Different Strokes for Different Folks

 

“I ain’t no sweet dream but a hell of a night”

 

I write an EPIC Story

1 Tale Stand. Get a front row seat, A Play Book if you may from the Horse’s mouth we call Blue

 

In the gospel ways universally... Italian saying

“The true sweetness of wine is one flavour”

So the Story is Sweet like Wine if you understand the Malbec!

 

I know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy, well now in the future all 7 do

 

Its 1 AM & I can’t sleep... i toss n turn, Nah fuck it! Hop out of bed in my cool wear & head to the busy night life downstairs

Voyage of Time to the HouseCafe

After the Bagpacking, soul searching, he needed to burn the midnight oil

 

Blue enters “Gulabi Café”

It was written with Bright Pink Neon Lights on the Wall

“Destination Nowhere”

Do you want a thrill?

Do you want a memory?

Do you want a lover?

 

& his ears started ringing...

Words like a poem

Noise like music

It sounded like a song

 

Will you round with me

People were playing poker, moving to the music in their zones from 2 Step till Break Dancing

It was nothing less than a Broadway show... you can only experience it

 

The funniest thing happened…

Remix order - Hot Fudge, Local Tiramisu, Piece of my pie. I mean give him a lolly! Looked delicious though

 

Suddenly he heard a voice, he turns to see 2 guys talking... with a lady in the middle

Put the mug down & step away from the bar! Speaks the “The Man Child”…

The other guy said “watch & learn”

You might be interested in my Boyish good looks & stupid charm

 

Lady: A little late in the game for that

Forward much she said, I met a Boy version of you, By far my Favourite,

then I grew up!!!

I don’t want a bad boy! I want him... duuu I am with my boyfriend

But thats just me,

 

she said you are too cheesy

Blue jumps in: maybe I missed much but I always thought everyone likes Pizza

She said: that don’t impress me much

Blue said: You are figuring that out just now

Booo fuckin hooo! It was like a Western, I mean cowboys and shit... Easy Partner!

None of your Business!

Drama in & out of the... Saloon was it

Bushwacked

 

The other guy gave a oneliner - I won’t get it, so I won’t miss it

Blue goes Attaboy, sure set an example

Some are Listeners while others are Yappers

“Kung Fu means Supreme skill with hard work” & I witnessed that in action

He said: No Way... Blue said: Way

 

This world only has one thing in common “selfLove” with that Thought...

He pours himself a Grande

Noticing the performance Joins a few more guys...

ChitChat, that’s a thing!

Anyhooo

 

They said 7

I said shots

They said bottles

I said sold!

Put it on my Tab… Shouted out

 

7 Kooks collide - Alias as always

Nocturnal Burner

Light Sleeper

Early Riser

PartyPacker

insomniac Owl

Monkey Hopper

1st Mid-Nighter

 

They go round playing Sin Telling

Round & Around we go...

What sins have you committed today?!

 

it doesn’t matter how things are if you meet new people coz, you have

No Formalities, No Commitments &

No Complicated answer to a simple question

Like snow in the desert

 

The story continues, wait for it...

 

So Long!

Time Traveller in Torn Shoes

Time Traveller in Torn Shoes

 

“When life is full of nonsense you make sense of humour”

 

Grab the Best seats in the house. Worst of its kind, meaning the best

The truth, the whole truth & nothing but the truth

WW!!!, Voices in the distance; I am scared, the other said me too

History news flash – the digest version of WWII when in 1944 Ami friendly Troops stormed Schweissfussindianer soldiers (German soldiers called themselves, meaning ‘Indians with sweaty feet’) on the Beach of Normandy that day, who were powered by a candy that helped win the war, it was a small effort however a big day! A beautiful storyline we always must know about Hershey’s Choco Bar. This event put an end to the 100 Million lives lost in the world war!

 

“Big or small You are always making history”

 

Ya thats a SnoozeFest, piece of trivia you can sling over coffee...

 

What world problems have you been solving

Numero Uno - Plain as day, think things over

Everyone likes a story where someone struggled to become the princess, its usually the best seller like a fairytale

real things have happened

they call it a tale, we call it life

 

Jimmy ties his shoes & left quicker than a heartbeat

You can’t run away from things all your life, but then running in Nikes would make it easy

The Protagonist of the story is better known as Salt n Peppa, a Broken old Boy!

he would call himself ‘More than a boy less than an old fashioned Man’

he was a dying breed, they don’t make em as they used to

grew much faster… then stayed young forever, who we call a young adult

He says quote” You think I am a hooligan due to my shoes”

The nice girls used to say “You think I am civil due to my dress”

The difference is night & day

 

with a bottle of Jack in his hand, Jimmy blabbers to his pal at the bar while he does his timeless standup… travelled to the past, “You & me just smaller...”

