Stumbled upon this accidently.... and still curious why this thread. This thread seems to have been created to mock the actual thread 'Agony Aunt' which is a serious insult to it.

The 'Agony Aunt' thread was started with a serious concern in mind. I don't care what the thread originator had in his mind, but such a title is pure mockery to the actual thread, its originators and to the people who have had geuine problems.

Hence, i request the moderators to remove this thread asap.

What is obvious may not be apparent. It may be satirical to some of u, but spoils the image of the original Agony Aunt thread. I dun care what this threads contains, but i object on the title, so chosen to mock the Agony Aunt thread.

Well there are talks in the market about how some author is planning to publish a book by the name of “The 7 habits of lowly-ineffective people”

Please go through to this link here, before you read ahead:
"The 7 habits of lowly-ineffective people"


The book is supposed to help create problems, where none exist by giving the readers a barrage of wisdom needed to create problems by the way of catchy, easy-to-remember one-liners…

However, I am of the opinion that author/publishers’ attempt to give out these books free to the readers, and thus create economic problems for themselves, are going to be a big failure…as most of the habits advocated are those which people are already aware of/plain wrong, and no one will buy their free books, after reading this review!!….

Here are those “7 habits of lowly-ineffective people” and my stance that most of what is there in the book- almost everyone knows, and some of the principles INFACT are anti-problematic!!


1---Be procreative: Everyone knows that this helps us create problems like over-population, over-crowding, excessive strain on limited resources etc…

2---Begin with start and say end immediately: Everyone knows that taking up some work and giving it up that very moment, will always create a few problems?

3---Put “second thing” second: We all know that giving second priority to the most important thing: “Number second call”, will ensure that few gastrointestinal problems are created, if nothing else…We don’t need a book to tell us that, do we?

4---Think Lose/Lose: Isn’t it obvious that this principle is wrong in most cases…For, it’s logical that however much badly we want to lose in few areas, we will still win it, due to the sheer concept of relativity.

5---Seek MISS-understand and then MISS-understood: Now, even this is obvious!…We all know that chasing 2 women is a big problem…Further, wouldn’t it be subjective as to how we seek MISS-understand and MISS-understood…We are already aware that we need to seek Miss-Understand and Miss-understood, but the book will never tell us HOW should we seek…even if it does, it wouldn’t work, thus prolonging our comforts!!

6---Sin—orgy-ize: Now, isn’t it obvius that we can have an orgy and commit as many sins as possible, and we would have the biggest recipe needed to create all kinds of problems?...Why would we need a book to tell us that collective “sinorgyize” is very problematic?...Don’t we all know the obvious?

7---Sharpen the saw: Now again, isn’t it obvious that sharpening our saw (command, decree) will make us more rude, offensive etc and will create more problems…Do we need a book to tell us that?

Hereby, I conclude that the book “The 7 habits of lowly-ineffective people” is a useless book and will be “The Greatest Book that is never ever gonna be read”!

Cheers!

well dont u think everyone is going overboard with this thread bashing....

i understand ore senior pgs are lining up in their views to close down the thread.... but please see the forum on which it is open... pagalguy.com ( does the name even sound sane to u in any stretch of your imagination.

it has also been posted on chit chat ( which tells us to talk about anything we wish ) so if few people agree that this thread should be continued.... just let it be.... those who are not interested can simply ignore this thread.... but if a certain amount of people wish to continue then this thread should STAND.

@mahip : i think my above post will give u enough reasons not to lock this one

@abhi_g: dude... murty_001 has posted what we all wanted to tell u since a long time.... stop posting one liners.... i have seen u posting 5 one -liners post in one go.... either appreciating or criticizing somebody.... u have a thanks and groans option specifically given by pg just for that purpose.... and even if u r so adamant .... try clubbing all ur thoughts and posting it in one go...

@plumber, rishabh: agree with u guys this thread should stand
... will add my views later

Jose Mourinho recently claimed his side's Zlatan Ibrahimovic is a better player.

Ronaldo, though, has refused to be drawn into a war of words, adding: "I respect everyone's opinion. But the trophies that matter are at my house."
