Dyslexic thought for the day

To fully appreciate this one, first read the thought for the day (posted 28 Feb).

So, here goes with the Dyslexic thought for the day:

The pun is mightier than the words.

More Deft-nitions

Self-fulfilling prophecy:

Seeing a rotee on a tavaa and predicting that it will puff up on its own.

Useful chemical

The Chemistry teacher told the class that they would now be told the uses of the chemicals they had been studying.

"For example, do you know where benzene is used?" she asked.

She was surprised when Chantu raised his hand.

"Yes, ma'm," he said. "It is used in making Mercedes Benzes."

At the heart of 'believe'

At the heart of 'believe' is 'lie'.
Be suspicious. Be very suspicious.

Anti-social network

If you want to make a phony profile or spoof a celebrity, which social network do you use?

Go on, guess...

It's easy...

Fakebook, of course. It's the most famous anti-social network on the internet.

Facebook की एक कहानी भाग 2

खैर, वृद्ध ने इधर-उधर पूछ के पता कर लिया की facebook क्या है। लड़के से भी पूछ आये और अपनी भतीजी को बताया कि, हाँ, लड़के का facebook account है।

भतीजी निकली ढूँढने। लड़के का नाम 'अजय कुमार' जैसे कोई आम नाम था (नहीं, उसका नाम अजय कुमार नहीं था), तो भतीजी को मिले कोई १०० 'अजय कुमार'। उसने वृद्ध को फ़ोन किया कि पूछो उसने कमीज़ कैसी पहनी है?

वृद्ध ने पूछ लिया, और जवाब दिया कि धारियों वाली कमीज़ है।

फिर मुश्किल। ऐसे भी १५ लड़के निकले। भतीजी ने फ़ोन घुमाया, "पूछना ज़रा, धारियां चौड़ी हैं या पतली?"

जहाँ तक मुझे पता है, खोज अभी जारी है।

Facebook part 2

Anyway, the old man asked someone else what this 'facebook' was all about, and was greatly enlightened. He asked the 'boy' if he was on facebook and promptly informed his niece that the answer was yes.

Now the 'boy' had a fairly common name, like Ajay Kumar (not his real name), so when the niece went hunting on facebook, she found about a hundred people. So she asked her uncle what shirt the 'boy' was wearing on facebook.

The answer was duly conveyed back: a striped shirt.

Next day, the niece was back. There were 20 Ajay Kumars with striped shirts. "Ask him," she said, "whether the stripes are wide or narrow."

The search is still on, far as I know.

Facebook की एक कहानी भाग 1

एक वृद्ध को अपनी भतीजी की बेटी के लिए एक अच्छा रिश्ता सूझा। भतीजी को भी लड़के का विवरण पसंद आया, और उसकी फोटो देखने का दिल किया। पर उसे जल्दी-जल्दी रिश्ता बढ़ाना भी नहीं था। इसलिए उसने ताउजी से पूछा, "क्या वह facebook पर है?"

अब ताउजी कैसे मान जाएँ की उन्हें facebook का अदा-पता नहीं? वह झल्ला उठे: "पगली! यहाँ मैं तुझे उसका face दिखा रहा हूँ, और तू facebook-facebook बोले जा रही है!"
