Peace.

The One is an evil man. The One didn't go to Moonface's birthday. And The One didn't let me go as well. How is that possible? Are we the same entity? Alas for you readers, we're not. We are two separate entities with separate emotions and thinking processes. If that's not good enough, we even sleep at different times. On the other hand, The One didn't wake me up in the morning and I missed the celebrations.


That's not all. As far as the tradition of calling up people at 12am on their birthdays go, The One kept me occupied with Superman/Batman: Public Enemies movie so after which I dozed off and missed the whole thing. And on top of that, The One used my phone and texted her a 'Hey happy birthday'. Talk about emotions and sensitivities.


So I missed the cake. But what The One assured me compensation: peace. I had quite the peaceful morning, a sleepy/studying session of an afternoon and a brilliant evening. What makes the evening so brilliant? IPL and Science would very well be the answers.


IPL has had it's fair share of criticism. But you cannot deny that it is pure entertainment. A non-cricketing fan would be an instant viewer. AND SCIENCE. I JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF SCIENCE! rather, I can't get enough of Physics. And why I can't get enough of it? Because it's limitless and complex. The complexity is what makes me fap to it.



And if you've been following the Indian news, you would've come across the name of Nirmal Baba. He is the con of a preacher who gives the people the vaguest of solutions to their problems and has been in the dock for cheating his followers and hoarding vast amounts of money.
Take some food for thought ( It's pun time!)

Random person: My wife and I have been married for the past two years and we haven't conceived as of yet though we've been trying. (The One laughed hard at the latter part.) What do I do?
Nirmal Baba
: Eat 4 samosas with green chutney and also give samosas to 4 of your neighbours with the smae chutney. you'll soon have a child.

If that doesn't make you go 'dafaq?', you should get yourself checked or stop following the baba. What have you been smoking, Nirmal?

Now you wonder why I would jump from one discussion to the other? Here's the connection.
Science is based on facts, Nirmal Baba's views are based on imagination of obscurity. In the modern world, where one believes what one sees, one also believes in the baba's methodology And they also believe in religion. Idol worshiping has been there for ages and I'm okay with it, but the limits one believes in the supernatural is appalling to say the least.
For The One and I,  Science is our religion and we have a little fewer gods than Hinduism. About 329 999 980 less.

And we have our fair share of pick up lines. If you get picked up, you're my type. If you don't, you may still be my type and I'll be condescending and a little bit abashed.

Another photo I came across that made me worship my religion even more:

Neil deGrasse Tyson, my man. You're brilliant. And if you ever read this, I do not blame you for the Pluto Incident.

In other news, Liverpool FC are now in the finals of the FA Cup, right on the eve of the Hillsborough Incident. JFT96.
