      True...but wouldnt it hurt our MANLY ego to cry infront of so many people?
      Be what you are, not what you want others to perceive you to be.

      • Those were very hillarious guys... I am dying laughing.. lol..

        Here are some from my side -

        I posted these on Poser Diaries, before xBhp crashed.. and I missed this thread, so here again....

        <1.>
        I was riding in a decent speed to pick up my friend to go buy some books. While riding I saw some chicks coming out of a coaching class, I thought right time to flaunt my new bike and it's speed.. I pulled in full throttle and looked ahead (all this while my head was turned left gazing the chicks), then I noticed a stationary car which was not moving , I immediately pulled in the brakes trying to cut through the gap between that standing still stationary car and a slowly moving non-stationary rickshaw.. I saved the car but, fish-tailed and crashed into the rickshaw.. (I blame my enemies for the rain last night) Kind people picked me up, and as got into my senses, and the rickshaw-wala grumbled at me, I fired back saying I'll pay whatever you damages are, trying to gain the lost repo in front of those chicks, showing how rich, lavish and careless I am. Slowly, we both parties cooled down and I decided to pay the rickshaw-wala, as it was my fault and his damages were evident.

        I pulled out my purse to pay him money, then I notice I just got Rs. 10 in my purse.. (Arrgghhh... my old bad and miserly habit to not keep money so, that I can refrain from spending even if I feel like). Now, I wished I could run away, but being a man, and being given words, couldn't do it.. (actually, there were little options to run away)

        I called in my friend for rescue, it took him around half an hour to manage find me, which felt ages to me.. to pay this moron.. After that, I couldn't dare to ride on that road for around a month..

        <2.>
        This is one of my life's most embarassing moments, coz the people here knew me.. and I was without helmet

        It was rainy season.. I had parked my bike the underground parking lot of my coaching class's building to save my bike from rain water... We were (few boys and lots of girls) waiting for the rain to get over. As the rain slowed down a but, I thought it was the right time to ride my bike out in style, flaunt it and return to home..

        I went down and started the bike, and I rode it through the hypotenuse to main area, where people were standing.. I had to keep the bike on a good speed, scared that just in case the bike stalls and I roll down... As, I came out.. I hit a bumper which was just there where the parking area started... I did a small wheelie, and skidded like Hritik Roshan in Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai... due the pool of water there... (Loosers have excuses ) and ended up on being trapped under my bike near the boundary... I managed to stand up (smokes coming out of my ears, my face burning like hell) and a good friend helped me pick up my bike (I heard some girls saying - Pose maar raha thaa...) *weeps* and I zoomed away... grinning on my bad luck..

        Luckily, this was the last class of that subject, and in the next times, I wouldn't meet all of these spectators and my new fans.. , who I am sure, will never want to be my pillion..

        This is something I still wish I could go back in past and change it.. Agghhh.... Next day, a good human being enquired me, if I was hurt... I said no.. I was just trying to entertain you people..

        But after this incident, nothing seems much embrassing and I am very cool to lots of things, where I should have died in embrassment, like getting lectures from my boss for my late-ness, other minor crashes, my gifts being rejected, friends/ colleagues pulling my legs, getting poor marks in exams..

        It feels good sharing this incident with other people, and... I have something nice to tell my kids, if I have someday..

        Other minor incidents

        <3.>
        I was very new with my bike.. and a Phat Mamu (traffic police) stopped me, I thought he will ask for papers, instead he asked for lift.. God, I got very scared.. and felt my license was going to be revoked.. somehow I managed to drop him.. without literally dropping him

        <4.>
        It was Durga Puja time, and it is celebrated on a big scale at my place, I had to pick up my friend to visit pandals, lots of roads were blocked, i.e. made No Entry.. still few people rode through quickly, I too thought of doing so.. but, a mamu came, pulled me, took out my bike's keys and asked for license... I started arguing that, you are letting others go, why not me... and you know these mamus, I was trapped as they won't listen anything.. they continued asking me for license, I quickly took out my license and showed him, he then asked for vehicle papers, I was dumbstruck as last day, I had washed my bike, during which I took out the papers and kept at home. I was in deep trouble and I felt I shall be atleast Rs. 100 light today.. I got called by friend enquiring where I was.. I said I am in mess, come and help me.. He came in a while, and met the head mamu over there and said, kya sir, pandal waalon hi pakad lenge.. ladka naya hai, isiliye maalum nahin hoga.. and after my pals few more street smart lines, we got the keys back and rode through the no entry road.. My pal is so smart that, he manages to ride without helmet, all the time..

