Anatomia de "guy" factor - Chapter 2

Well the series is going to talk about "guy" and its related "guyness" quotient. Before i start let me be honest with the fact that a.k.a Anu malik style, i
have ripped off the concept and words from Dave Barry's book combining with my actual anecdotes and experiences.
I am here to talk about an average guy and not about men which dave barry states that "Men" word itself is too serious not too mention "manhood" and "manly".
Also Chapter 1 is actually under construction as it is besotted with too many raw expletives and needs trimming. So lets start with this chapter. Shall we ??
I am making a statement for the benefit of fair sex ," Never assume that a guy really understands one's feelings and need in a relationship. "
And at this point i introduce my hero named "Kala Anna" (name changed) showing off his guy characteristics. He is one real kewl (cooler form of cool) guy.
The time was regular lunch hour in my very regular office on a very regular day where our
regular gang has just taken regular food and was boistorously eating the regularly horrible canteen food.
I will like to introduce our sensitive "Izzie the girlie" who had a bad dance ankle and is sitting directly opposite to "Kala Anna". The regular manager bashing and non-sensical jokes are flying all around.
Izzie mulling over her food states "My ankle is hurting real bad"
Kala Anna "Oh ! really , by the way this food is yeuck "
Izzie "hey Anna, dont feel like getting up, could you get me some daal (pulses)"
Kala Anna "Uh oh !!" perking up his ears to some of the interesting comment passed by other ppl .The momentarily raised topic died off soon.
Izzie after a while "Hey Anna, yaar , here is the bowl , please get me the daal from the food counter"
Kala Ana pretending not hearing the words looks at me "dude , she is telling something to u "
People suddenly getting interested in the antics
Izzie laughing but in annoyed tone "Anna , i am talking to u and cant u do me a favour, i really dont want to walk"
Kala Anna again laughing and simultaneously trying to push me "Is it really ? dude cant u hear ?" getting back to food
Again some moments passed with smiles all around, at which our Izzie the lady now all of a sudden without warning stands up and walks off towards the food counter
Raised expression everywhere , our kewl dude and some other ppl like me momentarily taken aback tries to call "Hey wait ! Izzie."
But Izzie just rushes off , Me and Anna just glance at each other in helplessness and resume with our food
Izzie comes back and silently starts sipping on her daal. An awkward silence has just hung up on the table.
Our dude getting enough boldness tries to pacify her and starts "Hey Izzie, i was just joking re, just -----"
At this point Izzie the girlie breaks down with tears streaming fast down her cheeks and our dude all startled , his eyes popping out "WHAT ?" and as if ashamed he just silently attacks the food again with eyes fixedly at his plate.



So , let me explain what i meant with sharing this anecdote. While it is difficult to speculate into actual thought process of the Izzie , she might be having lot of hurt feelings that people dont understand her, they always make fun, there is no good relationship, etc etc and lot more other possible ramifications, the sum total Anna's thought over this incident would be "Huh? (lot of startled expression attached)! was the daal really so good today ?". Women have lot of trouble accepting this fact that Guys do not understand about other's feeling in a relationship and not be sensitive like theydo. Despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary they still cling on some nonexistent hope that their man would be sweet and really understand them completely. For heaven's sake mother nature has not made us like that ! Complain it to her !

Our guy brain is inappropriate to think much, it is basically an analytical, problem solving type of organ which like things to be in quantifiable so as to be measured.


A guy in a relationship is like an ant standing on top of truck tyre. The ant is aware, on a very basic level, that something large is here, but he cannot dimly comprehend what this thing is, or the nature of his involvement with it. And if the truck starts moving and the tyre starts to roll, the ant will sense that something important is happening, but right up until he rolls around to the bottom and is squashed into a small black dot, (WHAM !!!) , the only distinct thought that will form in his tiny brain will be and I double quote "Huh?"

Your 'guy factor' posts are quite entertaining not to mention eye opening :)
