Reason 1: Absolute inability to express anymore. Or, something like it! I've tried and tried some more. But there are no shapes, there are no figures and there are no fuckin expressions. Blogger's block, probably, if such a creature exists.
Reason 2: MBA. But that's no news. I have been suffering from this goddamned disease for 525 days now and I should have gotten used to it. But I haven't. Actually, things are in the worst probable shape ever. I want out and I want it now. I'm mighty pissed off with everything associated with this fuckin plague and that makes the mood ever-irritable.
Reason 3. MBA, again. I have lately been swamped with work. Lots.
Reason 4. Sticksports.com. I just want the motherfucker who coded this shit called Stick Cricket to get ants in his ass. Alternatively, the site can be brought down. When there's no work, I play the absolutely addictive flash game, like, all the time.
Not much has happened in life in this last month. Well yeah, Facebook happened. I finally took the plunge and am sorry I did so. For all I know, this new fad has turned everyone into a crybaby vying for attention through 'like's and comments. More on that later, sometime, probably, in the near future, if at all.
Well, that's all. Also, Indi-fuckin-blogger, all of a sudden, thinks that my blog stinks (the ratings have fallen from 80 to 65 during the month I was inactive).
ratings?
ReplyDeleteSince when did you crave for someone else's stamp of approval :O
Well, I joined it for other reasons. Ratings come packaged!
ReplyDeleteTch...Tch, VKG u say FB has turned everyone into a crybaby vying for attention through 'like's and comments (which i partly agree) and then u go bananas over ratings !
ReplyDeleteU ought to proof read ur writings for contradictions :P
ANd u can see how addictive flash games can be...i was the victim of flash tennis :P
ReplyDeleteThough i was an even bigger victim of Rome Total Empire (damn this empire building Strategy games!)
but it gives a kick, like DCPing in RBS i guess :P
@ Potty: I did not go 'bananas'. It was just a line. And, considering your evident lack of knowledge about Indiblogger and your general lack of IQ, I would suffice by saying that the line mocked the tall claims of Indiblogger where they also rated the blogs on content and readers' responses. I did not even touch my blog for one month and the ratings plummeted. How is it different from any other petty blogosphere then?
ReplyDeleteit hapeens...
ReplyDeleteguess blogosphere(u invented this term, ryt?!!) is just havin a hard time... u not writin is its loss after all :)...wow! I sound flatterin :P
No Divya, the word has been there on the web for ages now. And thanks for the 'flattering'. We are suckers for appreciation. (exploited by FB)! (: (:
ReplyDelete:D lol tht indiblogger thing ...this guys they pull u down real bad :P
ReplyDeleteFacebook!! Flash Games!! Its not you at all..
ReplyDeleteYou need help!! :D :D
And about ratings..mango man doesn't need ratings (:
@ vicious: Yeah. To be true, I never cared about the ratings until I reached 80 :P Now when I'm back to 65, I care no more :D
ReplyDelete@ Dipa: Yes, probably, I do need help. Badly!
ReplyDeleteThanks (:

ReplyDeleteThere.
The ego is livid, but kya karein, you're a good writer.
Hmm..feels like a standstill haan..and thats a very common problem of not getting to write anything when your mind is diverted and moreover not able to get the preoccupied things out of it which have to be done but are not done..
ReplyDeleteYou are in a continuous stage of evolution right now..and i know this shall pass..when you learn the art of compromising with some of the not so important things currently in your life..
All the best and well you took out all the frustration in calling names to whatever and whoever you felt like..hope that you felt better :P
It will pass soon :)
Take care..
My best wishes :)
Its fine to keep off n let go for a while...glad to hear that FB did happen finally!!
ReplyDeleteBlogosphere welcomes you back :)
@ Nikita: Welcome back to this place after ages! :P Thanks, in a strange way (:
ReplyDelete@ Alcina: That was reeeaally sweet and most definitely needed (: 98 days left here at hell at it shall all pass (:
ReplyDeleteThe art of compromise?
Thank you, Shruti. Guess it's fine. Even if it doesn't, I dont have a choice!
ReplyDeleteThe art of compromise to be precise..I want to say that balancing and putting up the most needed thing first then the needed thing then the need then not so important thing and so on and so forth..
ReplyDeleteBasically prioritizing with each moment that passes by us done the best in these types of haphazard and totally confusing situations :)
feeling better after all the swearing and cussing? glad to see you back and blog. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhy MBA? :P
ReplyDelete@ Alcina: I so want to prioritize. Everything seems to be set snug fit in the scheme of things but somehow everything messes up. Well, I know I wouldn't be making sense.