When you hear an Irishman Speaking French, “Too old for this shit”

Adapting through ages, a little bit better than I used to be

I told my Offspring, “Lad” a life time ago… when you would find people smoking cigars in the courtroom!

But then he was Burning from both sides

 

I am angry & tired but then someone has to…

Drowning on dry land

Where once lived love, Now haunts with Demons

when your heart breaks your brain starts working

 

The kid asked Jimmy do you miss the village, while Jimmy responds

‘what I miss the most is being young’

 

Time is a luxury which you have is v limited

Leave it better than when you found it

As long as it takes, while you come & go

Jimmy asked rhetorically, Good pep talk?!

The kid said, you are a real brick

 

you come to an uncertain crossroads

What feels real is not always good

What feels fun is not always bad

What feels right is not always nice

What feels wrong is not always ugly

 

i walk alone, a road less travelled... My suitcase & guitar are the only family

if you were in my shoes only then one would come to know the path I travelled, oh & how it has made me the person you see

 

what you lookin at! I ain’t a pole dancer

The Future is Now

Make like a tree & leave

She wants Heels but He wants Meals

She wants Heels but He wants Meals

 

I Reckon

Breaking your heart in the best way is an Art

Go on call me whatever you want but I like to be called....

“Arjun the Storyteller”

 

Trick or treat! Divulge as I do

Believe me for you can cut me open like a Melon, that...

After every few years, your priorities change in Life

The fun-fuckin-fact is that some things come back to you in the cycle through time, just like a bi-cycle. When you’re a kid you always want a cycle. Then you move to a Car however when you’re sick of the city life & boredom kicks in to the lack of exercise, what you do is get yourself that mean cycle you always wanted!

Similarly I find it in a pony...  Duuu a “PonyTail”

 

Time is all we have & Time is of essence, you learn more when you come of age that teaches you through paranoia, the crazy thing is that the biggest problem in your life becomes “losing your hair”!

To the 2nd Biggie will be staying in shape... “Energy needed” for that matter, while money comes & goes

 

It is all in the mind when in some games of life, if you Lose you Win! A few pounds maybe or some bedroom sports if you know what I mean

It still is never true for Hair... Dipshit!

Give me a Pulitzer already! Haha, When you are dreaming not thinking...

 

2 guys talking in the Gym

I met myself & guess what... I enjoyed my company! Spend some time with yourself you might find the person you were searching for all your life

The other guy Alias Roy, a Virgin! Clueless Bastard was drop dead gorgeous, IQ of Einstein. He is taking tips for his hot date with Dolores tonight

Never kissed a Blonde because his coach told him to stay away from Pom Pom dolls. Roy gets the wisdom, with a sigh “ok then”

Booyah “Break a Leg”

 

Roy in his tight Daks picks up Dolores,

The Jock Mumbles to break the ice - My coach always used to say

Never drink iced coffee in the morning!

Always take a shower after you break a sweat!

Never go out with a girl who doesn’t laugh at your stupid jokes!

You stick to those 3 things & everything else is Cream cheese...

Darn boy! you gonna sleep like a baby

 

The foxy chic responds, my trainer used to say

Never Drink Coffee after 7

Never kiss a guy on the 1st Date!

Brush your teeth after breakfast!

Try to compliment a guy & you won’t ever sleep at night! haha

Then you look like me.

 

Fancy candle light, bottle of Chablis on ice, Evocative Mmhmmm

After the Entrée she went Bohemian on him, I mean Veritable poetic types

The Lust that transcends into love in the mere fabric of life itself...

The dude looking at the desert section said, is that on the menu

I will go for Bavarian Choco ice cream

Stellar Performance!

He lacked Charm while she forgot her Needs

 

Futile & the conversation went to a different tangent

They loved to hear their own Voice

So they come to a common ask - what you want? Meddling right to it

They both wanted Freedom in their own respective ways

Being true to themselves they answer...

 

The world changed from the medieval times when you died young for honour, hell nowadays people “run for fun” which nobody could even imagine in those times

She looks gorgeous in those Stilettos which are “lit-e-rally” killing her while seeking comfort in life

Running all day ain’t fun when you get blisters the size of Minnesota

It’s criminal, Put her out of that misery

He hunts for Love while he forgot to Love himself

The joker is too lazy to make effort that he has nothing but himself to adore.

The Sexy one you so desire expects nothing less, so you gotta play it to the bone!

 

“Forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest”

The one you wanna sleep with might not be the one you wanna marry!

Just because you want Goodness while it “isn’t fun”

You don’t say?!

 

What you kids say, Show don’t tell

Au Revoir

Papi in a Porsche & Pocket full of Change

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 3rd 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

arjunthestoryteller.blogspot.com
Every Last Sunday* New post* Same link*
Read > Forward > Follow > REPEAT

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 2nd 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
