  1. a thought to ponder, indeed!!:D:D

    my take, OPTIMIST coz you definitely will be immensely SATISFIED once you perform the act..:)) and this mere thought will be giving you positive satisfaction..hehehe

  6. Sometimes we fall short of words to express our heartiest feelings and sometimes the words hold the power and beauty to express our inner feelings. Quotation is one such form in which thoughts and feelings are beautifully knitted with the essence of love, romance, friendship and some also have a tinge of sadness.This blog assimilates not only quotations but also inspirational sayings which are useful in our day to day life.

  11. ooh trust me. if u have a full bladder n want it empty, u DO NOT have such philosophical arguments going on in your head

    ReplyDelete
  12. sleep with your full bladder.. if you can wake up the next morning without peeing in your bed, you are a talented optimist...

    if you wet your bed, then comrade join the bed wetting community

    ReplyDelete
  13. You are full but you want to be empty .. being empty will be beneficial to you .. so you are an optimist .. :)

    @Bharat: If i had an empty bladder, i wont be lazy,

    @Anand: I wouldnt dare do then..emm then again, i just might change my mind..

    @nlShAnth: Thats one thing i believe in..

    @sm: I wouldnt wanna rush myself, i d like to empty it completely after all i have made my decision.
    @Self Proclaimed Shoe Addict: Right, no more philosophy, lets just keep that to not so important thoughts :)

  27. Hi pallav, still appreciate the advice:) keep visitng

    ReplyDelete
  28. well, at first i had a hearty laugh n then realisd that optimism or pessimism would entirely depend whether the contents would be reusable or not!
    n abt hidden data,i dunno.. u tell me:)

    how abt emptying the bladder by 50%? that would be a slight deviation from your chosen preference but hey..u needn't bother again...next decision making time anothr 50%, coz meantime, it would be refilled!!

    gosh, i never felt i was capable of this much eeeeeesh-provoking gyaan :) enjoy, girl!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Hi Vinnie, tht was a whole new perspective, LOL
    Very ingenious indeed:)

    ReplyDelete
  30. you may do yoga to get your bladder empty. yeah it works! search 'yoga' on youtube.

    ReplyDelete
  31. nope...not into brain-gadgetery!!! i specialize in twisted simplicity and impossible analogies... ;)

    ReplyDelete
  32. Anonymous: YOGA!!!!!!!!???with so many postures, im sure to get empty

    Jas Sodhi: This is simplicity:)

    ReplyDelete
  48. This is the kind of shitty theories they teach at management school. Ask YSR he will be able to answer it better...

    ReplyDelete
  49. ha!! What a thought! Hmmm... well I would like to ask bfr i can reply
    1. Did you want to fill up that bladder of yours? If yes then you were an optimist at that time but pessimist later- Hmm I wonder what turned you into one later!! If not then you are definitely a pessimist because it got filled and so you want to empty it.

    2. When the bladder was getting filled did you feel pleasure? If so then you are a narcissist.

    3. When the bladder was full how long did it take you to decide that you wanted it empty? If it was long then you are a masochistic because you love pain. If the desire to empty was immediate then you are fickle minded because you do not know what you want- full or empty.

    4. On the whole I think you are sadistic because you put this question here to trouble us all....... we are racking our brains trying to answer you and laughing in pain!!

    ReplyDelete
  50. you have urinary tract infection :P

    ReplyDelete
  51. either that, or ur a pissimist :P

    ReplyDelete
  52. even i say......just do it!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  53. hahaha lol

    hmmmm....I feel I am not capable enough to answer this highly philosophical quest :P

    ReplyDelete
  54. Pessimist.

    An optimist won't give a damn to such useless thoughts. He'd have better things to do.

    But a thoughtful post. Cheers.

    ReplyDelete
  55. :-B its like that glass half full or empty question , only in a different way .one question . you are a girl ain't you whats with the picture eh :P happy fools day :)

  61. Pallav, Peter and Risha.. Thanks for the visit..

    ReplyDelete
  62. hehe! Like Sujoy I too have not done management... but is long enough in job to know management is about.. it is to confuse only .. more you confuse and confound the better expert you are perceived to be!! ... so i did exactly that...hehe!! but you take the credit for raising such a question.. I guess it is more applicable to USA .. & not India.. where releasing the bladder is not a problem at all!!!! haha
    btw you are visiting my blog that is not beng updated .. do please visit my active blog from now on.. (indiathroughmy... etc etc) ok?

  69. Seriously, is your question *that* important? I mean... I agree necessity is the mother of invention. But the given necessity dictates you don't mess with bodily functions! ;)

    Whacko! Gud 'un! Thanks for the laugh... :D

    Peace.

    ReplyDelete
  70. @Kartz: LOL... atleast it made u laugh..;)

    ReplyDelete
  71. I am confused I think I am not able to understand your question? So I guess that makes me an optimist?

    ReplyDelete
  72. It doesn't make you pessimist. It makes you a piss-I-must ;)

    ReplyDelete
  73. I think its the classic case of how you perceive a 'glass half full'! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  74. Ok.. pee just half the bladder.. and then tell everyone that you got half bladder full... this way you get to pee and be optimist aswell... (too very diplomatic)

    ReplyDelete

Hey, im very sensitive person, but i think i can handle anything:)
