A Blunder




I love watching the sit-coms in star world. Whether it’s in the genre of ‘The Simpsons’ and ‘My wife and kids, or the professional goof ups, angst, gaffes, relation-ships, comedy-of-life in ‘ 30 Rock’ and ‘Grey’s anatomy’.

Oh the saga of sit-coms , does not end here. The list is long but we’ll stick to these to be ‘in context’.

Whether its Homer Simpson and his endless faux pas, or Liz and her continual retreat from ‘herself’; aren’t they more or less a reflection of ourselves?

Society in the reel-world, look at such characters with either pity or sympathy, and most often than not, with disdain. Well, isn’t this a miniature replica of society in the real world?


Homer Simpson ‘ eats up his feelings’. I mean literally.
And am no different!
Succumbing to an extra plate of noodles in one of my low phases; the ‘strings of fried-flour’ might as well cover the hole in my soul.

Liz Lemon’s life revolves around the lives of her stick-in-the-ass boss, her neurotic best friend, the monkeyshines of Tracy-the TV star. In short, she was fixing everybody’s life but her own!
And here I am tearing off my hair in dilemma, embroiling myself in the lives and problems of others.

And the icing in the cake is that, watching these sit-coms is one of my great-escapes!

I am one heck of a Social Blunder :)
