Mash Mash Mash

There are a very few things in life which im obsessed about and its not just obsessed its OBBBBSSSSSEESSSSEEEDDD.

One of them is Liverpool Football Club.

I can write pages about thier history and about how they are the most sucessful club in England, and the best english club in europe.

But lets stick to the present.

Last nite was Real Madrid vs Liverpool at the Santiago Bernabeu. Liverpool were without Steven Gerrard(about whom im gonna write a blog soon). 

Fernando Torres was injured in the game and generally people tend to visualize Liverpool as an ordinary side without Gerrard and Torres. Think again. Yossi Benayoun scored the winner as the Reds won 0-1 and have a precious away goal.

Well thers this tiny Argentinian guy called Javier Mascherano who plays defensive midfield. He was the best guy on the park for me. Amazing ball winner, tackles hard, gets the ball outta players feet, sets up counters. In short brilliant. People love watching goals, I do too but thers something about a hard crunch tackle which is fair and not many people can do it cleaner than Mash.

Hats off Mash you're superb.

Come March the 10th Madrid come to anfield a place which Liverpool havent lost for over a year. Things look really rosy for the reds

What is Indian culture?

I know I know this is one of the topics which should be in a philosophy book or a sanyasi or someone should be preaching about it.

But Ive been reading the papers for the last few days and if you have too then you'll find it relevant.

You see this bunch of losers called Ram Sene has come out of nowhere claiming they "know" Indian culture.

The head dude has 50 odd criminal cases pending against him and hes roaming free on bail. But wait Im not gonna bitch about the Indian administrtaion how much it sucks and bla!!

These idiots think they know Indian culture. But what is Indian culture for starters??

Yes its the oldest culture in the world and bla but wait thers more to it. If you rip open Indian culture you'll find there are hundreds, thousands possibly millions of cultures all intertwined with one another. Indian culture has evolved over the years by allowing people of other cultures to settle and then getting a leaf out of thier culture and making it part of thier own.

HISTORY LESSON: It was the dravidian culture, then came the Aryans, cultures mixed and a new culture evolved. Then came a varitey of cultures from east asia, china, persia and the middle east. Then came the british and imposed a bit of thier culture on us.

The indian culture has just been a mixing of these various cultures each with its own variation.

HISTORY LESSON ENDS

Now the problem with the Ram Sene is that probably these guys never took thier schooling seriously and flunked it which is why they are doing what they are. :P

But seriously these guys are living in the 1500s?? The whole worlds a smaller place today and mixing of cultures is just a routine thing. These guys need a kick in the ass to remind them of that.

The worst part is that they're a bunch of 50 odd losers who are pobabl doing this shit cuz some politician is filling his pockets and they get all they media attention in the country. I mean cmon thers a billion and a half people in India and some 50 odd dumfucks from the 1500s are causing trouble. Thrwo them behind bars. Beat the shit out of them. 

The guy's got a problem if women drink because its not in our culture?? Who in the fucking world is he to decide what is "our" culture?? I doubt if the illiterate dumfuck can decide his own culture whether its barbaric or savage. 

Hes got a problem with valentine's day. Well I think i know why. He was a loser at school so he probably never had a girlfriend so he never got laid. Obviously he flunked school so he never got into college so no chicks for him there. Or even if he did get into by paying a enormous amount of his dads money, he was probably the biggggggest turn off in his college.

Today its drinking and valentines day. Tomorrow hes gonna come and break my ipod cuz im listening to metallica and ask me to listen to yakshagana songs?? Mayb a week later he'll ban Jockey underwear cuz they dont figure in the vedas?? Mayb two weeks later they'll ban computers and laptops and as us to do calculations using and abacus???

Its about time these guys were made to shut the fuck up and locked up in prison

Something that ill never understand

MuthIts beena while since i posted lasted maily cuz i was busy with my RF reciever for IIT Bombays Techfest. That was an experience in itself which ill write about some othertime.

A coupla days bac I was at Panjim doing some sponsorship work for my college fests. I was at a chat shop called Chat Street talkin to the manager guy when a gang of girls walked in.

One of the girls was carrying a bunch of papers and they fell down. Now what would u do when something of that sort happens?? U turn and look at what happened. 

Thats wat I did just like any normal person would, nothing intentional about it just normal reaction.

Now this girl thinks that im trying to look down her shirt, gets all concious and pulls it up and stuff.
For the next 10 odd minutes shes givin me wierd looks.

The minute I walked out of that Chat shop I was irritated. Is this the way all women look at men? That they've got nothing else to do other than peek??

Then I got back to my hostel and was watchin the news when I saw that some women had been molested in a pub at Mangalore by a bunch of losers who cant accept that women also can drink.

I realised that its because of these sonsabitches that every Indian girl is insecure bout herself.
They call themselves Sri Ram Sena , watever in the world thats supposed to mean cuz im sure molesting women is not something you do in Gods name.

