7 -- i posted this to make the point that my idea of fun and humor may be very different from yours. that doesn't mean we should think of the other as not having fun.

parodesy noise -- say that as an american would say it, and it sounds like paradEsi nAis  (foreign dogs).  just giving a bit of explainer to this comment in his article:

We decided to call ourselves Parodesy Noise, which to Tamil ears sounds like an American way of saying “Canines from across the ocean” and also suggests, at the same time, a focus on parody while musically remixing things many people consider must not be remixed.

You took my "why South Indians are so serious" too seriously. 

I was obviously kidding about switching tires with rental cars'. Swapna failed to see it n made it about NIs. 

I know our ideas of fun n humor is different. You made your point. It wasn't required though.

i have never found this guy too funny and feel a lot of his humour is too contrived. ramesh mahadevan and another blogger at "tamizhpenn.blogspot.com" were a lot more hilarious.

He is very witty and engaging in person too. And very good at tech. As with the creation of Constitution Trap, he'd once written a blog on some app he wrote on iOS which was so engaging, it actually tempted me to try my hand at some coding (but thankfully the feeling passed after a few deep breaths).
