Some more Mokkais…

Ladder...
One day I was traveling from Coimbatore to Bangalore, I boarded the train and as usual it was an UB ticket. People were crossing here n there to settle down in their berths, so I just thought I wud better wait for makkal to settle down before climbing up to my berth. I kept waiting near my berth for a while, and there came this gentleman of the century... he looked at me as if I am a kid who got lost in some thiruvizha and said

"Excuse me..."

I said, "Yes..."

"You know Tamil?"

"Hmm, yeah" (manasukkulla: Coimbatore la vandhuttu ennadaa kelvi idhu?)

"Indha ladder mela kaala vachu...appram upper berthukku yeranum!!!"

I was like what!!! I didn't know how to react only. I just gave him a shocked look and said, "Yeah..." (manasukkulla: Dei!!! naan evlo varushamaa trainla vandhuttu irukken? ivlo neram un thala mela kaala vachu yerlaamnu wait pannittu irukkennaa ninache?)


One other sleepy afternoon at office...

My team mate asked me, "Divya, Where is this aryabhatta?"

"What? Why do u want to know?"

"Hey, tell me no? Where s aryabhatta???"

I gave a very clever reply, "Aryabhatta...It’s a satellite, so where will it be? It'll be in space only"

She cast one stunned look and said, "Divya, what happened? I am asking you about the conference room ARYABHATTAAAA"

No need to say how I felt after that :-)
