Ok. In all our primary schools, in all parts of the world, we learn the basic meanings of words. one of the many being 'Crazy'.

        

cra·zy

   /ˈkreɪzi/ cra·zi·er, cra·zi·est, noun, plural cra·zies.

adjective

1. mentally deranged; demented; insane.

2. senseless; impractical; totally unsound: a crazy scheme.

I, personally have started feeling that this word was underplayed a bit, when taught to us. I mean, crying over a freaking cartoon strip in parliament when the rupee is at its lowest is definitely more than mentally deranged, demented or insane (btw, the word insane is only used to describe ones Saturday night party nowadays). I mean seriously, am I the only one seeing this? All you know is that a group of frustrated perverts, sitting in office, sparked off this rage on purpose, just so that they can watch porn (not even HD) peacefully while in session. See, now that's crazy.

My whole point of starting to blog about stuff is not just because I want to make fun of things happening (although that constitutes about 90% of the reason), I also want to pretend (like the millions out there) that 'We Can Make A Difference'.  Looking back at the first half of 2012, some seriously absurd stuff happened. Let me start off by talking about this new cool thing 'Satyameva Jayate'. Aamir Khan has officially become one of India's biggest role models after this show. Answer me this, what is the exact purpose of the show. Creating awareness or taking action? A very valid counter argument in this case is that creating awareness is the first step of taking action (and blah). Guys, we have been creating awareness about issues like female foeticide, sexual abuse, poverty, etc for 65 long years now. Everybody knows that these things are bad. Nobody is in favour of that crap. This show would have deserved the hype and praise it has got if it actually did something more substantial than donating the money gathered from sms. Biggest irony being that the host take home 3 crores per episode. Try getting 3 crore smses in the whole season people. The craziest part being that Satyameva Jayate took the whole nation by storm the day it was all aired (got this from twitter btw). This lasted for 3 hours exactly after which it was IPL's turn to take India by a storm. Amazing, ain't it? Personally, I think Bournvita Quiz Contest (which used to be aired at approximately the same time slot) did more social service than this one. At least it taught us stuff we had no clue about.

Anyhow, this was just me and my views. I maybe wrong, but I mind don't being wrong here. I do a great job of pretending that I care. Actually that's not true, I fell asleep during the show (twice).

I will be back with my takes on what happens in India and outside it. Do comment. Ciao.
