Back to Tagging

I have seen a lot of people take a dig at "Tags" whenever they get a chance. Whatever they say, i always get the feeling that deep down they acknowledge that the concept is really cool. I certainly think so. What better than stereotyping when you run out of ideas ;)

Nenju PoRukkudhilayae...

Got a mail from a friend today. It was a video file. There were these two girls, supposedly working for Infosys who were fighting with each other. Not just a verbal fight...but also a physical one. What was it over? What'd merit such hitting and pulling each others hair out and worst of all kicking each other so badly, in public. That too, corporate girls? I still cannot believe what I saw.
