Sir, tusi toh Genius ho…


Imported Crackery

I pass this shop every day on my way home from work and for some reason it catches my eye every time. The reason of course is the fact that I live next to the world's best known traffic jam...in fact it even has a bridge named after it…Marathahalli bridge.

I must tell you about this 'Imported Crackery' shop. Unlike other people who DO NOT CHECK their SPELLINGS BEFORE they paint or print a sign board...I think this shop owner is a genius. Let me explain why...

Every Diwali this shop gets rid of all the cheap ‘Made in China Crap’ that it stocks and sells Crackers(That’s what we call Fireworks in the tropics). Then…when the josh of Diwali is out, "Mr. I don't need Concrete Walls" sells ‘Made in China Crap’ once again at prices so low that you don't care if your tea cup is leaking or your bed sheet was used to put out forest fires.

So...now...lets learn from "Mr. I'm to cheap to install a Door" that two different business ideas can come under ONE Sign Board...and Ladies and Gentlemen that is how we come up with the title, "Imported Crackery".

I rest my case. Sir, tusi toh Genius ho…

So...HOW DOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN???

There should be a law...a law that says, "Thou shall try thy best not to paint sign boards using phonetic spellings. When in doubt, thou shall ASK!!! When thou ASKS someone, thou shall make sure he is not an absolute MORON"

I would love to say a lot more...but I'm afraid, I just cannot find the motivation since I think this MORONIC SIGN BOARD says a lot more than I ever could. Congratulations sir, you have just invented "The Best way to start a conversation in a Bangalore Traffic Jam."

You should get a Nobal Prise or an Askar award or even a Pullitsar Prige.

I am sure you have met people in the course of your life who act like they don't understand cricket. They are usually from the Planet Zork, which is on the far side of the Galaxy, where Hockey and Kabbadi rule supreme. Anyways, I was at the ATM the other day, trying to do what most people do there...LOOK OVER THE OTHER PERSONS SHOULDER to see how much money they have in their bank account...(I had more)...but when the dude looked back, I had to act like I was doing something else and my eyes fell on a promotional item that my bank had placed at the ATM center just incase someone caught you spying...Phew!!! Thank God!!!

Anyways, in the photo you will see an advertisement for an "On the Spot Personal Loan." Lovely...excellent...so...now…you go to the bank...and they look at your credit history and ON THE SPOT they say, "GET OUT!!!"

Morons, do you know NOTHING about cricket... “You my kind Sir are from Planet Zork…”
