Finally a Web Series to read

Web Series with a difference. For People Who Still Read. If your brain cells are currently begging for mercy after the daily barrage of Good Morning roses and lotuses, hyperactive reels, forwarded wisdom, unsolicited—but invariably very important—political/ religious sermons and  formulaic web series' ; you have finally found your sanctuary. Welcome ! This is a place for word-nerds, language lovers, compulsive punsters, anagram addicts , and anyone who occasionally feels that words are being wasted on serious things. Here, they will be put to completely unnecessary use. And that brings us to the rather misleading name of this enterprise:  A Web Series . The great advantage of this only kind of Web Series is that you can read it . You can sneak into it almost anywhere, anytime. While waiting at Jantar Mantar for your free Burger-Pizzas to be delivered. While getting bored in a mundane one hundred and fourteenth meeting in a year on educational reforms. While being ...

The Etymology Lexicomedy is a modern compound coined from the Greek léxis (λέξις), meaning word, speech, or style of expression, and comedy , from Greek kōmōidía (κωμῳδία...

Episode 5: Cattle Class

(Click  for previous  Episode 4 ) Episode 5 : Cattle Class Dear Mr. Pankaj Khanna, As you are no doubt cognisant, the venerable Saar has, for many years, maintained an unwavering philosophical reservation about conversing with, or indeed travelling alongside, the so-called “Cattle Class.” That memorable doctrinal proclamation of 2009 has long since entered the annals of public discourse.  We humble Generation-Z interns at the Ministry of Grandiloquance have therefore taken upon ourselves the solemn responsibility of engaging with the hoi polloi, thereby insulating Saar from the logistical and conversational exigencies of terrestrial democracy. Should any lingering uncertainty afflict you regarding your own taxonomical placement within this grand social menagerie, may I respectfully recommend a leisurely perusal of your own blogs? Their bucolic ambience, redolent with the unmistakable perfume of freshly consecrated cow dung and pa...