        These things might feel embarassing at that point of time, but makes you laugh later on.. and help gain experience with our bikes, with which we manage to escape other accidents (I managed tank slaps in a busy road coz, I which I was almost under an army truck, means no money to my parents ).. I don't blame God for these, I rather thank him to point out my mistakes without calling me, giving me another chance..

          • This thing happened to a senior lady in my coaching.
            When i went my coaching class (small coaching) i saw a girl crying after their batch was over and our time started i out of curiosity asked our teacher, why was she crying?
            She was going on her Saffire on her way to home a day ago suddenly she felt the scoot is stalled and is stationery and she got down, she fell very hard.
            Me: Sir, but why was she crying now.
            Sir: Wo is liye ro rahi thi ki oose uthane ke liye koi aaya bhi nahi.

              1 when bunty12pu bought his 200 in 2007, i tried kick starting it!

              2 when my pulsar 150 was in service center for 4 days, i had to manage with a couple of 180s.When i got my bike back,for a few days i went from 1st-neural-vrooooooom-damn-1st-2nd gear

              3 i was on the highway when a poser on a red r15 rider started to piss me off.i had my helmet, a leather jacket and some gloves and he had a Himesh cap,PINK sunglasses and blond dyed hair!so when he tried to overtake me,i got pissed off and kicked his bike!Mind it that he was purposefully doing it like coming over from my right, overtaking me, braking infront of me, slowing down,letting me pass and then repeating all this again all to invite me to race and all, and he did that like for 10-12 times!
              he fell down and broke his crown(=arrogance not his head) and his bike came tumbling after, while i wobbled for some time and went off road to the service lane.that guy was not hurt as he fell on the divider which is quite wide and was full of water and mud.Poor r15, feel sorry for the bike tho! Even today repent it

              4 was coming home from office, it had rained that afternoon so the road was wet.I was wearing only my helmet, and was behind a car honking for it to let me pass.suddenly he veered left so i went ahead and overtook him but when i reached halfway i saaw that he had not given side to me but to some girl coming wrong side on her activa, doing 80 or so and TALKING ON CELLPHONE.as hard as i tried, i couldnt go anywhere as on my right was the divider,the left-car and in front the activa.i just closed my eyes and BAM we collided.lucky for me the car stopped as my head fell JUST under its front tyre!Some roadside romeos came to the help of the GIrl while one snatched off the keys of the car and my bike.Another idiot came and started kicking me!Lucily there were a few cops passing by who witnessed the accident and helped me go.The girl had no injuries as her activa didnt fall .it just leaned on the divider and went forward!even then she was crying as if all her bbones were broken

              5 this is when i had bought the pulsar in 2006.i was not used to the weight as i was driving a max100 till then.so when i went into a corner where i usually leaned, i couldnt get the bike up and bam!i was kissing the road!lost three teeth
              Next u get a new bike, Use a Helmet ...

                • 7. and last but not the least.....trying to scratch my head with helmet on[/quote]


                  LOL... this has happened to me a lot of times

                  This happened to me a few months back, had gone to an interview. Parked my bike and took my helmet with me. when the interview was over, as soon as I started to get up, My hands instinctively picked up the helmet and I started wearing it in front of all the interviewers... damn me and my foolish antics.... Any guesses on why I never got any calls from that firm??

                  • Don't know if it is the right section but wanted to share this for looooong time
                    it is happened by mistake so i guess its kind of a blooper.
                    One day i went to my friends place directly from our school(was in 11th) to get some movies, so while returning we were on his bike(4-5yrs old splendor ,not serviced for a year or two) which i was driving because of lack of cut for taking a U-turn we had to drive on the wrong side for couple of meters,and then when i finally found the cut i began to drive the bike towards the cut and while driving i mistakenly slipped a gear or two and then i had the first wheelie of my life in the middle of the rode on the wrong side with all the passerby's and the approaching traffic watching (they were obviously dumb founded on what the hell was i doing in the middle of the road)and we crossed the road on one tire and the rest is history

                    • ^ An accedental wheelie on a splendor? Well, is it that torquey? Anyways ...

                      One more from my side:-->

                      Well, in my city's Sophia Girls College, policemen flock down to see that girls are not being teased by boys.

                      One day I was crossing the college. A girl, on some scooty, came my way in order to cross the road, as College was on my left, and she came from right side, from the city.

                      On my horn, she stopped in middle of the road, and Damn, I had to steer & lean so hard, to protect myself.

                      After I crossed somehow, I stopped, looked back & hurled some advices my style. and then saw to my left, Damn! Policemen & Policewomen staring at me. I was dead scared.

                      But, one of them signaled me to go on, like he was saying "Koi baat nahi beta, Chal jaa yahan se". I was relieved and then moved on...

                      • Have been reading these posts for the last 4-5 days...was really good timepass during work!

