2nd choice

This happened at the GD/PI training I was attending today. Basically each person is interviewed as others watch - so that you learn as you watch.

So this is what happens to this generally sensible, likeable sorta guy. His major achievement is that he has a 100 percentile in the CAT, effectively topping it.

Interviewer : "So, what do you think about gay people?"

100 percentiler (thinks a bit) : "I would like to say sir that they have the second most popular sexual preference in the world."

Is that a story or what!

The Pop Quizzing Joke Book - section I

The MELA quiz at MindSpark,(or barQing Mad as some of us like to call it) ensured conditions where I could comfortably stare at the screen, think about the answer for a nanosecond, and then resume with whatever I was doing before (i.e chatting, counting the number of tiles on the north wall, eavesdropping etc.) This is where these following jokes have their origin.

1. Why could Avinash Mudaliar never complete his maritial pheraas?
Ans: He insisted on a round reversal.

2. Why did no team finish the Military quiz?
Ans: Due to the rapid-fire round at the end.

3. Why did the times call the quiz "a victory of circular logic"?
Ans: There were too many rounds.

Yes, I know, the last one sucks.

Go Ogle Gulp for Yash.

Normally, youtube posts are avoided to pay homage to long-past days of dial-ups and suchlike. However when a good friend, and co-quiz-organizer, celebrates by gulping down a bottle of Pepsi in less that 5 secs (exact times yet to be calculated) - it surely deserves a mention. And no, unlike joey, it all went in.

Guess who my latest friend is!

It's none other that MR Economics - Tyler Cowen.

OK, here's the deal. After succumbing to numerous emails saying "you have been invited by xyz to join Facebook" I gave in and registered. Then it searched my Gmail address book and invited everyone on Facebook and in my address book to "become friends with me". What this meant is that I inadvertently sent a message to Tyler, (with whom you may remember I'd communicated before) asking him for the same.

And guess what? The busy doctor condescended to spare a few moments of his busy life to click on "yes". Yay!

Here is proof for the more carping-variety of readers.
