the eternal question..."AEEE MAN....WHERE ARE YOU FRAM?"

in course of my REALLY long engg life and some time after that in kerala....i ve subjected to the question too many times to even count....it was like a rule in college days, u screw up somehow..(whose fault it is always debatable)....and den follows the question WHAM!..
AEEE STUPUD FEELOW...WHERE ARE YOU FRAM???
watever u answer is not important....u gonna get cursed anyways.....now after so many years i ve gotten used to dis question but in the starting of my stay it felt
"why on earth are ppl suddenly so interested in my place of birth anyways??"
not that i m makin a secret out of it or nething...but really.....if u dont hav some xerox or lab record....what has THAT got to do it wid which place u belong to i fail to understand...
and the question keep pouring....it was a routine in earlier part of my engg....wen i suspected my lecturers were maintainin some sort of chart or periodic table of some sort.....and somehow dis is a very important question...its lyk d moment dey think of some person dey shud kno where he was born...
and i neva really took a liking to dis phenomenon....and i found dis in,at the expense of soundin completely regionlistic.....GOD!...is that even a term?, TAMIL NADU AND KARNATAKA T-H-E most....


i even thot of some explanations for that.....well the best wud b d place where u come from somehow reflects ur character but seriously how is comin late to a particular class related to my place of birth is completely beyond me

and in my due course of enggineering...not only my college lecturers made it a point to ask me a zillion times....but the
whole city suffers from the WHERE R U FRAM bug...
be it auto drivers....railway staff.....shopkeepers....bus conductors....GOD!...an it s jus irritating at times...
once a guy at the theatre askd me where i was from???.....imagine....and i was like NOW WHAT???
an being askd this question means u hav screwd up somewhere and r about to b cursed for that....so its up to u to answer the question and in the mean tym figure out what is it that u had done wrong and rectify that...

i once showed my middle finger to a teacher of mine(of course behind his back) while he was ridin his bike....he saw it in d mirror....came back and the same "AE MAN WHERE R U FRAM?"

now cmmon after 4 years again that question????

it gets sicker and sicker......to the point that u ll get frustrated wid the question.....and now in gurgaon if some1 asks me dis question i start laughing and dey dont know why

guess i ll neva be able to tell dem why its funny to me,although the frequency of INTERROGATION is very less compared to the tough times i had in my colg(my middle finger to all u so called LECTURERS....)

an so the question keeps popping the most unexpected times....

so TELL ME MAN...NO NO NO TELL ME I SAY...
AEEEE USELESS FELLOW...WHERE ARE U FRAM??
