Which way? This way?

P.S: People with “why don’t you try GPS?” views are forbidden from reading this post.

Life is journey, you should know your destination & all they say, which are famous quotes but what they did not speak about is on “finding the address” to reach the end point. I have problems. Of course we all have, but I am speaking about “address seekers” & “address providers”, yeah “idhe. illi khanditha ondu samasye idhe” situation.

So many (read all) address seekers, stop their vehicles in the “middle” of the road all of a sudden!! Hello losers, kindly show hand signal & stop, halt at the extreme left side of the road, & ask someone around. Its not that you find people & you just stop, no! You park your car, get your ass off the vehicle & ask the address. That’s how it works

& what’s with people, who halt thier vehicle, won’t even bulge from the driver’s seat; yell at top of their voice “24^th main yel baruthe”. Idiot, should the person doing you the favor come near you, smile, say hi & tell you the address? Why being so lazy?

Next worst set of people are the ones who stop at the signal light & ask address. Ones at the left are a little ok ok, but there are ones who are at the middle of the road, asking someone next to them which way to go, when the signal turns green thereby blocking the entire traffic behind them.

Too much worst are the ones who horn, & horn like crazy from behind, & if when you leave way, over take & come by your window (still driving remember) & ask the address. They totally freak me out. So stupid, it’s like they want to travel in the108 free ambulance & for that we will do anything idea. You die, why kill us?

If you are lost, almost going to die, & there is just one lady who could tell you the address & save you, still don’t. Never ask “a woman” address, period. Mikidhu nimge biTidhu.

In Chennai, actually in TN, if they say, go straight & take a right, then left, then left, you do the opposite. You go straight, take left, then right & again right. Voila, you will reach perfectly. But if you make a mistake of following what they say, you could be looping; that too infinite.

You hear to the address & never watch. As in hear the directions but never see where the hand moves, it will surely confuse you. The person says “take right” & bends his hand towards left. Always. So just stick to the oral way.

It’s a no-risk to ask the auto drivers, provided yours & his vehicles share the same state registration number. If your vehicle number says “KA” and his auto number starts with “TN”, you are gone. It’s like Guindy flyover. Round & round & round, uff thale suthu.

Also never go near a bus stop, where there is a huge crowd yelling the place you wanna go “Bangalore Bangalore Bangalore”. Chances that they might think, you are putting seat to your car & ask “200 saaar, please drop me” (Personal experience err not me Pati’s)

Then there are certain awesome people, who when asked address say “follow me” & take you there. They have taken “help strangers” advice from their teachers at nursery a bit too seriously. 

Oh got a call, someone calling to ask address. Ta
