… hah! Being teased with baggy! Sigh!!!!
Round 2:r world: ok if r world is wat ur thinking it is, then sorry guys! You wish!!
The r world round, very simply put by baggy, is where u don’t ask wat r means… once u buzz someone you have to come forward and do wat them snrs ask u too.. in effect: ragging! And that too, in front of a crowd of teachers,1st yrs and snrs…No prizes for guessing the r…. ! speaker#2, the most loved one, had to go forward 6-odd times.. and was made to do stuff like carry a plastic box on his head like a woman getting water from a river.. he really shook his ass! And some even forgot their objections by the time they had finished ‘getting jiggy with it’…
So it was my turn to buzz someone and be the donkey… so I went forward… cat calls and oooo’s filled the room coz now the crowd figure out that something had happened sometime and I was to be teased with him! So at first they asked me to explain to him wat the topic was in the prelims(word seemed to have gotten arnd real fats abt the prelims)…
Very stupid but he was embarrassed… and wen I buzzed and had to enter the ‘r world’ again I was asked to sing happy b’day to baggy!! So I sang… and got loads of ooo’s and claps for the ‘happy b’day dear baggy’ part…. I didn’t get extra points for it even!!

Round 3:rhyme round: not very simple! Given a topic(for this it was : ooin ooin was a piggy who crossed the railway track… chug chug came the train.. and all that was left was peanut butter… !! yikes!!) each sentence had to rhyme with the next.. speaker#2 started off with there was a pig and a duck.. but got buzzed.. now wouldn’t the crowd want to know wat rhymed with that sentence???

Round 4:ping round: topic: 2 kids were caught by the police, one for drinking battery acid and the other for eating fireworks… one was charged while the other let off!!(got it??)
So here, each word should be followed with a ping.. and u can be buzzed for not saying a ping after each word.. wat a pain! But it was ping ping all the way!!
Here evrytime a speaker objects you’ll have to say ooooo baggy before the objection… when it was my turn, the crowd waited for my very emotionless ooo baggy… look at my luck!!!
So that was THE thing I wanted to talk abt.. I’ll have to wait till Tuesday for anymore ooo’s and cat calls from snrs… and my future encounters with baggy?? God knows!!!!
On that note I finish off… but of course.. not to forget… OOOOO BAGGY!

guess who's back....

The last blog was posted long time ago when the earth was still young… but then I’m back after a stint wit… well.. that, y’all, is THE thing I wanna write about…
I did make a mention about corporate dossier and et madras plus… the thrice to twice a week supplement so generously provided by eco times,the newspaper most lovingly called ‘the drab yellow thing’ (no offense to y’all workaholics). It’s just that the papers’ are perfect for those on the run coz they’re full of info but sadly they expose their kinda humor(or shall I say the lack of it). Lemme enlighten you on it..
There’s this artcle called ‘arre o sambaar!’… he writes about stuff like harry potter mania (much to my anger the book was rechristenend hairy farter!!) and about how tamilians end up NASA and the like coz we love to curse each with ‘NASAma po!!!’ Humorous??!…. Kinda, but very wry!! And there’s this other article called ‘a lil’ bit of’ and there’s a pic of a winking cow. This one’s also quite ‘humorous’ (if I can call it that) with the author conversing with his alter ego called Hobbes…. That’s the Mercedes-drivin-blueberry-carrying- Raymond-clad-drab-yellow-thing-clutching corporate’s humor for u!!!
