Vatsap?

06 Feb 2005 – I was in my second year at IIT when I created my blog-site. It has survived so far! Here is my first blog-post.

Today, I primarily earn my living by doing a bunch of video-work. I also have an active (and mildly popular) Youtube Channel & IG handle.

One of the popular things about this site used to be Shitoons, that I have recently revived.

After IIT, I did have a corporate life for a while. I was a management consultant in India.

But in mid 2012, I took a year long sabbatical to experiment with life. I have not needed to get back to the corporate world since then.

A lot of it has to do with luck. May be most of it. I am grateful for what the universe has let me have.

Around the same time that I moved on from my corporate life, I married my then girlfriend (we had been dating for two years). Few months later, we moved to Goa as an experiment. That experiment is ongoing.

In the early years (2012-2018) of my freelancer life, I was really big on wedding photography. I got to travel across India (and even outside) for shoots, gave motivational talks about it, and made enough money to live a comfortable life with annual foreign vacations. Then I got bored.

I now have a love-hate relationship with weddings. I am also glad that I don’t necessarily depend on it for money. I do end up shooting few weddings once in a while.

At present, I often feel like digging deep and writing on the following areas – politics, social behaviour, economics, privacy rights, AI, Indian agriculture sector, startups, the education system, evolution of social media, and some more. The list is growing. Basically, I am interested in everything! 😀

By the way “importance less” could have been called unimportant. 😛

And bro, even I don’t understand why junta read my blogs! The world is stupid, ain’t it?

yeah dats wat! add some value to your blog bro. not even few of us care wat shit is goin in your daily life (or should I say hourly life 😉 ).. speakin frankly !
think about value added blogs.. value makes sense, meanin, worth ..okie

@Anony cum bro

‘Shit’ is the word! I prefer calling it blogshit! 😛 And that is exactly what I have to offer. If you find value in it, you are welcome. If you don’t, keep commenting anyways and keep coming back! Who knows, I might get serious about your suggestions and end up making you feel proud of me and my blog!

By the way you told earlier that there already are worthy, significant n contributing stuffs happening all around! Why then do you have to keep landing in my shitty hourly update? I am sure you would like to answer that, won’t you?

Hey, got here looking for comments on 10D Chennai- just moved into the city! Must say your comments section did keep me entertained while I waited for lunch hour 🙂
Cheers!

There was this guy see.
He wasn’t very bright and he reached his adult life without ever having learned “the facts”.
Somehow, it gets to be his wedding day.
While he is walking down the isle, his father tugs his sleeve and says,

“Son, when you get to the hotel room…Call me”

Hours later he gets to the hotel room with his beautiful blushing bride and he calls his father,

“Dad, we are the hotel, what do I do?”

“O.K. Son, listen up, take off your clothes and get in the bed, then she should take off her clothes and get in the bed, if not help her. Then either way, ah, call me”

A few moments later…

“Dad we took off our clothes and we are in the bed, what do I do?”

O.K. Son, listen up. Move real close to her and she should move real close to you, and then… Ah, call me.”

A few moments later…

“DAD! WE TOOK OFF OUR CLOTHES, GOT IN THE BED AND MOVED REAL CLOSE, WHAT DO I DO???”

“O.K. Son, Listen up, this is the most important part. Stick the long part of your body into the place where she goes to the bathroom.”

A few moments later…

“Dad, I’ve got my foot in the toilet, what do I do?”

@ Biggoga’s “Where you are going to meet new year?”

I’m going to meet New Year in my drawing room – in front of the TV! Would have loved to hang out with him in a pub or a disco too, but he’s a very introvert kinda person… likes to stay home!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha !

Vatsap… u need to put some spam protection on ur comments I guess!

🙁

I do have spam protection enabled – but spammers are getting intelligent by the day. Let’s hope for the best in days to come. 🙂

Sorry i had to unsubscribe.. Ur posts became too long to read (uninteresting and gay) 😉 and shitoons are rare. Thank you for keeping me entertained for so long.

Hello,

I was wondering if you accept guest post for your blog. If you do, I would like to submit a few. I’m a recent college graduate, with an English major, looking to build out my portfolio. I can write on a wide variety of topics and am sure you would be happy with the quality. Please email me back if you are interested. Thank you for your time.
