Have you a got such a text message before in your inbox …
“This is Drishti Ganpati.send this to 10 people & and you will have good luck all your life. You will get what u want. If ignored, then there is going to be 7yrs of problem. This is definitely NOT A JOKE... do give it a try!"
I have got several mails like that but it blows mind off when I get it as a text message…..If it’s not a drishti Ganpati then it’s sai baba or somebody else. It’s not that I am an atheist or anything…but this is surely no way of showing your religious side….
And the funny thing is that some of them will also add a "P.S" at the end of the message. ”Sorry I got sent this message and hence I am sending this to you” ..Arre? Wtf? When somebody messages this it quite clearly shows that person’s fear…..His fear of those 7 years of problem which he thinks will happen to him/her if he doesn’t send it to those many people. If everything was so easy in life then everybody in this world would have become an Anil Ambani by now. Don't cha Think?

May be I am reacting too much here.It could be a ploy to finish one’s phone balance you never know. But it’s damn irritating.
What do I do when I get such a message?
Oh! I conveniently delete it immediately from my inbox. I make my own luck. Period.
P.S: I am reading a book called “If God was a banker” by Ravi Subramanian and I found this line from the book very intriguing. I hadn’t heard or read it before. It read
“I have stuck my neck out on this and believe me when I say this – I do not like my neck tickled.” :D

LOL@Chriz!!! :D :D
ReplyDeleteSeriously mayn!! I mean, these messages make you wanna puke on your own mobile!! crsly!!
Pata hai kya, last nite I was wondering about the very same thing..about WHO THE HELL starts the "chain"??!! And you know what I came up with, what if all these network subscribers..Airtel, Vodafone et al..they only start it so that it goes on and on and on..and everyone's happy!
But, last night, it was my darling lil sista, my cousin who messaged me and since it's impossible for me to even think about hating her..I thought, well, maybe I should think about it this way, Each one to one's own! I mean, if someone does get all superstitious about it..I think I should respect the sentiment! :) Nai??
