CULTURAL QA 03202423

Q4      What're ten most common facts of social psychology?

1. Control how you respond to things sent to destroy your peace,

KR      How will you or why should you close the shutters aafter the horses
bolted?

2. Your child will follow your example, not your advice. This is how life
shapes up in society,

KR       Suppose your example is made an advice?

3. 80% people remain quiet even when they really want to say something in
order to avoid an argument with someone they care about,

KR       They want to speak the truth; but the immoral\codes shut them out;
Offence is the best forms of shut out .

4. Healed people will automatically stop trying if they feel unwanted .
They won’t fix or beg . They simply walk away,

KR    Healing is only once in a life time?

5. Associate yourself with people of good quality, for it’s better to be
alone than in bad company,

KR     Loneliness alone sent you to the bad company gallows

6. Most of us are not a product of our circumstances, we’re a product of
our own decisions,

KR       What is or is there any nexus to circumstances and decisions?
Circumstances exist in all at certain points of play stations. So to use or
misuse some thoughts are run through. One of them is considered as
decisions. And then run the action. Get hit or get out of wit or get to
fit. Now what are you? You are a product grinded out of you past decision
only as you changed your circumstances. Ennith tuniga karumam; Decision is
yours and out come is also that of yours. Nandrum theethum pirar tharaa
vaaraa.

7. No one knows our story like we ourselves do . Don’t let anyone define us
. Let’s create our own identity, tell our own story & be proud of our
growth.

KR      That is the nexus of the problem. Many like Gopala did not know the
underlining fact. They are defining others and getting others defining
them. Absence of self confidence is the basic crunch. Or total denial
without basics.

8. Sometimes we’ve to suffer in life- not because we were bad - but because
we didn’t realize where & when to stop being good.

KR    Unethical statement. Good people and Goodness will never ever make
any good to suffer for the good deeds. Can any one punch on face asking why
did you do me good?

9. Haters are just a part of the game in social circles. Use haters as fuel
to keep surprising yourself.

KR  Exactly that is what many in the group are doing; kindling the fire of
haters!!

10 It’s funny how you can do nice things for people all the time & they
never notice. But once you make one mistake, it’s never forgotten.

KR    Because Gopala never noticed when praised; but can notice only when
pained; so too that sin man older; he is shown his gates. So Good things no
one says even a thank you; bit pain cause all kinds of how to quit the
group etc. Natural phenomena in life.

Q5      What are some good Catholic priest jokes?

KR I bet whether anyone except a few knew whether this is a joke?
Franciscan and Jesuit my alma mater Loyola? Jokes must be universal and not
Malayalam Telugu kannada comedy wrt the regions only. This  is based on the
stereotypical roles associated with different groups, namely children,
Franciscan friars, and Jesuit priests. Here's the breakdown:

The 7-year-old child: Typically, children are seen as innocent and
straightforward. In this joke, the child is asking a simple question about
how to pray for a PlayStation, demonstrating a desire for material
possessions without much consideration for spiritual matters.

The Franciscan friar (Franciscan): The Franciscans are associated with
simplicity, humility, and a focus on poverty. When the Franciscan asks,
"What is PlayStation?" it plays into the stereotype of someone detached
from worldly concerns and more interested in spiritual matters or simple
living.

The Jesuit priest (Jesuit): Jesuits are often depicted as intellectuals and
scholars, known for their educational institutions and emphasis on
learning. The Jesuit's response, "What is prayer?" humorously suggests a
detachment from everyday concerns about material possessions and a focus on
deeper philosophical or theological questions.

Konar notes and converted by force is not a joke

*Q1      What are some of the greatest examples of presence of mind?*

A1      Aklank Jain, Been there, done that6y

Pick the pen by butt!

Raged a senior during one of a ragging sessions in college. All of the
juniors in that room were petrified and confused. They looked towards the
pen that was on the floor and wondered how to pick it up from their butts?

One by one everyone had to try to do that, getting their butts down to the
floor somehow trying to catch the pen from the butt. It made for a
hilarious sight, everyone wanted to laugh, but they would not dare under
the glaring eyes of the seniors.

Rather everyone was scared as one by one their number was coming close.
People tried and they failed miserably, earning a lot of expletives from
the seniors.

But when it seemed that no one would be able to do that, my friend’s turn
came up. He went to the pen, bent down and picked the pen by its butt.

For a second there was an awkward silence in the room. Everyone was
thinking what just happened, but the senior who gave this challenge was
smiling.

He said “I said, pick the pen by butt. You don’t have to use yours to do
that.”

Watching my friend using his presence of mind at that intense situation.
Saved us all.

up, but immediately falls to the floor.He tries this a few more times, but

The next morning, Peter's wife says, "Pete, you worthless idiot, no good
drunkard!

You were at the bar last night drinking again!"

Peter was confused. "How did you find out?"

"The bar called. You left your wheelchair there."

*Q3      What are some of the greatest examples of presence of mind?*

A3      Abhinav Avadhani, A two decade experience with life, still
learning.7y

This story is about my grandfather’s brother. He is considered to be the
wittiest in our family.

He was once a teacher in one of the Delhi Tamil Education Association
Schools (DTEA) and used to teach Math. DTEA, being a Tamil school in Delhi,
the medium of instruction till the 5th standard is Tamil and almost every
kid and the teaching staff would be Tamilians.

This instance is about when officials from the Education Ministry had come
to the school for inspection. My grandpa’s brother (let’s refer to him as
Mr. PV) was teaching some subject in his class when the school officials
discovered that one of the teachers for the other class was absent. So they
asked Mr. PV to cover for that class too. The ministry official,
accompanied by Mr. PV, entered the classroom and the official thought that
it would be a good idea to test the kids on a simple problem on Simple
Interest. Since Mr. PV had taught Simple Interest to his kids, he assumed
that the kids of this section would also have learnt and agreed with the
official.

The official went ahead and wrote a problem on the blackboard and asked the
students to start working on it. Apart from a couple or more students, the
class just sat there staring at the blackboard. This was embarrassing to
the school’s principal and the mathematics department. Sensing that the
students were clueless and maybe they haven’t yet been taught, Mr. PV
stepped in.

Mr. PV to the official: “Sir, it looks like the kids haven’t understood
what you want them to do”.

Official: “Why? It’s just a simple problem in Simple Interest”.

Mr. PV: As you are aware that school’s medium of instruction till the 5th
standard is Tamil, they sometimes have a little trouble understanding the
English language. Maybe, they are a bit nervous too. Can I explain the
problem to the kids in Tamil?”

Official: “Oh. Sure. Go ahead!”

Mr. PV to the kids: “What Mr. Verma from the ministry wants you to do is…”
(he then continues in Tamil) “…you idiots! just multiply the three numbers
in the problem and divide the result by 100. Fools! you’ll have it from me
when all this ends..” (then in English) “…please let us know your answer in
two minutes and write neatly”

After two minutes the kids shouted out the answer. The official looked
pleased and the principal breathed a sigh of relief.

*Q5      What are some good Catholic priest jokes?*

A5      Edward A. Vazquez,8h

A 7-year-old boy walks up to two Catholic priests—one Franciscan, and the
other Jesuit.

He asks them “Fathers, how much must I pray before God convince my parents
to buy me a Playstation 5?”

The Franciscan priest replies “my son, what is a `Playstation 5`?”

And the Jesuit priest replies “my son, what is `praying`?”
