Greetings, again! And you were thinking that the Juggernaut was gone for good! Ha! Things never get that good, do they?
People who say that relationships between people are dynamic don’t know what they’re talking about. The truth is that we’ve got some pretty rigid templates for each other. It’s good in a sense. Imagine having to start off from scratch the moment you see someone. Nah… it’s better if there’s a template guiding you. I mean… life is so simple when you know the basic rules.
Cute girl= Flirt!…………………………(1)
Secretary = Flirt with pride!……………(2)
Boss = hate!…………………………̷
0;.(3)
Wife = fear!…………………………̷
0;..(4)
Husband = Exploit!……………………...(5)
Juggernaut = Laugh at!…………………..(6)
Any more equations = Close this window!.(7)
Having fun reading this crap? Great!
You know what? I’ve got a reputation to keep. I mean, since I have returned under my own skin, I just have to give you some psychobabble. So here goes… The basic question is, why do we hate bosses? Ok, fine, it’s a very crude generalization that everyone hates bosses. Let’s soften our tone. We always start off feeling tentative about our bosses—why? The oh-so-like-juggernaut, totally psychological and completely obvious answer is… Because comparatively, we’re at a position of lower power and influence and therefore we feel insecure. Of course, this is the BIGGEST crap in everyone’s lives, isn’t it?
You don’t need to thank me. It’s my responsibility to remind everyone about the crap in their lives.
From the perspective of Equation 3, the ad is actually the best in the business. After the childish ads about making the boss sit on chocolate cake and spraying loo-water all over the front of his coat, this was a welcome change. It’s a sign that… ah! Finally, the Indian ad-makers got their alphabet right!
Strictly speaking, though the concept is interesting, its execution caters only to that lot of viewers who haven’t found more sophisticated and subtler ways of insulting each other. I mean… the concept of converting a WORD into a “Woefully Obvious Rut of Dunderheadedness” is boring and old. The “CUTE= Creating Unnecessary Trouble Everywhere” crap… (I know… equation overload… mathematical crap…).
Are you getting tired of the word ‘crap’? I know… That means you’re bursting to say—“Cut the crap!”
Fair enough, the first perspective gives the ad only 7 out of 10. The anatomy of the seven is as follows… (I can almost see your face sicken…)… Three points for the fact that HARI was made into Hitler Arrogant Rascal Idiot and not… erm…. Haram-Kh** something… That could’ve been bad. As bad as me… Two points for the fact that the name HARI SADU sounds a lot like “I’m Stinking Poo”. And two points for the conclusive “S for shameless”… It reminded me of the day when I finally stood up for myself and told my mom… “Ma… I don’t like bhindi…”
(She’s almost as bad with me about my eating habits as SADU is about everything else…)
So now you’re thinking that the review is done finally. I’ve said whatever I’ve had to say. <Sigh>… You’re right this time.
Crap! I don’t have no more to write! Dang, how irritating!
PS: If you’re not going to give me a low rating, you’re not going to give me a fair rating. This review sucked like hell didn’t it?
PPS: Better short and to the point rather than… S for shameful!
