KFC vs MacD

Veg Burger at KFC (in Forum Mall to be specific) sucks big time. I took the crispy one and if that was a crispy one, God have mercy on the normal one.

MacD wins hands down. It is not on thin air that they have built such a fortune. They rock !!

Never heard of KFC. What is it?

Been to MacD only once. And I am in no mood to pay them another visit unless I am with some chick who loves MacD. And even then, I'd go only because it'll cost me less than what it might cost me otherwise. I think it sucks just as much.

I dont think the fortune they have made has anything to do with the quality. It was about the idea. Now if you copy the idea and make the fortune, you either bring some revolutionary innovation to the existing idea or enhance the quality. Otherwise, forget about it!

Who has the time to eat burgers anyway! :p

Are tum ne KFC ka naam nahi suna? KFC is Kentucky Fried Chicken, a chain famous for its fried chicken. Kuch saal pahle there was a lot of hulla gulla over their cruelity to chickens and demands to ban them. Also Bird Flu ka bhi chakker tha.
Yes! MacD has been quite an innovative company (though Burgers existed long before them) and I cannot claim that they are the best since I have not tried many others but still, their Big Mac ! it suits my palate :)

some 8-10 year ago, some local kannadas had vandalised the shop at brigade road. They wanted MNCs to go. Later they wanted kannad caption on the shop..

Finished "Interpreter of Maladies" today. Considering the fact that it has only 9 stories, it should have been a one day affair but I never managed to take out that one day. Instead I read it 1-2 stories a day after every 3-4 days. Now that I finally finished it with a marathon of 4 stories today, I think I enjoyed it much more by reading in parts, taking time to reflect on the stories as I read them. So the next obvious thing: the best story on the collection. Well I'll rather not chose one best but I liked "Temporary Measure", "Interpreter of Maladies", "Sexy" and "Third and the Last Continent". A very striking feature of the stories is that they are very rich in details. Unlike Arundhati Roy, whose plush language is a treat to read, or just behold for that matter, Jhumpa is all about details. Specially the details about food !! I could almost taste it in my mouth. And think about my plight when I had to go and eat mess foo...

Do nightmares qualify for dreams?

[ With due apologies to Philip K. Dick ] For some days now, every morning I find a bunch of emails in my inbox from some friends who are graduating from IIT this year and the mails bring back so many memories, happy and sad !! It was around 2 years back when I was also busy writing such mails to all the people I knew. The world still seemed very small and every fellow IITian a close friend. It was beyond imagination that I wouldn't keep in touch with that guy living at the end of my wing whom I hardly had any interaction with. I wanted to get every address, every phone number, every email id. Yahoo groups were formed, mailing lists were created and with all the fan fare we marched out to the real world. And yes ! I also got all those "Friends' " episodes, all those songs, all those movies. How could I ever live without them? Today after 2 years, I have never talked to or mailed to R, my roommate for 3 years. I have little idea how M is doing,my next door neighbour for...

The wooden horse of reservation !

One thing common to almost all the front line pro-quota arguments is an image of one affluent, well educated, greedy boy and another of the most underprivileged, oppressed guy you can imagine and as you can very well guess, the first one carries the label upper cast and the other one OBC/SC/ST. Please note the second label, it is not SC/St or OBC. It is SC/ST/OBC. This is an ad that has sold its product like no other. It sells you reservation. In oppressed, it manages to create anger, in well to do upper cast, it manges to create a sense of guilt and they all buy the idea of reservation that would help the underprivileged kid get his due share from the bad guy. And the the get busy, get along with life, bothering little to ask what happened to the poor kid. I don't need to tell you what happened, you already know if you care to think beyond your false sense of having done something. It is the same story that is repeated any number of times everyday on every red light crossing of...
