Papi in a Porsche & Pocket full of Change

 

Park yourself for this, the truth will blind us

 

The Big Never!

“The day your barber stops having fun

The jokes are on you @ your Ex’s salon”

 

-          Arjun the Storyteller

 

 

Like a Dream the hot wheels rolled into the down town cafe, Vroom symphony to my ears. Unless this sweet RiDe was for me, it was Stealing my thunder on a guy’s birthday for crying out loud!

Distinguished Dude with a Buzz cut steps out of the Yellow Porsche.

Fancy Fantasy & How. He tosses the keys to the valet “Do me a favour don’t lose it between the driveway & parking”

 

Kamusta Papi... He responds “you know with a song in my heart”

I didn’t sign up for this... but then whose stopping me from smiling.

Si

The Degenerate had big plans, while waiting for the coffee it plays in the fool’s head, To drive a ride I can’t afford & go with a plan I do not have

 

Pulling out a bottle of courage the Nervous wreck time travels while his lips start Banging out the story... Its been 4 years give or take

I used to be something of a mess!

Drinking wine killing time, I was crazy about her!

she used to say

“I am a German car, if you don’t take care of me I just won’t perform”

 

-          Arjun the Storyteller

 

 

when it rains, it pours... Cruising Along

like any couple they had a Mid life crisis, so she went for those Hideous bags which Ladies adore while he got those Wannabe Flashy Beast in which Douche bags roll… Papi gifted himself a 911 & named it Honey. He always looks at the beauty & keeps telling himself

“It seemed like a good idea at that time”.

He forgot Lesson 101 - A penny saved is a penny earned

 

A lil too much a little too late, it was all because of the “The kill box” Missus

She & I we go way back

Mi Amor… She was Cold Like December!

While we were apart she got an offshore lover...

Half Sorry

She breaks his heart, He breaks the guys jaw (Nasty shit right there)

She packs her bag, He packs his broken dreams

 

Long story short...

 

Confident like a Looney

He starts the car

Lost his partner

He changed the Gear

Lost his house

He changed the Gear

Lost his job

He Crashed

FUBAR

 

I had parts of me shaking I didn’t even know I had

Sucker Punched, he Drove all night… there goes hells bells

To confused to act, to shocked to react

A day later a dollar short, He learnt the hard way that “More is Less”

 

When you got nothing to lose, what you do is Smile

Well it burnt from red to Ashes alright

The Stages of Frustration > Upset > Anger > React > Sorrow > eventually you laugh at yourself.

 

Some Wise Ass once said, its not having what you want, its wanting what you got

The world just doesn’t learn that Fun is priceless, Am I lying

Life is more exciting when you are broke. It turns out to be an interesting story

Ready for Round 2, Papi now sticks to - Tuesday Hangovers, Thursday Brunches &

Sunday Storytelling Duuu

Papi: Do you wanna take her for a spin

Don’t mind if I do... she’s a bomb

The 3^rd Wheeler shouts “I call Shotgun”

 

Salud

 “being your terrible self is sometimes your best self”

& guess what, people like it

 

-          Arjun the Storyteller

 

 

take out Charlie from 2 & a Half Men, what you get is just not interesting without that Mother Bitch

its like sucking the fun out of it.

 

Lets start Brewing Stories... Do you care for a Strong, Hot & Bitter one

i like my Stories like i like my Coffee

no no no sweeteners...

Spare me! Give it to me Straight.

Be true to yourself,

 

The difference between how things look like in your head vs “they are” is an alter ego,

Can you paint a picture now! If anything mine will definitely have horns ____ in the head Yo

 

For a moment think, How would you introduce yourself…

Arjun the Storyteller, King of the Cool, a Player, the BadAss, Ruler of Crazy Energy, Lord of Coffee Junkies, Breaker of 6 Strings and Father of Satire. Cynically correct, V Cheesy, Sarcastic to get you confused, Super Cocky, Unconventional as hell.

From the House Nomad!

 

Honest to god kinda shit - while the IDEA is definitely Cult & the world wants it so bad that they are chasing it as soon as they wake up however the THING is that …

Life is more than fitting into your old jeans

Get in Line Sucker, c’est la vie

 

Its Quite a tale – Things happened over Coffee, I feel French today

Bella + Ella (Alias) are those you find from the Joker to Queens of Heart

These gals were Young & Wicked, takes one to know one

They would Kick those heels & say yes to everything

Ella wanted to do everything Bella had to do, from the hair to shoes to bags. Well it wasn’t only fashion this went on to the turn where she just wanted to talk or be like her. You get the idea, Ella was obsessed to have Bella’s LIFEstyle per say

 

Bella was an Underdog, attractive, Sensational, she would make them run for their money

She is one of those… overnight success & coming out of the closet

The chic with a few words, 1 Line slinger

Effortless, Blockbuster PERIOD

Stealing my friends type feeling

 

While Ella was Un-cool, Nobody likes you, Trying to fit in

The white shadow, seriously just Plastic

You can literally see right through her. Always wants to be the Centre of attention sorts

Retire that act!

