Normal with an AB.....


I was just wondering that at times...Let me be frank here, Many times I mean I do tend to do things which are kind of not normal. But then again I started thinking that everything in this world is relative. Only if I do things that I think are not normal doesnt mean that I am crazy, or the fact that they are not normal.
So I decided to ask you all a few questions and then see about it.

Here are a few questions. Please answer them If u consider them sane.

1. Just to get a feel of the movies like 300 or Sincity (I mean the screen they are shot on...the gloomy feeling it gives), you wear sunglasses and ride you bike at 120 kmph at Night?

2. How Long have you chewed a single chewing gum?

3. How long have you sat in CCD/Barista/Any cafe doing and saying Nothing at all?

4. Travelled 600 kms in a day, everyday of your final exam ie 6?

5. Saw a C grade movie by booking the tickets on phone and asking them If its housefull (and you are all alone in the hall)?

6. Rode your bike before your gal has sat on it ?( I mean she is putting her leg ...its still in air and u move the bike..)

7. You turn on the key on your lock while you are putting it on your gate and when you leave the lock from your hand it falls down.....

That will be it. Its already got too much I guess.

So let us see where I stand..Normal....Ab - Normal.....Sub-Ab Normal.......

hhmmm...there are some interesting questions...though I do not think that any of these questions sound abnormal normal to me?? Lets just do this and decide in the end ;)

1) I do not have a bike...but if I did, I would have surely done that.Infact now that you have given me that idea, I will definitely try it...I love to do things that give me a feel of the movie I have really liked. Well I often start enacting that character in front of my mirror.....everybody does that...isnt it?

2) 9 hours...yes was in office for that long wiothout a break!!

3) 7 bloody hours!! My bottoms began to hurt!! I wanted to doze off and after that day I did not go to Barista for the next 3 months atleast!! And yeah...my dumb cousin had to meet her boyfriend before leaving the country...so could not really escape from that situation..huh...

4) now that is one question where I can say ...whoa!! NEVER!!

5) Well yes..I have done that..and even dragged this whole big joint family of mine...but mind you the hall was not empty..it was a house full show in a bad theatre...the movie...well...'aamdani atthanni kharcha rupaiya'..(alright I am embarassed now!!)

6) Damn..again.. I do not have a bike and definitely not a girl friend...but I am sure it will be some sight worth watching...have seen alot of uncles doing that to their wives tho :P

7) So many times!!

Feeling any normal?? I still do not feel abnormal...am I suppose to??

Macabreday said...

haa.. now what is normal to you does not have to be normal to someone else.. u can define what is normal on ur own...but then again...just because u feel something is normal, dosent mean that it is.

Irreversibly Screwed said...

ur right about everything being relative...

1. that sounds like awesome fun!!..

2. i once dozed off while having a chewing gum.. and it was still in my mouth when i woke up.. strange i know...

3. i do that when i feel the need for being away from the world.. but i usually take my ipod along..

4. WOW... that sounds incredible!!..

5. Never!!.. though ive seen lots of bad movies but never asked if a particular movie was houseful or not..

6. that would be a sight to see..

7. used to happen all the time when i was in the hostel... now i dont have a gate to lock... :(


dont worry... ur not that far gone!!.. or maybe im just further down the road to realize... like u said.. its all relative!!

hmm, interesting facts..
I know to ride a bike but then havent ride on that particular speed bcoz i havent been allowed..but i will love to do it anytime definetly...

And ya doing things diffeently doesnt mean that you are abnormal..
Keep doing experiments and keep enjoying life...

Princess Banter said...

You're so right -- everything is relative. The thing is, to what? I have been chewing gum longer than ever now... only cuz I live in the only country in the world where it is banned. Hence, it has become a precious commodity for me... having to recruit friends to send me a box every month haha!

Devil Mood said...

I'm just a little concerned for your gal ;)
...apart from that, you're the king of your wishes. The chewing gum would have to be really high-quality to make me chew it extra-time ;)

bhupinder said...

normality is just a PERCEPTION ;)

oye i think we should exchange links...

Cuckoo said...

Hmmmm.. Interesting questions ;)

Winged Fantasy said...

hmmmm my observations:
1) adventure... not too bad
2) thats ok... habbit? or nervousness?
3) U fell in love?
4) bet you wanted to fall ill to avoid the exams... come on admit it. ;-)
5) frustration/ routine life
6) there! you made a boo boo. :-)
7) absent minded... be careful next time.

So you see I didnt have to use words like mad or crazy... so u are still not there as yet ;-)

1. I drive car sometimes at 90mph (almost 140kmph), and I feel great. Sometimes I feel great driving at 45mph constant.

2. When I used to, until my jaws hurt.

3. I can sit for ever in Starbucks, saying nothing, doing nothing. But I have sat only half an hour.

4. I drive all day long, and sometimes all night long to reach home..... that can be like 100+ miles....

5. =)) nope no C grade movie in theatre.. am a lady...