                        To talk about bloopers...I've many! (Not that i'm proud of...!) I'll start with few...and keep on adding them! coz there are quite a lot of them!

                        1. Year was 2000 - Just started Junior college. Used to sometimes go to college with my 2 friends on a scooty and me on my mom's LUNA TFR! The comic thing is - I had a blue flashy Pepsi ka bag, a White coloured cap, some cheap sa goggle, monkey-wash jeans, some T-shirt, floaters...and this awesome looking Luna!!! (Kind of the PoserX guy...except an open shirt! )

                        I swear nearly a gazillion girls used to laugh at me while passing...but I used to give full atti in that attire!

                        2. Later on we bought a scooty (supposedly for mom!) - Once going to a friends house on my daily road at around 7 pm. I was doing a speed of 45 kmph (that's like 75 % of max speed! )...and THUDDD...and I fall down! I was completely lost, and then angry on the "Idiot who was coming wrong way"...but then I look back, there is not a single god damned soul there!

                        I was shocked...then a few people picked me up, I stupidly ask them - "Err...where's the guy who hit me?!" - They look at me and then look a few feet behind on the ground - A Brand New SPEED BREAKER - without any marking obviously!!!

                        Cursed the corporation all the way till my friends house! Nevertheless to say, I was damn scared my dad was gonna kill me...! (which he didn't...shockingly!)

                        3. Once on the scooty, I was waiting for signal to turn Green. Was looking at the other signal which was green...it then turned orange, and then red. And I was happily waiting for THAT SIGNAL to become GREEN!!! Then after some car honked...I saw my signal was already green...and then i drove!

                        Cheers!

                        • ^^ I recall one of my Scooty Bloopers from those ^^^

                          I have a bad habit of pulling in the clutch and revving the engine in idle... I am trying to get over with it..

                          One day, I was on my cousin's scooty and calling him to enquire where was he, as he traded my bike for his scooty for a day.. he said he was on his way and asked me to wait.. I was idling and pulling in rear brake (which I felt was clutch, though I knew it was not) and pulled in the accelerator..

                          It started moving, and I wasn't expecting that as my mind was somewhere else, I tried to stop it hitting my foot hard, pulling in clutches (rear-brakes), front brakes and I hit a parked bike, which somehow managed not to fall.. You know the funny just for show braking system of scooties..

                          It was funny and lame that I couldn't handle a mere scooty.. lol.

                          • It happened yesterday !!

                            Well I intended to write down many but for now just this one::

                            I was coming back from a frens place in evening with a pillion. I stopped my bike in front of a mobile shop for top up of talktime. This shop is in local market of my colony & so I keep coming here on foot. It took me five min to get the job done & I was out.

                            Well we both forgot that my bike is standing & walked our way to home...... with helmets in our hands. At 10 pm ( after dinner & all) we got ready for our daily dose of night-tea & didn't find bike standing at its usual place. I got worried & millions of thoughts crossed my mind in one min.... when suddenly I realised where my bike is actually?? Ran to the shop like a maniac & found my darling in same pose waiting for me !!

                            Stood there for ten min..... wiped off sweat over head & then tea.

                            • Hahahaha! My friend once did a similar thing&even went to the Police Station to give a complaint! When he got to the same spot with the cops however, he remembered he went with his friend&then he had to justify to the cops that the person who stole his bike must have kept it back at the same place! Man, which thief steals a bike&keeps it back there itself?

                              Anyways, here's something funny that I did yesterday-I was walking down the long corridor of my office&had to take a turn into the cafeteria on the right. Guess what I did? I turned my head slightly to the right, noticed that there was this one guy walking behind me. Then, as though I was on the road&signaling to the right, I stuck out my right hand!
                              Man! I couldn't stop laughing at myself-I always feel as if I'm on a bike, even when I'm on my feet!
                              Quench my thirst with gasoline!

                              • I promised I'll put in a few more...so here goes another one.

                                Note before - This one contains a GIRL!

                                This is the time when I was working in an IT giant. I normally used to leave at 7.30 and go to my CAT class. Once while going down a flight of stairs, a girl from our joining batch was with me. And she wanted to go to the same area where I wanted to. so, a little bit of chivalry can go a long way, don't you think so?!

                                I offered her a lift, and she promptly said "YES"!

                                Well, we were near the railway station area, and traffic was PATHETIC! When we left she complimented my driving skills! I was big-ear-to-ear-smile-and-red-cheeked !

                                Well, I was cutting thru the vehicles in the traffic...and then ... THUD! At a speed of only 5-10 kmph, I bang her knee on a car! lolssss

                                Now her face was redder than mine! But somehow she managed to say its fine...and we went ahead. never again did she ask me for a lift...