 

an Alter Ego is Overrated while a Wannabe would definitely get carried away but then…

It doesn’t fix it but it kinda helps the Ego

Anyways

It was a beautiful Sunny Day that winter, both of em bet on who can pull off a Prank on this Guy

You won’t believe this shit

Bella tells Ella to make a move & seduce the guy to only hang him to dry!

So the lounge act… open to sky cafe

 

He grabs his Americano to go

Ella was Ogling the eye candy to sit on his lap

He sips his coffee

Drooling Ella blabbers, I don’t watch or do commentary rather play the Sport, if you know what I mean

He sips his coffee

IF you wanna speak crazy I am fuckin fluent! Run your imagination wild

He sips his coffee

Bella whispers to Ella - Do not lose the big picture here

He sips his coffee

Bella couldn’t stop being herself so she says out loud; If I could buy anything... I would buy time

“He shouts for a Re-Fill”

Smiles, giggles, Teeth, get a room already

 

Bella caught his attention & the stud compliments her to show his charm

Hush Hush! I didn’t know at that time till after… they had a French, what you kids call it “connect” haha

When they vanish into the crowd while Paparazzi caught them on tape

You know how it goes – “ladies want CHEESE & gentlemen always on the LEFT want PEACE”

Whatever makes you sleep at night because we all know Ladies are always RIGHT

 

After the Hibernation

The Uncomfortable truth – Bella stole the guy while she bet Ella to play

This was Disturbing at so many crazy levels

Bella thought that she can spin it off to have a bite of that meat, Even though she was in a Spot still she had No regrets because it was a given that Ella isn’t gonna nail it

Ella was actually trying to be Bella which she is clearly not. The copycat had to face the facts of life

Ella Made a lot of bad decisions when she knew that she is never gonna be Bella

All is on you, a really bad liar to yourself

 

For Ella Little things add up & It was the Day when she was able to be in the clear

She tells Bella - You have real talent & I am not just saying

You are practically all they talk about

Opened my eyes to the possibility that I need my own identity

Bella breaking the ice said; I don’t like people so I like meeting new ones... That went well, band-aid it

Yadda yadda yadda

 

I hate to break up the party!

I hope you got some “moral” out of it, or not then you Morons learnt 2 words of French

Whose the one with the real.. really important problems?

 

 

Bon Voyage

I showed you mine, Now show me yours

What you got for me, come on chop chop (send me a postcard) gosh ya you. WRitE to me!

Small Talk Long Walk

A Minute Read Affair

I write about Love & relationships we keep... Lifestyle blogger & more

Small Talk Long Walk

Folks this is a Colossal story, As good as a True Russian Novel that can be digested in a minute

I am narrating a more apt version, Ooops No No No Best Version for the larger audience

The writer inside of me needs to keep in mind - How you like your story?!

> Spicy, Dramatically wild, Thrilling... Hmmm

Might leave you as confused as a guy in Pajamas, who is running around in broad day light on the streets of Manhattan

I promise you it will be worth your while, so read on

Last Summer! I was on a road trip, One night in a small town far far away I was invited over for drinks.

So I somehow have this thing in which, I land up in places where I am not supposed to be…

I remember it was a Nice rooftop, little chill in the breeze with Flamboyant chics around me who called themselves Social butterflies. Its all coming back to me now

Tall Anita (alias) with a bottomless drink in her hand started pouring her heart out, Those Itchy Scars…

Expressing the Dwindling feelings while she Time Travels to relive those moments, she looks at her friend sitting next to her, getting the affirmation to share which she couldn’t resist because her lips can’t be sealed any longer… (I am not sure but somehow I might be a good listener or something that I get to hear such stories from the horse’s mouth!!!)

My Awfully Lawfully wedded Husband really did a number on me…

“Sometimes you gotta eat with the one you hate”

Well it all started when she figured out that they had no chemistry or biology together, while they drove down to Goa & things fell apart. They were like 2 horses pulling a wagon, it was kinda over

She goes on saying that Its like you don’t know this person that you get in bed with every night

So I said, “that’s where your problem really started”!

