Stupid Cupid

Tired of merely watching, Big Brother is now bent on throwing rice at you:

"Those found dating, expressing their love, cosying up to each other would be married off," [Sri Rama Sene founder, Pramod] Muthalik, who has been released on bail in the Mangalore pub attack case, said.

The outfit has formed ‘five teams’ which would roam around with a hidden camera on Feb 14. A priest would accompany the team which will have a turmeric stub and 'mangalsutra'.


Sounds like a post-Slumdog Mike Judge treatment? Wait, there's more:

Muthalik said, "as a citizen of the country, it is my democratic duty to put an end to anything that is obscene... [but] being a brahmachari does not mean I do not understand love."

(Read the whole article here.)

This guy needs to be given his own talk show. Or replace Captain Stubing:







(sorry about the pasty rush job, but I just couldn't resist -- this was too funny a mental image not to Gimpify)

there are so many things about this, but i'll just say, gee, the family lawyers would have a field day.

and what.. he believes only in hindu love? tch. so.. close-minded.

Close-minded, and violently so.

(I was thinking, you could so easily write a creepy motel-thriller based on Muthalik. He even has the 'tache for it.)

Ok, I should stop being frivolous about this.

BTW, a lot of protests and anti-intolerance marches due to take place over the next week or so. Will be posting heavily on it soon. Stay tuned.

ooh. heh, i was reading the comments on the IE page. quite funny.

as one put it, hallmark/archies could have put him put to it to make ppl vehemently celebrate it.. and buy more cards.

Oh, I haven't seen the comments yet. On my way there now.

Hallmark must have a wedding surplus left over, post the December season. Good plan.

someone should follow the team around and distribute 'I went out with my bf/gf on valentine's day and got married and all i got was this stupid tee-shirt' tee shirts.

eyefry said...

Bleddy. Tee shirts are against our sacred Hindu culture.
