The pot is calling the kettle black

My phone broke down.




(No not like this!!)




It stopped working.
And living without a phone in the modern world is like living without a heater in the ice-age! So he was given the task of finding the colony lineman. I searched meticulously for the lineman but could not find him. I searched and researched the parks, the streets, the alleys, the basements, the space underneath parked cars even but the lineman was nowhere to be found. In the end I found him.. Imagine where!.... near the telephone pole! wow! Why does it always happen that what you're trying to find is always found in the last place you look for it!

Anyways..I found him and told him..
"Excuse me bhayya.. my phone broke down!"

But he didn't reply. I asked him a couple of times and he's like this hung computer with the blue screen and gave no resposne to my mouse clicks or keyboard hits. I planned on giving him a ctrl + alt + del with my fist just when his colleague appeared. The other lineman. Lets call him lineman2. So I asked this guy why doesn't this guy respond. So he told me he's deaf and dumb. (And he repaired phonelines!!). But I asked then how does he talk on phone ??
"He's actually dumb but bolne kee acting karta rehta hai"
Oh! Damn both of them. I came to the point

"Okay.. Ive come here to tell you that my phone broke down"
So he replies, "So why you come to me ? Put it together with glue!"
I slapped my forehead! "I mean it has stopped working."
So he says "Ok! 26324828"
"Whats this ?? :O "

This was the MTNL Dosh sudhaar seva no. If you phone ever stops working you can simply call this no. to register your complaint and your phone will start working in a giffy. So I wonder.. A phone no. to rectify phone lines... Hmmmm... interesting!!

It took bloody 10 days for my phone to work. Damn these bloody govt. companies. They're so bloody lazy. Well, I feel I'm also pretty bloody lazy and my bloody calling someone else lazy is just like the bloody pot calling the kettle bloody black. Well,'The pot calling the kettle black'. So bloody cliched. Everyone uses it and I find it so.. so.. ineffective... Hence the time calls for a bloody new phrase in english. (Oh man! what a bloody paragraph)

Okay dude time. Ze Exaggeratorr at your service. And if you call me stupid now, it'll be like
'The potty calling the pot dirty'.

  • I had a problem once and it took 2 weeks to set right. And it took me 3 months to get BSNL broadband.

    My phone has been attacked by me atleast 4 times. It still works. I usually kill things in one go.

  • Hmm..so I'm probably the last one to leave a comment.
    MTNL Dosh sudhaar seva is not soo bad, I mean, within a month they do tend to fix up phone lines.
    And that was one hell of a bloody paragraph!
    Loved the ending though.