& she goes NO there is more!

Give me a million bucks & I still wouldn’t do it again

Anita’s Beloved was Jonesing on a Dude, if you know what I mean

Here it gets interesting… Enters a Charming old Devil (Duuuh in her story stupid)

Poster boy those girls called him! Guess whose ManFriend is this one haha

She said, I found him when I wasn’t even looking…

Well the funny thing was they both met at the same fancy place we were drinking that night, how her 2^nd innings began & so she spilled the beans

Anita told me that she looked at him & thought, there is always a possibility to fall in love again, only if you are lucky to get who you want, because sometimes as much as you try you will never “want what you have”!

So it happened to her, One thing led to another… boom - Come be my girlfriend & you play boyfriend

Not legally separated they think, Whats the worst that can happen

Well they became the “Talk of town”

Far out!

Anita goes on telling me that her husband infiltrated some jazz. I mean espionage type of shit

He is Pure as a beast, finding New ways to screw me over

When confronted by her husband, she tried making up stories... crappy excuses if you may

Now when the plays gone south, shit gets real!

She was slapped with multi-million $$$ lawsuits

She said: I am a Lover not a Fighter

Her Parents don’t back down & so it goes on…

I often wonder how long can she live the Secret life. I mean look at it…

Estranged married couple, who Love to hate (not HIS fault that HE likes Boys)

Then with a Bunch of Lies everywhere! comes next a…

“West side story” The world is against them

While they Cohabitate

Spouse gets wind of the affair

A trap & a Trace

Highly unlikely it goes on forever

Anyways I told Anita: Against all odds you live this damn well! On the outlook you seem like a Bindass Lady, Glad we had that chat… May I write about your story?

She said I have more than angels to Break my fall... Knock yourself out!

The battle still goes on. You win some you lose some

Counting her blessings, she Smiles like a Clown & Shines like a Star

You Do You

PS: Neither can I confirm nor deny the facts of the story!

Echoes Dasvidaniya

True as can be

The Baggage which weigh so much, Surely is a Pain in the neck

The Baggage with the weight of the Past, Hmmm isn’t it like a Pain in the Ass

-          Arjun the Storyteller

Time for Flying solo she once adored.

Can’t begin to comprehend or tell you the story of how it was for this Wanderluster,

Rambunctious as she was (Alias) Rose had an open ticket for her Indian Yoga tour, packed & stuffed everything she needs in her rucksack, gave away the cat to a loved one. Coming out of those life changing 5 year long relationships, she drags the After taste of the episode for some time.

With a cause for culture to less than love & more than friends that she so seeks… amongst those eyes so deep beyond her wildest dream!

In no order - Grabbing beers, missing flights, cancelling reservations, forgetting diet, meeting strangers, cruzin across the upcountry, hopping towns, not to be found in any spot

After weeks on the road she was missing home, while too much was riding on her shoulder. When the thrill is gone, you are at peace, somewhere when the excitement settles…

Offloading “them excess junk” she takes out that Red passport from her pouch…

“To say goodbye is to die a little”

In the background… Singing on the 6 string

There’s no future, there’s no past, in the present nothing lasts

Vanished in the haze Of Love Gone Wrong

Lately something’s missing from now on…

In a dilemma when the mind said to carry light while her heart tells her “why do you have cold feet”?

When you take someone else’s name while dating, Like seriously!

You know whatever you had, Ran its course

She said “Mister… its written all over your face”, I’ve seen worse!

He said “I’ve seen better! I am like a river which flows in all directions but one.

She: You owe me a long conversation!

He: Does the Invitation still stand?

If you leave you are a coward but if you stay you will be an enemy

The guy who got stood up heard a whisper “you’d be letting go”!

There is much Lost in transit

From the baggage to the secret crush! So it goes again…

Cross my heart & hope to die, in the end its You & I

Recently I was told that the world is incapable of “loving” or was it “1 lover” Mmhmmm

First of all you are not the only one who lost everything

Its not about chance its about choice!

The price you paid to have experienced everything

The feeling when you “don’t want to” but you “have to”

When you look back on the Journey of life, you smile on the things which you once cried over… While the Colorful past brings out the Shades of you

Life is one big story! feels so right...

Its my cue to buzz off, seeya Later Alligator

"UnFollow"

UnFollow

“You love the idea of something but not the thing itself”

The lust for a New World… Hope for possibilities, Adventures & more

Historically till date we have been hooked on to the “Love for Power”, by conquering & building empires! The Fascination of Travel, experience new places, especially foreign lands, from learning new cultures to meeting new people & party galore. Commerce & development are of course amongst the others.

