Conversation in the cafeteria today:
Gal 1: Did you see that Reshmi’s salwar? What UGH color!!!
Gal 2: What color was it?
Gal 2: It is was such a horrible shade of red …dunno how to describe it.
Me: Like MS Word colors ?
Gal1: Exactly!!!
Gal 2: *ewwww* Horrible!!!!!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteand
FIRST POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kickassso:Thanks for the first comment :))
ReplyDeleteFor your sake I hope the Microsoft guys don't read this!!!
ReplyDelete=))
Will look forward for more Girlie conversations..!
ReplyDeleteLOL...
ReplyDeletetypical girlie talk..
ReplyDeleteloved it..:))
bewildered!! ;D
ReplyDeletehmmm... what is ms word red???
ReplyDelete...all ms word colors suck! good one!
ReplyDeletehmmm..well atleast you identified Gal 3 :)
ReplyDeleteA curtailed item, with the same clout!
ReplyDeleteRed...
ReplyDeleteAny shade of red is .. voaaaackkk...
Was the G3 a judge for spelling competition or anything?
ReplyDeleteGee! From now on I will think twice before ever opening MS Word again. Galti se "mera waala red" khul gaya to!! :(
ReplyDeleteI would also second that for some of the themes in wordpress. Though wordpress is better than blogger where ease of use is concerned, the presentation formats of blogger score over wordpress.
ReplyDeleteThis is also the way many people describe politicians.
Anon: Pray for me :p
ReplyDeleteAnoop: Sure!
Neihal: :)) Guess you got the joke he he
HnL: We have a way of expressing things dont we? :)) Thank you doc!
mathew and inder: MS Word Font colors are eye sores, kapiche? :))
Anon 2: Very true, it is truly horrible and I am kinda spoilt with the palette in Photoshop and Corel :)
mind curry: hmmm?
sreejith: Thank buddy!!! :)
Koutilya: And the MS Word Red is the worst :))
Fleiger; Didn't get you!
Asterix: LOL, mera wala red is definitely not MS Word Red!!
Hiren: Blogger is definitely more pleasing to the eye than Wordpress. I would describe politicians as a bunch of MS Word Font colors..horrible!!! :))
All the discussions about colors are greek and latin for me... I am colour blind!!!
ReplyDeleteUnnikrishnan G Nair.
Well, when you said MS Word red, the only image in front of my color-ignorant male eyes was the red colour you get when MS Word underlines the spelling-mistakes. Is that the one you are talking about?
ReplyDeleteI so hope poor Reshmi will not read this post :(
ReplyDeleteI remember having a girlie conversation in college, and the victim of our conversation was unfortunately seated behind us... thankfully sleeping!!
Ms PPT colors anyone?
ReplyDeleteOur cos paid a UK based agency a few million euros to work out our new "brand" color scheme (also called essence for all those who dont like to scheme).
I like the colors now.
Any guesses who we are?
I am a simple man. The color of money has its appeal.
some MS guys HAVE read this! THEY might conjure up an unhandled-exception-hex on you! MS Word Rox and so do the colors! uhm...at least the ones on Office 12 do...so THERE!
ReplyDeleteL. Hyena

ReplyDeletei havent opened MS Word in a year...righting technical specs never called for the use of colours thankfully!!!
ReplyDeletei actually can send u an MS Word ad a friend of mine sent us in college as he was into the CD writing business and wanted to undercut our other friends who were in the same line of work to make some extra money...was reminded of that and the gaudy use of colours in it when i read your post!!!
Unni: You are lucky lol :))
ReplyDeletefleiger: ah! I see, nope I was talking about the font colors. Just picture yourself in that red and try not to barf :p
connors corner: LOL you were very lucky or it would have been war !!
sanjay: MS PPT is slightly better with some lighter shades in offering. And no luck with the guesses :)
Acqua: I am no techie, G1 and G2 were and I use the horrible MS Word colors extensively :)
l.hyena: LOL If he doesnt notice then I am printing this into a banner and hanging it in your managers cabin...with due credits to you of course :))
dhanush: Will try that :)
Jiby: You are right, they are gaudy and that is what we meant when we used that analogy to describe the salwar :)
MS Office has the worst color palette possible in the world!! theyre so...Paandy!!!

