miss pronoun C A shuns

Have you ever found yourself engrossed in communication so intensely that often your words get mixed up .. no I'm not talking about how the accent that I think I might not have becomes suddenly apparent in a conversation....
I am talking about the time when the accent you can't possibly have becomes apparent in a conversation... how can this be.. here's an example of what happened at lunch today:

Note: S and D are indian.. which is different very different from Japanese.. they cannot possibly have a japanese accent.. but looks like D can...

(in the middle of a political conversation..)

S: Yea I wonder what these new presidential candidates have to propose about all these issues.
D: I dont' know dude.. I guess we won't know until next years erection.
S: The what?
D: I meant election !!! election !!!
S: Wow...you just sounded like you had a japanese accent... next presidentiar erection..
D: lolz
S: something is wrong with that sentence, reminds me of monica lewinsky, afterall, she is responsible for one of those.. you know presidentiar erections.
D: Gives a whole new meaning to those phrases commonly used during erections.. "Bush is only a few votes behind in Iowa and inches away from winning the erection"
S: Yea.. we should stop.

Booing Miss USA was justified

Miss Universe wheeeeeeeeeeeee

So Miss Universe was on last night. Did you watch? Did you? Did you? No???? Why? Cause you think it’s lame and derogatory to women? Or because its against your culture? You’re freakin insane! It is one of THE most entertaining shows ever!!!

I thrive on the clichéd speeches and the fake heart holding and the pretend confusion [read - stalling for time] while the translator is translating. I’ve watched these pageants since I was a kid; even before Rai and Sen won. It's also a fabulous way to discover new countries you never knew existed. Turks & Caicos – Really?

Also if you're lucky you might get to see someone trip. You wait with baited breath. It’s impossible you think, for all the 77 of them to make it across that super shiny floor in those high high heels and humongous dresses. Last night however was like winning the lottery. Miss USA didn’t just trip, she landed on her ass. It was the most hilarious thing I’ve ever seen. The crowd laughed and then booed when she was put through to the next round [sympathy vote? or maybe it was because every effing judge was an actor from some American TV show].

In the end Japan won the crown and i thought she completely deserved to win mostly becauase of her amazing ability to walk the way she did [Also because she was completely nuts.. but in a good way. She giggled and made strange faces but not like in a fake pageanty way] She did this amazing dance/walk thing during the swimsuit round while everyone else including Miss India walked like Zombies. [Seriously Pooja Gupta moved like a Zombie the whole time and then she suddenly turned around with this seductive look. It was absoulutely hilarious. It reminded me of the Zoolander look.] I’ll forgive her though since she was so pretty. And pretty people deserve another chance…you know like Paris Hilton. Free Paris Hilton! Free Paris Hilton!

Ooh also this year the National Costume round was wayyyyyyyyy more over the top than it normally is. It was like a Drag Show with wings and flowers and trees and rainbows. Remember this guy from America’s Got Talent? I swear I spotted him in the middle. And then again at the end.

Miss India unfortunately didn’t make it to the final 5 and we very sadly missed out on her public speaking skills. No, not because she speaks wonderfully and would have taken the crown but because she talks like a 12 year old. The final 5 didn’t disappoint though inspite of the fact that no one mentioned Princess Diana or Mother Theresa. Also what was with the Donald Trump booing? Not that I minded or anything but he owns the bloody thing!

