Pheelings Of Philosophers

What do you get when you combine bored souls searching-for-the-meaning-of-life-while-reading-dilbert-comics are out together in a 24x7 group chat?

Lpakki says: the wrld
Lpakki says: is crappy
Naatama says: y isnt it round :P

Little interruption here:
Our wise LPakki is the formulator of many theories...the most famous one being 'Life is round'..tho we did find later she'd ripped it off from Dr.(Ahem)Vijay's Vaazhkai oru Vattam...she being his number 1 fan n all (yes yes...i can understand ur horror :P)
You now go go back to reading our regularly scheduled programme...

Lpakki says: itss round and crappy
Naatama says: :D
Lpakki says: may be itss crappy bcoz its rnd
Lpakki says: if it had been a square it wud hav been neat...may be
Lpakki says: (think)

Me says: no
Me says: then u'd hafta cross the corners...nw its smooth :P
Me says: tat may explain the boredom tho

Lpakki says: yeahh
Lpakki says: itss the same everytime...so boringg

Me says: then its ur duty
Lpakki says: ?
Me says: to ride out on a tangent

Lpakki says: watss tat tangent
Lpakki says: sliding way to heaven r hell kya

Me says: a tangent is not out the circle......
Me says: heaven or hell r concentric circle to life.... ie below or abv
Me says: a tangent is jus ricocheting off ur prescribed circle (assuming each person is prescribed a circle by God)
Me says: u can always get bak to the circle coz its connectd to the circle by a point....catch my point?

Lpakki says: (yes)

I.C.TV

Not so long ago, my family on a falling sick spree. Not just catch a cold, sniff with fever sick...rush to ER, get admitted in the ICU sick.The real works.
While that sounds morose, and did feel so at that point of time, I actually did find some parts of it quite funny. How?
Setting: Night 11pm, one exhausted me has been asked to make myself comfortable in the waiting room upstairs...the 'waiting room' is a bunch of chairs with towels on them..apparently 'reservation' by people who wanted to have decent sleep.
Characters: One TV(the main character of this wonderful tale), and the hugeee(i mean in number too :P) family, the female clan of which was led by The Sornaka..the men folk led by our own chennai version of lungi clad Jake Sully
Now when this intriguing story starts, and I walk into the waiting room, there are like random 4-5 people sitting and staring at our hero, the Television while guarding their..umm..towels. And what do you think is running on TV? A Captain movie..where our dear captain is crying for his about-to-demise mother. Thats when the pissed off, tired, new-to-the-rules-of-the-room me walked upto the TV and switched it off, amidst mild murmuring. Few minutes later, something resembling a marriage party arrives...our Jake Sully among shouting
'Innnnaaaaa....adhukula off pantaaaa' at the sornaka (yess yesss....thats when i learnt the dynamics of the clan...observant aint it? :P)
To which, our sornaka replies 'Andha papa dhan off pannichu....' n points to...lo n behold...me!(ya....she called me a papa...hilarious....now move on!)
After which, some 15 odd people turn and stare at me.....thats when the raw boldness of what I had done struck me...so I did what any courageous heroine would do...turned and stared pointedly at the girl beside me while everybody stared at me :D
Well that was our intro scene...and thanks to them, my 2 day stay in the hospital was a hoot.
Their day starts with half the women folk going home to clean up the kids and stock up on large andas of biryani and flasks of kaapi n tea...while the men folk go around grunting and snorting at being woken up early by the hospital cleaning staff. The elected women folk who do stay behind start with 'Vanakam Chennai'....and move on to any random movie playing in any random channel...and how lucky I was! My cheerful mornin started off with Sharath Kumar crying for some about-to-demise family! Awesome right?
Then the women folk come and declare mealtime..and all of them would eat and makes joke about each other and beat each other up...some touching family moments! Awwwwww Yaavarum Nallam moments!
Then the Sully gang go down for their dum session..while sornaka declares 'Eiii...andha serial la andha amma ku inaachunu thenjudhaaa?' and her daughter in laws scramble to turn the channel on.
Then one of the macho men comes up and says 'Our ailing member in the ICU(!) is missing..I think they've taken him for some tests' or something of that sorts and everybody goes ooohhh and gets back to the television
Needless to say, this cycle continued...the whole fantabulous day...right till deviyani walked out of her house with ominous music in the background..and even after that, till Ramya Krishna walked out of her house wit ominous music in the background.
Oh ya..and this would be broken by occasional 'Nee yaen ma inga keera?' from the sympathetic female clan while the male clan curiously looks on.
And after being asked that question countless times, it suddenly hit me...I knew why they were there....the cable connection in their home was screwed up!
