1000 different ways of saying the same thing

Artist well known for regular burps in her songs, Rihanna, is proving there are numerous ways of saying the same thing. Listen to her song "Diamonds" where she changes her tone, pitch, and enunciation to provide 1000 different ways of saying "Diamonds in the sky".
 This is not her first time fascination with diamonds or her comparison of stars and diamonds. Most of her songs have some reference or the other to "diamonds in the sky". Don't believe me? Pick her top hits and listen to them.

I'm 6Pac


My name is 6Pac,
I have a 6 pack,
I aint no 2Pac,
I'd take a tuppakki
and shoot at your 6 pack

Not an auction

I was at this 'Core Spring' classroom a month back. The instructor was nice and jovial. The classroom sessions were pretty interactive. During one session, the instructor stops his lecture short and points his finger at one of us who apparently has his hand behind the head.
"Do you have a question?"

(Turns to look behind and ensure the question was directed at him) "Err... No"

"There are two places where you do not raise your hand or wave... Classroom and an auction...Luckily for you this wasn't..." (Grins)

Mistaken words: Sync vs Sink

This is an actual chat extract received by a friend at eBay. This engineer wants to convey that everyone is already at the meeting and my friend should also join.

"you should join

Is a hooker one that uses a hook?

My friend was playing 'God of War III' and there was this stage where Kratos was battling Hades. On killing Hades and acquiring the 'Claws of Hades' (enormous neon lighted, hook shaped claws), the player is awarded a trophy. It was amusing to watch the screen read "You've earned a trophy. Hooker".
Hooker trophy, really?

Mistaken words: Patience vs Patients

Here's an email extract written by a developer ...funny how people unknowingly mix words.

"Hopefully the Directors and Leads in my department will have the same kind of patients when I explain to them why projects I'm working due this week are taking longer then normal."

'Desi Boyz' - a career as an Escort

Watched this Hindi movie called 'Desi Boyz' last night. A jaw-dropping, eye-popping movie of the century.

In effect these are the things I got from the movie - 
  • There is a career as an Escort.
  • Escort service is 'recession-proof'.
  • It pays big and anyone with any qualification, be it a college-dropout or a graduate can fill in. Catch - you need a body like John Abraham or Akshay Kumar.
  • On Career day at school, you can proudly explain your career as an escort and get away with it... as long its in a language others don't understand.
  •  Even your wife and father-in-law will understand and agree to you being an escort if the motivation is right.
  • Anupam Kher is an ideal father all the time (in all the movies). He will agree to anyone loafing around his daughter.
  • Even after securing big-paying, decent jobs, your fall back should always be Escort service.
Awesome entertainment and best message to the society.  A must watch... seriously.
