When women do not appreciate multiple lovers...
Posted by Script Writer | Category [ Writing ]Comments (30) | Trackbacks (0)
It is generally believed that bloggers either have no jobs or that they have overpaid jobs which demand nothing more of their time than the cursory emailing. The belief is not misplaced.
Look at me. What do I do each day at work? Nothing really. It isn't even that my job pays me a lot of money. It is just that I have figured out the essence of the truth - the work put in should be directly commensurate with the remuneration. So I choose to make my own time at my workplace and post in these hallowed corridors.
Truth be told, this post has not been interesting thus far. And there are indications that it is not going to get any better. You might even be tempted to click on the close button in your browser's tab bar or close the browser window if you choose to live in the dark ages of tabless browsing. But that would leave you feeling hopelessly small and insignificant. It would make you into one of those people who don't have it in them to go through a lousy blog post.
That is swell, by the way, if you are me. I have always prided myself on my innate ability to shirk work of any kind, to simply give up when the mountain is too tall or the river is too deep, the latter being of special importance since I take to the water like a fish takes to air. Human beings were never meant to swim. We built ships to help us do that. Why do some of us still continue with the redundant activity and even win gold medals in the process? Of course, they do get busted for marijuana which tells us that these dope heads are as sane as amateur 'aviators' with strap-on wings.
Today not being All Fools' Day, I was almost tempted to make a non-existent post. For some reason it appears that technology does not allow us to create something that does not exist. Well, if only that applied to all the rhetoric around us. It should at least apply to the blog summary page of this site that lists post-less blogs in the 'Latest Posts' column. Apparently technology is not consistent everywhere, which is a reflection of the times we live in. Only women who do not like 'predictability' in their men can appreciate this. However, the same women would not appreciate inconsistency in the choice of their man's lovers.

When you say nothing at all....

How about women appreciating the art of multiplying lovers in corridors or something equally bizarre and insane? Why oh why is this post about nothing and everything?
16 Apr 2009, 3:55pm
Cherry Khan, eh? Reminds me of Changez Khan or some other ghastly Mongol warlord :). Then again, your bags do get all bloody with ketchup.
Multiplying lovers in corridors? I am not quite sure I catch your drift. And, yes, my posts are usually about nothing. The wise among us have learnt to accept it.
16 Apr 2009, 4:31pm
Isn't unpredictability a good thing? And shouldn't it be "their mens'lovers" rathers than "their man's lovers"...considering we're talking about multiple options here :):) Unpredictability has very little to do with consistency or promiscuity as behavior traits, incidentally. In fact, I'd think someone who started an entire post on Multiple Lovers(where everything but the last two lines is one multiple lovers)is being highly unpredictable. Also inconsistent, by default.Nevermind, we're wise enough to accept it.
16 Apr 2009, 5:55pm
Nobody questions my grammar or my intent on this blog. When they do, they get socked.
How can it be 'their men's lovers' when women make such hue and cry over not being the promiscuous gender?
16 Apr 2009, 6:45pm
It has very little to do with what women think about being called promiscuous. It is about a blog that first cons me into visiting it and then throws up grammatical errors that seem like moral slurs on my entire kind.
16 Apr 2009, 11:13pm
I am not a distant relative of Genghis. But yes, I do bloody my bags with ketchup. As for the art of multiplying lovers, well, I meant something like a woman is such a sensual being that she doesn't even have to try to get multiple lovers and how much she DOES appreciate multiple lovers... something relevant.
Jaiwantika, you feisty person, well said. :D
17 Apr 2009, 11:36am
Women are creatures of beauty and sensuality.It is but natural that they will attract multiple lovers, or the attention of many men. Men on the other hand,are seriously lucky if they can summon their "multiple lovers" into existence. Point two, if you are in a relationship with a woman, even if you are Apollo himself,she deserves your utmost loyalty, so there's no debate on 'predictability' and 'consistency' there.Third, I thought you sounded so MCPish when you implied that only men have the right to multiple lovers and women are supposed to mope around being loyal to their master's shoes.
And Cherie, thanks for the support, girl.:D You did great too!

