"Eclipse"

Friend: People in India are really afraid of an eclipse.

Me: Yeah, I dunno why. It is just an IDE, after all.

"Contradictory Proverbs"

Have you ever wondered how sometimes two proverbs can mean entirely opposite things, yet seem equally believable?

Here's an example:

"Out of sight, out of mind." vs. "Absence makes the heart grow fonder."

Both of them are seemingly true, so which is more correct? (Don't say "it depends".)

Here's a solution to the paradox -- let Google decide!

"Out of sight, out of mind": 998,000 results.
"Absence makes the heart grow fonder." 176,000 results.

We have a winner!

~ I don't see you any more. Ergo, you're out of my mind now. Goodbye!

"Light Reading"

Q: How much does a 'light'bulb weigh?
A: It actually weighs less than it lux.

Too subtle? Lux ~ looks. Also, lux is the SI unit of illuminance.

Sorry, that was bad. I'm sure I candela better joke. >.>

"I'm Going to be OK"

I.

(An own composition)

The "food" doesn't agree with me; I shit three times a day
But don't worry about me, I'm going to be OK.

The language is alien; can't get a word of what they say
But don't worry about me, I'm going to be OK.

Only guys all around (and a couple might be gay)
But don't worry about me, I'm going to be OK.

Not a restaurant in sight -- not even a café
But don't worry about me, I'm going to be OK.

I suck at every sport, yet I go out and play
But don't worry about me, I'm going to be OK.

Everyone (but me) studies all night (and day)
But don't worry about me, I'm going to be OK.

The skies are either too bright, or too dull and gray
But don't worry about me, I'm going to be OK.

No internet after 12 a.m. -- "Good night!", they say
But don't worry about me, I'm going to be OK.

Just ten months over here, then I'll head to the USA
Don't worry about me -- I'm going to be OK.

Disclaimer:
Don't take seriously what I had to say.
Really. It's not bad here. It's pretty OK.
Blending fact, fiction and fantasy
It's called poetic license, OK?

II.

(Lyrics of 3 Doors Down's "Here Without You")

A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same
But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face

III.

My dose is blogged. I have a gold. Does anybody 'ave a gure for by stubby dose? :(

IV: Epilogue

I'm OK. I'm fine. I'm feeling better.

"A Classy Pun"

Classmate: We should have more classes on Java.
Me: Dude, Java is full of classes.

Yay, my first Java pun!

~ Bas, aaj ke liye coffee hai.

"Choosing Your Friends"

The following was written on the back of one of my notebooks:

Obviously, I felt I could come up with something better:

"Choose your friends like you choose your socks -- make sure they match, and don't stink."

Update/P.S: This friendship-themed post having happened to have been posted on Friendship Day was purely a coincidence! Really!
