Putting all that aside, Let me cut straight to the people. Us Indians I tell you, we are such a twisted bunch of people. Drama is something which is innate and part of our daily lives.
Confused? Let me explain.
Everyone around the world have Monday morning blues but in India we take it to a whole new level.. we have successfully managed to turn it into Monday morning rage. Say you are heading to work on your bike in the morning and to your luck you woke up late, I bet there is a traffic jam waiting to happen for you complete with a narrow road, a huge lorry and angry auto rickshaw guys with loud horns and bad driving skills. Voila! Monday morning rage..
Speaking of rickshaw guys, they're a bigger menace here than Rabies and AIDS put together!! They are the self proclaimed high priests of transportation.. You just can't argue with 'em. They will NEVER travel to the places you want to go to. If they do, they will ALWAYS charge you an exorbitant fare or if they switch on their meter you are BOUND hear him say "Saar, 20 rupees extra on meter" sooner or later. Some poor souls use auto rickshaws as their daily mode of transport, battling everyday with these insensitive excuses for human beings.
For some damn reason these auto guys really fascinate me..so much that my phone charm is a tiny colorful auto :P Undoubtedly they're a big part of our crazy lifestyle. As much as I don't want to say this, with their loud mouths and quirky slogans on the back of their machines they complete India.
And its not just them.. each and every person in the country has a special attribute which makes them unique. An Indian aunty will always try her best to arrange your marriage with a geeky NRI, grandparents will always start their conversation with the words "hamare zamane mein...", You are bound to see kids saying phrases like "Green green bath room clean" or "Shame shame puppy shame!!". Men will always love their facial hair and women will always have a strange obsession about the color of their face.
Best part is, we are not apologetic about our behavior. There is an order in our dis functionality and that's the beauty of it.. Even if India becomes a super power in the future, I bet you'll still find people being more petrified of black cats running across the street coz we are like this only :)