I thought "this is an error-free grammar zone" :). Or maybe Scriptwriter is not able to take it that he's been caught with an error of grammar, the only thing he doesn't absolve himself of responsibility for on his blog :)
17 Apr 2009, 1:00pm
In which case, you will agree that we require a change of sorts. He can't go about calling his zone error free. Once that's done,I'm sure the chances of his being mistaken for being an MCP will reduce greatly.
17 Apr 2009, 5:37pm
Oh no Jaiwantika! I am an absolute MCP. I take pride in it, being as it is that we are a diminishing breed indeed.
And no, prince of ayodhya (Would the acronym 'POA' suffice when I address you the next time?). There was no grammatical error made. Nor was the error factual. I simply took women at face value when it came to being not promiscuous. That does not imply I am in any way stating that women are not allowed multiple lovers.
And yes, my blogs usually con people into visiting. I have made it into quite an art form. The best among all random trespassers survive it and make repeat visits.
Cherrie (I hope we are on a first name basis and I do not have to add the salutation 'Miss' when addressing you.), you are right. A woman does not have to try to get multiple lovers. She just has to be a woman. Yet, it amazes me how many of them do not take the offer up.
17 Apr 2009, 8:30pm
So you'd rather be an MCP than be sensitive to change? That's strange.
Mr. Script Writer,I'm sure you know on some level that MCPs aren't macho men coz if a guy is chauvnistic and pessimistic about a poor girl trying to make her way ahead in this hard world then he is truly a petty, insecure wimp/chimp.
I don't know how you've survived taking ppl at face value for so long, but maybe that was because all these ppl were women and your naivete and vulnerability really appealed to their protective, maternal instincts.
Incidentally, Con-art must be nice but I fail to understand what else is there to survive about it..also,WHY trauma would demand repeat visits.
17 Apr 2009, 8:58pm
Obviously the con-art is working on you, Jaiwantika. You can't help but come back and comment. Such trauma you are enduring. Nevermind if you don't really have a leg to stand on, we will forgive you for all the stuff you're doing on behalf of all womankind. All by yourself too. All for the abla naari. I applaud your efforts.

