"I like to move it, move it!"

This is an (un)official announcement that I am moving my blog to a different gmail account for various reasons, one of them being convenience and another to have a single social media account. Well, only those two reasons actually.

And yes, I will be blogging again and blogging more so if you're still interested in what I have to say, do pay a visit to my new blog address - http://ravingandrantingsouliloquist.blogspot.in/

It's the same blog with a slightly different name and address. Same old, brand new blog.

Hope to see you there!

Pet(ty) Peeves

Foreword: This post was written on a 'bad' day but there's something about that frustrated tone of voice in there that I like. So I have decided to keep it as it is. With minor additions.



Ok so I am in a foul mood. Just had a long workday. Am really tired. And I feel like lashing out at all the irritating, annoying people that I would otherwise tolerate or ignore. No, I don't want to punch these people in the face. Just probably stare at them in disbelief, shake my head and ask them to stop. The irritating thing. Maybe raise my voice (a little) while asking them that.

Here they are in random order:

1. Some twitter users - I am relatively new to an active twitter life. Still looking to make my ground and finding the right people to follow. In the process, I have, and am, following some annoying people. Some of them are serial retweeters - they retweet anything. And everything. You tweet about how you like XYZ something. Ok, cool. And maybe someone replies to you and agrees with you. You know, a generic reply. The world won't be missing anything if they didn't know someone replied to you. But. You retweet their reply. Why? I wonder. Why! To show us that someone else agrees with your choice? *cough* desperate *cough*. Please don't clog my timeline with such retweets.

2. Girly girls - I am a girl. You are a girl. I behave normally. Why don't you? Why do you leave your hair open and preen it a million times a minute? If you can't handle your loose hair, tie it up! Why are you so irritatingly obsessed with pink? I like pink too. But I am not obsessed. I don't have pink shoes, a pink phone, pink hairband, pink nail paint, pink pencil, pink eraser, pink lipstick... I just have a pink top I like to wear. But you give me a bad name.

3. The workaholics - Wow, you stay late at work usually and are ok with it. Wow, you don't like or dislike a task because it has to be done no matter what. Wow, you find 'more difficult' work a welcome challenge.  Please take your bull-excrement and place it with pressure where the sun light does not reach.

4. Holier-than-thou - You're more religious than me. You're religious.You say your prayers and do your holy duties. You know more about religion than I would bother to find out. Good for you. But don't think for one second that it gives you the right to preach to me, you religious vampire!

Epilogue: Reading this on a 'good' day, I see the funny side. Hope it makes me for someones reading pleasure, apart from mine.
