Interesting feelings evoked by the happenings all over.
Self
“So inspired were software developers by PM’s speech that they changed all the global variables to local variables” someone said.
I responded with “So object oriented they became that all their methods were folded into self->f()”
Atmanirbhar
How does reducing EPF percentage, or paying lower TDS deemed as fund injection, people asked in response to the claimed massive stimuli by the government. C’mon peoples, this is Atmanirbhar, no ? Use your own money to become self-reliant? Super idea, no?
Words
Covfefe sent Americans into a tizzy. Atma* speech left Indians dizzy. The first was a mistake in spelling, the second complicated telling. Super sillycon engagement.
Onsite
Pre-corona, onsite posting was the carrot offered by IT service companies. Now all that is being offered by these companies is WFH. Interesting, no?
EMI
As we have been noticing, the lockdown gets extended by few more weeks when it nears the end. Frustrated, my friend asked “Why is the Govt not bold enough to announce lockdown until end of the year?”
“Well, this is the EMI version” I said 🙂
Red
Red light area was all about touching. Now, red zone is all about distancing.
Red light area was about unmasking. Now, red zone is about being masked.
In red light area, you catch the virus. In the red zone, the virus catches you.
If you live in this zone, you can say “I live in the red light area, sorry red zone!”.
Mask
When life was free and unbounded, we wore masks inside, hiding who we really are. Constrained and locked down now, we now show our real face, but damn, it is hidden by the external mask.
The great unmasking
Thanks to the unseen little fellow we are getting to things really distant. In Delhi my friend was delighted to see the stars, in another city they can see Himalayan peaks. Hey, did you realise that you are seeing behaviours never seen before in your spouse?
Get back inside
Ok, the festivities of bursting all over. Now get back inside and put on your damn mask.