6. I have done that with my ex bf.... we used to ride on my Spirit bike :p

JPK said...

So very true, I am sure you are not intrested in my answers, so i let me not bore you with them. However, i happened to write something like this a long time back on my blog(one of my first posts), It was titled sanity and insanity. I thought it might intrest you..

Cheers,

Jude

Zee said...

just on number 5..........hahahahahaha.......hilarious!! esp since it HAS to have happened to all of us!!

Hermis said...

I cant really say I've done all these things...But yes waitin for some1 in a coffeeshop I had done...I was waiting for my best friend..and she was late as usually...and sitting there in a crowded place I felt really dumb...since I was returning from college ..I took out my Abnormal psychology book and started going thru' it as if I'm the most intelligent person on earth and others are so inferior in front of me intellectual.One thing I cud achieve by doing that was people thought I must be a budding psychologist and I can understand what's going on in their mind and they all started luking at me with susupicious glances!

Aditi said...

okkk aman,, first of all, i'm very happy to see a new post... but u think a lot before posting something new.. its gud..

now about posting.. I've felt one incident.. my brother, he booked a C grade film, the name I don;t remeber, it was Viju Shah's film.. exactly what you said, has happened, he paid black for that movie tickets in advance and when we reached hall, it was half empty.. and further the movie was so rubbish, we had to spend more for aspirin then :)

Ab said...

Hey none of these........

And yet they say Im kind of the wierdest person theyve seen :D

Anonymous said...

point 6 is good .. done that .. :D

point 1 .. came close to doing it .. but someone pointed out the putting on sunglasses makes me look blind .. and that was the end of it :)

single chewing gum .. max for a 20 over cricket match while fielding .. didn't have anything else to do .. i was put on third man region with 3 slips .. the ball never came to me :)

Unknown said...

one man's trash is another's treasure... what one sees as normal others may see as abnormal.

1.this is not normal. Its plain everyday USUAL stuff. Though I would not recommend to go so fast on bikes. There is a fine line between undertaking risks and pure stupidity.

2. Many many hours, depends on the gum.

3. 5 hours tops. Then I had to leave. They put on a himesh reshamiya album.

4.this is not a sane question nor an insane question. It shows that the person who asked this deserves pity.

5. more pity.

6. hahahaha...hahahaha...hahahaha. I need a picture of this.

7.shows you know nothing about locks. do not buy a safe. Put all your money in banks.

you stand wherever your feet wish to stand. Period.

diyadear said...

hey no 7 has hap to me too :)
i think ur sub normal he he

Sujoy Bhattacharjee said...

first the pic...looks like some sketch out of a stephen king work.
and about the supposedly crazy stuff...well they are just ways to vent out the...the...whatever.
And it is better if one is a bit crazy or AB-normal if you please....heard of a preacher in New England who lived till 102 and every night for 75 years preached to his sheeps at 2 o'clock in the night?

1) if at all i manage to sneak out my dad's bike, i would rather not waste time by parting with it to watch a boring movie like 300.

2)5 hours. the first time. and nee had one for the next 5 years

3) if staring at cute guys in silence counts then yes,i have done that many many times. actually forget aabout the silene part

4)what? feels like my brain is verbally challenged

5)hmm...no. i prefer watching c grade movies in my room with friends and popcorn

6)yes, not in that sense though. not girl/boy friend,my mom.she was stepping on the foot rest when i took off. that's when i was banned from taking anyone on my bike.

7)no. i only lock my room and forget the key on the lock

Thanks for dropping by my blog, Aman. You have quite an interesting blog!

Although I haven't done the things that are on your list, but I am a speed demon, I have locked my car keys and cell phone in the trunk of my car, and have done many other things that my friends classify under the "Abnormal" category! Rest assured you are not alone! :)

RB said...

Interesting questions but I have the answer to only one 'coz that's the only thing from this list that I've done. Sat in a cafe for more than 2 hours - alone, doing nothing.

But they're all normal. Everyone has some weird thing or the other going. So chill! :)

Anonymous said...

firstly, thnks for visiting my blog! :)

and about urs- i think these r quite normal as a human being- we often ponder over things we wonder about.. and then thrs nothing abnormal about it.. if it doesnt happen, then something's not normal.

did i confuse u? lol.

see u!
:D

Lucifer said...

You are reaching quite a cult status, my friend, with this question session of yours. Quite impressive!

Oh, and yes, you are abnormal.
And so are we all, in some other kind of ways.

bornfortheu.s.a said...

being normal or abnormal is just a perspective others have of you..

i do so many things that ppl think is weird but i do it coz i feel like doing it n i know i am normal.

so i guess if u feel like doing those things u r perfectly normal...
