Chowk is 9 Today

#144 by zeemax on August 15, 2006 11:11am PT

the only reason i won`t pay is I don`t want chowk to get my credit card data. If they set up a third party payment, I would pay...

would the cab drivers here be able to pay that kind of money...100$ is a couple of cab fares at least...

Happy Birthday indeed!

Umair Khan, Farzana and rest of the team have lived up to their promise of ``unflinching idealism``. The best thing about chowk is that it taps into the ideals of its interactors, instead of pushing its own ideals down their throats.

It`s especially been a pleasure to read articles written by Godot, Mantolives, Dost-Mittar and Farzana. Chowk`s birthday is special for another reason too. It coincides with the inaugration date of a small BPO business that I launched with friends 3 years ago.

You know, a hundred dollars is going too far. These people won`t even pay twenty dollars.

They would rather hack it.

That`s the reality of arjuns and mohars and krishnas and the rest ....

#141 abe zee, is this a mujra or something that only paying uncles are welcome ;-)

krishna (happy birthday)..i mean socio-economic class, not necessarily caste. for example a person who can get into islamabad club is a high socio-economic class and one who parties on old-monk with thums-up (and a twist of neembu for high-shytle) with other code-coolies is low class.

tahmed, you are the most experience in assigning morality certificates..how is your favorite behramji these days? he seems to have lost his edge these day..can you say more mashallahs to him?

In fact if chowk-staff wants to check my commitment, they can post a link where I can pay that $100 right now.

Right. You would probably find a way around it, but you will not pay $100.

As for the next question, yes I would pay $100 quite willingly, for whatever I have to say.

Thanks.

Every khasi would be using the same subscription....

That may be correct. But Mr. Arjun_M, would you really be willing to pay $100 for the privilege of cutting/pasting and to abuse?

would YOU be willing to pay 100$/yr to tell us about your imaginary life in which you`ve killed people and slept with a lot of women....

Yes HP, they derail every attempt at meaningful dialogue.

Same story ....

You see what we are back too.

If a site cannot decide in 9 years what is abuse and what is koshar, then that Site has to be indian owned...

Now that khasis have taken over this thread, we know where this thread is headed....

Re: # 136

The following is a bit too flattering:

``If a site cannot decide in 9 years what is abuse and what is koshar, then that Site has to be indian owned... ``

Indians have `decided` on Rushdie`s book, Mira nayyar`s `water` or `fire` -what have you, Hollywood`s whatever - the one which says that Jesus was not gay but Da Vinchi was, SIMI etc. etc.

Heck, FV `decided` on quite a few things here :-)

Godot, I read that fantastic translation you did of Ismat Chughtai`s ``Lihaf`` a long time ago. What happened to you?

I don`t expect a reply. I guess Chowk did that to you too.

It has become a poisonous forum. Better shut down.

You should be!!! Once I`m done with you, your boss Mr. Tunku V. will be begging for mercy for you!


Impotent paki making impotent threats on the internet...how novel..

next we`ll have another paki telling us how godot was the prophet of peace and only became a raving mad dog threatening to kill people because of posts by Indians..posts which only contain ``cut-and-pastes`` of articles from the western/paki press...

I read chowk regularly. I sure wish you edits well, your job involves so much time and effort. Congrats and keep it going.
