  • ‘Baap baap hota hai’- 7 lies we tell our parents assuming they’d never find out!

    ‘Baap baap hota hai’- 7 lies we tell our parents assuming they’d never find out!

    There’s no denying the fact that the most important people in our lives are the members of our family. They are also the ones who drive us crazy….like all the time and it’s not easy to convince them for everything we decide on doing on a day-to-day basis. Sometimes we think we might have fooled them with our lame excuses but that’s not true. They just know how to play along very well, after all they are our parents and they too went through a similar lifestyle (or so they’d like to think). Here are a few common lies we tell our parents assuming that they don’t know the truth.

    1)      Lying about all the shopping you do

    When you’re trying to avoid having a conversation on how many clothes you already have while carrying those big shopping bags in front of your parents, the interrogation part is the hardest! How many times have you told them sh*t like the stuff was on sale (slashing half the prices in your head) making them believe it’s the ultimate truth?

    2)      Lying that you’re not drunk

    You think you might have fooled them by telling them that you’re not drunk when you reach home so late trying to act as sober as you could be; believe us, parents can sniff alcohol from miles away, even if you’ve had just one drink! Best solution for it is to come clean and minimize all the drama by being honest.

    3)      Covering up for the nasty stuff

    Somehow parents dig deep down in your stuff and find out what you’ve been hiding from them, under the sheets or in between the pile of clothes in your cupboard. Just when they do, those things suddenly belong to your friend who forgot it when he/she was here the last time!

    4)      Lying about birthdays

    When you make up a friend’s birthday each time you go out, be it your close friend or an imaginary one. Isn’t it strange how ‘Rahul’s’ birthday parties happen thrice a year or how all of a sudden you have so many new friends? – Mom’s remember EVERYTHING!

    5)      Lying about your crush

    When you like someone…..a lot and you don’t want your parents to know about it, your life’s a mess! Especially when you’re living with them. Your constant daily struggle includes lying to your folks about plans with random friends and looking for that isolated corner in the house to have those late night phone calls! 

    tumblr_mrrt13tFB71sn9j6no1_500Source

    6)      The ‘I’m so tired and sleepy’ lie

    We all need some alone time but sometimes parents don’t understand that and hence we tell them that the day was hectic and we are tired. You think they might not know what you do behind those closed doors but beware parents have this x-ray vision and they know exactly what you’re upto!

    6Source

    7)      Lying about money

    When you try to explain them where you exhausted all your pocket money and how you’d need a little more for the month ahead! Damn, life’s hard!

  • Net neutrality update: First victory for net neutrality! Flipkart opts out of Airtel Zero

    Net neutrality update: First victory for net neutrality! Flipkart opts out of Airtel Zero

    While the debate over net neutrality in India continues, E-Commerce giant Flipkart that was earlier supporting the Airtel Zero plan have now opted out of it.

    Net neutrality

    Airtel Zero plans to be an open marketing platform offering app-access to its customers at zero charge required the app makers have registered with Airtel Zero to provide this access. In such a scenario, start-ups all over the country have been crying foul due to increased expenses and larger companies taking the cake. Moreover, the policy has been coming off as limiting free-internet access to one and all.

    In this scenario Flipkart, that was earlier supporting Airtel Zero, has now opted out of it sticking to net neutrality.

    Justin Bieber got kicked out of Coachella Music Festival!

    Justin Bieber was allegedly stopped by security and asked to leave while trying to get backstage for Drake’s headline show at the Coachella Music Festival in California. According to sources, the security stopped Bieber from entering backstage to prevent him from getting bombed by his fans. Bieber, being the enfant terrible that he is, told the guards that he was personally invited by Drake and got into a heated argument with the Coachella security. He was then asked to leave from the area immediately.

    Soon after being kicked out of the Coachella Music Festival where he was spotted with Kedall Jenner of the Kardashian fame, Bieber instagrammed this picture from Europe with the caption “I just landed in Europe, shopping bags I’m a tourist”.

    This isn’t the first time J-Beebs has been kicked out of a public place. He was thrown out of a movie theatre back in 2010 and was shown the door at a bar in 2013 for breaking rules and misbehaving with the security.

    If you still don’t know what net neutrality is you don’t deserve to be online. Net neutrality, in simple words, is a concept of providing internet as an equal service with equal access to everyone. As of now, there is no law in India about Net Neutrality but if we don’t support the cause, the internet will be broken into smaller fragments and you’ll have to purchase every little fragment separately to gain access to it (believe us, it’s coming your way soon).

    So think about this, you pay for the connection, you pay for your favourite websites and chances are that you might have to pay to gain access to some special sections of those websites too. As the men at AIB have righty pointed out, internet is the only place today where everyone is equal and this must not change.

    Watch this video by AIB to get this amazing explanation and log on to www.savetheinternet.in to support net neutrality. The internet needs you! The deadline is 24th April so leave everything and go save the internet now.
