Dear all,
I have read all the recent postings, and many thanks to
all of you for criticizing me and for supporting me.
I have learnt NOT to let criticisms, especially anonymous snipings, bog me down, nor let praise get over my
head, though, like all human beings, I do appreciate
words of appreciation from many of you friends who may
not always agree with me, but who nontheless see a value
in discussing diverse topics.
But first things first: It's great to see this GBNC site alive and kicking with so many voices. Keep up the good work, Gaunle.
You've done me more favors than I can thank you for. In days
ahead, I expect more attacks and more criticisms from you
ands your friends in Somerville, and that'd be OK.
Thanks to you, Gaunle, the innocent phrase "amygdala hijacking"
will be on all our lips next time we see our emotionally
volatile friend(s) erupt to self-devastation, shaking all
over and trying to destroy others' reputation, friendships
and much else besides.
Fortunately, some of us ARE made up some tenaciously sterner
stuff, and just because an emotional idiot erupts to self-devastation, shaking all over and tries -- in private email lists and others -- to destroy others' reputation, friendships and
much else besides DOES NOT MEAN that the idiot shall
have an easy time. :-)
As the great Dr. Dinesh Nath Gongal -- the one who,
alas, seem to have spent his whole life blowing up
at his patients and nurses and colleagues -- have recently realized, in the twilight moment of his life, just in time
to teach us all: "Be patient. Be humane, and love everybody."
I intend to follow Dr. Gongal's published advice with
all my heart.
On another note, I know that my occasional quoting Dr. Gongal's words of wisdom, and my quoted-from-experts references to genetics drive some poster crazy (I think we all know what
his real name is!!), and if so, I advise him to drink a glass
of water, and not come to the kichen if he can't stand
the heat in this OPEN and
NOT-controlled-by-the-moderator-who's-your-beer-drinking-buddy space.
Now, taking cue from Gaunle, come, let us get our aggressions
out and vent our frustrations by giving all the more "gaali" to Ashutosh Tiwari -- Mr. Smart Ass, Mr. Smarty Pants,
Mr. Know-it-all and all that and more. :-)

Ashu, please just be quiet sometimes. It says a volume. I know after saying this, there is a likelihood you will come back to me and at me with all your force and might to discredit me with your quote from whachmacallit to tell me to shut up or come up with "a specific point." But, since you are such a fan of quoting quotable quotes - "Silence is golden." Think about this sometimes in all quietness, without your books, editor-friends, kamaiya daleet and pireet. Just *be quiet* please - sometimes.
your friend still (?)

No need to thank The Lone Gunslinger (from the Wild East). I am perfectly all right without it.
Let me tell you something. There are those that love you, they see you a prophet. There are those that hate you, they see you as a net bully (who has the last word on every thing). Both of you which you are not.
And I am not one of those guys. I always make it a point to go through your postings. But sometimes I wish you would SHUT THE F*** UP for a while. That would earn you more friends, including yours trully.

Here's my new conspiracy theory.
Did y'all notice how, when the Kantipur folks got tossed into jail, all of a sudden hawkers could get 25 rupees for photocopies of Bhattarai's article? Attacking someone gives them more power.
Therefore, my conspiracy theory of the week is this: Lone Gunslinger=Prem=Gaunle=Ashu. It's a ploy to get attention.
So next time someone attacks Ashu, just respond by posting, "Hi Ashu." Then if it IS Ashu, he'll stop it.
And if it's NOT Ashu, but someone who hates him with the whole quivering passion of his amygdalla, then the anonymous ammygdaloid poster will get so mad at being called by the name of someone he hates that his amygdalla will hijack him and take him off to Jumla, where he won't find a computer to write on, and then his amygdalla will explode in frustration, and we'll all be rid of him.
How about it?

Oh everyone just shut up and mind your own business. Let Ashu do what he wants to do and that is write. All of you losers have ego problems...oh this guy can write better than me but don't wanna admit it. If you don't like him then don't read his article. Bunch of fools! I am disgusted by all of you. Some people like to write, some like to fu**, some like to gossip, and some like to blurt out random things about others.

Hi Kancha Kancha,
That was a joke. (My posting, anyway).
Btw I don't want to start a bad trend by screwing up the timeline of the postings like that ... it was actually a mistake, although I learned something new (which is that if you don't hit "reply" after the exact last posting in the sequence your own posting will be out of sequence)

I think the truth is that ashu is wracked with so much insecurity that he needs to address and defend every single and even pettiest of criticisms, so as to deflect them elsewhere and make himself feel better. When he is talking about the emotional devastation, and how he fathoms the emotional statelessness of Dipendra on the fateful Friday night, I am afraid he's talking about himself. If it helps him talk about it aloud, even to the point of irritating the rest of us, so be it. To his credit, it's his measure of tackling his state of mind without actually being violent. However, let it be known that we all do have problems and limitations no matter what, there is no need to force ourselves to be perfect.
