The Upright College

When this college found out that one of the professor shared a pic of herself in a swimsuit they hastened to not only terminate but sue her for damages as  she was “corrupting” her students…

The progressive liberal college that we are

Hey look, this professor has gone too far

Being on social media in a swim suit

Deservedly she’s now got the boot

In moral policing we’ve just raised the bar

Let’s All Be Birthing People

Where else again but Japan! A minister responsible for reversing  the falling birth rate got hold of a pregnancy suit that weighed a few kgs so he could understand how women felt during pregnancy, speak of empathy. Hey,  what is the plan of action though

In charge to increase Japan’s birth rate

The minister hopes to change their fate

Boy, he was so cute

Wearing a pregnancy suit

And urging everyone let’s all do it mate

The Compliant Babu

In Bihar a school teacher was reprimanded by an administrative officer for wearing traditional attire – Kurta and Pyjama – to school instead of trousers. What else do we expect from babus (bureaucrats) who continue to have a colonial hangover…

This is absolutely not done sire 

To be in school in traditional attire

Thus the burra sahib spake

And said kindly he would not take

What would disgust the lords of the shire

The Uncool Influencer’s Antics


Probably I will not understand what goes on in the minds of these “influencers” who think that their decadent behaviour is kind of cool.

Lying down & Smoking while In a plane

And drinking  inthe the middle of a lane

Thinking it to be really cool

This influencer is just a fool 

What else to say for he is but a society’s bane 

The Man-chest-er Acquisition

I penned a limerick after seeing Elon Musk’s tweet that he was buying Manchester United but realising something was amiss I checked the follow-on tweet that it was but a joke and hence had to modify the last line…

When the target acquisition hit a wall 

He decided to change  the port of call

Saying a  new target sighted

And got everyone  united

The man-with a big-chest, er, is fooling us all

India Marching On

As we celebrate 75 years of independence the future is bright but the journey is long to get to a middle income country status which, I have been hoping, is a milestone that will be achieved in this generation.

The Prime minister in his Independence Day address from the ramparts of Red Fort implored people to aim big and have pride in the past and put forth the goal of being a developed nation when India turns 100 as a free country…

Today, at 75 as the nation awakens 

From the ramparts the leader reckons

To dream big we aren’t at all shy

And we’ll have our head held high

For at hundred a developed nation beckons
