Chatting

by | 10 Oct 2013

Yesterday, I was waiting in line to get this year’s flu shot at my work. Two women ahead in the line were loudly expressing their personal opinions about other people they knew, what movies and movie stars they liked etc. It was quite annoying. Afterward many others started their own conversations in their little groups as the line grew. Finally, it became a marketplace where only few people were quiet. I didn’t like it but then again I was thinking I might have done the same thing if I had a friend with me. I guess generally people are chatty; some more than others.

দলাদলি

দলাদলি এবং বিভক্তি নিয়ে বাংলাদেশী বা মুসলমানদের সম্পর্কে যা বলা হয় তা মনে হয় সত্যি নয় কারন এক ইহুদী লোকের কাছ থেকে আমি এই কৌতুকটা শুনেছি – দুই ইহুদী এক হলে নাকি তিন দল করে। দুইজন আলাদা আলাদাভাবে দুই দল এবং দুইজন একত্রে আর এক দল...

When Thoughts Aren’t Private

I just watched the first episode (“Joan Is Awful”) of the seventh season of Black Mirror on Netflix. It was incredibly dark. The story follows how a poor, everyday family falls victim to corporate greed. The premise was chillingly simple: you pay more money for the...
