Inside jokes

So two of our bestest friends Reghu and Aathira, who live in Dubai, are in town. We share custody of them along with other friends RG and MB. They stayed with us for the weekend and now have gone off to stay with their 'weekday parents'.

We know one another from university days, so it's been more than a decade. But there's something very special about these three guys Reghu, RG and Viv, that ties them in a closer bond.

They bring out the worst in one another.

Jokes that is.

So whenever any combination of the trio is together, people usually cup their ears and run away as far as possible, screaming "Noooooo!" or try to find the nearest pillar to go thunk their heads on.

It starts with the Dubai jokes:

Viv - If a milkman from India moves to Dubai, what does he become?
The rest of us - What?
Viv - Milk sheikh!

The rest of us look for the nearest pillar to thunk our heads on.

Then come the cricket jokes:

Viv - If they named a road after Dhoni, what would they call it?
The rest of us - What?
Viv - Mahi Way!

The rest of us look for the nearest pillar to thunk our heads on.

Then come the geeky jokes:

RG - The iPad won't sell in Bengal.
The rest of us - Why?
RG - Because they wouldn't know it's something new. They'd think it's the iPod.

The rest of us look for the nearest pillar to thunk our heads on.

And then come the nerdy jokes. I don't where Reghu got these two, but they are priceless. In an extremely head-thunking manner of course.

Reghu - So there's a wet slab of ice. On top of that is another wet slab of ice. On top of that is a kitten. The kitten is making no sound. Why?
The rest of us - Why?
Reghu - Because meow is equal to zero.
The rest of us - Huh??
Reghu - It's two slabs of wet ice. So the coefficient of friction... μ = zero.

Reghu - This mathematician checks into the deluxe suit of a hotel. He wants to bathe but there is no soap or water. What does he do?
The rest of us - What?
Reghu - He integrates his room.
The rest of us - Huh??
Reghu - If you integrate dLux, you get Lux + C. He takes the Lux and bathes in the C!

May all you bewdas find your pillars soon! Amen.
