We had our first club meet today.
XYZ is the "in" thing. This is serious stuff. And I am serious about it.
So were countless others when we signed on the dotted line. Money changed palms. The process was kickstarted. The "oven" as it was fondly called during the introductory sessions has now become this pleasant place with the occasional breeze where you no longer had to look for an escape route and find none.
I am sitting with a bunch of seriously funny people. They are honest to goodness cusses who want a good time and a boring guy to make the time better.
The meeting appears to have started. The characters are droning their parts and enacting the same inanities that we discussed last week. Only the language for some reason has become more obscure. "Upstream" and "downstream" are now in. My idea about them is foggy but I am confident if you shit upstream and pollute the pond, some -unlucky-downstream- recipient would remember the ladies of your family on broad artistic lines and take liberties on varied sexual variants where he would protray the male protagonist.
I am not very bright so I keep my mouth shut. I am also smart in a dumb sort of way so I do not volunteer. For anything.
More droning ensues and power corp after software giant is saved from doom or redeemed by a knight in shining armour and carrying a laptop.
The guys around me are rocking big time. I have not heard better innuendo in a long time. Long live punjabi. It is god's gift to those who need more to self express.
For many years now I have cussed exclusively in English. It sounds great to hear it all in Hindi/Punjabi. I am having a good time. It is returning home in many ways. Must make it a point to encourage all my friends to give up their deviant western ways and re-embrace the mother tongue. "You m*************r never sounded as rounded and homely as the home grown "teri ma ki..."
1:15 AM XYZ is sounding as alive as a dead corpse taking a loo break. A killjoy I can safely say.
1:20 AM We are winding up now. The guys around me have given me great entertainment. Can't say the same about those who inadvertently invited me for the show though.