Correct me if I am wrong but didn’t everyone FOLLOW - the Italian Explorer Christopher Columbus to make the great continent of Americas?!

Legend has it that He took 4 voyages (didn’t have navigation apps or the technology to help the poor chap) & so happens to be tagged the 1^st dude to discover the Land however not true!

Anyways this isn’t a history lesson but as a matter of fact

“we are programmed to follow something even if it wasn’t partially true”

Largely because You & I believe in things quickly

Nowadays we call them “influencers” who make your eyes glued on to it…

I realized while posting wacky Bitmoji that my gang started following me… I freakin became the influencer in that small moment you see

On the other hand some can have an identity crisis with the Avatar & we all fall down - ROFL if you may Gen Y

So the unconventional story goes… “She & him” HOW?!

Somewhere in an exotic location

What happens on tour stays on the tour… No paparazzi as I always say

Starry night with live music in the background. The gang Playing the game… Never have I ever which ends with Truth or dare

Put the money where your mouth is… bets on when the stakes are high

Aging slowly… Loosing sleep for the bitter sweet getaways

Its more than meets the eye, over time…

When you are delusional to find yourself in the middle of a highway to choose which path is this leading, is this one a friend or an enemy

Confused like a lost puppy. So you stay in Denial, rather Interestingly

Its true that World loves underdogs, they want the weaker to win. You might have seen this in the infamous Cricket Finals when you guys Never Rooted for England while the irony is that they created the game while never won it!!! Haha I am right on that for sure! Think again

This one tells the brains to gather courage - If you are a loser then you have nothing to lose

But when she started acting out, it was all downhill from there

Dreary as it is

She takes a sigh & says… You are putting your hands where they don’t belong

Long enough to realize that… you tell me anything & I will believe you

Well from sparks to fire they put on a show. The moment when he conceded

The guy shrugs his shoulders whispering “The irony is you have me but you still want me” Quite Gallant don’t you readers think

I am terrible! For crying out loud, everything is a Hypothesis

While we tear ourselves away! These kids don’t take it lying down if you know what I mean

You can’t say Yes to everything while you can learn how to fashionably say NO

you can love something but maybe not like it at the same time, just what your brother will have to say about you haha…

Its like “the Second choice”, when the other feels weird & you ask “are you J?”

& it ends with - Tell me something that I can always remember & hold on to…

Never in your life… you felt so free!

It is this feeling which comes only with experience, when you let go

More than often it is an addiction, an obsession, just the fear of how life will be without “it”

The “it” can be anything from a bad habit to a crazy relationship!

There is a Time to Play, Time to Shine & Time to Detox

Adios Amigos!

Placebo

There is an Italian saying “Years, Lovers & Glasses of wine… These are the things that should not be counted”

I will + Ritual video meetings to it now.

A wing & a prayer, all you need in the times we live in. Living as your last, anything is possible… something magical, you never know

Continuing from my last post… Lockdown 2.0 “The New Normal” they call it

This is the 1^st & Last chapter. reality check - All farts no shit!

Ground zero & To my horror I realized that Diwali came early this time, @9 for 9 haha! for things like these, Short time memory loss will help live the lockdown as day 1.

A Plausible argument! I want to take this one describing the effect

Everyone likes a good Lockdown story

You think you’ve seen one you’ve seen em all

Take a hard left to disneyland

The sharpness for the outdoors, dressing up classy & cool, Missing my hands upon the wheel, just drive to nowhere… abusing everyone & anyone who change lanes while you are on the road. Packing a bag & the thrill to travel

So I was getting bored at home, missing the sheer pleasure of driving & couldn’t take it anymore! While it was safe still its Not for Everyone…

I got ready & I mean power dressing shit! rolled up my windows no contact or chat with anyone, I drove to the unknown

With the confidence I wore got me crossing the barriers. The cops were literally saluting me

Can you pull it off?!

I am sure the Next time when you drive you will hold the steering like a kid holds an ice cream cone

Breaking News!

The story about Mahabharata is based on confusion created by women & not the Epic War for the Throne! Didn’t you watch the re-runs carefully Duuuh

Oldies are so glued on the Mahabharata & Ramayan Binge watching… Making DD the most watched channel!

WTF time

Rub some luck on me, Por Favor! In the past few days this is the exact thought a friend had. Beg borrow steal but money can’t buy you a phone nowadays. Some bad space without a working device & quite alone!

