Results

Alright it is time to reveal the answers to the quiz. By the by you all sucked big time. Of course i appreciate those who took the time to take this lame quiz. To everyone else katti.

1. what former pet did i accidentally eat?

that would be my duck. i had made friends with it and then one day they cooked it. they being my family. apparently the whole point of bringing it home was to fatten it and eventually eat it but see no one had told me. it was my friend. sob.

2. what tv show do celebrities have to appear on in order for me to fall in love with them?

rendezvous with simi aunty. lets see, i fell in love with abhishek bachchan, ustad amjad ali khan's younger son, farhan akhtar....

3. where did i learn the gayatri mantra?

from watching kyunki saas. the sad part is i'm not kidding.

4. how many times have i been pulled over? bonus question [how many times has this lead to me getting a ticket?]

i've been pulled over only 4 times and gotten a ticket only twice. the truth is i am very very lucky to still have a driving permit. it's all about training your eye. a pro can spot a cop car miles away. a pro can make the chapstick, cellphone and cd carrier instantly disappear whilst slowing down a good twenty miles or so before the cop even notices said pro. however if you do get pulled over it is good to remain smiley and nod at appropriate moments. if the cop wants to tell you a story of his desi friend whose wonderful wedding he attended pretend to enjoy the story and giggle and clap. okay dont clap. but giggle. and nod. and smile.

5. name the only two things i can cook

karipatta chicken and pineapple souffle.

6. what do the creepy paintings in my house that occasionally switch places depict?

they're the before and after paintings of the afghan girl on the cover of national geographic magazine and last winter when i was living by myself i noticed that they would switch places with each other so naturally i was worried. wouldn't you be? oh also they like to stare.

7. a fake version of this product can be purchased in shivaji nagar under the name 'iski maaki'. what is the name of the original product?

originally four, later changed to five bags of boulder potato chips. you can watch videos of how the stapler was tortured here.

B got part of her shirt stuck in the shredder and screamed and yelled because she thought it was going to swallow her. it was the funniest eight seconds of my life.

19. true of false. rohan kurien is a terrible kisser.

hmm this is a tough one. our only source is a friend of his ex who claims the ex told her that she had to teach him how to kiss. now this ex is someone we disliked when we were two. we went to the same preschool and i used to make fun of her and she had gone home and told mommy dearest who in turn taught her to say something mean back and so she did. unimaginative bitch!

Special mentions:

Bikerdodanna for this observation: 9. Odd man out: Ambareesha, cos he's the only person who can run sideways down 28 flights of stairs. Thank you, that image has been stuck in my mind ever since.

Soupie: 9.Rebel IsTaar Ambreesh Row 1, Column 3 and Row3 column 3 the father of my unborn child.
She didn't mention said future child's name so i will - Yamraj Singh!

Ramsu: 9. Ajit Agarkar. Only one among the bunch who never, EVER knew how to play cricket. CORREKT i say! Why did you delete your comment?

Congratulations to 'the bride' who was the only person who got number 16 right. Soupie/Kb even you two got that one wrong. I cant blame u though. It's quite possible my dad could've said something like that.

Mr. Mandu also got this one right. But he got everything right. Ladies and gentleman i present to you the winner of this quiz - Mr. Mandu. Yay!!!

The second prize goes to kb! She promised free clothes and one does not want to piss off such a talented designer.

Ramsu said...

I have this nasty habit of clicking on random links while on the phone. I drive more safely than I surf when I'm on the phone.

Anyway, the upshot of it was that I ended up deleting my comment and confirming it even before I knew what I was doing. Wondered if I should re-enter it, then decided what the heck.

You really learnt the gayatri mantra from Kyunki? Sheesh! And here I thought I was being funny by guessing Himes-bhai :-)
