Depression at parties and other social gatherings

It is the most irritating thing to be invited to a party or to go to a social gathering - there is really nothing to do. Everyone is talking without saying anything - it is pretend talk. No one really listens or cares to listens - they are already so bored by mumbling crowd. Whoever invented parties should have been hanged.
Situation 1: You meet someone you know after a very long time, indulge in small talk and then that person spots someone else and walks away halfway between a conversation.
Situation 2: You start talking to some one, that person's cell phone rings - instead of paying attention is talking to whoever is at the other end.
Situation 3: You are sitting around feeling like a complete idiot, because no one is paying any attention to you, because you have all but given up - trying to go ahead and actually go and talk to anyone because that person is bound to start ignoring in a very quickly. But you are stuck because its late and you are famished and there is not much option but to wait for dinner.
Situation 4: You have been invited to a party - where no one knows you and you know no one, the host is too busy with other people who have just arrived and simply forgets to greet you. You go in and wonder why you ever came to this party. Everyone is talking none of which makes any sense so there you are munching snacks the entire evening all alone.
Situation 5: You go to a party where there are people you know - but they all look down on you because you don't measure up - because they are wealthier, more influential - it is another question whether they are smarter or know more or not. All that you have is a rickety old car which needs to be repaired almost all the time, while they all have these brand new 'limousines'. Some of these guests are your relatives and they will never bother to help if your car just does not work when you leave the party, you are simply not worth it.
Situation 6: You spot someone at a party whom you know, that person passes a glance and sees right through as if you are not there, when you greet them - they are forced to say something but later you see them grind their teeth as to why you bothered them, they do not want to have anything to do with you.
Situation 7: Your host is extremely patronising - introduces you to his guests (whom you do not know) as being a relative of someone or what you do for a living. The guests greet you with half smiles, do not bother to shake your hand and resume doing what they were doing earlier and your hosts disappears in the crowd and you know the rest of the evening is going to be boring.

The blessed and the cursed

The only way to get a really grand job is to be in the right place at the right time. Hardwork, talent, ability and intelligence means nothing. All that you learnt at you university or college is worthless. Consider a man working his butt off for years in a company, suddenly finds out the companies boss has been jailed for not paying taxes. The company winds up and the hardworking man ends on the street. He put in his life in the company – now his pension has gone and he is an old man with no chance getting another job. Lots of people try to be become movie stars end up they are too ugly, their voice is terrible and they just simply stupid – it is all matter of being bad luck. Others regardless of how they look get great part in some movie and end up acting in a film which makes lots of money. A good luck also accounts for the fact that some people can get away with mass murder and never be held accountable for their crimes and some one get just kill one person and be jailed for life

Mysterious kidnappings

Young students in their twenties are being kidnapped from Karachi and other cities. Though reports about these are kept secret, but with the frequency they are taking place, there is bound to be a leak  and people eventually get to know about this. But the question is who responsible and why is it happening. There are no clear answers. But the people who get away by committing such crimes are obviously are very highly placed, they are virtually above the law. No one can arrest them, even though the evidence is overwhelmingly against them. This is a new way to terrorise the people, it simply boils down to this. If the police and other law enforcement organisations are unable to prevent crime, the people would be forced to take up arms against those who murder, kidnap and steal. Whatever the reasons for the kidnapping, is irrelevant, the people protecting the kidnappers will face the wrath of the people. No court, no judge is going to prosecute these criminals. There is a limit to su

Dr Salman Shah is insane

The price of petrol has been increased 7 times and the country's Finance Adviser says it will not affect the economy. I do not know about the economy but I am paying more and more for petrol and my salary has not increased, it is not enough one day petrol will eventually become as expensive as gold or more. Its people like Dr. Salman Shah who do not announce anything during the budget announcement, later start telling the people that everything is going to be more expensive later at the same time say it will not make any difference to the economy. Dr. Salman Shah says this because he does not have to pay for the petrol of his limousine - it is free for him Why should he not drive around in his limousine and pay for petrol from his own pocket instead on relying on the government. The day he starts doing that he will realise what he has done, he will scream. The price of petrol is high because it has 300 per cent taxes on it. If those taxes are removed the petrol would be m