women are overrated
17 Apr 2009, 9:00pm
I am not sure whether Jaiwantika's comment was meant to inspire or offend. It did neither, actually. But it pleased me plenty to have Aran comment right after!
17 Apr 2009, 9:01pm
the horny janitor, beware. The claws will be out now.
17 Apr 2009, 9:16pm
I was typing something, but Aran destroyed the locus standi of my entire post by sneaking hers in a few minutes earlier. Whoever I had a difference with seems like an angel now.
Don't mind Aran, Jaiwantika. She guards this blog from the scum of the universe - i. e. people whose thinking she differs with, or, actually, people who even think. Use her as a benchmark, and you'll always feel good about yourself.
17 Apr 2009, 9:22pm
Oh sorry to rain on your parade, Shakeela. I never knew I could wipe out entire comments of yours. This is a gift. :)
And watch out, your hate's showing.
17 Apr 2009, 9:29pm
You show many gifts, Aran - and I don't think we've seen the tip of the iceberg yet. And as for my hate showing, it'll be a while nevertheless before I hit your haloed, rarefied levels, such as are demonstrated by a comment in this very post.
17 Apr 2009, 10:24pm
Aran, honestly, all this for what?I'm basically not into cat fights, considering them too unevolved, but I do think that you are overreacting.You sound like a really nice person,and so does Shakeela,So I'd really like you to know that I'm not trying to kill the Script Writer, ok? And I thought it was awesome the way you stood up for him (this is the sort of protective maternal instinct I meant)but let him fight his own battles,ok?I totally respect your place in all this and thanks for the moral support.
@shakeela:Thanks, girl.It's nice to get support when one is being picked on for no fault committed.I'm still wondering WHAT I did.
17 Apr 2009, 11:47pm
SW, your grammar might be fabulous but you sure do like to add an extra r to people's name. :) Were you confused between Cherry and Cherie?
tsk tsk :)
P.S. Yes, you may call me Cherie
18 Apr 2009, 8:22am
Don't mind the women, ScriptWriter. We all men know how women tend to bond in times of adversity, it's called the 'sister effect' by Roland Glouco,the famous sociologist.Women can never be trusted.
I, personally was greatly drawn to you because of your desire to assert that you will STILL be an MCP.I understood immediately that it does not mean that you are insensitive...it only means that you are insensitive to women...and only a man can understand that sentiment with all his depth.
18 Apr 2009, 3:42pm
Oh no Cherie. The extra 'r' was out of excessive love. Although you have asked me to drop it, the love is not going to lessen :).
Prince Love, you like many others who have visited this space, have never comprehended the underlying currents of irreverence in this space. Let's just leave it at that.
18 Apr 2009, 4:57pm
You're welcome, Jaiwantika. And your response is truly admirable. It's not everyday that one comes across a person who can see the good in even someone who's launched an unprovoked and inexplicably vitriolic attack against her.
18 Apr 2009, 10:06pm
Shakeela, you give me too much credit. My first two comments on this post were merely amused jabs - the first at Scripto and the next at Jaiwantika. The one in response to you was less amused and more jabby I suppose because I don't have much patience for self-righteous indignation or some misplaced superhero complex. Nevertheless, I wouldn't describe any of my comments here as "an unprovoked and inexplicably vitriolic attack", definitely not the one you are referring to. Please don't fan the fires.
Jaiwantika,
1. Thanks for the response. I don't like cat fights either. You stopped me short by actually naming this a cat fight, which it isn't really. I am not calling names and pulling hair, seriously.
2. My instincts for Scripto have nothing to do with maternity, believe me.
3. I responded to you in the first instance not because I wanted to defend Scripto, but because you were responding to his post without any context. That's what I have a problem with. Not with you personally.
18 Apr 2009, 10:51pm
@Aran: You mean cat fights are about calling names and pulling hair? Since when? The only people who think catfights are about those are a few disillusioned males who watch the wrong films.Ur the first intelligent woman I've met who seems to think that way too.Sweetheart, nevermind all that. Let's put it this way.I like talking. I like talking about things I like with people I like,and my presence in their vicinity often shows my appreciation for their existence.You seem to like licking such people's shoes clean while I'm talking to them.As long as you don't make too much of a noise while ur going about it,I'm sure nobody could care less. Meanwhile,try and keep in mind that your personal motives in all this are so not part of the reason I chose to comment on this blog.So we could just get back to being cordial from a distance.
@Shakeela: Thanks for the compliment, Shakeela.For the record,yes,I believe being a nice girl is the nicest thing in the world and I'm quite proud of being one.I am a blind idealist, so feminism appeals to me.And it disgusts me when women backstab their own kind.If loyalty(to a cause,to the world, or as a behavior trait) isn't central to a person's being, what is?
@Scriptwriter- who would've thought you'd dig up this can of worms:)anyway, happy fishing !Hope you succeed in catching some meaning.Ur posts could use it.
19 Apr 2009, 5:42am
Whoa. Licking shoes clean, etc. Me, intelligent woman, huh? Yeah. Distance is fine.
You should see a couple of earlier posts of Scripto if you think this one was bad. I'll link -

Have fun.
19 Apr 2009, 10:00am
Aran, looks like "you can't help but come back and comment." Alas, how the high priestess has fallen. And accusing *me* of "self-righteous indignation or some misplaced superhero complex" after how *you* butted in here in the first place :).
Anyway, it's high time you sought professional help on your definitions of "harmless comments" and "amused jabs".
19 Apr 2009, 5:46pm
You're embarrassing yourself.
