Some ground rules in Orkut…

Well, you all know what Orkut is. If you don’t you must be one of these two things – a) Over 30 years of age, b) Or you have been so ignorant that you still think that we are all single-celled species that has never evolved!

Orkut is a public forum where vetti people spend atleast 2 to 3 hours a day, and take pride in being that vetti.

Anyway, here a few ground rules that people should follow while using Orkut.

About me

Your ‘about me’ can be about yourself or a line from a movie or even a joke, but is should never be like “I am a cool guy/girl, leave a scrap to find out more about me”

Yeah, part of my job description on this earth is to find out about lame “cool” guys.

Music

Please specify the band or the composer you like. People don’t want to see answers like “I like all melody songs” or “Kutthu songs”,

I think you are a disgrace to the human kind if you say that.

Ideal match

No smart-ass answers like India vs. Pakistan, Brazil vs. Argentina, or other such nonsense, please.

First thing you will notice about me

No, I am never gonna notice your smile. Please don’t write that. If I do notice it, it means you’re smiling all the time, and that means that you’re mentally retarded.

From my past relatioships I learned

Don’t say it took you 6 whole months to learn “Never to trust boys/girls.” You must probably be brain dead, after the relationship.

To people who have a million friends…

Are you kidding me? Eventually, you can’t add any more friends (the limit is 999), so you start a community for yourselves. We are not 16 year olds, and this is no popularity contest.

Photos and Captions

Don’t ever upload pictures of celebrities and give the caption as “my boyfriend/girlfriend”. It hurts me. It physically hurts me. Also don’t upload pictures of yourselves and write ‘Oh my God, I am so ugly in this picture”. I don’t think you will upload it, if you thought you were ugly. And no one is gonna say, “it’s a cute picture”. If you say its ugly, I’ll agree.

Mails

Please don’t go around sending mails like “Send this people to 15 people. Your crush is gonna call you, mail you or says she/he loves you. “ It’s never gonna happen. Get a life!

Funny Franshippers

Who really gives a rat’s ass if you have very few friends and not enough scraps and testimonials? So, don’t go on an “unknown friend adding” spree. But keep those funny “Can I be your fran” or “Can I do franship with you” scraps coming in. We absolutely love them, and you people are the greatest source of entertainment.

Testimonials

Regarding testimonials, please don’t use the MS Word dictionary, and write, “She is beautiful, she is stunning, she is gorgeous, and she is cute. They all mean the same thing, for crying out loud. And no testimonial should have any picture of a flower.

And finally…

It is an unsaid rule that whoever joins the latest should take the pains of adding all the

people you know. Also, if you are already online, you must be the one to take the

initiative and scrap first.