Ushoo. y not MS paint or somethin. Y MS word? The office package has a sad day.
ReplyDeleteGasp... Choke... Splutter... That brought back images of a colleague who insisted on turning up at the office on casual fridays dressed in a fluoroscent green mini-skirt.
ReplyDeleteOk, now that I got my speech back, do I want to know what color the top was?
You seem to loathe computer stuffs?? hehe, anyways, i hope the MS guys read it and realize what ppl like silverine think about their "inventions"... lol
ReplyDeletenow i wonder what people would say about my dress color.

Aashik: Havoo I was expecting a rap on my knuckles from you for this :)) That's good news indeed!
the dalda: I have never used MS Paint :)
fleiger: rofl ...and I don't even want to guess the color of the top...but I bet it was MS Word Red :))
eclipsed thoughts: I hate anything that gives me grief :p
jeseem: Your clothes seem just fine, we do talk about guys clothes but mostly about the drabness :)
Guys clothes? Drabness? Just hue you talking about?
ReplyDeleteDid she wanted anybody to sing "Laal chhadi" for her?
ReplyDeleteOk, now you have firmly planted the images of a girl in red dress and a girl in green mini in my head. I am sure I am going to have nightmares today... Even the visual verifier word is in red... Aaah...
iam sure you are a very dedicated user of MS products so it dosent surprise me that you thought of ms word red :)), amazing!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad your making fun of Microsoft.
ReplyDeleteThey're going to screw us all over soon anyway :)
Get ready..
LOL...I can imagine me and my gal pals involved in similar b****ing!! Hahaha..
ReplyDeleteriggs:"Just hue you talking about?" Just that! ;)
ReplyDeletefleiger: LOL even I had nightmares of that combination, from now onwards I want my night mares in black and white only!!!
Praveen: Thank you dear!! Since I used it so often it is what came to mind first :))
dr pissed: Yes da we are screwed big time next year, but Aashik says it will be a 'shade' better. Lets all pray!
Anon: Thanks for dropping by and your comments in the other posts too :)
Forget understanding..I cant even think of two guys having a conversation on similar lines..Men r from Mars and women r from venus :)
ReplyDeleteTalkin of color hues (and ur previous post on ads), remember that old Asian Paints ad featuring a middle aged couple and a weasel like color salesman?
ReplyDeleteWifey says to the paint guy: "I want icky-icky-icky green!"
Paint Guy: "Errr... whats's icky icky icky green?!!"
Wifey lets her fingers run up her hubby's face while she coos "icky-icky-icky-" (hubby's face goes into a shade of green now)-"GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!"
The paint guy hold the palette in his brochure and ID's the matching color.
Now the hubby says "Now I need Goochie-Goochie-Goochie-Pink!"
Wifey slaps him playfully saying "Awww naughtyyyyyyyyy!"
:P
Not exactly profound, but quite original eh?
--------------------
PS: There was a girl in my college whom we guys called Padayappa 'coz she *always* wore those bright green/sulphur yellow/"ultra" violet/fluoroscent/shocking pink churidars.... You know, the "Pandi" colors we sanctimonious Mallus accuse all Tams being fond of? To her credit she didn't even care...
Nightmares in black and white? Now, that's a thought.
ReplyDeleteThough why do you want nightmares at all is a ques. I would like to ask. F. for t. that...
An insult on Bill Gates :) and his colour sense.
ReplyDeleteAashik: *ouch* I knew it was too good to be true...that you would let me off the hook so easily :))
ReplyDeleteAjith: You know you are right!!! :)
Anand : That ad was really nice and showed the range of shades of Asian Paints!! Hey that girl in your college seem to be a cool kinda gurl, more power to her for carrying it off with people like you around LOL
fleiger: Can't escape nightmares naah... :)
Lijo: lol I don't know if it's his doing but it is really bad :))
hehe.. funny
ReplyDeleteAs long as people insist on wearing MS colors? Nope, you can't...
ReplyDelete[On side note, if this is a similar blog... You might enjoy it]
Sujith: Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteFleiger: I do read this blog when I have the time. Really cool, the way the blogger 'rips' the dress sense of the 'beautiful people' :))
