GOOF

ghar office orkut facebook...hence classifying people who are "boring"..and dont usually like to go out and have fun..people who do "orkut programming"(venkat's terminology) and are apparently update their facebook status more than they update their life..i cannot help it but say.. me and my friend were talking about post marriage life the other day..and how she fears being with someone who is "GOOF"... ha ha.. its a cool word.. i like it...its not goofy..its goof..anyways..why im talking about goof here is to see the other side..the good side of goof.. what is exactly wrong with being at home..every weekend..and spending time online..doing things that we usually do not do at work..usually..mind it!! .. anyways.. i have access to all the goof sites online..so i dont care.. i can live without goofing on weekends and yes, not updating what im doing with my life on fb..anyways..goof is not wrong for somebody who has not many friends around..sure you have your wife to take care of..and to "entertain" but then why not..why cant he go online and touch base with friends he could not talk all week..month..year..you never know..it would be nice to chat with somebody in India..or somebody with whom you spent a lot of time with in yesteryears...also..i dont really understand the concept of "going out" every weekend.. i personally do like going out on weekends and staying away from the 15' screen i stare at everyday when i work..but why do i have to go out.. i wanna sleep the whole day..watch a nice movie and just stay indoors..i wont call that goofing.. goofing would be more about doing things as you.. borrowing similar terminology from my previous posts..its again about us.. goof..but goof as "us".. no that does not mean you being online from you login and she doing the same..but showing pictures of friends you havent met..talking to people online.. i dont want to be all diplomatic about it..but it comes back to balancing the goof factor with your life..its about how much time you spend online..rather how much of your brain you use thinking about things that no longer matter to you..ah yes, about people who take social networks very seriously..guys..get a life !!.. funny thing..the other day..as usual.. i left a sarcastic..yet funny comment on my friend's photo album..and woah did she freak out..i have no idea why..but she was pretty upset by the whole comment thing.. it was one of those times when i had to climb up the "intelligence ladder"..get up to her level..and apologize.. i still dont know why i did it..but then.. like i said..it was up the ladder.. and i usually dont climb it..nevertheless.. i dont mind it.. we are friends and things do happen..getting back to goof..let me think more about it.. how about if he thinks you are too hyper for him..and playing tennis on a hot summer day would be boring..tennis..aaaah.. last week i finally hit a couple of backhand shots like mr federer..well pretty close..so..what if he does like playing tennis..or some other adventure but on a perfect day..not much of the pack-your-bags-and-go kinds..thats not wrong..he wants to do it..just not everytime..another good reason..would be work..poor guy..he's slogged through the week..his job makes him drive 50kms a day..he likes it..he does it..but he would not want to do it the whole week..no driving..sit at home..and goof..then again..we dont really have something like that every week..how much hard i try to justify goofing every weekend i must say.. it is pretty tough.. i mean not if you are the "send friend request" type.. ha ha.. i lobej it.. "i wants to do fransift with ya.. this is mah.. mee and mahsalf" , " i thinks you look pretty in green..you are the queen..mausam hai rangeen..be mah frand..dont be mean" wah wah.. i am good at it.. mujhe bhi karna chahiye.. me..me has graduated in life..and me knows what to do on weekends..and woohoo..now that hatwal saab hai got the TT table for us..home is where the tt table is.. oh, there it is..another reason to stay home.. how about playing some TT..is that not a sport..cant we just play(and not update that on FB)..anyways..i blog.. i say..i think..but you dont know until you do it..im not married yet..and i am pretty confident that i wont marry someone who is a goof..believe me.. i know..i have a brain..i dont use it much..i conserve it for the big decisions in life..and this one..would be a biggie..i would add to that..goof would be a reflection of you.. ask yourself..are you a GOOF ?..my answer... NO.. jai shri ram
