WEEKLY EMAIL BLAST #8

What up, peep ?     

I suck at street slang. I won’t start with such an introduction again. Promise. Pinky Promise. And by the way, my right hand pinky has a titanium insert, so there’s no way I break a pinky promise.      

It is rare for me to relate myself to a character from a Bollywood movie. But that changed when I saw Bhaskor Bannerji from Piku. Piku is a great movie but what intrigued me was that the Bengali geezer Bhaskor was pretty much ME. Think I’m kidding? Here : Constant rants about Low IQ, absolutely critical of art and intellect, kinda insensitive, and speaks with no regard of social norms. Am I describing me or old BB ? You can’t tell cause we’re both at least similar if not the same. I don’t wanna grow that old. But now I’m sure I’m gonna be alive till my late sixties. And now that I’m talking about his character, I would like to add that my Digestive tract is great and my Colon loves me. That’s a difference but I feel you’d be fine if I hadn’t had mentioned that.       

If you haven’t seen Piku, the last paragraph would’ve been a little cloudy for you. Now that I have opened the Pandora’s Box called Bollywood, I’m gonna say that Bollywood isn’t all bad, but it sure is crappy. There are some really good actors and then there are pure shitpunks who are like jail proof ( talk about being subtle ). There are no scripts, no plots but there sure is a women-objectifying song and dance sequence. Still, morons insist on going to movies without reading a single critic’s review.      

Hey make sure you don’t miss Doctor Who on Fox FX tonight at nine. Finally. Why? ‘CAUSE IT’S DOCTOR WHO. Again, people who knowingly ignore such great shows have a low IQ and no sense of good and bad.      

‘Tis, mate was Weekly Email Blast, Email 8 (courtesy pop culture). Happy Holidays !!!
