Seriousness is a Serious Business!

Posted on the 23 February 2014 by Rajrupa @irajrupa
Handle it with utmost care. Else it can make you sick. Like morphine. While little bit of it is actually good, too much of it can easily turn lethal. Seriousness can make you sick too, if you are not careful. Seriously! Trust me! It’s a disease, dis-ease! And an infectious one.Look around you, notice.  I am sure you can find such examples. After all, the world is full of people who are seriously sick with seriousness, jinki #ConditionSeriousHai. Still can’t find them? Here, poor you, let me show you few examples from my life. Remember it’s not the exhaustive list. Never ever. Just the tip of the ice berg.
1.  The Relationship Counselor They know more about your marriage than you actually. And they never fail to let you know that you are doing it all wrong. “Why does your album from Florida lack photos of you and your husband? Cluck, cluck. All wrong! All wrong!  Why are you letting your husband take photos with his friend and not you? Why do you still call him ‘tu’ and not ‘aap’? He is not your friend from college anymore, he is your husband! Why don’t you keep him on leash? Don’t be so easy on him. You will ruin it all, silly girl!” Oh! Stop making me so scared. And by the way did you know aapki #conditionserioushai? Have you ever consider taking a Cadbury 5 star? Please do! Because - Seriousness is a Serious Business!2.  The Obedient Worker. They are an interesting type. Probably predominant only among people who are here on temporary assignments. They would do anything to impress. “Sunday? Long weekend? No matter. I am available! You won’t be? No matter. I will handle. It’s 3 AM. So what? I am available. Two meetings at the same time? No matter. I can handle!” Oh! Did Dumbledore leave his time turner watch with you or did you steal it? In any case stop making me so nervous. By the way did you know your condition serious hai? Ever considered taking a Cadbury 5 star? Here let me buy you one!3.The Nagger. Now what do I say about them? You have probably come across them too! Haven’t you? They don’t let you rest. No matter how solemnly you pledged yourself to their cause, you will have no respite till it’s over. And then another whole new cycle will begin. They start like, “Did you get a chance to work on it?” and slowly progress to, “You still didn’t do it? I was expecting it complete by now? What’s keeping you so busy? Why don’t you do it first and then the rest of the things you need to do?” Oh I would’ve completed it by now. It’s just that I am surrounded by four more like you. So please excuse me, if you will? And meanwhile please munch on a Cadbury 5 star.4.  The Do-Gooder. They do have the best intentions at heart but overdo it most of the times. They jump off to help a homeless man keeping the car door open only to find the stereo stolen upon return. Sometimes they give meat to the hungry only to find that the hungry is a vegan. They donate their 10 year old used box spring to the neighbourhood Salvation Army. They go too close to helping a woman off the Subway with a huge bag and in return are offered her “services”. So please relax. Sit back. Will you? And buy a Cadbury 5 star from Patel Brothers.5.The Intellectual. Oh the most superior of all. At least they think they are. “Oh I am mentally superior to everyone around me. I am smarter. I am more worthy. I am like that because I am a Libra. Libras tend to be like that. They naturally have a superior brain. And of course astrology is a science. It’s similar to astronomy! Look at you! I knew you didn’t know that! And why exactly did you write the ‘wall was blue’? Are you depressed? Have you lost your inspiration? Oh I know. Poor you!” Of course poor me. I am friends with you. Here take a Cadbury 5 star. You must be hungry after all that talking!
So here are five of the most serious stars that adorn my life. Their #Conditionserioushai. I am sure you can spot ten more now around you. There. Didn’t I tell you that I will help you? I am damn sincere about eradicating the seriousness sickness. Come give a hand. Join the cause. Let’s all have a Cadbury 5 star. I am serious! Dont believe me? Watch this video.Love,Seriousness is a Serious Business!
