Best things have an easy access!

All the while I think of posting something important, rather I feel so, something that makes a strong point about something.
This post is just a small observation of me and others.
The best in food like salads, fresh vegetables we get them anywhere and everywhere and I didn't see any crowd at those places. I didn't observe the craving for those things. Since we have an easy access to those we don't like them. But look at the crowding at any wine shop. People tend to care a lot for that, anxiously waiting for their turn of the order. Yelling at the staff for attention. 


I have the remote in my hand and I can see Discovery, NatGeo etc., that explains our habitat and things around us so wonderfully but I still wait for long hours in queue to watch a Telugu movie(horrible no!!!)


Similar is the case with every other thing. Its in us strongly embedded feeling to crave for something that is not in our easy reach. We can't get out of it nor close to it too..

Venkata Narayana

This guy has tortured me in my B.tech. till i left the college. I would like him to read this particular post and comment too... That sounds real cool to me. 

One of the finest and classic ACEHOLE (I coin this term for the best of a**holes). I would give a brief description of this guy.

Name: P Venkata Narayana.
Age: ICEAGE.
Appearance: Changes. The only standard feature of this specimen is a nice n shiny bald head. Sports different styles of moustache.
Profession: Asst. Professor in EEE Dept. Designation doesn't match deeds.
Description: One post not enough honestly speaking. Thing is, I don't wanna waste much time thinking about him. He generally thinks of himself as a monk of the The Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa order. A smile that has loads of sheepishness. Speaks about meditation sometimes, takes extra hours for this nonsense. The whole point in his lecture is that he wanna establish himself as a holy man, full of ideals and ideologies, incarnation of Sarvepalli RadhaKrishna, loads of knowledge in technical subjects. 


The feeling of proud about self is indeed needed to achieve something coz that instills some confidence. But for doing nothing it is not necessary though. All the while during his lectures we were forced to know how he missed the bus to United States, how he ended up here instead of a chance to be a software engineer, how he cooks sambar at home, how to pronounce his name (veynkata). Never ever i learned one technical thing from him. He used to teach occasionally but that was like a concert in which he reads of the contents of the textbook. Every now and then he gives a pause to crack a joke(he's the only one laughing at them and few others fearing him or just to encourage the poor sucker).


This Ace has a supporting staff too. Things about them are much more interesting/annoying/funny.
Makes me laugh like anything when i wish him good morning and he throws back a gesture of puking out.
Everyone has their own set of experiences with him. 


In one incident I was to give my practical exam in Microprocessors. Luckily I got a simple one: Hexadecimal addition on 8051. I did it and called him to check. He took a paper and wrote down the numbers i gave as inputs and did some math and declared that my program is wrong. I saw uttermost joy in his eye when he declared so. Coz the previous night i was caught smoking in my room ( in university hostel, he was deputy warden that time). I saw that math and told he did decimal addition instead of hexa. He don't wanna check again. So i did the math and showed him hexa addition. His face became red. His ego was hurt. For a while there was frustration in his look, appearance and everything. Blurted out something " You might be a good programmer but I'm not that a**hole". It feels good when others realize some facts about them even if we don't mention that. 
From the next day onwards he was after me pointing something wrong out of whatever I did, whatever I wore.... 


Awarded pass marks to me. Hey Veynkata Narayana I can never ever excuse you for that, for I deserve much more. Hey god gimme a chance to be an Asst professor in my next life where this specimen will remain my student , forever..

Almost forgot to tell ya, he fondly calls me Subbuu betaa...

Try these.!!!!!

Try observing these things in TV or in movies...

-- Mute the audio for any telugu movie song and start saying 1,2: 1,2,3,4: 1,2: 1,2,3,4.. ( you wil come in sync with the background score)


-- In any telugu faction movie, you can see the villain gang chasing hero or anyone in a lorry and they will be swinging their swords all through the chase.. My(along with my batch) question  every time is.. how long will they go on swinging them like that(practically hey)..


-- Whatever be the theme of the movie, the movie poster will show the lead character facing the navel of the heroine(doing something)..


-- The cast and crew of any movie celebrating a film's utter failure.. And still wishing the film a grand success(even though released and declared a failure)..


--
--
-- still more to come..

Hey tollywood.. Fuck you!!

Why you care so much about other's OPINION!!!

Ystd RGV released his autobiography(can call it so, though i'm sure it won't be in a conventional format).
There was an interview in Ntv after that. It was the same situation over and over again. Varma making fools of the interviewers with his fundamentalism. The interviewers repeatedly trying to humiliate, looking for every possible opportunity to irritate or win over Varma's opinion on some issue.

I observed that this is everywhere. A person trying to decide or bias other's opinion. In the fundamental vantage point, according to a person/constituition, an individual has right to express his opinion. Varma is availing and enjoying the same. When Varma said he loves to see a woman as a sex symbol, the interviewer(say XX, frm now on) was agitated to peak most levels. Stating that this opinion of a celebrity like Varma will have a negative effect on youth. While Varma opining that youth are more matured than himself and XX to be effected by their words. That indeed is 100 p.c. true.

If youth are that vulnerable to what a celebrity talks or opines, then our country must have been a powerful one in all aspects in view of the speeches/books or otherwise delivered by Abdul kalam/Gandhi/Tata/Mother Theresa/Chiranjeevi(last one sounds funny eh!!). Or our nation might have gone to dogs with the influence of baddies(still dunno what is meant by goodie and a baddie).

Here, XX or , for that matter, anyone should fundamentally accept others opinion. Opinion in itself is something related to self. What is there for an opinion to be in terms with others opinion. An opinion is something that has formed to a person on another based on his knowledge about the other. His knowledge is limited by his experience or observation of the other.

Such a situation happened to me at my work place.
Our team happened to attend one training program. At the last there was a feedback session. The question asked was "Who is satisfied with this program?"
I chose the answer No.!!! The trainer (colleague only, senior to me) asked me to come to him and was bullshitting. "What is not there in the program that you are not satisfied? Shall I complain regarding you to the higher authorities? Now, after this , will you complain about me to the Head?" I was looking at him out of shock, anger, disgust and ofcourse he seemed silly to me. He asked me an opinion, I expressed mine. Thats all , thats the end of it. What is the dying need that everyone's opinion should accord with his?

This is the case with everyone who had spent time with such people around for a good deal of time. Varma's opinion about his opinion is the same. "I'm expressing my opinion, I can enjoy that within the limits of the constitution. Whether you are influenced by it or not is entirely your concern".Still many XXs ask the same question time and again to just prove forever that they are never influenced(or perhaps listened to) by what Varma or anyone has repeatedly expressed their opinion about the same thing!!!
