WEll ROTD is officially, mind-numbingly, batter my head against a brick wall bored…and don’t go giving me that “only boring people get bored crap” because from the minute before and after I’m in this insipid landscape the world is a kaleidoscopic tunnel of brilliant insanity…
such is office life. So here’s a random list of things [...]
ok. all I want to know is this…why are so many people who land on my site searching the web for “Desi Pissing Aunties”. This phrase has come up hundreds of times as the search engine terms that led people here…I suspect the “Agony Aunty” section is what lures them…

Banana Brothers 2, Watercolour by Dileep Sharma
So I went to the closing party for an art exhibit in Bombay that was curated by a close friend of mine. The paintings had all been moved to the interior of a swanky night club, and the lighting was perfect…tables of stone floating between miniature rivers filled with [...]

well as the last trickle of rains falls down in Bombay, we are enjoying the annoying house guests of the season; mosquitos. Some people are coming down with Dengue fever…or “Dengu” as our cook back home likes to call it. I guess too much of a good thing can get a bit pissing [...]
So I’m walking to work today from the train station and it starts to rain. Of course I forgot my umbrella. So I put one hand over my eyes so that my mascara wont come dripping down my cheeks like Courtney Love. I’m walking along, by the side of the highway, muttering “whatever” to the [...]
So ummm…of the many holidays that seem to creep up and sort of poke me on the side of the head, “Friendship Day” day (first Sunday of every August) is among them, and quite happily, I didn’t receive a single happy friendship day wish- which means two things 1) I have no creepy male friends [...]

Please tell me why does no one seem to notice this fact? They come out of a person’s stomach for god sakes! Two other things do that: 1)vomit 2) feces. They are little flesh monsters covered in slime that obviously have powers of mind control- hence all adults look at these tiny slobber [...]
Did you know that you can browse google without wasting as much energy and at the same time have a classy google web page that makes you feel sort of like an ecofriendly vampire?
Well you can. Just click blackle.com or earthle.com to check it out. And, incidentally, read why ROTD’s colour codes are [...]
Gutting through the last of one of those annoying Mondays? I am, anyway. Working towards a deadline and suddenly am very tired and with the rest of the week’s tasks ahead the finish line seems even further away. The weekend just seemed to slip through my fingers this time around, and I’m tired and cranky [...]

Hanuman is the guy you ask for help when you need to get out of an impossible situation. He’s an ideas man/monkey and he knows the fastest way between two points often involves a bit of swinging from branches and scaling up buildings. “What idiot invented stairs anyway?” he says, “ Must have [...]

Its late some time on Friday night/Saturday morning and I’m not out guzzling beers with friends (save that for Saturday). My man has returned home after a long hard day’s work and after consuming sustenance has promptly collapsed into a deep sleep. “You couldn’t possibly understand this kind of tiredness” he says [...]
So I’m sorting through a stack of Mumbai’s finest pirated dvds that I’d looted from a hidden little shop that can only be found through word of mouth (you have to go in and around alley ways, through filthy corridors of an ancient building till you arrive at a sparkling little sanitized shop stuffed full [...]

This isn’t the first time its happened…but it really disgusts me each time I see it happen in the media…there was this girl who got stabbed by her boyfriend because her family refused his proposal of marriage because had a drinking problem. So naturally the guy decides that if he can’t have her…no [...]
FINALLY…the rain came to rescue us in Chandigarh
It was getting so unbelievably hot over here…you can’t imagine…I mean it was getting to the point of being SO hot that you could LITERALLY see mirages of an oasis appear on the surface of the sticky tar-coated streets…our brains were cooking in our skulls…air conditioners were breaking [...]
Remains of the Desi brings you another guest writer, who by chance…also shares the French Connection. But this one isn’t a chef fusing cuisines…he is the cuisine. Sanjay Lafont is one part Pujabi/one part French. You might ask…but which part is which? I would say…he lucked out…he got the Punjabi looks and the French aesthetic [...]
