NRI
A: Hey, you know my friend is back to India!
B: Oh cool! Is he a friend from your school days?
A: Yeah, a close friend of mine. He has returned after many years. However, I see he has a new attitude. He calls himself an NRI.
B: Awww... that happens..its normal. Dont worry about it.
A: No dude, it gets on my nerves when he throws his airs all around. I dont like it that way. He has changed a lot!!
B: Oh come on, dont be a kid. You know all NRIs have this strange attitude problem.
A: But you must know where he is back from. Do you know which country he has this NRI status from?
B: ??
A: Nepal.
B: **?$##**
I couldn't help but laugh out. Just couldn't stop myself.

Selective Vegetarianism Theory
Ok. Im not bothered with it (looks like I'm though). However, all the bile and sarcasm that my system can produce is spewed at those egg-consuming vegetarians who stay away from an egg on a specific day of the week like a Tuesday or a Saturday but relish it on other days.
I have met loads of such people. They eat eggs on a Monday, but will remain light years away from an egg on a Tuesday (because they are vegetarians, do you hear? They are not non-vegetarians).
You must ask them this:
Can you eat a cabbage on a Monday?
Answer: Yes, its veg.
Can you eat an egg on a Monday?
Answer: Yes, its veg.
Can you eat cabbage on a Tuesday?
Answer: Yes, its veg.
Can you eat an egg on a Tuesday?
Answer: No….I mean..You know…its like…..aa..uu..ummm….
The bottomline:
Egg is a veg food on a Monday, but turns non-veg on a Tuesday, returns to its veg classification on Wednesday, again turns non-veg on a Saturday.
Therefore, if they can have something which is both a veg and a non-veg food at the same time (let me remind you its the same egg which turns non-veg immediately the next day), can you call them vegetarians any more? Doesn’t this make them non-vegetarians?
Tell them this, and they will give you looks as if you’ve committed a blasphemy!
I think humans remain strict and authentic to their beliefs, but its the eggs which have split-personality disorders of being veg one day and turning non-veg the other day.
Kudos to the proponents of the Selective Vegetarianism Theory.
