Blue

The first thing that comes to my mind when I hear this word is "the sky". Call it pansy or whatever, but the sky and the ocean is really what comes to anyone's mind when we think of this word.
But being some kind of an "out-of-the-box" thinker, I have to come up with alternative meanings for the same. So lets see what all can I come up with.

Blue is the colour of the skin after a serious beating by someone. No... Seriously.. It can happen. Now imagine a cute chick walking past you. All you do is maybe wink at her, or lets say that you get a bit ahead of yourself and start ogling her (perfectly natural and understandable). And all of a sudden her big boyfriend/bhai/father comes by... and you get the beating of a lifetime (sounds familiar???).. Well, it is an established fact that blue is mostly the color most likely to be flashing before your eyes before they close for an eternity.

What else? Sunday was good. I/you/everyone boozed a lot and got zonked out to the max. We dragged our sorry asses on to our beds, somehow, and dozed off at like 6 in da morning. Come 9:15, we have a lecture to attend. Well, again research has proved the fact that the feeling we kinda have at that point of time is Monday "blues"..

See the kinda crap people come up with when they try to think a bit :P

Moving further into this nonsensical theme, we find that blue is generally the colour of the walls in hospitals. how many of us have actually stopped to think about it? Is it naturally pleasing to the eye? No, that would be green, whose luminous intensity assures us that it is probably the most visible colour in existence. So why are they always blue? If we ponder a bit more on the same we can say that it is mostly the cheapest colour to make. Heh, imagine, blue is cheaper than White. Hahaha. That has to be funny! but then, it kinda gives us an insight into what kind of cheapos all those people are who use this color to paint their homes n everything :D

I can go on and on. But I would like to draw your attention towards the usage of "blue" as a pronoun. Now when we say "I am feeling so blue", What do we actually mean?
Is it, "I am so tense"? "I am sore from that awesome a** whooping"? or something else entirely? Contemplating a bit more on the same, we can ask abt the varying degrees of feeling blue... hehe "bluer and bluest"???

Now if my class mate, neel aka bluey aka internet explorer, reads this, he might think this whole topic is about him. Which leads me to the thought, if a person's name is any indication abt the kind of person he is, doesn't "neel" suggest that he can be the source of a full industry?
Robin "blue" would be out of business in a jiffy. All he has to do is maybe drink a lot and let his body do the work for him. :)


baah.. I have farted enough on this theme. Just wanted to jot something down or the blogspot could have closed this site down for good.
