Pissing off Mumbaikars

BOMBAY (21 Apr) As much as I love this city, nothing beats annoying the hell out of its dyed-in-the-wool residents. Case in point --- IPL loyalties. Having spent 2.5 years in Mumbai, my cricket loyalties are torn apart in a 70:30 ratio between, yes you guessed it right, Delhi and Mohali.
Call me choosy, but I will select Preity Zinta over Nita Ambani any day. And lets face it, Mumbai "Indians" is the gayest team name ever, gayer than even Kolkata "Knight Riders".

I am now waiting for my Delhi Daredevils cap to arrive from Delhi. Sitting in a Mumbai college hostel and cheering against Sachin Tendulkar should be fun!!

Just to remind you, the 'Delhi Daredevils' cap is second-hand ! Already tried and tested by Delhi-6 :)

@tweety: I hope Delhi-6 uses a good shampoo (and a fragrant conditioner) :-) And what's with masking out the word-verification? Was it a pondi word ;-) ?

@goldensilence: I hope I get that privilege on 4th May!

@burf: yup

what is this? I feel cheated.. I was expecting a long post really "giving it" to Mumbaikars.. after the failed attempt to marry one of them.. and here you are giving one liners about some IPL stuff.. what is this craziness in India? I feel so left out..

BTW, No.. I don't like these short posts.. :-((

Upshett!!

@vandana: Daya kar do bechare Mumbaikars par! They have lost 4 out of 4 matches, and are languishing at the bottom rung right now. Waise, this IPL thing is big in India. I for one am hooked!

And your objection at short posts has been duly noted :)