She survived by making the best of it by list of books to god knows what

Discounted Life, Everything is Paused… relationships, to some stuck without a phone & counting their blessings

Beyond the usual, While we connect with others, you need to connect with yourself.

The “Me time” which will bring you out of this Lockdown constructively. Some will lose hope & be negative. I urge you to reach out to those who need help to survive the mental scavengers… Its like a Snowball effect & how

While there are those who have “taking a shower” at the bottom of their list vs

BBB on repeat - beer bed boxers yum yum yum on the top

Most are missing the house help, Miss a swim to grabbing a cold one… to street food & a jog in the park.

Best time I had were the delights & great delicacies presented by the cooks@home, learning new dishes & cuisines from youtube, I am sure you are busy perfecting that flavor or the Africa shaped to the round shaped roti becoming better house makers…

Then you realize that you have to keep social distancing from your fridge!

Some develop new skills & discover things that you never knew you liked!

Coming out of this lockdown there will be New Avatars, we either will be cows, alcoholics or some super humans with new powers, becoming a painter, speaking French, or maybe some will be forced to leave a bad habit

There will be New looks from default Growing longer Hair to pony tails!!! Nasty

New Challenges to learning Yoga moves… Urgggh that hurts

BC / AC used to be referred Before Christ/After Christ. Going forward it will be referred to Before Corona / After Corona!

Mind is so open that the brain can fall out. Take a break from the Netflix on snooze

Go Loco!

“The Prison without Locks”

Absolute freedom is No ray of sunshine

Some real things happened lately

The unimaginable suddenly turns real, I mean Badshit crazy

Whats the Difference between law & justice?

I can ask you the same question but I already know the answer

I don’t think so I know so!

Story of your life or maybe yours… let me get you on the same page

Best way to make anyone realize something is by sharing Pre & Post pictures

As I write, Anyone who is anybody is on house arrest today

The good news is “till you get paid” (gulp) What you save is what you earn in the Lockdown coz you don’t have much to splurge on

I hope you have a friend which is more than a brother & less than a wife

Keep rolling because this Impediment will be for times to come

You have a recurring Question in your mind… What is the worst that can happen

Are you kiddin me

Its similar to when you figure out shit… Sooner or later you realize that the cause of the jam is not the accident but the reason that everyone likes to watch

Society is a crazy breed! You bet

Travelling fast, travelling light & … You have arrived

History footnote is unbelievable

In Principle its Physical distance Not Social distancing

is this working for you yet

So are you good or are you good?!

All the fresh air & free time will play tricks on you…

some thoughts that flashed in your mind – “No more Dating”

There is more than human relationships

You will never know what you are missing till you try something new

Rules of the 21 Flavors to be untouchable

You are Peeping Behind closed doors… Window Shopping on apps that still might deliver or not

We all are Binge watching, new born book worms. This is killing me

We fear market plunges to price fluctuations

There are No getaways or flights to catch

We still wish to believe that Pizza delivery is safe, huh!

IG House Party invites this weekend. Didn’t you get any… like really

We have come a long way from Partying at Clubs to Bootlegger’s salvation

From Gyms to Home workouts, these are fun. I signed up for it

Those WFH Video Concall Meets are looking good in your shorts

We miss our Mall hopping so we go to room corners to feel a little better

Cinema Gold Class was great but now we settle for Home Theatre with surround sound if you losers got any haha same experience if you got those “lazy boys”

Gone are the days of those Café meets which come down to personal brewing baristas

From online swiping to video dating Mmhmmm…

& for most None Verbal communication is active to take a break from the curfew Phew!

The world as you know it is the world you make around & see from a vantage point. Relive these moments on repeat

Recovery survival if you may. Supremely Fucked! That & some more

It hits You for sure “The Prison without Locks”

Not going anywhere, so cross the bridge now as you have reached

just between you & me there is Much Unfulfilled potential

Your Prerogative, Are these changes New or Imaginary

Tips for them big egos, those expensive Paperweight, Those WFH monkeys

Family Powwow, Let your partner win a round or two… Will help you live peacefully for the next many isolations together ever after

While many are Lonely without someone, Living on a Prayer

Keep a check on that mental health, I mean find the hope in all this madness

Are we Emancipated hmmm… Definitely must have an Appetite for clemency

Its all about who has the stay power! So make the best of it & detox. Focus on Health Family & Friends 

Live this life for some time, take a break because Nature is asking for it

Come back for more
