Do u smell smoke ???

My colleague sitting next to me said "Do you also smell smoke?"

Me: "yes"

Colleague: Where is it possibly coming from?

Me: May be its the 'Fire in the belly' here", pointing at my stomach.

When he started lifting his finger to cover his nose, did I realize what I had just blurted out.
I had to then clarify that it was another PJ, and no problem with my stomach.

For Mara Tamils...Vadivelu dialogues in real life

Vadivelu dialogues have more or less become part of life and is a rage these days in Tamilnadu...the instances I have come across make me ROFL. Here are few...

@my cousins wedding
My two lovely niece studying in 1st/2nd standard were standing before the reception area, and were bowing to people coming in and at their top of their voice would welcome with (this vadivel dialogue)...
"Vanthuttanngayya Vanthuttanga"...


@my friends regret
Friend aged 26 had eagerly started bride search in websites. To his dismay, his parents have told him that "Going by your horoscope, you must not marry now. As you are gonna be unsettled and shuffling place of residence for next 2 years and marriage would break if you marry over this time".

I tried to cajole him with some nice ideas and suggested, "Why dont u start searching now, get engaged to some nice girl and marry after this 2 years. Have you suggested this to your parents?"

His (vadivel dialogue) reply was "Aaniyae pudunga vendamnu sollittanga..."

@my cousin to her sister-in-law
Cousin: "Why haven't you gone and had lunch at that hotel?, food is very very good and its next to ur place of residence..."

Sister-in-law: "I was waiting for your brother to take me there till now."

Cousin(used the Vadivels dialogue): "Aaahhaaaaaa! Aaahhaaaaaa!!! Ambuttu nallavangalaaa neenga???"

@regarding my future marriage plans
Whenever someone asked me about my marriage plans, I used to reply, "Nowadays my affection to hindi is increasing day by day...so who knows...??"

Cousin asked "Have you told this to parents and got their approval???"

Eventhough my parents said they wouldnt mind since this (Vadivel dialogue) quote was appropriate I just replied, "Hmmmm...well their reply was 'Pechhu! Pechhaa thaan irukkanum!!!'. "

I am ...

My colleague SK mentioned after a days work, "I am 'tired'."


My another colleague VJ immediately replied, "I am 'Vimal'."

There is a problem facing me here!!!

My friend was looking at the desktop and was deeply engrossed in debugging his code. He called my name and said "I have a problem facing me here..."

He lightened up on hearing my reply, "Why dont you turn around?"

Life's ups & downs

I am scrapping with this friend who is in Chennai after some 3-4 years. On her question on "Hows life?"

My reply: Life has been good with its usual ups & downs. How abt urs?
Her reply scrap: Yup, with lots of ups & down here as well.
My reply: I didnt know that Chennai roads are as bad as Gurgaon roads?
(I am residing in Gurgaon for some years now. Now, after this scraps exchange, she is not replying back to any of my scraps)

Short of Vision as ...

RS, had earlier described to me a business opportunity which IMHO did not exists.
PK: Business plan that u r suggesting, at any day is not implementable by a third party.
RS: You need to have vision to implement this.
PK: Yes, as I am short on vision, I am indeed short-sighted.
(Just FYI, I wear specs for short sight.)

Be careful abt spell check correction in outlook

My colleague in UK had accepted all corrections suggested by Outlook mail and sent the mail to his manager(Anil).

Later did he realise the mistake of accepting all when he read the 1st line of the mail as
"Hi Anal, "

Tamil PJ (to be enjoyed by S/w Enggrs)

Me: Hi, Yeppadi irukka?

Friend: Nulla kiraenn.

Me: NULLa kiraenna???, Why dont u declare a variable and set the value?

It will go for a toss...

There was a technical discussion when AM mentioned that making these changes to the framework will cause the system unstable and it will go for a toss.
My question was "Should we expect a head or tail...kind of result"

Small entry

GN was mentioning about configuration changes to get validation framework to work. He said " 'small' entries have to be made to this config file".
I had a genuine doubt "Should we have to reduce the font size and make these entries?"

'Sleep'ishly I replied "2 & 1/2 feet."
