Ma : You didn't find it?
Me : No.
Ma : Then ask for it.
Me : No need. Leave it.
Ma : You have been eating my ears all this week saying you wanted to come here. At least ask them, it might be in stock.
Exactly two minutes later...
Ma : (bewildered) Is that it's name??? Is that what you asked for??? Look at those sales guys snickering!!! The other one is even pointing at you!!!!!! I thought you wanted something else.
Me : (mumbling and turning red) But I told you I didn't want to ask. You forced.
What happened in those two minutes
Me to ma : Alright, alright. Don't push it. I'll ask.
Me to the billing employee : Do you have KamaSutra Deodorant? (OMG, did I just say it??!)
Billing Employee : Sorry, kya?
Me : (Damn! He didn't hear it!) Deeeodorant.
Billing Employee : Kaun sa chahiye, medem?
Me : Bola naa... Kamasutra.
Billing Employee : Kya? *snicker* *snicker* arrrrre, woh KAMASUTRA HAI KYA DEKH RE!
Other Employee : Nirodh?? Nirodh naa?? Hai naa...*snicker* *giggle* *giggle* *wink*
Me : Nahi, nahiiiiii, DEODORANT!
Ma : (bewildered) Is that it's name??? Is that what you asked for??? Look at those sales guys snickering!!! The other one is even pointing at you!!!!!! I thought you wanted something else.
Me : (mumbling and turning red) But I told you I didn't want to ask. You forced.

Yes, that was me a while ago, no ring on my ring finger, in front of my ma, asking for a product with such a (according to mommy - besharam) name making an absolute fool of myself, falling prey to giggling, winking, pointing at me, perverted idiots.
How could I help it if the deo's named Kamasutra?
seriously.. Kamasutra deodorant?? GOSH!
ReplyDeletehahaha..good old Purnima is back!!!
ReplyDeleteeven if you had the ring, you might have elicited the same response!
sad..yet true...
Good girls do not buy condoms..
p.s. is there a deo by that name??..just curious..:-)
Bhargavi : Yes, of the same company! and believe me the DEODORANT "KS Dare" is truly irresistible!
ReplyDeleteUma : Yeah, very true... this exp told me so. The way they looked at me from top to bottom! :| :|
and there is a deo by that name... men deo. Currently we have "KS Spark" which is not as good. :) :|
hahahaha....not your fault at all
ReplyDeletea- the company shud be reprimanded for keeping such a name &
b- you didn't say your mom forced you into saying it ;)
Smita: I perhaps would never have bought the deo if the name wasn't so interesting! ;) ;) :P
ReplyDeleteHavn't heard of it but am wondering what would those Management-Guru kind agency crowd would have had presented to get such a name cleared from the client.
ReplyDeleteBut, guess it's working after all :)
