India is a sex starved nation !

SearchIndia.com Responds:

Whether the incidents are happening because India is a sex-starved nation or because of a premieval urge to inflict violence on a helpless being, for the victim it’s traumatic.

SearchIndia.com Responds:

Not yet.

Maybe, we’ll watch Machchakaran today.

Or maybe just get out and mow the lawn with the $136 electric lawn-mower we recently got from Amazon

SearchIndia.com Responds:

Tired (from eating and drinking too much).

We’ll take a break and watch the 1944 movie Double Indemnity on Netflix Instant Play.

SearchIndia.com Responds:

Thanks for the compliment.

You allowed me to save my face. Love you. [I hate SI!]

Thanks for the clarification of the password [the (edited: genius) SI could not do it ]

Btw, my name is not the one that comes in the song. It follows a different ‘la’ and not ‘lla’ [Not 'zha' too ]. While the word in the song represents a name of the raaga, my name means – prince [after 'BooPathi' which means a king [also has several other meanings]], son of the soil, and a name of Lord Muruga. Thanks for giving me an opportunity to boast

In fact my name contained a ‘b’ after ‘boo’ instead of ‘p’ [till my schooling].

Yes, I am used to the diabolical sorcerers at SI, still I fell prey

SearchIndia.com Responds:

Your name also contains ‘Boo.’

Your name reminded me of this song
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0mjFqtI2QU
should belong in the IR Classics.

Lad is one of the most colorful characters in this teacup. Dunno if Lad deliberately wanted to yank your chains (he can be mean like that after getting inebriated with heavy metal songs).. if he didn’t, i am surprised that he misunderstood you.. his comprehension is usually pretty good.

SI knows how to yank most of our chains.. with outrageous titles for the Incredible India series or scathing attacks against our beloved movie stars like Abhishek Bachchan.. The uninitiated will get easily agitated them.. come into wage a war against SI and but instead fall in love with them and end up making babies (burgeoning comments section) with SI and the other members of this community. Diabolical.

1. Thanks for the clarification on the password.

As the above URL explains, you can go to ‘profile’ and change it. But if you’ve lost your password, then the system mails you a password, which you can use to log into your profile and change the password.

2. Nice song.

3. Folks have been heard to say that such innocence as ours is unsuited for the Kali Yuga and here you are spinning your ‘diabolical’ theories about our Machiavellian strategy. Sob, sob.

4. As most readers here will undoubtedly agree, our intention with the headlines is to pick the most apposite one and most definitely not the most outrageous one.

Example :
27% reservation for OBC ’s or the 69% reservation in TN is a joke …in today’s rural India the OBC’s are the aggressors and Dalits / SC/ ST / Tribals are the victims ….they all are included in the reserved category …..People belonging to the later category dont have access even to primary education and hence are unable to take advantage of sops offered by the govt …..casteism is today perpetuated by the likes of Karunanidhi . Mulayam , Laloo etc …

SI does have left leanings ….quoting and reading …..books of historians who write fiction in the name of History …

SearchIndia.com Responds:

You write: SI does have left leanings ….quoting and reading …..books of historians who write fiction in the name of History …

Talk is cheap.

Please provide examples of writers we have quoted ‘who write fiction in the name of History.’

2. I don’t mean Lost password, but to set a password of my choice.

1. StrYngLad74 dude did not get agitated over whatever was not said? Or did I sound like I said it or it was my opinion (Don’t know where my written text went wrong)?

SearchIndia.com Responds:

1. StrYngLad74 is a pro at this game. What we mean here is he/she/it can argue from both perspectives of an argument because of wide reading (which often but not always improves analytical/debating skills).

2. If you’ve lost your password, then the system mails you a password, which you can use to log into your profile and then change the password.

If there is a section to display recent comments in SI [I believe this gadget is there], it would be better. Sometimes we comment on old articles, but to see reply again, we need to navigate back.

How do I change password for this account?

SearchIndia.com Responds:

1. We used the expression storm in a teacup earlier because we thought you were getting agitated over StrYngLad74’s comments.

2. You write: How do I change password for this account?

SI is like the approaching storm that the little Mexican kid in the gas station warns Linda Hamilton about at the end of Terminator 1.

You ain’t seen nothing yet.

