Slumdog Millionaire ... what should movies be like
Posted by ana Jan 27, 2009 01:54 pm
tahmed saab: hamid's lows are masadi's highs and vice-versa

*sigh* I have no maternal instincts. I think certain urges here vis-a-vis Masadi are misplaced.

let us agree to disagree here.

tahmed saab: in that case my money is more on the persevering masadi than on the miscreant hamid. At some point, masadi was to learn something. hamid never learned not to talk in class. :)

in your illustration, I personally relate more to masadi!

hamidm:

[masadi is like that odd looking kid on the playground that everyone picks on ........ the odd looking kid usually grows up to be a serial killer, a homosexual, a pedophile or a sociologist]

and let me guess, you were the bully who was so full of himself, right?!

Has anyone seen Danny Boyle's "Trainspotting" -- I haven't seen it but he's got a toilet scene in there too. I suppose one way of looking at it is if you're a Hitchcock fan, how Hitch inserts himself in every movie. A running joke if you will.

Kulharee:

Congratulations on your candidate winning the election (as you can tell, he wasn't mine). Time will tell how well he does wrt foreign paalicy as well as domestic. If I was happy about Obama winning, it was for those friends of mine who have struggled and waited many years for this day to come. I hope he doesn't disappoint them.

And next election, both of your sons will be able to vote!!! How exciting!

P.S. I would be more than happy to proof your articles before you hit the send button. :P

tahmed sahib: with all due respect I would not want to know the whereabouts of the Generalissimo but I suspect woh itna aish kar raha hoga jitna the previous exiles before him. Of course if he is responsible for the current crisis in Pakistan then I hope he's found, but will finding him solve the economic crisis? If so, then you should not be wasting precious time asking a poor expatriate like me.

hamidm can't sink to any more depths because he's already sunk deep enough in his own concoction. :))

I honestly do not know whether to laugh or cry at the thought of Obama being the next Messiah.

I think I will laugh. And wait.

I happen to think that this world is still fun even with the Masadis in the world. I don't think that masadi being a professor is that funny, or fodder for ridicule, no matter how much he annoys, angers and just plain irritates people.

Masadi, arre, if you know what Freud's theories are (for whatever they are worth anymore) than why do you give a rat's ass what anyone thinks haiN? You've got your degree, you are a professor in the social sciences. Let her dabble with her creativity, and let whatever interpretation you have of it, be that if you don't agree with her. Like I said to Fatima, there can only be so many rounds in a boxing match. :)

Now I must go eat some dinner. Khush raho!

Fatima:

BuzurgoN ke saath adab se baat karna naik kaam hai. :) There are a few exceptions which you will figure out for yourself. And yes, you've proven you know how to respond to the Masadi.

We buzurgs don't mind watching the fight. We just think there should be a limit to how many rounds there are. Like Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier could not have gone on forever. But boogie on reggae woman. . .you've got it going on!

MeiraJ,

a few words of advice. It is best not to engage masadi in longish arguments. Have you not heard that saying "never argue with an idiot, people watching may not be able to tell the difference."

I forget that every once in a while with more than a few Chowkies. :)

peace!

oh, greetings masadi. . baal bacha theek?!
