i am no longer on orkut and i don deny that..
its a crime of course, i thought i d never get caught but alas i stand now without an orkut profile !
out of the 10 fellas who slammed me for commitin this sin only one actually noticed that my profile was no longer there on her friends list, the otehrs i had to enlighten 'em myself for varying reasons (none of which was to say i am officially unorkuted) .. i wonder if it's irony or a paradox.. i don mind if its neither.. hmm
one fine sunday morning after nearly 3 hours of pointless profile surfing .. (and the cliched yet mandatory joke) .. i mean the my surfin was profile not the pointless..
err...
ok
yea so after 3 hours i decided this is not done... maneesh madambath is better sutied more constrcutive work than analyse insipid lives ( read profiles) and their scraplings .. and so i clicked the dreaded option .. i was surprisingly confused.. never thought so much even when learnin to ride a bike.. i guess thats the reason i still dont know how to ride one.. hmm orkut has taught me valuable lessons in life... and no its not jus bout biking
the page was kind enough to let me know that it is slow in its work.. and my account will be deleted after a day or two.. i was relieved.. or maybe not.. but some feeling which is thoda difficult to put into words made their way through to my temple and my vein started hittin crunches .. it touched 50 at last count..
i proceeded to make the necessary announcements wagera wagera about my impedning deletion from the networked world.. " last day account deleted" my profile very proudly read
7 days later my profile was still proudly standing reading -last day account deleted... i had conquered orkut.. they cudn remove me \m/ .. but why?
i wanted to feel some feeling.. i thought embarrassment wud be a good option but all i could rummage from my closet of feelings was one of utter confusion .. scratching my head more out of the desire to scratch something than any other .. i wondered what to do now.. it was then that orkut taught me its roots are ingrained in Indian bureaucracy. It had left its job half done.. because while a good friend continued nagging me saying "why hav u written account deleted when u haven't".. orkut very conveniently removed all forms of access to my account..
i wonder if they know of my knack of not attracting much attention or what.. must have thought ok we'll stop him from logging in n let his account remain.. whos gonna remove all those 2000 odd scraps n a dozen stupid snaps and testimonials.. he ll never know.. haha orkut i came to know.. balls to u!!
i had to do soemthing.. either accept defeat n get back to orkutting.. or find a way to get my face out .. coz even after the 10th day i was gladly smiling through one of my manipulated faces saying last day account deleted.. days on orkut land were apparently long .. wrong...
and i did figure out a way .. :)

as i mentioned earlier in one of our chats.. you very stupid ways of doing things at times..
i still dont see the need of deleting an orkut account for being constructive..
but of course am not tryin to state that is a necessity..
but what the hell .. you get my point..
PS - congratulations for getting over orkutmania.. india is proud of you
