Thoughts

I don’t want to speak to even customer care now. If there’s an option for chat, I will always prefer that than get on an phone call and stay waiting. A waste of time and resources. Happy that more and more service providers keep chat as an option. Phone call is a last resort.

Don’t ever try to retell famous comedians’ jokes. They have a whole process, a build-up before they hit their audience with the joke. You can’t do it all in the 2 minutes you borrow from someone. And they have the skill you don’t, hence famous. Duh!

“What’s the ONE thing I can do / such that by doing it / everything else will be easier or unnecessary?”

Hmmm. Profound. Makes me think.

I know that these are three related terms with their own individual meanings, but I need a reminder occasionally. Meteoroids, Meteor and Meteorites.

Every now and then, there’s an XKCD comic which I can make no sense of. Today’s (or XKCD 2626) was such. I am not that smart you see ๐Ÿ˜„

Every time I listen to the song Daryaa from Manmarziyaan, I am reminded of the genius of Amit Trivedi. It’s such an intricate, yet equally simple song. The whole album is a masterclass. Also Lootera, Bombay Velvet, Andhadhun – man, I am a big fan of this guy!

Sigh, my daughter has got to know of K-pop music, especially BTS and Blackpink. She never listened to them at home earlier. She isn’t always listening to the songs, but her friends do. So she, kind of, feels she needs to keep up. Is it bad that she feels pressured? Should I help?

Over the years, I have had many wrong perceptions and I have realised that the assumption that how I experience something is precisely how everyone all over the world experiences it is the root for many. Now I pause, think, and only then make up my mind.
