Sunday, artsomniac was as good as possible with her internet service provider. Mr Garu is a real jerk, she knows. Stories about Mr Garu is quite popular in campus. People shouting at him and switching to another upcoming service provider, cable B, is quite a common sight. What Mr Garu does for those bad sheep who goes away from his fold is, he secretly cuts the B connection cables to your room. You will realize it soon that the highly efficient new internet service is not working because of Mr Garu's wrath. The new service group is really good,it seems, as the believers testify. It charges you fifty rupee less than Mr. Garu's connection, it has a sophisticated way of working which includes sms notifications to your mobile about new services, offers and stuff, it offers kaspersky antivirus(paid one, not available for free download) absolutely free for the users. Garu on the other hand does not give a damn for you as a customer and he gives you viruses to your laptop free of cost. He thinks that he still is the feudal lord in the internet sphere on campus.
Artsomniac was going around, asking her unfortunate garu subscriber neighbors whether they too have a problem with the internet. Alas, no! She does not have company this time. From one room, a visitor Alice who was a prior customer of Garu declared: "I don't understand why you people still stick to this guy. The new service is really good. I think all of you should switch to this and chuck this Garu out of campus"
Well,artsomniac thought, "right now I dont have the deposit money required for a new connection. May be I should try him once more." And finally Mr Garu answered her call and said he will send somebody soon but that soon never happened in say three and a half days time. she was almost finishing the project she was working on, and she needed a lot of browsing now and this happened. Oh, artsomniac does not want to be the one who begs around asking permission to use internet. And when you fix your pendrive to another person's laptop, you really can hear what is in their mind. "Oh, please no viruses" because you have them aplenty with Garu's connection.
As the most calm and happy-go-lucky (Which means, If artsomniac is happy, you are lucky) person on campus who does not really pick up fights with people, she decided to wait and keep calling Mr Garu. By the second day, he stopped picking her calls, and she was there, sitting like fool, and calling and calling hoping that he must be away, he will come back, he will pick the phone, he will send the guy, she will get my connection back..nada!
The same thing happened on the third day too and rtsomniac does not know which nasty brain typed out this message from her phone to his. However, it goes like this."Mr Garu, I just want to disconnect my internet. Please do not come and meet me for money. You are supposed to give me back my initial deposit. On second thoughts, I think you should keep the change since I do not like to encourage any sort of communication ever with you. Thank you for the wonderful services." And then, there is no news from him.
artsomniac has decided to switch to cable B once she is done with formatting her laptop out of the viruses she has acquired so far. she never thought that she could send such a sophisticated nastiness as an sms. Artsomniac generally is a 'nice' person,you know. he he...

The very bad sheep
While thinking about Religious Fundamentalism in India, one would always think about either Hindu Fundamentalists or Muslim Fundamentalists. Christians, in popular understandings were considered to be always the good lot, portrayed mostly in "White", and always associated with good things like Educational Institutions, Hospitals and the like. But these days, when I closely watch the Christian Spirituality Hysterias in You tube, I feel that there are even worse Fanatics and Fundamentalists in Christianity. Wait a minute, was that guy's name Jesus who was talking something long back about being a good Samaritan? And was that the same guy who said something like "'Love your neighbor as yourself." May be I should go back to my scriptures and see whether he has added a clause at the end which went unnoticed by me. Something like, " Love your neighbor as yourself...only when he baptizes himself as a Christian."
You can watch this link as a comedy video as well, but the character in the post is not fictitious. He is a 100% original Pastor from Kerala. Look how dangerous his depictions are. All those who cannot understand Malayalam can read the translation of his words below.
"...An Indian is the one who has light inside him. Now let us look at our national flag. On the top, we can see Saffron, bottom Green, and in the middle, White. What is this saffron? It denotes braveness and courage. Which means the saffron guys can beat, stamp or murder people. But the green is a different thing. It denotes the prosperity of our Indian Nation. Which means, the guys in green are the ones who have lots of money with them. But the white in the middle,you know, is us! Halleluiah! Have you all understood? I am praising the lord for all those who have understood this. I am praising the lord to bring White right in the Middle. Glory to the lord who has brought white to the middle of the National Flag. Its not over. Do you know the Chakra? Ashoka Chakra? The symbol of power? It is on White! God did not give it neither to Green nor to White. God gave it only to White! Glory!!! Do you want to hear more? It is called A-shoka Chakra. Shokam means Sadness/Suffering. A-Shokam means your suffering will end. So if you want your suffering to end, you should come to White. Even if you are Green or Saffron, if you want your sufferings to end, you should come to White. Halleluiah!!! I am praising the lord for those who have understood this thing... Tonight you should come to White, which means you should come to Jesus Christ. Without coming to Jesus, you wont get the Light! Praise the lord!! Amen!!!"
Who on earth found Religions? It was such a bad idea!
