Notice

Yes, Yes, that is right. Your eyes are not deceiving you.

Canines have indeed been thrown out of my hostel block.

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes.

More than two years after this, and a month after this. A culmination of all the complaining we ever did, all the struggles we underwent to make this happen. Swa, awesomest Girl Rep. You make things happen.

And GB juniors, if any, who might be reading this, do not fritter away this hard-won canine-free environment… keep the gates closed, and if you see any four-legged being, however cute, DO NOT FEED IT. COMPLAIN, INSTEAD.

Whoa, I guess that gives me the distinction of being the one and only dogbite victim of GB. Guess there were none before, and hopefully, there will be none after.

PS: Nothing to do with the rest of the post, but yesterday was when I heard second-hand of one of the most entertaining, most WTF-inducing context to the usage of the phrase “Let’s Just Be Friends”. The incongruity of it all has me laughing still. Oh, and there was another a month or so back, but that wasn’t half as entertaining as memorable.

PPS: This post isn’t really a ‘post’…. the latest one is this one, on Engineers, Engineering and the like. Go ahead skip to it.

  2. Aaah…that explains it! Yest night at 12 near Amul shop ppl gathered to witness what will come to know as one of the gretest dog fight ever. 3 small dogs chasing a big black one-talk about “size doesn’t matter” !

    So, looks like good for gb but bad for cheese loving junta!
