I ain't scared of You!

8 in the morning...waiting for a friend ... then I decided to have milk-tea @ the local tea shop! 10 years ago, you knew everybody... now you don't even know the guy who owns the local tea shop! After waiting for 10 minutes, a milk-tea arrived!

When we were kids, milk-tea used to be like all milk and very less tea but I guess hamro New Nepal maa things are different now!

The doodh-chiya looked like black-tea with a splash of milk of something!

And when I asked the chiya-pasaley ... 'Dai, is this really milk-tea?' ... he just looked at me as if he was going to stab me in the eye and replied, "Aankha chaina, doodh-chiya nabhaya kay ho ta tyo?"

Now, I wanted to stab him in the eye ... "Kati bhayo pasal chalaa-ko?"

"Talai kay matlab? ... Ma ta sanga darau-dina"

Now, I was faced with two options... A) Just shut up, drink the @$!#ing tea and leave without paying . B) Throw the tea glass @ the chiya guy, beat him to death, destroy his cow-shed chiya pasal and steal his money and go to the Casino!

I think I am finally growing up. I just drank the tea, gave him 10 Rupees (30% tips) and then slapped him.... " Bhai, ganatantra ayo bhandai maa timi pani Raja nabana yaar!"

Then my friend shows up. The Chiya Pasaley does his Laal-Salaam thing. Oh! I forgot, my friend is the local area commander rey. Jawana maa sangai Phensy (P) khaney saathi , ahiley 'Che' Bandai Cha!

Now, I understood why our tea-man wasn't interested in customer service! Who cares? Drink your shit and @#$! off... He pays Rs 100 to his local Mao-badi Inc Chapter...that's why he's so Furkay-ko! I wish I also paid our Mao brothers ...like Rs 1000 a month... and maybe I could slap him X 10!

And then I took a micro-bus to Kathmandu! Now, that's another story.... I am spending my days ... slapping and bitching! My friends tell me that one day, 700 Kavre ko gauley haroo lay talai 'dhulo' banaun-cha!

I guess I will have to move to Kavre ... then I can ask them 700 Kavrelis for morning tea @ the local tea-shop!

  1. Hello,

    I am Shirish, a reporter at the Kathmandu Post, and am doing a feature for the Saturday special on Blogging. The piece will come on 29th August, 09. I read your blog at, and was wondering if you could be so kind as to answer some of my queries. I cannot guarantee that you will be quoted, but your help will definitely let the readers know more of blogging in Nepal.

    You may answer all, or any question you feel like answering. You may provide any extra information, and your name, real or an ID, but must understand that you may be quoted by the Post. Please mail your answers to shirishp@wlink.com.np

    What is your occupation?

    What age group do you think you fall in: <16, 16-31, 31-49, 49-65, above 65?

    Why do you blog?

    When did you start blogging from? Why?

    What makes you keep blogging, without any strong incentive?

    How many bloggers do you think are there in Nepal?

    Do you regularly read other bloggers? How many, and how many are Nepali?

    Do you believe that a blog can really make a difference? If yes, How?

    I hope the questions are not too bothersome.

    Happy Writing!

    -Shirish
