The saurabh Conundrum
Dear readers,those who know me will attest to the fact that I,Venkata Raghuram Rayapureddi , am a man of few vices and many flaws.These would include a disposition that annoying enough to drive most men over the edge, a kind of manic persistence that borders on insane ,and a generous use of gratituous profanity .These and a few more to be ironed out before I become one with the universe. I have annoyed too many a classmate(N.B its entirely unintentional,always is),pissed of a few only to follow them around apologising profusely until they give in.(Hey, its a known disorder called Human Doormat syndrome, look it up.)
I just want to be at good terms with everybody. Its a part of my grand plan for eventual world domination
(sorry ,bad one.).But the second of the afore-mentioned contingencies fail me in the case of a particular Messr.Saurabh Aggarwal. I ticked him off last sem over a prolonged period(the whole last sem) by sleeping right through every single class right next to him. Somewhere down the line ,He just snapped and blew the gasket an revoked my permission to sit beside his august self.I was all "What's up your a**??".In fact that was all I said.He went straight to Satyagraha mode (righteous rage,to the uninitiated) and never spoke to me ever again. In fact ,today ,one of the last few days of the second sem(i.e a whole six months after the aforesaid incident) ,he still acts mean when I casually asks what the CO portion is??
I mean,what what kind of an answer is "I dont know??" form a stereotypical slogger who stayed not just awake ,but fully conscious through every second of every CO class there was??
I was shocked out of my wits .I totally did NOT see that one coming .He was always kinda taciturn when I was around but I did not know it was silent rage. It totally creeeps me out that anyone could hold a grudge for this looong. God knows what he'd be like if someone reallly gets his goat. My prayers are with that poor bastard.
What really bothers me is that ,we were kinda chummy for starters ,like we'd talk about the matrix and LOTR(Saurabh always chose to ignore the existence of all other works of fiction) an Id show him my art and he'd smile or grunt(approval or dispproval respectively) and we'd talk about computer games (My lack of any knowledge in that field would infuriate him into a teaching frenzy.).I always kinda liked him for hard he was trying to be at par with everything while the rest of us were content with our defeatist rhetorics. I want all of that back.
So saurabh if you are reading this ,I am really sorry for pissing you off.I wanna be friends again .
Wow.That was heartfelt and mushy.
For the rest of you : did you know that impotency stikes one in ten men.So dont sweat it dude.Odds are, one of your buddies cany get it up either.
Ragdoll-Signing out.