You read today in the papers bout the atrocities of people like Raj Thackeray, Muthalik and the other bastards who think only thier culture is right. I think its about time the public shows our politicians and the police and all the administrative shit the middle finger and take these mentally retarded fanatics to task. Kill them if you have to cuz they have killed.

Again today morning I was watching the news and I saw the Muthalik or watever his name is guy has 48 cases against him many amounting to murder and hes gonna be let off on bail??

Now that I think of it I dont blame that girl in the chat shop for what she did.
But then again there are good guys in this world and I hope that women dont brand all men to be of the same kind.

Gunners or whiners :part 2

This blog is again bout arsenal. And for all those gunners out there who are pissed off bout my last post well take it easy this one's different.

Well for all thier whining and moaning I have enjoyed watching arsenal play over the years. Although I loathed watching them win I admired the football that the combination of players like Bergkamp, Viera, Pires, Henry and Ljunberg put together. 

The reason Arsenal are struggling today is cuz they've failed to replace these guys. Wenger took arsenal to new highs but now i think hes ruined it. For me Fabregas is the only player who is of the same calibre of the above mentioned players. 

I mean compare Adebayor and Henry. Cmon even arsenal fans will admit that its a no comparison.

I also think it was a mistake building the emirates stadium. Yes Arsenal can seat more fans now but they're outta cash to bring in players of quality. Its only a matter of time before Cesc packs his bags and heads for some spanish club mostly Barca cuz thats whr arsenal have sold some of thier players like Henry and Hleb.

Wenger has to act sooner or later and get his team out of trouble or elz thers only one direction arsenal are gonna go. Down.

But thers speculation that Mr. Wenger himself might pack his bags and leave a hapless arsenal to go to the Bernabeu. Interesting if that happens.......................................................................

The thin line.........

Growing up as an indian kid is hard. Im sure all you Indian kids out there will agree.

Indian parents are hard on thier kids n im sure most of yall will agree. We all complain that our parents dont let us do stuff that we really want to.

Thers a thin line which is almost impossible to reach. 
I guess we must realise that our parents are probably the only ones who care about us dearly. They're the only ones whom we can really turn to when weve screwd up and they're probably the only ones who are gonna forgive us for being stupid.
We complain about them not givin us money to spend but we don realise that all the good stuff we have is from thier hard earned money.
We complain when we're not allowed to go out with our friends on every holiday we get but we also dont realise that on every holiday they get they look forward to spending time with us and we want to go out with friends and eventually they give in.

But thers another side of the coin.
Most Indian parents dont realise that thers a huge generation gap between them and us. 
They dont realise that whatever was taboo then is ok today and they are very finiky about it.
And most of them expect us to follow what they've been practising without allowing us to exercise our opinion about it.

But at the end of the day the onus falls on us to find the small space of understanding what they want and understanding what we want.

I love my parents and im tryin to find that thin line. 

Its hard but i guess ill get to it someday

Will post soon
Till then
Happy Lohri

Gunners or Whiners???

English football is brilliant. The pace,  tempo, atmosphere and passion in it makes it what it is. Its a game played hard and players put everything into each and every pass tackle or shot they make.

A north london club called Arsenal is one of the major clubs in England. Gunners they are called for thier history or some shit.

But in actuality they're just whiners. Ok they can pass the ball around and play flowery football but you've got to be tough enough to take tackles on.

Wind the clock all the way back to 2001, the FA cup final. Arsenal had battered Liverpool for 83 mins and were leading 1-0. Last 7 minutes Liverpool played some tough football, got some tackles in and Michael Owen scored a brace  and won the cup for pool. 

End of the game Arsene Wenger comes out n says"Liverpool did not play well enough to win. The cup is rightfully ours".

2003 season Arsenal played Man Utd at Highbury. They battered united again for most of the game. Ruud Van Nistelrooy won a penatly in the dying seconds. What happened later is irrelevant but again the in post match interview Martin Keown comes out saying "The difference in quality of football between us and them is appalling. The only chance in the game they had was the penalty". 

Come to the present season :Arsenal played Stoke City at the Brittania stadium. Stoke are a physical side and present very little space for the opposition to play. Of course Mr Wenger again expects his opposition to not touch his delicate darlings and sit and watch havin a cuppa tea while his "kids" pass the ball around. Stoke went on to beat Arsenal and guess wat Wenger said "Stoke were not intrested in playing football. They deliberately tried to injure our players. We were stopped from playing true football"

Not gonna happen. Arsenal can go to division one although i doubt they're gonna have much success there.

The english game is all about being physical. If u get tackled or crunched u get up and move on with it not sit and whine like Arsenal do. Well if you do you'll probably end up losing 4th place to Aston Villa
