Coincidence? I think not

Man, sometimes you realise that the stand-up who said that God has a weird sense of humour wasn’t kidding. God doesn’t laugh on a “A man walks into a bar and says to the bartender…” joke. He needs complex irony so tickle His funny bone.

Like when last night I had some really spicy food from a not so clean joint in Kalbadevi. I wake up to my bowels complaining and fidgety. Needless to say, I’ve made umpteen visits to the office loo. I even had a banana and a Dependal tablet, but well some things you just cannot control. I would have tried wearing red underwear, but that joke is too lame, even for me.

To top it off, it was spicy food I ate. For the benefit of those readers who are not yet familiar with how graphic I can get in my observations and descriptions, I am going to let your intelligence and imagination collectively figure what I mean by this.

Ah yes, about God’s sense of humour… I got back to my seat after one of my visits to the restroom cursing the spicy food and guess which song is playing on my laptop…
