Let's Talk (or shall we?)

Whats the use of saying something about an issue, which is just an argument in the air? About an issue which is not, in any way directly related to your life, or won't impact you in any way? Nor the people around you, who you're talking to...

What are you getting out of it? An ego boost, that you have an opinion about something? A kick that you feel you are right about something, and wanna prove it? A parade of the "interesting" way in which u think? Making A stand about something u are passionate about? If so, to what end?

Cos lets consider the negative side effects of indulging in such a conversation : it can turn into an argument...and in an argument, with ppl who u usually care about, things get bad (or worse? :)
And the next thing u know, sometimes, very few times, u've stopped listening...A point, a counter, a denial, another counter...And at the end, there's no outcome and there's this tension in the air, cos there's usually no resolution, neither side willing to give ground away...

I'm guilty of indulging in such wasted conversations, which serve no other purpose apart from vulgarly displaying the egotist in me, who I don't like to let out much...In the recent past. And it bothers me later, once I'm done with the conversation. Wasted energy, bad impressions.

Then again, u say something, the other side agrees and all's fine sometimes :)
STOP.

Gotten

Heard an interesting usage of this word in a song the other day :

"You just get me like I've never been gotten before"

In an age where absurd lyrics are the norm, and attention to grammar is even less, here's somebody who wants to be all proper and stuff. Nice song, nice lyrics! Thank you :)

This post is not about that song. This is about those times when the usual music that I listen to starts hitting particular spots in my brain, and things go a bit out of control...Response times in the brain are totally whacked out, closed doors are being scratched at and if I deprive my brain of music and thoughts, a super Creative surround sound speaker set is conjured outta nowhere and a set of songs are played in utmost clarity and volume, until I actually put on 'em headphones and listen to it actually....

I dont know I can't describe it...Atleast better than what I did above...And it takes some restraint to avoid doing something stupid (like blogging some crazy stuff)

So nice to see your face again
Tell me how long has it been
Since you've been here
You look so different than before
You're still the person I adore
Frozen with fear
All out of love but I take it from the past
All out of words cause I'm sure it'll never last
