    Now this was funny!
    Fucking tharoor, i was real surprised when someone told me he’d become a politician, even more when that someone mentioned twitter.

    you’ll have to add more categories to your tweet-up characters.

    Mid-life-crisis-facing-gentleman who might be somewhat evangelist-ical.

    See, this is what i need after a day of work.

    good job.

    Great build up to an excellent last panel/page. Couldn’t have guessed a father/son conversation would lead to this – of course, sponsored by @shashitharoor.
    And I am so proud to be @skruyu’s fraand :D Can see some other familiar faces too

    saadakhtar // November 11th, 2009 at 2:02 pm

    You mean if Shashi Tharoor opens a Facebook profile, and suddenly middle-age India wants to poke each other and take personality quizzes? OMGs

    Superr ! Tharoor is the Undercover Market Strategy of Twitter in India ! He was also inspired by your own Quote "People are mindless cattle" , they are cattle class
