Disclainer: the following is a bucket load of rambling. proceed if interested. reader must read only if he/she have no self preservation of your sanity. read on crazy minds!
To my regular readers (if there are any) you must be waiting
for my customary post about the pre-rain , during rain and post- rains posts. Well,
as the arrival of rains this time was late i was “khafa” (upset, zindagi serial
effects) with the rain gods and posted it well into the monsoon. Apart from
having self doubts about my writing abilities , all thanks to GRE super human
vocabs. I mean c'mon who uses words that take half a day to pronounce and
longer time to spell and said once in every solstice . Keeping my whinnying aside i lunge into the topic of
monsoon.
This time i am not going to romanticize monsoon. I am going
to talk about a nuisance that gets introduced like the help at your place who
turns up when you are going to have a party at your place when your parents are
away (not from experience ;) ) :drum rolls please: MOSQUITOES!! Yes. Those tiny
buzzing irritating to death mosquitoes. Monsoon famously brings machar and
makhis. The former being also the buzzing irritating to death traits but their
job profile includes sucking blood and transferring dangerous diseases like
malaria, dengue. While the more squashy and blotted looking counterpart the “makhis”
love to spread the ill health of diarrhoea and other stomach cleansing
diseases.
I am going to restrict my say to “makhis” only, in other
words flies. Makhis sound way cooler and i am an ultra cool person, makhi it is.
Apart from spreading disease it loves to entertain itself by buzzing around you
for no apparent purpose. You could spend
a whole day running around the house with a newspaper roll trying to swat into
cutlet or with chopsticks (over-inspired ninja movies), unless its a lazy fat makhi
or may be oldage it refuses to die.
If “makhis” would have brains they would strive for world
domination! With their numbers and killer instincts of that of spreading
disease and annoying effect. People would either poop to death or suicide out
of the the annoyance of makhis. If there was a similar experiment as that shown
in the movie “deep blue sea” or something like that ,where they inject the
sharks with brain matter and make them super intelligent (why on earth you want super intelligent sharks?!weren't they dangerous enough!). If such a thing was
done i am sure the world would get a “makhi hitler” who wouldn’t fail in world domination
this time.
As gre has taught me to support your statement with a good
example. The movie called makhi which was a remake of a south movie (surprise
surprise) where the hero turns into a fly and seeks revenge. Is a pure example
of what they are actually capable of. And their nuisance value is very well
illustrated in the episode “the fly” in”breaking bad” (googly eyed thinking of
breaking bad) .
Rethink of the power of makhis as you are chasing it with a
newspaper roll, will you be spared if they revolt against humanity?! A paisa
for your thoughts. (going desi as independence day nears)
