The funniest site ever.
This makes me think about the idiosyncrasies of somebody I know. I could dedicate an entire blog to this. But for now, I’ll stick to these many.
• Phone calls are meant to be brief and concise for heaven’s sake. ‘I never talk on the phone beyond two minutes’ you’re told. But, when you want to hang up the phone (it’s already been an expensive STD call from a mobile to a land phone) you’re supposed to talk for another hour. ‘You can’t hang up now!’
• Every time you grumble about how you hate cooking, you’re told that the next visit you will be treated to a meal which will be cooked by him. And when the time comes, you slog over a hot stove for two hours while the person in concern lounges comfortably reading a comic!
• He will refuse to help while you cook. But, he’ll stand next to you as you sweat in a hot kitchen telling you what to and what not to do. How we hate back-seat driving!!
• Communication is all important you’re told and that the distance will not make a difference. And then there is absolutely no contact for three whole days.
• The person will spend three hours explaining to you why your fears about a certain thing are completely baseless. “What’s the worse that can happen?” you’ll be told. And just when you are almost convinced, will say that he’s inflicted with exactly the same fear.
• You’re in a bad mood and you fight and don’t give him a chance to say anything. Then later you say you are sorry. And he insists it was his fault. No it was my fault you say. But he insists some more. And you get a sinking feeling that he is actually enjoying apologising and probably doesn’t even mean it.
• Has absolutely no idea about time. (He refuses to wear a wrist-watch). When you are busy with work and say you’ll be back in an hour and you message back in less than an hour (your meeting got over fast) and you’re told ‘Why were you gone so long?’ (Duh!) And when he’s busy and says he’ll be back in 15 minutes, he always (without fail) means two hours!