ReplyDelete@ Alok: Well, It's not bad, per se. But it's not for everyone. If you got your priorities straight in life, and the topmost is being someone big someday, mba welcomes you with open arms.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks buddy, for all the appreciation and the swearing! :P
@ Abhishek: Not really, dude. Just a way of life.
ReplyDelete@ Shahenshah: I can. for sure, answer "Why not MBA"! :D
ReplyDeleteYou know what, was just thinking about the way FB has gotten people to YEARN for likes n comments.....well should a creature of my age be wanting likes/comments/ or Should we be wanting more productive tingis!!!
ReplyDeleteProbably we were all a little narcissistic. FB amplified it beyond boundaries.
ReplyDeleteRank will improve as soon as u start writing again.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes. :)
Dude.. this sticksports stuff has happily made my life hell as well :) :( Such an addiction! but ya.. nothing should keep you away from writing for sure!
ReplyDelete@ Chandrika: I don't really care anymore. Now I understood that the algorithm sucks! Thanks, though (:
ReplyDelete@ Austerelyfreaky: :D Please get that site down, please!!!
ReplyDeleteSo much happening in ur "bas vai yar,chal raha he" life...! Chaliye, ab regularly likhna...
ReplyDeleteAwww... Noo.. (:
ReplyDeleteIndi blogger did that to my blog too when I was inactive.
And I hate the "Me Me Me' Syndrome in FB. Not to mention how it makes friendships so impersonal. No one needs to pick up the phone anymore. Just announce everything from marriage, to baby to homecoming in FB. Sheesh! |:
And Bloggers Block is a good excuse. But feed the blog too will ya. Don't let Indi effing blogger have the last laugh! :mj (:
So true!! More on the F Book soon on my blog! Will try to be regular-er! (:
ReplyDelete@ Akshhar: Probably!! I'll try to, pal!
ReplyDeleteThis too shall pass. Least u can do is get off fb.B-). One prob solved. Expressions! U really cant express a lotta things. But initially only ur gf complained. Now she has a companion-indiblogger.
ReplyDeleteI'm off it as far as you're concerned :|
ReplyDeleteI know I can't. Do not rub it in my face :|
:/
Chill, dude. All of this happens at some point of time or the other to everyone. Calm down and everything will pass like a breeze.
ReplyDeleteAll the best.
I think u shud stop thinking abt the indiblogger ratings and do what u feel like. Get back to blogger when u really want to write and when u really have the time.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the MBA!!
@ Sapna: Yeah, its been a bit better for the past few days (: Thanks!
ReplyDelete@ Ria: I aint really thinking about Indiblogger. I'm surprised how only the harmless little last line made so many people comment on it. It was just something I mentioned.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wishes! (:
IT is such a youthful blog...makes me aware of my age...kudos Mango man for your writing skills. My. my! I am a bit envious here....45 comments. I hardly get a dozen. How do u do it...Anyways good luck for your MBA.
ReplyDeleteWriting is and should be a cathartic experience. An outlet to vent. And silence is better than nonsensical ramblings!
ReplyDeleteAnd you joined FB...ohho!!!
Thanks, Alka. (: Age, as they say, is just a number - just like the Indiblogger ratings. Hope to keep in touch!
ReplyDelete@ Purba: ISn't that contradictory? Aren't nonsensical ramblings like these cathartic?
ReplyDeleteVKG, do not get bogged down by comments like above. Keep on scribbling nonsensical/arbit stuff. Sense is so much overrated.
ReplyDeleteThats Indi-way of telling you to wake up dude :P
ReplyDeleteWhy do you care about the ratings when you have so many readers and fans?
Cheer up! Dude and get going!!
@ DP: She probably didn't mean that. Don't worry, I don't have too much else in this world to do ;)
ReplyDelete@ Sh@s: Yeah, probably. I will, someday, probably!!
ReplyDeleteNo getting pissed off, please. Keep on writing, man. You've got a loyal base of readers you cannnot disappoint. :-)
ReplyDeleteBhad me jaye Indiblogger bhad me jaye mba. you're doing a good job with this blog buddy...
ReplyDelete@ Prajakta: I know and I'm grateful for that! (:
ReplyDelete@ SFS: Thanks bro!
ReplyDeleteWhen you feel like this, you should take it easy, step back from the world and relax. Nothing's more important than yourself.
ReplyDelete@ Shyam Sir: Yes, sir. I try to smell the flowers of the backyard of my life and they smell great. But sometimes they aren't enough. Thanks though.
