Hotel barons the world over are huddled together to fight this new phenomenon at their hotels which lacks any kind of sophisitication and that suave 'thing' but somehow manages to sneak in, courtesy his corporate sponsor.
Sorry brother, We are here and here to stay.
Receptionists at said hotel recoil at the mention of said phenomenon which carries assorted eatable items (viz. Cold Coffee, Banana Cake) in a transparent plastic cover when they are readily available in the same room.
With a price tag that would buy the kauravas and their extended family dinner for a single day, if I may add.
Porters at said hotel are perplexed by the phenomenon who has seemingly forgotten the art of generous tipping.
I carry my own luggage, is that so difficult to understand ??
Room servicemen are rooted to their feet about how this phenomenon manages to stay away from anything and everything that has a charge in the room, but always manages to finish the complimentary water bottles.
The watch word here is "complimentary"
Workmen at the Kortumalai Pillayar Restaurant are wondering at how this phenomenon walks more than a kilo meter for dinner when said hotel has not one, not two but five restaurants.
Onion uthappam with two chutneys and regular sambar. Even ten kilo metres wouldn't stand a chance.
Anthropologists world over are astounded at discovering that watching an episode of "Metti Oli" all alone on a sunday afternoon in a foreign land on a 42" plasma TV isn't the worst form of torture.
Actually, it has been updated to watching two back-to-back episodes.
Fashion gurus are flabbergasted at this new style of power dressing which includes a semi-formal shoe, a formal pant and a round neck t-shirt.
Trust me, I thought the laundry price tag was some jewellery advertisement
Wall street is worried at the sudden increase in demand for cabbage and appalam from South East Asia.
When everything on the menu involves something bovine or poultry or some squishy looking thing that gives you nightmares, what do you expect ??
