I visited a school the other day…over some absolutely aimless project that I am into. But since this visit would keep the innumerable cheques from bouncing at the beginning of any given month, I trudged along reluctantly.
Unfortunately or otherwise, I overheard bits of alien conversation between the kids, once I was there. They had weird hand-gestures, tongue movements, and the Lord Almighty knows what else. (I’m sure I sound like a sickeningly pious and parochial old hag) To top it all, they looked at me as if I was the only thing the dinosaurs left behind. How encouraging!!! Do I want to go back to school? Definitely not.
Based on the behavior of school kids these days, I have conjured up an imaginary scenario that could well play out sometime soon. Here goes:
A normal conversation over Zingbomb (The new Dragon Well Chinese Tea-based aerated drinks launched by PepsiCo…available at all school cafeterias for 100 bucks…300 ml):
Kid 1: 'Aw, fuzjit! She’s such a butter face!'
Kid 2: 'The new girl? Yeah she is ugly!'
Note: Don’t know the meaning of "fuzjit"…just picked it up from one of those random conversations that I overheard. However, after extensive research, I found out, "butter face" just means "but her face". Meaning, her body is sexy enough…but her face! Also, sixth-standard kids are mature enough to start analyzing women. Revelation! All I could do when I was 12 was read Nancy Drew, treating it as adult literature.
Kid 1: 'Anyways. Don’t have much time for women. Dad’s gonna put my a** on fire if I don’t perform this semester. Last time was an epic fail man!'
Kid 2: (Guffaws)
Note: "Epic fail" signifies a mistake of such gargantuan proportions that it’s almost legendary.
Kid 3: (Going forward to meet Kid 1…handing him some Chiptech...blue potato chips launched by Lays…available at all school cafeterias for 50 bucks…per packet) 'What an Orz man…I am so ruined. I lost all my project papers!'
Note: "Orz" is a Japanese emoticon of a man pounding his head on the floor. The o is the head. The r is the arms. The z is the legs. Used to symbolize the emotion of frustration.
This could actually go on. But I just decided to give my scenario a "wtf". My research says "wtf" is profane for print. So let’s not analyze.
