Doing Jalsa &amp; Showing Jilpa

Vidya Mandir???
Mylapore???
Ashok: Of course. Is there another one? Oh wait. That shady Adyar one. They had just started that when I left VM.

Is it the impending tooth doom or a vaguery of sorts with the language…but HOw could you even think of such stuff….ling badaliye??!!

Sudharsan

so someone else Doing Jalsa and Pulling teetha? 🙂

HaHaHa! Welcome to the subtle jokes club. Pull/Sthree/Napunsaska!

One is inspired to poetry

The Vidhavan Pandit Shastri was mulling
Over the fact that all his students were pulling
He marched out of the door
Chopped the neem tree to the core
Kept a branch in his class and called it Treeling.

Naren,

Make that “Two” are inspired to poetry

A male baby seal may not be called a sealing,
but when he pilfers, it is stealing.
So when he goes to Denmark
On a whim and a lark,
Surgeons do some pulling and he becomes sthreeling

Your turn now.

mokkae max.. pull link it seems..
what about ram andshiv ??

Sumant

In true Mylapore fashion, we shall say, “adachee!” and go back to The Hindu’s crossword.

I am pot bellied and balding, I fear
And fascinated with Google Earth when drunk on beer
From the bottom of his heart
Wished a friend who’s very smart
Hairy Christmas and Mappy new year

This is turning out to be one of those qawalli ka muqabala between hero and heroine in hindi films.

So we move on to cartography eh? Never mind.

A geeky real estate agent named Ferrer
was hooked to Google Maps like a jihadi to terror
So when he opened Firefox one day
and Google said no way
He took his life because of a javascript error

Hahaha! Reminds me of someone, in Catch 22 i think, who was “shanghaied because of a faulty diode in an IBM machine”
Speaking of computers and their grand-daddy, shri gates, I have heard it said that
Melinda and Bill did physically attach
And Mel screamed “Faster! There’s a moment to catch
Said Bill with a blush
Darling I know you’re in a rush
But my vista’s downloading a security patch.

Ramanan

There is too much talk about Hindu crosswords here. I propose a “I Hate Nitaa Jaggi” Page

Ah the Beast from Redmond.

There was a nubile assassin named Beth
who snorted cocaine and crystal meth
Posing as a curtain seller at village fairs,
She would smear cyanide on her exquisite wares,
earning her the moniker – blue screen of death

jan

oh… god…

i just died from the mokkais.

maxdavinci

the talk of lings reminds me of idhayam oil-pulling!

someone was featured in the sunday chronicle!

Ashok: Not my fault. I had no idea that they would put in enough visuals to suggest to readers that I was actually forming a political party

Sudharsan

There was a blogger called Ashok,
or Krish, no one knew for sure.
He put so much mokkai in a post,
but it was the comments that were the toast,
Of the bloggers, whose poetry came to the fore.

One more thing to regret when I turn 30 « Cynic’s eye view

Just received – Spy message from our underground reporter in Redmond WA

Bills new secret OS is winning praise here
It’s sexier than a Victoria’s Secret Brassiere
It’s very chic and pro
Though I think it might be slow
Because they say it’s nick-named Windows Glacier

[…] present, and with the optimism of youth, I will continue not only to pen the stuff but to butt in limerick battles between two of the wittiest Indian […]

Shabba …..Hamari Christmas to u too .

Kamini

I am a simple girl who grew up in Perambur
Far from the peter-vuthufying folk in Mylapur
Of railways and mills my mind is full
But alas, not of stree, napunsaka and pull
So could you please explain the joke to one from another oor?!

Dear Kamini, it is but a simple matter,
of mixing web technology and sanskrit grammar
The a href and /a make a hyperlink
while Pull and Sthree notify genders, I think.
The ~~joke~~ mokkai is in mixing the former with the latter

Kamini

To Krishashok:

Oh kind sir I give you thanks
For at last I have joined the ranks
Of those brilliant South Madras blokes
Of those laughing at your jokes
Now I too can go laughing all the way to the banks!

(Surely wisdom tooth removal well be less painful than reading all these awful limericks!! Good luck anyway, and a very happy New Year)

Prithvi

At work I’m often found reading Krish’s blog,
Loved the bit about Achuthanandan’s dog,
It keeps me entertained,
Less stress, therefore less strain,
As I find myself getting sucked into this bog.

Mahesh

Microsoft may have called it Glaicer,
which you might think is a tad easier
But the Glacier’s hold Man United
for which thousands are devoted,
No point I think, might as well get randier!

chokkathangam

ioooo…… just to bring in an element of innovation/inspiration, i quote from the ‘karadi tells’ or karadispeak (i could do something original, but it would pale in comparison with the master and hence i make no effort):-

soolakaruppan adi da
idha sollikitte pudi da
(PIAOW PIAOW PIAOW PIAOW)
gumthalakara gumma
idha vaangikada summa
(DISHKIAOW DISHKIAOW DISHKIAOW)
Aathankali Paduthakali Stinkali
Vaada en thakali
(DUNGu DINGU DOBAKATEEL)

someone help me out with the last 2 lines

Supriya Raman

Hamari christmas and teri happy new year to you krishashok! Been following your blog for a long while now, finally got to commenting.

Grounded and Fried Spice mixed Curd liquid…….funny ! Wouldn’t some crispy sepankizhangu fry or parupusili be amazing with that?

maami

KA is a big-time blogger, and boy is he Peter
Jalsa, jilpa, gilma, it sure don’t matter
Witty, funny, naughty, he is by choice
The southside shore ne’er got a better voice
Id, Diwali or X-Mas, just don’t stop your natter!

rambodoc

May I place my protest on record for such ling-uistic tyre-ani in limericks? St. Patricks Day is three months away, for Iyerappa’s sakes! Merry Krishmas, BTW!

Siva

ok, been following this blog for ages, seldom tempted to comment, but can’t resist this:

I usually think “will comment some other time”
but now when I see this battle of rhyme
between the funny Krish and the witty Naren
I say, “naanum indha velayatukku varen”
after all, writing mokkai is not a crime!!!

Manish Krishnan

Krish’s poetry has a bit of a format,
it starts of wit a ,
,
The cunning plan of the man hath been revealed,
but, oops.. I dun think I’m much of a Rhymer.

Manish Krishnan

Oh crap, HTML’s a sucker..
Krish’s poetry has a bit of a format,
it starts of wit a (name goes here),
(The next line makes it sound as though,
the line was written in rhyme with the former),
The cunning plan of the man hath been revealed,
but, oops.. I dun think I’m much of a Rhymer.
