The essay points out how long, pointed kitchen knives are being used to, can you believe it, stab people […]
On the way to office today, I saw a damsel-in-distress pushing a kinetic scooter. The chivalrous in me (and the male) goaded me to go and help. Me: How can I help you? She: No, thanks. Me: Yes, I did say that to the guy who offered me drugs. But how does that help you? […]
