hornky-Tonk

We in India love communicating.Even if it were senseless.We love to make small direct ,clean talk complicated by being indecisive.We love to speak at decibels that are sometimes injurious to health as per world health standards,which includes the person doing so. It becomes such a habit that we tend to talk even while driving, parking the car, reversing, or just plain waiting in a traffic jam.No! I am not saying with one another in the same car, but talking to different people ahead of you ,.behind you, next to you and the residents in the neighborhood all at the same time.Phew!!!!!But we are Indians, and we have to be different.

Look at the chaos we create honking the eardrums off every time we drive out.If the car or vehicle ahead of us slows down we honk.If he takes time to take off the traffic light when it turns green, or for that matter even amber we honk.How impatient we all are!!! Where in the world are we going to get an Olympic medal for reaching anywhere?We don't even get it at the Olympics, forget the same back home.The parents coming to drop off the kids to school show the same level of impatience,honk the living daylights of the people around and in a no horn zone at times, thus creating an "ideal' behavior for gen next to follow.

When will we ever learn?What is that adrenaline rush that takes place by honking?It satiates the ego of every individual owning a car , just to prove my car horn is louder than your?Is it that we vent out our frustrations from home and work in the car and the poor horn designed by the auto manufacturers bears the brunt.While one reverses, they love those patriotic or raunchy numbers blaring all the time  that the reverse gear is engaged.Commonsense says, disengage when you take a quick backup and are in position.But , we are so oblivious to the surrounding chaos that we care a damn.Some wild guys love to "proudly state they own an AIR HORN,what ever that means and blow the eardrums of the whales 50000 leagues below the ocean.Please use those gray cells given by god , think for others as well and stop being HORN(Y).
