At long last!

This post is by the guest.

To give a brief introduction, the guest blogger is a certain Monsieur Louis Costamagna. He is a thinker.[Always has a profound expression on his face. I suspect that he does that intentionally to trick people into believing that he is wise]. He also considers himself to be a 'global leader'. [Has taken the lectures of 'Leading Globally' back in MDI a little too seriously]. Louis is also the authority in the profane usage of the Hindi language. [I totally envy him for that].

To know more about Louis Cos*whatever* [and I thought I had a terribly difficult surname!], you can visit the following link:

Below is the post:

Laziness (no other word came in my mind)

I have to admit that I accepted to write this “guest post” because my friend Madhu lost his brilliance for sure. I have never seen a lamest thing such as writing a blog. But this is not the topic of today. I am here writing about my Indian friends in a European context.

First I have to apologise because I am late. But important people do not lose their precious time to write in a lousy blog, do they? However as I promised to be able to say stupid things about my Indian friends in Europe, and the way they live, I am doing so.

What is quite funny about this blog is the expression “Anyway, Whatever” because I think that it describes quite accurately the behaviour of some of our Indian friends. They do not really care as long as you do not bother them too much.

Indeed for European people like I am (even though I like to consider myself as a World citizen), saying yes –and I do not even talk about the way Indian people nod the head, would be too long- to a question like “will you help us to do the group work? “ will mean that you will do it. In fact, Indian people never say no, they just usually do not do it. But as I see my friend Madhu (pronounce Ta Da, and I mean Ta Da) I would consider it as “these European fellows do not know how to do and manage things” or “anyway we are the next Big Thing”.

For us –please understand the old fashioned occidental people – the most astonishing thing about our Indian counterparts is their internal clock. For our dirty and intelligent minds, Day is used to work, chill out, see friends and all these social, vital or whatever things. On the contrary Night is usually used to do the useless thing on earth: Sleep.

My Indian friends are used to do it the other way. This has raised a lot of debates among a group of European people. Is the world divided into two separate parts where people consider Day and Night differently? Or is it just pure laziness? The second proposition has curiously held the majority of opinions. Or maybe we could include it in the Figin index (the most stupid theory on earth), that will be the real nobel prize winning work… I could all tell you the numerous theories we have settled in our minds concerning this matter but would be uninteresting, so I leave it to your suggestions that I am waiting for in comments.

After that I could speak again about the reactions in front of a big engine car or a small piece of cloth on a big piece of skinned body (a.k.a. a big engine woman)… But I won’t do so in order to avoid troubles with the readers (I know that they are numerous) and the people concerned.

I may forget a lot of things but this is it.

I have however to mention some stupid things that have been written in this blog. First, I have to tell you that Madhu is still considered as being a shitty football player, what we would call in French a lemon cutter i.e. the guy who’s staying on the bench in order not to trouble the real squad. Second, if one day Madhu obtain knighthood, it will be because the King has become an Indian and has invented the laziness Knighthood.

To finish as the blog rules: anyway, whatever.

Ta Da (a.k.a. LC your French servitor)

PS: Please excuse my poor English, French people are more famous for other things.
