A FEW PRECIOUS STONES

This post is dedicated to my best friend(you know who you are), and for those who wished my notes to be resurrected.
5 years have taught me that a best friend is someone who drags you out into the light, and shows you where you stand.
there are a lot of 'references to context' in the note below. the names are held back for obvious reasons:

1. news on the television. a few batchmates are in a room at the attavar hospital. the headlines say:
"Cop killed in cold-blooded murder"
K: "how can it be cold-blooded? we're warm blooded right?"

2. A: "da, you think, if i have a son, and you have a daughter, they can get married to each other?"
B: "you are not coming ANYWHERE my son, my daughter, or any other member of my family!"

3. D: "da, i'm gonna have a colonoscopy done.."
A: "oh.."
D: "without anesthesia.."
A: "what? why?"
D: "i want to experience what a homosexual goes through."
A: "oh, ok..
(the next day)
A: " how was it?"
D: (shaking head, pressing lips together)
"not.good"

4. A group of guys are at a bar/hotel and are ordering drinks. a lot of pegs of hard liquor are on the way to the table.
E: "you ordered?"
A: "yeah"
E: "what're you having?"
A: "wine."
E: "what? wine? order something else man. vodka, rum, whisky..."
A: "wine is royal man. the French have it. The emperor Louis the XIV had it during the 15th century."
E: "oh, ok. but i'm pretty sure Louis the XIV didnt drink a 25 rupees bottle of local Golkonda wine.. ok?"

5. one co-intern(f) to another.
I: "why did you decide to do internship here?"
A: " i have friends here."
A: " why did YOU decide to do internship here?
do you have a boyfriend?"
I: "no."
A: " a girl-friend?"
I: "no"
D: " a dog?"

6.senthil's on my bike. i'm riding. we've just missed a bus, a lorry, a bicycle crossing the road, and an old woman. I'm driving at 40 km/hr on a narrow road. he hasn't said a word so far.
me: "senthil, sometimes i have a feeling that i'm a rash driver"
senthil: (pats on the back) "the feeling is mutual dude"..

7.G: "sometimes i have a feeling that i like you..."
J: "*smiles*
G: "but the feeling lasts for a very short time.."
J: *frowns*

8.F : "dude, there's this real cute chick sitting in the lib man!"
A: "oh, ok. which batch?"
F: "dont think she's in my batch man.."
A: "ok then, which course?"
F: "nope, no idea. wait, i'll check"
( he disappears and appears a little while later)
F: " i dont think she's in this college dude. she was studying something totally different. tried speaking to her"
A : "oh, thats strange"
( A and F walk out) meet R.
R: "hey guys! whats up?"
A: "there's this real cute chick inside the lib man. haven't seen her before."
R: " oh, which batch?"
F:"oh, she was studying _______ course"
R: "SH**! thats the dean's daughter! you tried hitting on the dean's daughter? you're brave man!"
F : "!!"
A : (laughs)

9. M: (calling up a close friend who's doing internship in a different state)
(abuses the person N, his family and showers a flurry of bad words)

N( on the other end of the line, amongst family members)
: "ah, yes. home, kmc. (heaves a sigh of relief) i love you too man."

  1. I see what you mean by spontaneous jokes. You have friends with a good sense of humour. :)
