Statisticians!

You are invited for a big party with lot of people. Needless to say there is some great food, mouth-watering desserts etc. Just looking @ these yummy stuff with their great aroma, hunger pangs start to creep in! *Drool* But the party is going on still & no one has yet ventured into the food! *Sigh* But yes ofcourse most ppl are secretly wanting to attack the food....either to satisfy their craving for the food if not finish off the party soon to head home!

Finally the host invites all the guests to start eating! *Thank God!* The food tastes as good *if not better* than it looks! *Slurp!* The host being kind hearted, insists on indulging in more! *WOW!* And ofcourse giving in to greed & unable to resist, more generous helpings are taken! *Gee!*

And then is when the trouble started! There were some people @ the party who were unable to rejoice the food either cos they were extra diet / figure conscious ; if not could not bear to see others enjoy ; or simply cos they couldnt rejoice the food themselves due to their health or some other reason.

These people were so damn jobless that they actually keep track of the number of helpings each person takes! And come up with comments like A gulped 4 rasagullas, B ate 5 bhaturas, C drank 3 cups of payasam & D had 2 helpings of the cake & pudding etc! *Whoa, what great statisticians! Wish they could use these skills more usefully!*

These above mentioned stasticians are actually better than the second kind! *Cos they atleast comment only after the generous helpings are taken!* The second kind actually stare at you when you head for the helpings! And some even have the cheek to remark, Oh my! you are taking yet another serving?!

Hang on, its not done yet! Now comes the spiteful category! These people dread being the host. They would comment *on the sly* "You know X ate 6 masala dosas at Y's party! If I were to invite X for my party then I have to be cooking non-stop!" But you know the best part, they would comment this but still crib & invite X to their party sometime! *Hypocrites!*

Anycase I just wish these jobless statisticians to venture into more constructive work if not start rejoicing food & life better! What concern is to them how much each person eats? Its their life after all! When the person eating is not bothered abt the extra calories why be so nosy in what others do! I dont mean to say all of us should be gluttons or just binge more....but just not to be looking at what others eat, count what they eat & then comment on what all they've eaten! To me its just too disgusting! Each individual knows how much they want & how much they can eat. So why bother @ the rest?!

Just look into ur plate & listen to ur tummy! Do not worry abt the rest! Count ur blessings not what others eat! Life is too short to miss out on all the goodness *especially the good food!!! ;)* What say?!
