@AceyTech I’m still old-fashioned that way.
@baxiabhishek Yeah. It’s a good indicator to stop until you can’t remember it anymore. Rinse repeat.
You know you’re using your credit card online too much when you don’t need to look at it to recall the number.
You walk slower when you walk without a purpose.
@anomit That’s a joke, right?
Is girl, will flirt. #doesnotapprove
@burnflare I see you came out of the closet. Good for you.
Adding to list of things I hate: People using the phrase “my friend …” as in “Let me tell you my friend …”
@AceyTech Trust me. Heat is better that cold in this cold. … yeah.
I wonder what the fine for not leaving the building during a fire alarm is. Can’t be worse than this cold.
@codelust well played sir.
Just not my day. Now the damn fire alarm goes off. #endoftheword
Ok, so now the whole north is out. #aargh
I don’t get how a disruptions near Yorkshire/NE England could be affecting @o2 services here in Lancaster #wat
Noticed three people promoting nature today. Except for the shoes. I’m the only one who wears Spaldings AFAIK.
@Naina I had something clever to say in the morning. Since I’ve forgotten it now, here’s me telling you that.
Promoting the environment today. Green pullover, blue jeans and dark yellow Spaldings.
MandyPandy32 Go to Google Translate. Set translate from English to Japanese. Type I HATE YOU into the translate box. Then laugh.
Where do we go now?
@AceyTech well, that depends on if you *have* a child …
Putting on fresh socks on wet feet is the third hardest thing to do in life.
codelust Curious: If there were no human beings, will there still be a god in this world?
I feel like dedicating my life to learning. At some point I’ll get a job to earn enough so I can go back to university and take up a course
Remember when wearing your pants backwards was cool? I’m going to do the same to shirts.
Suits are cool. Exhibit A.
One thing I’ve stopped doing with my designs is being adventurous.
If you think I’m angry or upset at what you said, I’m not. You’re not significant enuff to invoke an emotional response. Now speak your mind
@Naina It’s an Amir Khan movie, so I’m going to watch it regardless of how good or bad it is. (I watched Ghajini too :/)
OH: “Are you Hindu?” “No, I’m Sri Lankan.”
@Naina Im getting conflicting reviews from people https://twitter.com/madg…
@AceyTech Also, the Indian accent you hear from ppl in America isn’t how we really speak. They have a messed up and annoying hybrid version.
@AceyTech Nope. There’s a distinct extra ‘h’ sound in there. You might not realise it, but it’s there. We hear it clear as day.
@AceyTech Which is to say we don’t stuff that’s not there. “Lack” of any accent.
@AceyTech If you think about it - take a word such as “Pi”. Indians pronounce it as “pye”. Others: “phye” with the ‘h’ sound. That’s extra.
@xAbhishek Ansal Plaza in South Ext. is a little far for me. The one in DLF is awful. They handed me a card to call for customer service.
The Apple Store - Yesterday was my first time ever inside an Apple Store. A real Apple Store, with a genius… http://tumblr.com/xer1bh…
@xAbhishek Nope, phone. Writing about it now.
I honestly believe the Indian accent is the “lack” of an accent.
Apple customer service pulled through quite nicely. And I *do* have a story to tell. #adaywellspent
Verizon iPhone Ad - Very nice. http://tumblr.com/xer1b7…
Eric Schmidt out at Google CEO. Who would have known. #wow
I’m starting a new trend of wearing blazers on top of sweatshirts.
Hopefully I’ll have a story to tell by the end of the day tomorrow.
“If you were the inventors of Facebook, you would have invented Facebook.”
Spent an hour and a half waiting in queue, but got the room I wanted. Sieg Heil!
They should have coffee scented room fresheners.

@AceyTech Let’s see. I’ll be one of them in a few years.

Lord_Ram Religious: It’s when you believe in the collective imagination of humanity and discard the collective work done by humanity.
Nice way to start the day/term/year. First lecture gets cancelled.
@Naina Not disagreeing with you. Can’t generalise, but more often than not it’s true.
Men of action will never understand men of thought. Men of thought understand everything.

Firefox 4 might be a huge pile of awesome, but it’s still a whole lot of ugly.
Last year when I came back around the same time, this place was absolutely white. Now it’s wet.
I wish Chrome could tell me how I reached a certain page. External app, or some other page, anything. Context is everything.

State of Computer Science In India : http://t.co/BnQ6eJ0 #shorts @codelust @ap00rv
Wew. That was a long one.
@codelust I’m going to write about it. I want to answer @ap00rv as well, so I’ll put it all together in one place. And welcome back!
@ap00rv That deserves a post, not a tweet. You’ll get it soon enough.
@SwaroopH Brad Pitt?

Stop planning. You know it won’t work out anyway.
This is the smallest flight in the history of international flights.

@shwey … and pretty much anyone else.
Calling it a day. Again, the long journey half-way across the world awaits tomorrow. #sigh
@SwaroopH I don’t know why I didn’t reply to this. No, I didn’t mean to sound ‘meh’. The congratulations were genuine.
This day is ending too soon.

Realising and accepting your mistake doesn’t make you a better person. Taking action to fix it, and not repeating it again does.
Watching “Lakshya”. Probably one of the best first halves in a movie I’ve seen. Second half is almost equally bad.
@pdparticle Heh, no I didn’t. That makes more sense.
@pdparticle That, and http://t.co/EDDacya

We should all have hope and look towards the day man realises that the sounds exiting his mouth are mostly complaints and a change occurs.

@flyyoufools The problem is that we take “Karo zyaada ka iraada” a little too seriously. @naina
The problem is that I’m trying to show you the moon, but you’re thinking “But there are so many more stars”.

There are two ways of looking at it: “He’s better” or “I suck”. Which one has a higher chance of making you want to improve?
@AceyTech Trust me. Hate means there’s still a connection there, some emotion involved. They associate things to you.
Indifference OTOH ..
The opposite of love isn’t hate. It’s indifference.
Dad has got me out of putting ketchup on my food. Everything tastes so much better this way.
There is much whine in here.

Hmm. I’m glad they changed how Twitter for Mac looks. Tweetie was kinda ugly. This is a *lot* better.
The correct answer to every question ever asked: Depends.
No new year’s day, to celebrate. No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away …
@inkv You can type out a tweet with  -; without the hyphen. Non-breaking space. Twitter accepts it.
@inkv Twitter does allow blank tweets, if you know how to do it.
That damn Tata Docomo melody is stuck in my head.
The world is one big echo chamber.
