Here's your complimentary PFB. *Hands over bunny* His name is Bunny. Um. *Looks shifty*
And now the real reason why you're reading this: Here's a fervent plea to you, blog visitor person: Chrome or Firefox, please, I beseech you on bended knee! Not IE or some such cloaked stranger who waits in the shadows on rainy nights to spring a drunken alignment or a misunderstood font on my wee little blog. If my blog looks slurred and two pegs into a good night to you, then it's high time you switched browsers (or spectacles, you never know).
Yes, I am aware I'm limiting the (non-existent) reach of my blog by saying "Die, IE, DIE!" but I'm too loyal a procrastinator to make my code friendly to all browsers. Alas. And, oh, if you are a non-Foxer or an anti-Chromer, you are welcome, of course. Just be aware that any weird font and bizarre layout elements are caused by the resident ghoul of inept code—a very melancholy spirit that, so be kind to it. Feed it deceased rodents, if you have any handy.
Ah, now that you've been suitably warned, here, drink some tea and shuffle on to the posts! (Happy sounds of tea-drinking and shuffling-on heard.)

Just wondering...



This universal desire to be accepted and loved for what one is, does it have any evolutionary significance? Is it driven by evolutionary motive?

  1. You know the first ever joke? I mean, the first, first ever joke ever.

    "Evolution of man."

    When you actually look at it, men never really evolved. Inside every man resides a very poignant need to revert back to his neanderthal ways which gets accentuated when there is a football/cricket match on and there are more of his kind and there is a couch and there is beer and pizza.

    My only point is, the unevolved woman accepted the man for his neanderthal self. And so does the evolved woman. I don't think it has anything to do with evolution though.

  4. i think this entire concept of love/acceptance is instinctive and not evolutionary... like possessiveness, anger,,jealousy..
    there would be no certain tipping point in evolution after which humans started emoting in a certain way.. dont u think so, nandu/karthik/jayanth?

    ofcourse, our grandpa adam was barbaric, dint sing love songs like b.adams.. but then he would have been equally protective of his kids, equally desired his wives and so forth..

    so i'd say we should look at self than at the trend :-)

    but then again, we cant deny that the male is getting weaker, soppier and softier post karan johar entry into Indian cinema. :(
