Something to think about...


People are not dumb. They are smart. The irony is...

Okay, what am I talking about ? 

Let's go out for a walk in the market. 

What do you see ? 

You see girls. 

Now look at all those stalls selling street food. Quite busy stalls. 

Can you see the Pizza Hut ? 

Let's get a little closer, we have to see something.

Do you see the fat guy holding a gym bag ? 

He probably just came after a gym session. Look what he is ordering. 

A pizza. 

Not JUST a pizza. 

A pizza with added cheese & coca cola.

Now see what he will do after getting the pizza box.

He is reading the ingredients & calory content in the box. I told you, people aren't dumb.

Do you see what he found ? 

Ofcourse you don't. You are with me & you are watching him from a distance.

No worry. We can google it. 

Searched "total calories in a medium sized cheese pizza"

Result "Nearly 2000 calories"

So the guy perhaps lost 400/500 calories in gym & now he is reading that the pizza has 2000 calories.

Now, listen what his friend is telling him while he is reading the box.

"This is the 3rd time in this week you are eating pizza" said his friend.

"This is the last time. It won't happen again" the guy stressed each word he said. 

However, if you can read his friend's face you will know that he already knows what will happen in few days.

But he has to go with a promise. A promise, only few days away from being shattered again. 

Finally, the (fat) guy has earned the license to enjoy a 2000 calory pizza. I told you, he is smart. He is good with words. He can persuade himself to do anything he wants (ofcourse, if that is pleasing)

Back to pizza.

Watch what happens next. 

I am assuming he knows that he needs to lose more calories for losing weight. 

Look what he is doing. 

He just dumped it inside his mouth with a face full of satisfaction. 

Like I said, people are not dumb. They are smart. The irony is, they just ACT dumb.

Who the hell is this guy posting random stuff ?

A Self-Introduction to Me : Some of you know me (through Facebook), most of you don't. Ofcourse because I am an introvert who likes to shut himself in a room than going out to meet people in real. So today, although it's been late, I will introduce myself (just in case, you are wondering where am I coming from).. My name is Jyoti-blah-blah-blah. I am an alumni of CET from the branch of Electrical Engineering. At my home, in Dhenkanal, my friends call me Chintu while my friends at CET call me RANGA BHAI (out of affection) & nobody calls me Jyotiranjan.  I got into this writing-thing in 2015 while using Facebook. The more I wrote the more I found things to write about & eventually enjoyed it more than engineering (yes, I must admit). Since then I have written on Facebook for 8 years till 2023 & still continuing this blog. I was born in the same year Titanic released in USA & Dil Toh Pagal Hai released in India. 1997. I hope you understand what I am trying to say ...

Sukua : The Boy behind an Innocent Scandal

He was like an animal from a different planet. Very fondly his parents named him "Sukua". He was 15 & was working as a helper at SAHU'S KITCHEN, a 3 star hotel. But you don't know him if you don't know about his beloved. Nothing makes him happier than the smell of his beloved, rum.   Every night, after work, he would keep pushing Sahu Mausa, the hotel owner, for a 100ml bottle of rum & as usual, mausa would come up with his regular response "Shut up ". But what bothers him most is when he catches Sahu Mausa passing a bottle to Bisu (his senior co-worker), every single night. But oneday, he got an idea.  After his job, he reached the hotel bunker & broke the news : " Fire. Fire. Hotel on fire ". Every other staff rushed outside only to discover that it was a prank pulled by Sukua. They returned to the bunker to make it even with Sukua, but he was sitting like a stone. Not a single word. Just a weird look on his face & eyes toward...

The one where tradition takes front seat

On a Sunday morning, as I was sharing the dining table with my father, I noticed him coughing & sneezing.  Me : Mommy, arrange some Tulsi leaves before it's evening. (As per Odia tradition, we are not supposed to pluck leaves past evening) Mommy : But we just had our  breakfast Me : So ?  You can pick leaves only in morning on an empty stomach. Is that rule-2 in your dictionary of tradition ? (I was slightly irritated, because last time I asked her for my cold, she told me about evening, rule-1) Oh, how fool of you that you don't know this. No no, saying one can't pluck leaves after having non-veg would have made sense (considering odia culture), but the thing about empty stomach makes no sense.  You think you know everything, but you don't. No mom, I know that I don't know many things. But sometimes you say things that's just plain stupidity.  You REALLY think one can pluck leaves after having meal ? ( This time she was angry)  No, one can't (I said wh...
