homosapiens felt the need to share .

we had to get a lead in the survival game .
we were competitive .
so we got ourselves involved in a lot tiring activities .... climbing trees , running behind animals , running from animals , hunting , mating ....
so after a hard day , we felt the need to jus sit down , tear some meat and talk .
talk and share .
now see tats where we made the mistake .

So wats wit sharing ? Wats wit asking friends abt opinions ?
Abt everything . career , lovelife .

Lovelife ! Why ? why do we ask our friends abt advice on how we feel ? and sometimes also give advice on how they feel ?

From what I've observed , there are these laws u must follow :


# 1 >
When u are really bored ... Do NOT discuss about ur encounters with the opposite sex .

jill : so wats up ?
jack : nothing .
jill : ok , there's got to be smthn .
jack : A'rite fine ... So i met this chick yesterday .

If u have the slightest thing for anyone . shut ur big yapper .

and once its out . it's not just out . its out there . lurking .

Once its out there , a self evolving amorphous hierarchical organization is formed .

and they are effecient ...
" Dont worry Jim , we have our men looking into the situation . They'll find out why she dint call yesterday " .

with abstraction levels and everything...
" I'm sorry John , we cant tell u if they went for a date last night . U are authorised for only g-15 information ,and this is clearly g-16 . But We'll ask jim and see if we can promote u "

And there are the signs and signals . I dont even know if they exist . But if they do , they are the most complex reversable public key encryption algorithms out there .

jim : k great ! so now u know too .
kate : its k . and its jus me n beth n tiff.
jim : wat ?! tiff knows too .
kate : hey its ok . its jus us . a'rite fine . so did ya talk to her ?

jim : no it does not .

jim : u r rite . the way she said it , i kind of felt it too .
kate : see , tats it . remember , girls show signals . u gotta understand that .
jim : man ! tats so subtle .
kate : well tats how we are . we are gentle and subtle . U've to be shrewd enough to decipher all this and make the move .
jim : u are so rite . i am a moron . Oh kate ! wat'll i ever do witout U !

# 5 > Guys have to make the move . Thats the rule .

" U chose to bring the meat , U are the one who hunts , and U make fun of us all the time , so u do the danger thing ... "

And if u mis-decipherd the signals , then u are 'IT' .
Cuz Now u r the one who has been turned down . And u dint even want to do it in the first place ! And its like a permanent metallic tattoo printed on ur back .
" QA REPORT : Rejected . Count 1 "

It wud have been not that bad , if not for the 'Move on ' routine :

jim : so u going for the game tonite ?
tiff : u and jill look good together u know .
jim : uh-huh . so u a knicks fan ?
tiff : no seriously . u guys look good together .
