I do understand that you feel the need to consult your daily horoscope every day on Facebook. And of course I can accept the fact that you must ask Mystical Meg a whole bunch of questions before you can make a decision of any sort. And believe me – I too want to know how many people have a crush on me and who my Enemy of the Day is. And when I get bored, I take random Facebook quizzes too, just like you.

Arcopol Chaudhri in a candid chat with Allah, about the faith business and socializing with other Gods:
I noticed you called him ‘my friend Ganesha’. You know the elephant God well?
Of course! Why wouldn’t I? We’re in the same business. The business of faith. I sell my wares differently. He does it in his own way. But yes, we do socialise. The other day, it was the three of us – me, Ganesha and Krishna – who went to the Kurkure Desi Beats Rock on with MTV auditions. Krishna is a great flutist you’d be aware. We also went to Blue Frog to bless Rajeev Raja, another wonderful flutist. Krishna says Raja is his own avatar in the making…

Then of course there’s mass India, people laughing at sexual innuendos, established puns and local mimicry and for whom jokes like Microsoft or Viagra at that cocktail party are on the sophisticated end of the scale. This India, arguably, has undergone a larger revolution than its urban counterpart, seeing the rise of young comics born out of an explosion of reality television.

If you are a Letterman fan like me, you would have seen and loved hilarious segments where Dave creates situations like ‘How many Spidermen can you fit in a Jamba Juice?’. On my recent trip to the Indian sub-continent, I encountered a similar situation, but the subject was ‘How many times will your boarding pass be checked on a given flight?’
Ever wonder how important your boarding pass is when you fly? Quirk Quotient takes a look at the number of doors that open when you show your boarding pass[hat tip: Rhishikesh Pethe]
