Who are you?

January 9th, 2008 by Raj

Who

Quite often I find myself walking down the street at any particular random time of the day in any just as random city approached by complete strangers who want to know if I’m the guy behind this website. More often than not almost immediately after I’m approached I also get to meet the warm embrace of their open palm or on particularly lucky occasions I have a more hard, clenched fist approach to the upper bridge of my nose further perpetuating my never ending quest to join the crooked likes of Hollywood greats such as Adrien Brody or Owen Wilson. You see, just in case you hadn’t figured it out already, these “fans” are in fact random persons who have no knowledge of myself and are probably wondering just who is this weirdo and why on earth should I know him?

Whilst the previous scenario may be entirely fictional it does provide a rather convenient segue into this particular post’s topic of who actually reads this blog? Someone must, there’s a few hundred hits every week and judging by the wonderful world of web statistics you’re pulled in from all corners of this big round ball I like to call “Earth”. So what I thought would be an interesting social experiment that I’m sure a tiny, tiny majority of you may partake in would be to ask you, the reader, to comment at the bottom of this article and tell me a little about yourself. I mean it’s only fair, you know all about me and my petulant ways why not tell me a little somethin’, somethin’ (to borrow a phrase from the kids these days) about your bad self!

“But Raj, what is it that you want to know about me?” I hear you painstakingly asking yourself. It’s OK my child, don’t fret I will help you out by providing some wonderfully well rounded and scientifically deduced questions below this very paragraph of all places! All you need to do is copy and paste them into the comments field and fill in the blanks! Ready?? Here we go…

The Questions about your “bad self”

  • What is your name?
  • Where are you from? (ie. City/Country)
  • Do you know Raj in the real world and not just in a stalking online fashion type of way?
  • Two part question… Do you come here often? Can I buy you a drink? Hang on; 2nd part applies to females only.
  • Why is it that you’re reading this? Work that boring?
  • What would you like me to write about more/less?
  • How many roads must a man walk down before he can call himself a man?
  • Tell me something interesting, anything… quickly, first thing that just zipped through your head!

There you go, they’re not hard at all are they?! To prove it I’m going to answer them myself to show you exactly what I’m expecting from you…. oh and if you’re wondering how to get to the comments section you need to click on the article’s title to take you to the right page.

What’s your name?
Raj, that’s pretty fucking obvious now isn’t it. Fucking moron.

Where are you from?
Well when a Mummy and a Daddy really, really love each other….

Do you know Raj in the real world and not just in a stalking online fashion type of way?
Well considering I’m writing about myself I’m hoping that I know me in real life. But then you might ask yourself, does anyone truly know themselves without true inner peace and enlightenment? Hmmmm…..

Do you come here often?
Well yeah, every time I write something I do. Kinda have to if I want anyone to read the bloody thing.
Can I buy you a drink?
Yeah OK, thanks. Oh hang on I’m a guy, yeah but I’m dead sexy and who’s going to love you if you don’t love yourself first right?

Why is it that you’re reading this? Work that boring?
Truth is I don’t actually read it; or rather I don’t re-read what I right. Mostly it’s because I know there’s mistakes in there and frankly I think someone should pay for me to have an editor that does that crap for me.

What would you like me to write about more/less?
That’s a toughie. I really don’t know, or should I say “I don’t quite know”. hehe

How many roads must a man walk down before he can call himself a man?
42

Tell me something interesting, anything… quickly, first thing that just zipped through your head!
Well the first thing to “zip” through my head was the question again but that doesn’t make for interesting reading at all now does it? The second thing however was the thought of just how many people are going to fucked doing this questionnaire because even I’m worn out and I’m supposed to be the writer here!
