If meeting different persons in your favorite hobby, no
place would be better than DELHI METRO.
Welcome Aboard!
Sleeping Beauties:
Well they certainly look cute at
times. But when their wagging heads land on your shoulders or your morning gets
a jump start with the snoring sounds, then probably you will start hating
mankind (well of course some of us who are excellent in producing such
melodies).
Gate Charmers:
Fevicol ka jod hai bhai, tutega nahi!
The ever famous jingle hits my
nervous system every time I come across them. They will occupy the nearest
place to the gate and would not move an inch as if they have been glued to the
place. The fact that their stations may be the farthest one seems to be
irrelevant. They would block the passage of every passenger and would even not
feel ashamed after multiple announcements of metro authorities to keep distance
and not create inconvenience.
Beauty Queens:
Some of us want to keep everything at a hand’s distance, be
it their personal parlor. They would search for the cozy corner and start their
beauty parade.
Pushovers:
Life is a race. Didn’t we hear it often?
Some of us take this rather too seriously.
They are always in hurry and would even push and roll you to reach the
escalator faster.
Loudspeakers:
Some of us want to know the whole
world how obscene vocabulary we have got. They will keep on talking on the
highest of the pitch and would even not stop after receiving the repulsive stares
form the fellow passengers.
The English lovers:
And then there are some who loves
to flaunt their sophisticated English vocabulary and fake foreign accents.
“You know what she did?” “Which
is the next stop?” “I am going to shopping this weekend, will you come?”
PDAs
The ultimate Laila- Majnus of the
era. It might seem impossible to even pass air between them, let alone separate
them. The fellow passengers have to divert their route but they won’t give a
pass. Public display of affection is the one job they surely excel at.
Music Buffs
Foot tapping and heads swaying,
here comes the ultimate music lovers. Some might be wearing colorful ear plugs
while other buffs would be flaunting the big headphones. They will make sure
that the others get a sneak-peak at their playlist.
Is anyone interested?
Readers
No matter how many hurried feet
enter the sacred transporting machine, they will have their heads glued in
their books.
A thought that every Indian might have heard in childhood
days hits my skull every time when I find one of them,” Padhoge likhoge banoge
nawab.”
Wishful thinking, isn’t it!
The Seat Crashers
The third world war would surely
happen over acquiring the prestigious Metro Seats.
These otherwise harmless
creatures (hopefully) suddenly turn into maniacs in race to grab the seat no
matter what is the cost. As soon as the metro stops and the gates open, they
will push the fellow passengers in hurry to occupy the seat.
The Creepy Ones
And of course our own versions of
JAMES BOND, who will irritate the hell out of you by applying their best owned
skills. They will keep you staring from the moment you enter the car and even
keep on hanging to every word you utter in between. Well no you have not done
any miraculous discovery, it’s just those creepy fellows who are in a habit of
scaring the hell out of normal humans.
