Randomness again

Hello there.

Ah, this is the first time I blog when I'm drunk.

Hello out there. Its pretty good, you know, old monk and water. Ok, admitted, I was a bit lazy going out and buying myself a coke - but its good!

Now what is it I want to talk about. Its been a while, I know, since I posted my last. Things have changed, since the last time I even visited blogger. I'm Mumbai, erstwhile Bombay. I agree with Russell Peters - if the 'authorities' wanted to change the name, they should've changed it the moment they left the country in 1947. And the worst of them all is my home town Bangalore. It did not just take them 51 years, it also took them uncreative political reasoning to change it from Bangalore to Bengaluru. The new name, albeit its the way its pronounced in Kannada, sucks. Nobody calls it that. Bangalore was Bangalore because it was 'cool', the name being a part of the 'coolness'. You know, the fucking politicians are the worst of the lot - I'm not complaining about them because they are corrupt or whatever - but I complain because their identity depends completely on what the public wants. They are so ready to change what they are to rein in the votes, that they can go all the way to claim they 'love' Kannada, or that they

want to address' concerns of the people.

Politicians are the WORST lot of corrupt humans of them all. Corrupt humans here refers to the them who are ready to change their outward personalities in accordance to the greater opinion, the people. BJP, for example, assumed, the higher percentage of the population being Hindu, would love having a Hindu-agenda-addressing party to rule them, like the repeat of Gujarat. The moment they lost the assembly election - the party manifesto changed faster than lightning struck the ground. Admitted, though I prefer them, the other major party - INC - wasn't any better, but the INC has quite an intelligent lot, or an intelligent leader, on their side.

But then again, politicians aren't the ONLY ones. The ones around you are exactly like them, after all, politicians and the 'democratic' government are only a reflection of what the people who elected them are actually like. More likely than not, a person is going to have more friends who are their friends for reasons that are more of self-interest than not. It is the 'emotion' that excuses this self interest - but then again that is what is the basis of 'society'

I think I must avoid blogging knowing the fact that Old Monk is AMAZING! :) Until next time, bye bye...