Machchana Pathingala

Mister, I did not justify whatever happened in TN, and I did not deny too. You assumed so. I repeat what I said in the last comment, that whatever I said was karuna’s perspective. When SI asked,

“When did the decrepit loose paiya (Karuna) make racist remarks? We don’t recollect seeing any.”

I listed down all the views of Karuna, and what he thinks about SI & NI. I clearly mentioned “For him”, the issues were so.

There was not a necessary for you to write a long thesis on Tamil-bashing, since I did not intend to blame any party NI / SI. You assumed it and you did. Please don’t try to behave like an eye-opener and give a bit of gyaan, since whatever you told was something that I know and agree with. They are not new. I have denied only the points you thought I said.

Avoid replying in a hasty manner. I can also slam with numerous supporting points. But I do not want to stretch this useless argument.

SearchIndia may go on to deactivate my account, if I was blaming North Indians and giving biased views here, right in this discussion as some people understand.

“Plus, I didn’t tell you “HOW” to read, but “WHAT” to read.”

Very clever. Silly attempt to win the argument. A blown-up kiddo having to study the contextual meanings.

For heavensake, stop arguing on matters that were not actually brought for debates here unnecessarily.

Storm in a teacup.

The Sikhs were a truly victimized by Indira Gandhi’s policies. I’d go out on a limb to say they had a more valid reason for secession (even though I don’t support secessionists) than the Rajputs. Most of these “Ranas” who started the Rajputana movement are nothing more than billionaires who’re bawling that they’re now millionaires. They just want their ultra-conservative, patriarchal system reinstated, which includes such noble practices like Sati/Jauhar. Have you guys read about Roop Kanwar?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roop_Kanwar

Obviously, the not-so-wealthy Rajputs buy into such secessionist bullshit for reasons of faux-pride.

SI Said: “Let the schmucks first raise enough money to acquire an independent domain name and independent hosting before all this drivel of how Brahmins plundered Rajasthan.”

Kinda hard to believe a bunch of grass-chomping, chotiwaalas (pony-tailed people) had this much influence to “plunder” wealth and ruin peoples lives in every region. So much for “Bhawathi Bhiksham Dehi!” (Mother, give me alms!). But yeah, I wasn’t there to witness, so who knows?

SI said: “BTW, did you notice they describe the Dalits and Dravidians (and by extension Tamils, Kannadigas, Telugus et al) as Sudroid Negroes. The word Sudroid probably has its roots in Sudra.”

The irony is delicious, but I’ve never heard of a “Sudroid” race. They might be referring to the “Veddah” people who bear resemblance to Australoids, and were prevalent in South India and Sri Lanka, as per anthropological literature.

BTW, the “pure blood” Aborigines in Australia are known to discriminate against the mixed-bloods. So much for “playing the victim.”

Just wanted to focus your attention on a very intellectual mind in Pakistan called Hassan Nisar. Listen to his monologue here, and that should put the “playing the victim” act to rest:

SearchIndia.com Responds:

Hassan Nisar seems to be quite popular with many a Pakistani youngster. They see the difference between the Pak clergy who think all wisdom flows solely from the Quran and a well-informed, introspective mind like Nisar.

Yes, we’re familiar with the tragedy of Roop Kanwar.

No generalizations, I speak from experience. I spent a considerable amount of time in Tamil Nadu to know that speaking in Hindi results in angry stares, North-Indian bashing is aplenty (like I said before, without having even met one or even having been there), and who can forget the evergreen “black paint over the Hindi writing”, huh? Care to deny that last bit? As Russell Peters would say, I don’t make stereotypes, I just see them.

Moreover, I did say my experiences were based on my visits during the eighties and my undergrad stint in the nineties and I hoped it was better now. Somehow you missed that, Einstein?

boopalanj said: “Losing temper soon is not good for health, Kiddo! I am not in need of any advice, and none needs to teach me how to read.”

I was annoyed and didn’t lose my temper.

Plus, I didn’t tell you “HOW” to read, but “WHAT” to read.

For someone telling me I ought to read other comments, you surely didn’t read mine thoroughly. “Kiddo”, indeed!

SearchIndia.com Responds:

We too have seen that black paint over Hindi boards in Tamil Nadu.
