vtms = middle aged women wearing diamond earrings.
culture vultures, I've heard "another" type described .. you know,
aggressively ethnic fabindia clothes, a bindi as large as a manhole cover,
consciously (over)use bharatnatyam mudras even in normal conversation over
dinner etc. Detest them almost as much as the VTMs.

Oh, EVERYONE detests the gossipers; everyone is an utter devotee of the
music.... none more than the gossipers themselves, when asked! How often
have I heard the VTM's (Vaira Thodu Mami's...don't want to translate that)
gush, "Oh, I just LOSE myself in the music!"...and then turn around to their
companions to catch up on how Lakshmi Athai's daughter behaved with the
neighbour's boy....
Sorry, the Miaow factor of that was rather high. :(
