Apparently true.

If I pay 500/- do I get 2.5k words? If so, put me up, my siggy will over-shadow the forums, bwahahaha

Of course I went to that site from opera, I had no issues, maybe IE will catch a virus.

EDIT:
Make sure the laptop has charge, they might ask you to power it on. It happened to me, while flying to New York.

Just to verify that it is not a bomb disguised as a laptop.

I'd rather buy a '.in' domain, although I got $6 lying in my paypal, just need to get verified.

Edit: I'm going for a Malaysia-Singapore tour tomorrow, 10 days trip. I'm open to international tourism suggestions.

It looks like they were doing only good (curing disorders), while media blew it out of proportions.

A very funny quote from above article:

In Indore, the local chapter of the Association of Paediatric Surgeons rubbished allegations of performing sex-change operations on infants. “If we can convert a girl into a boy, we should be immediately recommended for the Nobel Prize."

[furious_gamer]

Is that real?

[sygeek]

And now feel the embarrassment of the above discussion regarding this.

[furious_gamer]

^^ ?? sygeek, did someone hacked your account?

[KDroid]

^^ Why do you think so?

[furious_gamer]

^^ Just kidding, Because he is serious even in Off topic thread. That's why.

[KDroid]

yea...

[sygeek]

I mean, all the while you guys were arguing about this "sex change" news, just to know that it's impossible and the news was a fake. I'm surprised none of you guys is in a medical-related profession.

Exactly the same doubts I had. Desi Dork Media blowing everything out of proportions and international dumb media picking up for quick traffic.

Even if genioplasty is used, how can you grow something which is not present there ? It would be just a cosmetic change.

Seriously while this news may be fake, the mentality is still prevalent.

See, we all know that's impossible, and we are arguing about PEOPLE's mentality here. No need to medical-related profession for this.

@Sygeek, may be you can post this thing in Rant and Raves thread. Like you I also hate when people complain nearly about everything, but it is human nature. You really can't help much

[Liverpool_fan]

Complaining about complains?

[sygeek]

There's a difference between, asking and complaining. This could've been called "complaining" if I would've went in some other forum with this rant or if I was just mumbling about this behind your backs.

Complaining was what you guys showed as an example above. And no need to get offensive unless you're trying to get on my nerves deliberately, you don't want me to do the same.

"Complaining about complaining".... May be LFC is right. we are not telling you to get on your nerves, but chill bro. It is human nature to complain things and not everyone has guts to fast like Hazarre for a cause. So get this and stop complaining about complaining as you are also doing the same.

More like whining.

In fact complaining is the first step for improving our social life. If you won't complain, you'll also probably would never act. In fact complaining also improves awareness on the issues as more people learn about social evils, problems in our society, etc.

We may not act as likes of Hazare et al, but we can act in our personal life, at least by breaking free of the BS "paramparas", and in our very small way improve our society by just improving ourselves.

For instance, if every youth complained about dowry, and practically acted to their words just in their family levels we would have been a country free of social evil of dowry. You don't have to be a Gandhi for a revolution.
