Problem with Pidgin

Disclaimer : This post totally highlights the problems that one could face while installing the pidgin music tracker plugin . All the events described are fictitious.

Pidgin is a chatting client that comes pre-installed in Ubuntu( it comes for windows platform as well). I recommend it because of its proxy support and the various protocols that it supports. I use it for IRC , which is a wonderful resource for geeks. XChat on unix or MIrc on Windows are other clients for the same with more functionalities.
This is a warning for all those who use pidgin . "BE careful if you use the music tracker plugin". Music tracker, as the name suggests , should set as your status message the current track that is being played in your music player.
Now, in Gtalk , the plugin like the above only sets the name of an mp3 being played in your media player as your status message.
Music tracker is evil on that front.
I only got to realize that when at 3:15 am , I recieved a burst of chats , each with either a 'lol' , 'haha' , 'mazze' .... and some being a lot bold with ' apna haath. .....'
One of them was kind enough to tell me that my status message was ' extreme pe**tra**ons'.
Well ... the next time you use pidgin , either do not use musictracker or configure it properly.
It even sets the name of the videos being played in your media player as your status message , to embarass you.

The male menstruation cycle

Well I was under the impression that only women undergo a menstruation cycle , it was only last week , and during my exams( wonder if exams are meant for this?) that i got to know that it is men as well who are going through a menstruation cycle.

This cycle does not include any ovulation or external release of any liquids or hormones....but i am sure that there is something taking place , internally , for sure.

It seemed to me a little strange that during my "periods" ( :-o ) , there were strange mood swings taking place ..... strange.... i would be a different person than I normally am.

I could go into bouts of self-introspection and wonder about stuff related to my hormones ( :) ), for around 2 days , just wonder about the missing link of me still being single.
These exams , unfortunately were a part of that "period" ( and that could be a nice excuse for my non-performance...ahem) .
On the last exam day , one of my batch mates ultimately noticed me being in that compromising situation ( i don't know why but i am remembering one of those sanitary napkins ads on television where a girl's friend ultimately notices it.......but whatever..) , and i wonder why only the last day , when my academic battle was lost , dropped the bomb ..... ......
" dude everybody goes through the period ."
And then everything came into perspective.....what a fool was i always battling between reality and reasoning about my status in every profile i have made , a major reason to delete some....for the repetition, for the reality as i had taken for granted was not based on reality..... which being the existence of the menstruation cycle in men as well.

Most of the problems that the men of today are facing are related to the inadequacy of knowledge about the male menstruation cycle in the society........wonder when would the society awaken to the needs of the poor men.
Till then......
Amen!
