Murder At Midnight

Tuesday, October 5, 2004

Finally when I looked at my hands, I saw blood.

It was the blood of my victims. Victims, who were brutally murdered by me. Victims, who were crushed by my cruel will of crushing them. Victims, who had no right to live. Victims, who had no right to live because I didn’t want them to live. Victims, who didn’t deserve a single ounce of mercy. And victims, who were mosquitoes.

I don’t know what occupied me but I just couldn’t do anything except to kill those annoying creatures last night. I mean, come on. You are sleeping in your bed and dreaming about how you have saved the world from a team of horrible, out-of-this-world-aliens, and just when you are beaming at the flood of people, waving your hands, and receiving the applause you rightly deserve, a sharp pain in your cheek forces you to wake up and notice that even though you could combat aliens who invaded the earth in your dreams, you can’t just beat a group of little insects who invaded your bedroom in real life. (Note, however, that I have never had such a dream. I just wrote that to make my point clear). So you scratch your cheek, roll to your side and go to sleep again, hoping that you could resume watching that dream right from the place where it was broken, and find yourself awaken again due to another (or same) mosquito. So the thing you should do is, switch the light on, spot the mosquitoes and crush them between your palms. And try to focus on your objective, not at the thought that your actions are making you look like… you-know-who (No. Not Voldemort.)

As far as mosquito repelling mats and creams/lotions are concerned, they have never worked in my case. Besides, who need them when I have got my hands who scored 13 last night.

So what’s your highest score?

Lol, you had me worried for a minute there.

My record is four within a minute. Family says I’m like Mr Miagi, except without the chopsticks, karate skills, and Asian-ness. But still, very Mr Miagi like. ;)

You evil, heartless man ….

The poor li’l things take .000001% of your blood over a period of 365 days, and you flush 100% blood out of 13 of them in one day!!!

…. what sort of a justice is this???

You …. you …. er… ummm… you…

well,when i was living in a hostel in malaysia, 1 of my friends who had d same problem as u, well,he killed alotta mosquitoes, & stuck them on d softboard on d wall infront of his study desk-believe me,somehow it worked-after all those 2dozen bodies stuck up there, he didnt have any more mosquitoes bothering him!
& well, a friend of mine(a chinese gal) was told by d accomodation officer 2 keep 1 KG of garlic peels in c corner of her room,dat wud drive away all of them, she replied,but sir,dat will even drive me away…!(& i am NOT calling her a mosquito here…)!
yeah, d fabricated dream did make it interesting thou…!
a better way 2 use those repellant mats is not to put them in their holders to burn all night, just hold them wid some tongs,or scissors,& light them wid a match,& walk thru d room-then count d bodies strewn all over d battle field…!
or mayb ur just sweet blodded-like they tell me…if theres 1 mosquito,& 10 ppl there including me, d damn thing wud choose me…!

Dont you just hate it when they go like ‘weeeen-eeeen’ in your ear? Pulling sheets over your head doesnt work, you can still hear them! Then I usually get paranoid and imagine I can hear the irritating ‘eeeeeen’ even if it really isnt there!
Mosquiteos Suck! :(

grrr, mosquitoes should be exiled to a galaxy far far away.

and i never killed mosquitoes with my hands – used to electrocute them with the gadget you get, thats sort of shaped like a tennis racquet. revenge in the form of smelling burning mosquities is extremely satisfying.

Dude, Avon has this stuff, ‘Skin So Soft’ bath oil which repells mosquitos and is non-toxic. You just mix it 1 part water, 2 parts SSS. I use a spray bottle for it. You should try it!

Everyone: The mosquitos have not shown themselves since the ‘slaughter’ I had done. Now, are they afraid of me, or are they preparing themselves for a full war?

Owl: Now that’s the right thing, I’ll be counting my victims per minute too from now on (if they show up, that is). And if you’re Mr. Miyagi like without chopsticks and karate skills, you’ll be raising some serious hell for mosquitos if you are with them!

Knicq: Hahaha! That’s called blind justice. And that’s a great idea: I’ll hang a sign on my bedroom door saying ‘Bush here’, and the mosquitos will never enter :D

Asma: Wa-alaikum-us-Salaam. More than 25? I mean, 25? Do you offer courses in mosquito combat? I’d love to get myself enrolled.

Moiz: Now that’s a nice idea (burning-the-mat thing), I’ll try it if the mosquitos return. And LOL, you’re sweet blooded? How’d you know?

BBiA: Nah. There isn’t anything to worry about. I call this place ulta seedha, right?

AWK: LOL! Let the mosquitos return, and I’ll show which-number maar khan I’ll be.

Chij Bachee: Oh yes, how did I forget to mention that ‘weeeen-eeeen’ sound. Next time you hear it, use your hands instantaneously. Who knows you might become a great nishana-baaz!

Huma: And what would we do if the mosquitos are sent back here from the folks at galaxy far far away? I’ll try to get that gadget, by the way. Wars have gone so scientific these days!

Laura: Hmm. Skin So Soft bath oil. Don’t know if it’s available here. But if it is, I am going to give it a try. (God, I’ll be purchasing a bath oil to fight mosquitos!) And tell Avon that if it works, I’ll manage 6 apples as a reward!

1998, PCBA – Lahore, knicq and Madi were driving a whole lot of people crazy reciting the machar joke to them. We would relate the joke with the same fervor, if not more, for the umpteenth time to the SAME person, and laugh our hearts out at the end of the joke – EVERYTIME.

- and to think it was actually a joke about a man who caught a machar! They hated us!!!

Put a machar in a room, in a joke, or in a blog, and soon the wheeeeeen starts, an before long there is blood!

The moment I read the first line, I knew u were talking about mosquitoes! HA! Me… 14. I killed 14 at a time… and that too with my chapppal.what you should do is get those mosquito repellent mats. instead of putting them in those machines you ought to burn them and then down come all the mosquitoes ‘fainting’, crashing like little jets and you stomp on them. he he. it works all the time and then ofcourse you’ll have to turn on he fan. And sweet dreams. :)

Sadiya: Oh yeah! Hunt ‘em down. All of ‘em!

Abez: Mortein! Well, I don’t have Luees in my room, so morteins don’t work for me!

Knicq: That’s what a machar is … hilariously annoying!

Laura: Thanks for the link :) I’ll try it now.

Aysh: Oh well, if a bio-tech scientist with an IQ of 136 wouldn’t guess by reading the first line what I was talking about, then who would, right? And you used a chappal to kill them? God, you are even more brutal than me.

Aysh

Oct 10, 2004 at 12:25 pm

He he he very funny! :P I use chappal ’cause I dont want their blood on me… it can be on my chappal… :) no problem with that.

#1!!!

i did it, once. one fine night, one was floating in mid-air, almost bloated with blood (you could see a little ball of red bobbing up and down, struggling to hover) and there…… SMACK! the blood splattered on the white-coloured sheets of our bed with its wings battered against the palm of my hand.

it was a spectacular sight….. XD

ps.ps. i’m so sorry most of my updates have been so far and inbetween, since most of my lj is friends-only now::: maybe you should sign up, i’ll add you, and you can read the rest of my entries :D

hahaha. for a while there, i got scared, seriously! then, you started saying something about mosquitoes and i started cheering on, yeah, you’re right, you really SHOULD crush those bloodsuckers!!

If your hands turn sore from all that “macho/superhero” combat against mosquitoes though, just spray some baygon in your room, that should work, just as well. hehehe.

anyway, thanks for visiting my blog!
