Do I look as if I care??

Many a times, in life, we create notions. About things, people and situations. Often there is no logic(or perhaps there is!) and we don't give a D*** to what others think of them.
Here goes my list, read on...
1) Gujarat is the best state (and Ahmedabad the best city) to live in. No, any amount of arguments (not even the Godhra Kaand) will not change my stand.
2) Branded doesn't mean it's always worth it. I don't think highly of Provogue as a shoe company or of Woodlands as an apparel company; nor is a 1000 rupees worth backpack from Adidas (after discount, of course) any better than the 200 rupees worth bag I bought from Bandra (it has lasted me over two years now). Titan is a good enough watch brand for me. I had never heard of "Police" and "Davidoff" before I came to Mumbai.
3) I don't need to change my phone every two years. No, I don't think I need a swanky cell phone to cast a lasting impression on a client.
4) I don't have an overstock of shirts. Yes, I have over 50 shirts and No, am not going to not buy any more!!
5) I am okay with the shades I bought from a street-side stall. No, I don't trust the claims of UV protection being made by most branded eyewears!
6) Yes, I love my green belt. And my Red shoes. And no, by no means are they a fashion disaster.
7) No, my jeans is not a li'l too slim. I like it this way. It's my jeans anyway, why would you care!!
8) Yes, these are cowboy shoes that I wear to my office. And my office is in the Arabian Ranches!!!
9) Maroon or Purple is a (shirt) colour to be worn to office. As is blue, beige, white and grey!
10) I look around in a zillion shops for that perfect bargain. It is fine if you won't accompany me for my shopping. I take a lot of time to choose. I may not choose anything, as a matter of fact!
11) Lemon soda is a waste of money at a fine dining restaurant. Now you know what not to order when I throw a birthday party!
12) No, I don't get tired of going to South Bombay. And Yes! I like to call it Bombay. South Mumbai sounds pretty shady!!
13) Yes, I remember each penny that goes out of my pocket. And I won't mind if you walked up to me to ask for what I owe you. It's your money afterall!
14) Yes, I like gossip. And no, I don't beleive that you don't.
15) Mughal-e-Azam is a great movie. And Madhubala is the most beautiful actress of all times.
16) Yes I watch Utran, Na anaa... and any other daily soap that you can think of. No, I did not follow IPL.
17) I hate it when you ask me if I remember you. I may not call you or mail you often. I may not even keep you updated of the latest happenings in my life (read my engagement), but If you were ever friends with me, I remember you with all my heart and warmth.
18) No, you cannot borrow all my things. Am attached to many of my belongings and would not like you to use them without me knowing about it. No, I don't trust your material handling skills!
19) No, I don't go home too often. Once in two months is pretty normal. What else do you earn for if you cannot be with them on festivities!
20) Yes, that is a chikaankari kurta that I wear. And no, its not too transparent!

Am sure this list can be endless... Do let me know if you know something about me which I don't. I never had a good score on my Johari Window excercise!
