Up the Meister

The Meister was missing his blog and so he is back. Not that he has anything profound or philosophical to share.

He recently went and saw that movie about that most awesome of superhero - Wolverine (Batman is in a different league altogether...nobody's cooler than Batman)  He enjoyed it, so did Fraulein SS and MS Brownjacket. Despite being a Jackman fan, Meister feels that Liev Shreiber stole the show. And of course there was Gambit.

Well, before the movie, SS told him about some cousin of hers who had gifted her an Ipood. She was saying that she was highly reluctant to accept it and would rather have preferred mangoes. Why anyone would be reluctant to accept free stuff (unless it is Manchester United memorabilia) is one of them eternal mystery thingies. Since the Meister has long ago managed to deduce that all women are nuts, he would not even comment on this, but the choice of mangoes over free Ipood is something best described as nutty.

The real fun so to speak started after the movie. 

MS Brownjacket wanted to eat, so Fraulein SS suggested a Chinese place. So they all boarded an auto and went in search of the place. 

The only hiccup, as it turns out, was the absence of such a place. 

Either the restaurant has gone kaput or SS's memory has followed her certain body part into being geriatric. So they could not find the place and had the bright idea of tracking their way back in case they had missed it. After 10 mins of such futile exercise, they (rather Fraulein and MS.....Meister was an oasis of calm in the sea of agitation) decided to go to another place and boarded another auto. As it turned out, they went through the same route that they had already travelled twice - once in auto and once walking (too many pronouns but hey shit happens)

Anyway they went to Malgudi, which for some reason Fraulein persisted in calling by the name of that most excellent of series by Mr. Laxman. 

And then Fraulein and SS started talking about guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Granted they were talking of army guys (Meister has nothing but admiration and respect for those dudes btw) but if a ranking is to be done of the whole plethora of topics to discuss, with football coming at the top and women's fashion disqualified for just being silly and for making no sense, then the topic of guys would definitely come near the bottom. Thank Guus there was good food and a bigass jar to distract the Meister otherwise he would have been bored silly.

The Schutzstaffel (German for "Protective Echelon"), abbreviated SS was a major Nazi organization under Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. The SS grew from a small paramilitary unit to a powerful force that served as the Führer's "Praetorian Guard," the Nazi Party's "Shield Squadron" and a force that, fielding almost a million men (both on the front lines and as political police), managed to exert as much political influence as the Wehrmacht.

ergo Fraulein SS

SS also being the esteemed lady's initials

and before angry protestations, the naming is ironic

as far a MS Brownjacket goes, the MS stands for the esteemed lady's name and also for Modern Slave, and definitely not ironic