Halo 3 Madness

So like everyday, I got to work at 11 AM (yeah pretty late for coming to work but oh well) and my first hour, hour and a half is dedicated for reading the news from my "Personalized Google" homepage. The blogs include /. (nerdy way to say slashdot), 360 Fanboy, Engadget and betanews.com. Moving forward. The first blog title I notice on my homepage "Halo 3 pre-orders top 4 million?" and I was like "whoa! already?". The game comes out in November and I have been waiting for it since November 2004 (the moment I finished Halo 2). The numbers are ridiculously crazy but I have little room to doubt it, since the hype about Halo 3 is just enormously crazy. In December last year Bungie, (creators of Halo), aired a 60 second commercial for Halo 3, during Monday night footbal. Not surprisingly, I left work early that day (at 5.30) just so I could watch the commercial in all its HD glory (I wasn't the only one so crazy about it). It was just one time commerical that will never be aired on national tv ever again. And just after the commercial was aired, my first reaction was "That's it?" and then I went online and swarmed by IMs people bitching about how short the commercial was, which is pretty ironic considering Bungie probably paid like a few million dollars to air that commercial. But the point is that almost everyone I know, who owns a Xbox, has been waiting for this game to come out for ages. The day after the commercial was aired, Joystiq, another popular blog, had a video breakdown/analysis of that 1 minute commercial that ran for SEVENTEEN minutes. Yes, a frame-by-frame breakdown. Every single detail, from a comet to the bubble shield to the master Brute was ripped apart and analyzed and assumptions were made on what the story would be like. Seeing that kind of craze about a game is just incredible. If the numbers are real, then we are talking about almost about 300 million dollar sale on the first day the game comes out, beating even the best of the best Hollywood movie. But then you can find a party pooper in every good thing and in the above mentioned post, the party pooper is Kiggle. Read the post and read the comment number 13. And also read the reaction to his comment. The reaction is even more funny (just shows how loyal people are towards the Halo franchise, that they don't want to listen to anyone bitch about this game). Even though his speculations sound reasonable, I have my own reasons, mainly the hype I just talked about, to believe that the numbers are most likely real. And last but not the least, I didn't want to be left behind from this party so I pre-ordered my collector's edition from costco.com after lunch.

If any of you reading the blog wants to join the Halo 3 party when it comes out or want to be part of the Halo 3 beta, let me know. You can join the beta party starting May 16th for three weeks. And if anyone owns a 360 and playing Rainbow Six: Vegas or Crackdown currently, then send me a friend invite on Xbox Live @ the gamertag "sp4rt4n029" and I'll teach ya how to kick some puny ass in those game ;)

Until my next post, take care!!

Ok... so we've been tagged by Pri, for which we feel truly honored... We really do! So here are random factos about Seepa and Dhubhra...

1. Why the names Seepa and Dhubhra you ask... Our original names are in 'fact' Deepa and Shubhra... and we just decided to switch the first letters in our names. What fun!

2. Dhubhra and I also like to combine words and we often utter malapropisms. The other day, instead of saying Downtown Mountain View, Dhubhra said "Mounttown Downtainview"... bwaahahaaahahhahaahhah! man! That always cracks me up. Examples of combining words can be (Hotmail + Yahoo = Hohoo) for instance.

3. The way Dhubhra and I met for the first time is an epic story and deserves an entire post for itself. But to shorten the version, apples (the fruit) brought us together and that sacred fruit has kept us binded as friends.

4. Dhubhra and I were roommates on campus. One random day, she wanted to start her own business. (That's great I thought. Earn money for the BOTH of us.) Then I learnt that she wanted to iron other people's clothes. What were the prices you charged Dhubhra? $1 for pants, $0.50 for shirts, and no ironing of personals. Obviously the business did not last too long since I refused to take part in it. Actually, I not only refused to take part in it, I made sure the business was not successful. (conniving laughter)

5. Dhubhra and I were classmates in high school, classmates in college, roommates in college, coworkers after college. Guess one of us always manages to 'tag' along with the other.

6. Last year, Shubhra and I fell off the sky together. Don't be alarmed. We went sky diving and it was one of the most awesomest experiences ever!

7. Shubhra and I always end up wearing the same colored clothing without any prior coordination. And I mean, we don't just match the usual colors such as Black or Grey and stuff. We wear random colors such as dark purple, sky blue and so forth.

So there you go people. Our seven random facts. We will be tagging The Brown Savage and Purple Haze now. Hey... Purple and Brown... are you two EVER going to blog again? sheez!
