Shanti's "Dancing with dogs" carries a blogpost about, guess who? Me!
And this is what she wrote....
"I don't know if I am supposed to be flattered or completely disgusted with this little creep's obsession with me - What the heck is his problem? I am not a celebrity - I am not a paid columnist. I am just writing whatever I feel like in my own little corner and as a rule, I never stoop to attacking personally, other bloggers. This on the other hand, is getting really ridiculous and nutso. Stop the crap, Onkar and just live your own life!"
This shows three things:
1 - She visits my blog, and does not comment! So's who's the voyeuristic creep, then?
2 - She does not understand the three words, "freedom of speech" [in my own personal space too]
3 - She thinks just because she is not a celebrity or a columnist, she shouldn't have to face scrutiny in a public domain. [Yea, right!]
Words of advice:
1 - Don't visit my blog.
2 - Learn the difference between the US Constitution and the USS Constitution.
3 - Maintain a private journal.
Surely, every good thing has its drawbacks, and even if Shanti doesn't heed to the advice above, I'll take in in my stride, life's like that.
Mirza Ghalib comes to mind:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Qaasid ke aate aate, ik aur khat likh rakhoon
Main jaantaa hoon wo kyaa likhenge, jawaab mein.
Kab say hoon, kyaa bataaoon, jahaan-e-kharaab mein?
Shab haaye hijr ko bhi rakhoon gar hisaab mein.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this case, though, the hijr is more than welcome!
As far as stopping the crap is concerned:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Ghaalib' chhutee sharaab, par abh bhee kabhee kabhee
peetaa hoon roz-e-abr shab-e-maahtaab mein.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How appropriate can a poem be? Wah Mirza wah! Kya Khoob!
ps: If you are serious about stopping the crap, though, I know of someone whom you can consult. According to the Kumar conjecture, this person is singularly responsible for controlling the amount of crap in the Universe.
