Are you serious?

If you really meant what you said above, you need to have your head examined.

You need to take a class in critical thinking.

Rishi wrote:Most of the articles in the Economist on India are written by Indian journalists.

Doc, c'mon. Be honest. You can admit that you rejoiced the moment you saw an obit for your god in the hallowed columns of the Economist and without reading it fully, promptly rushed to post it here as a towering achievement of the Marathi manoos. Don't worry. We won't think any less of you. We can't.

Merlot Daruwala wrote:"Nonetheless, if Bal could have seen his own state funeral he would have much enjoyed it: the VIPs still just terrified enough to pay insincere homage to him; and the vast adoring crowd, still ignorant, still biddable, watching everything he had told them to believe in turning to ash."

Bwahaha...

the very fact that you had to mention slobodan rather than other more notorious people ( who belong to the religion of piss ) shows more about you to me .
