The Story of Trust

What separates us from the animal world? Google provides many answers but none satisfied me. It talked about biology and genetic difference. Even 2 human have different gene structure. Chimps and humans gene-structure differs by 1.2%. I searched for more subtle differences. Then came the language. But language seemed an effect and I thought there must be a cause behind that.

And the cause is nothing but the 'trust'. When we started trusting each other, their arose a need for communication and thus the language was born. Trust is a bio-psychological process by which we tend to believe on others for our welfare. I trust my family that they will always think good for me, and thus delaying my next exchequer(for my good :( ). I trust my friends they will curse me for the bhasad I have written :D. I trusted my professors that they would make my life more miserable in years to come(and it actually happened).

But the story of trust have taken new dimensions. We trust a piece of cotton approved by our government having words, " i promise the bearer to pay the sum of xyz rupees". We trust a magnetic tape to save our skin when we go for shopping or dining next time. We also trust that if next time we default our payment , then goons will be there on the doors. The government trusts us that what ever actions they take (any action also indicates inaction!!), we won't pay heed to anything. The politicians trust us how much they have fleeced us, we will vote them again, and giving them one more opportunity to fleece us :(.!! We trust that by using that cream we will become fairer; by that medicine we/it will become longer (you can report SPAM for this); using that shampoo, we will have hair-regrowth; by drinking that, we will become handsome.Trust have given rise to miracles!! And our trust is continuously being exploited!! Lets have a MOBILE MAXX TIMEOUT from this topic now.

all is not fair - the skin deep thinking

Why Priyanka Chopra even bothers to use Pond’s Fairness Cream after being crowned as one of the most gorgeous lady in the world? Why John Abraham the heartthrob of Indian Film Industry, also a g_y icon, chooses to advertise for Garnier Activz Men- fairness cream for men. And fishes (like SS) becomes the prey.

In reality anything less than Chanel or Chantecaille will not even make it to their Vanity Van. But it is all the money game which makes this happen. Indin fairness cream industry is pegged at 800+ crores, with our good old ‘fair and lovely’ of HUL being the market leader with 63% shares. And in this race of fairness, the Indian men are not lagging behind – men’s fairness cream contributes around 29% to the total revenue. This 29% doesn’t counts people (like SR), whose ‘fair and lovely(women version)’ is kept locked in their closet and is only used when none is around. Fairness indeed does have a cost or may be they are too shy to use in front of others. And interestingly, the first fairness cream for men, ‘fair and handsome’ advertisement brought into light the plight of men secretly using women’s fairness cream.” Mard ho ke auraton wali cream kyon?”.

India, a multicultural, multireligious, multilingual, multicaste, multiethnic, etc etc etc etc is also a multicolor country. Just as shown in fairness meter of these products, the color spectrum indices of our country ranges from very dark to very fair. The western world believes that the caste system is the only thing which rots Indian society and color racism theirs. But as usual we have proved them wrong again. Even before their dark age(was it really their dark age?? I think it was their fair age as not a black soul lived on European land), we Indians were segregating people based on colors. White signified ‘good’ and black signified ‘evil’.a dn for proof you can check ancient Ayurvedic texts, which have preparations for getting fair!!

Why are we so obsessed with white? Why photo studio gives your shot an extra white touch? Why we have racist skin songs like”gori tera gaon”, “goriyan chura na mera jiyan”, etc etc?? Why Black people are teased for their color? Why our thinking is only SKIN DEEP??

p.s.

1. even white people are teased for their color now a days. (ghor kaliyug)

2.the writer doesn’t believes and supports color racism or any form of racism.

3.SS or SR could (or couldn’t) be fictional characters.

Omegle and INDIANS

*Omegle is a service for meeting new friends. When you use Omegle, you pick another user at random and you have a one-on-one chat with each other. Chats are completely anonymous.*

Scene 1: In a site called Omegle, a guy is chatting with a girl(supposedly; it could be a male faking a girl) for last 15 minutes. The girl asks the question,” Which country?”. The boy replies,”India”. The girl quits.

Scene 2: me(not me actually but my friend SP):hi
Stranger: hiiiiiiii….
Me: gun or doll?
Stranger: doll.
Me: wow!! Me gun..
Stranger: nice meeting you.
Me: whats the time in yr clock?
Stranger: 2.00 pm (1200 GMT)
Me: let me guess yr country?
Me: germany?
Stranger: awesome…yrs?
Me: 5.30 pm
*stranger googles and finds out it is India and the connection ends*

Scene 3: me(obviously it is SP): hi..
Stranger: hiii….
Me: asl
Stranger: 18 f england
Stranger: u?
Me: 22 m india
*connection ends8

So, what is wrong with INDIANS?

Could be many reasons………
• Firstly, we are still the ’browns’. We are still the other race. As SRK told in MNIK there are 3 events in western world- BC, AD and 9/11. After 9/11, Asians are seen in western world with contempt. Indian origin people living outside for many generations are still asked about their identity in the western world.
• Secondly, the pervert nature of Indians frequenting this site. Their intentions becomes clear after chatting for sometime. I took the pain of entering the virtual world and found that other world’s women are not comfortable with asian men; but the first reason cannot be obliterated.
• Come to scene 1: a guy faking a girl’s profile is actually from India(and no wonder my friend SP was involved in such instances and he was faking a girl’s profile). And who would like to chat with a fellow Indian; that also male. This is the third reason.
• Fourthly, Indians are emotional fools(most of them). After chatting for sometime they really get involved in the relationship(friendship or other purpose I know not). They start asking for fb and gtalk ids. Dude get a life!! People are frequenting this because they want to breathe free and enjoy the privacy. KD(one of my friend) even waited for 3 hours for an omegle friend for gtalk and she never turned up. Poor KD…

There could be various other reasons which I know not. *if u have any then please post*

p.s.
• SP and KD could (or couldn’t) be fictional characters.
• People please refrain from damaging nation’s identity and learn controlling hormone levels.
