Bangalore to Chennai.... @
By Whoosh 2 @ 1:53 am      15 Comments
My bus journeys from Bangalore to Chennai or in the reverse direction are never uneventful.. Yesterday night, I took the KPN 11pm bus from Bangalore to Chennai.. En seat number 10. (window seat). Pakkathu seat number ennannu kandupideenga.... 9 nnu sonnavanga elaarum thangalapathi thaan eppovumey nenachittu irupaangalaatum irukku ;) hehe.. .. Pakkathu seat number 11. (Aisle seat). Seat number 11 la irundhavarukku naan vecha peru, "Loose Maakaan"..

The following is the dialogue that ensued between Loose Maakaan and Me...

(I got into the bus and found that this fellow was sitting in his own place and my place was free.. I felt happy that no one else had occupied my seat..)

Me: Hi. I am in seat 10. I would like to go in.
(I dont know what this fellow heard, he immediately shifted to seat 10)
L: Ok. I will sit in seat 10. No issues.
V: No No. I meant I want to sit in seat 10.
L: Is yours seat 10?
V: err. Yes.
L: I thought mine was seat 10.
V: Well, u were sitting in seat 11 so long, werent u?
L: (pointing to seat 11) So is this seat 11?
V: Yes.
L: So, this is your seat, right?
V: No Mister, Mine is seat 10. The one where u are sitting now. Yours is seat 11, the one where u were actually sitting.
L: Then why did u ask me to sit in seat 10?
V: When did I ask u to sit in seat 10?
L: As soon as u got in...
V: I said I wanted to sit in seat 10.
L: Did u ask the conductor if it was okay to sit in seat 10.
V: Whats wrong with you yaar? seat 10 is my seat. Why should I ask the conductor?
L: Oh, your ticket says seat 10??
V: YEAH!!!
L: Then what does mine say?
V: How would I know?
L: Let me check..
V: Ok, please do so..
L: (Looks at his ticket).. Hmm.. It says seat 11.
V: Obviously...
L: So, I need to sit here?? (pointing to seat 11)
V: Yes sir. If you dont mind, that is...
L: No No.. Absolutely not. No issues..

He shifted to his own seat.. I placed my luggage in the overhead cabinet and I was about to sit down in my seat.. Only then did I notice that the seat was a bit wet.

V: Yen seat-u wet aa irukku?
L: Enna ketaa? Enakku enna theriyum?
V: ( I called the conductor).. Conductor, seat wet aa irukku paarunga... Yen?
C: (At L) Sir, seat yen sir wet-aa irukku?
L: En water bottle lendhu thanni kottidichi!
V: Idhei naan kekkumbodhey solli irukalaam illai!
L: Neenga ketaa naan sollanumaa?
V: (Aargghhhh!!!).
C: Sir, irunga. Naan oru blanket tharein. Adhei seat melai pottukonga.
V: Hmmm.. Seri. Thanks!

The AC was not switched on as yet and the entire bus was a bit stuffy then!

L: Isnt it very stuffy in here..
V: (Aarambichitaanyaa!!!) Err yes. The AC is not on.
L: Yeah, I can see that.
V: Ok.
L: I am going to have a smoke. Hope the stuffy feeling goes away then..
V: (Dum adichaa stuffy feeling eppadi pogum??!!!@!@!@!)

He gets down and has a puff. He comes back and sits in his place. Avan vandhadhukku appuram full bus-ey gabbadikka aarambichidichi! The stuffy feeling was thousand times better than the stench from his mouth!!!

Oru 10 minutes kalichi bus kalambidichi. Seri thoongalaamnu naan kanna moodunein.. Oru two minutes kalichi oru small sound.. (ooor-nnu).. Seri, onnum irukaadhunnu freeya-vittein.. Marubadiyum adhey sound ketichi. Ennadaannu thirumbi paathaa, namma loose maakaan, vomit varra maathiri action pannittu irundhaan.. "Pochi-da" nnu nenachikutein..

Avan aduthavaati adhey action pannumbodhu, I asked him...

V: Excuse me.. Are u all right?
L: Umm Umm (Meaning "Yes Yes")
V: Vomit varaamaathiri irukaa???
L: Umm Umm (Meaning "No No")
V: (Pinnei yen da indha maathiri action kudukurei??)
V: Do u want me to ask the driver to stop the bus?
L: Paravaa illai sir.. Ungalukku edhukku kashtam. Aanaalum neenga en melai romba akkarei eduthukureenga...
V: Yov, unakku enna aanaa enakku enna? Nee en melai vaandhi eduthaa kashta paduradhu yaaru!!???

I got up and saw if any other seat was empty. Seat number 15 was empty. So, I got up and went and sat there.. Bus oru half-hour pochi. Then Hosur came. A fellow got in and came to seat 15.

Fellow : Sir, idhu en seat-u.
V: Neenga 10 la ukaarureengalaa??
F: Illai sir. Neengaley angai ukaarunga!
V: (Damn!)

I went back to that seat. Paatha namma loose maakan enna paathu nakkalaa oru sirippu sirichaan!! Grrr... I thought to myself that once this loose maakaan goes to sleep, endha problem-um irukaadhunnu.. So I decided to wait till this guy went to sleep.. Oru 15 minutes kalichi paatha, that fellow had dozed off... Seri nnu naanum konjam kannu moodunein.. Marubadiyum oru satham.. "urrrr.... Urrrr...." nnu. Endirichi paathu, that fellow koratai uda aarambichitaan.. Adhukku aapuram engai thoonguradhu!?! Full night andha koratai sathathey kettutei ukaandhuttu irundhein!!!

Sivaraathiri!!!

Today, I am a nobody....

Reason: I left my ID card at home....

Vilaivugal: The watchman didnt know who I was.. The attendance machine didnt recognize me... The food meter wouldnt allow me to have lunch... My manager had a tough time making sure I was no "Iyampettai Arivudainambi Kaliyaperumaal Chandiran" ( "U never had a mush??" - he asked)...

So much for the male mangalsutra!!!..

Steps to becoming rich..

* Move ur eyeballs to the right of the screen... If u want to do it in the "Anniyan Style"... Move your eyeballs vigorously in both directions, but make sure it ends at the right side of the monitor screen....

* Search for a small white coloured box, with some junk written inside it... Some people call it Google Adsense..

* Move your mouse pointer over this location.. Desktop users can use your mouse (that small white/black colored thing next to the keyboard) and laptop users can use the touchpad to move the mouse pointer..

*Click on that spot..

Thats it.. I am RICH!!!
