People are born Selfish. Did I hear you call me a 'cynic'?. But being selfish is being human, ain't it?
And a lot of it resonates from the instincts of survival. So why then is selfish person labeled in a derogatory manner. Every instant of your life is being spent trying to please your warped soul, either mundanely or subconsciously. At the end of this blog I will have posted it to satiate my guilt at some level. And I would have succeeded to a massive extent (since I belong to the lowest of the kind in the human guilt ladder). Selfishness flows from one event to another like Mamta Banerjee and her political manifesto.
But this talk is too intellectual. Coming to more mundane materialistic things, a lot of words and events have stemmed from the self related concept. These words are tied with the essence of selfishness.
'Justification' - Done to defend a well accepted act of retardness you just committed. It could include throwing a dog in the gutter, who bit you because you tried to harass him during his mid road meal.
'Sex' - it is the justification of the urge to excessively spend that which is refurnish-able.
'Beer' - it is sex with Malted Barley and Hops. And some more!
'Wine' - it is the beer of the French who thought 'grape' was French for barley.
Bandra Worli Sea Link - it is the caber(n)et performed to the gallery of the highest bidders in Mumbai
November 26, 2008 - the last pillar of a bridge to crumble which made the superfluously abused term 'Spirit of Mumbai' redundant.
Kheema Pav - a complete but never ending saga which unlike the previous one leaves you on a pleasant note. Eaten to forget about existence.
Drinking and Driving - the meat of discussion at gatherings so as to sound concerned or an anecdotal story of guts and glory. Ame, Llo, Meg and Pun will agree.
Tattoos - a Taboo. some say.
Like I said, the materialistic to the cardinal and the seemingly innocuous are all contained in the Self.
