That is what the whole post is about.<\/p>\n<p>Yes! It is about a form of texting. How sweet of you to guess that much. Well the other day I was going to work and saw this genius of a guy who had stopped his car right out side the main gates in the middle of the drive way and was texting. Yes! he was bloody texting while his car was parked on the driveway as a hurdle for other cars to pass through. I was scolding him in tamil (if i knew hindi i would have scolded him in that language as well) The context of what I said was something like this &#8220;You fucktard could have parked elsewhere and frigging texted your guardian angel to go off duty so that you get killed in a freaking accident&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For a person who does not drive much my road rage is worse than that of the worst tempered drivers. Because most road accidents affect the innocent pedestrians and not the cool dudes sitting inside an AC car.<\/p>\n<p>When this was still in my mind I see another guy balancing his big bag (I assume he is delivering goods or something because his bag was really really huge) on hand which is also controlling the bike&#8217;s handlebar while he is texting someone using the other hand. His eyes were not on the road and his bike was almost going in some zigzag path. Bloody hell! That is how road accidents happen.<\/p>\n<p>Whom are you messaging while driving a two wheeler? Your girl friend? Your wife? Your boss? or God? If it is that important kindly stop by the side of the road for a moment, call that person and then drive away. How long is it going to take?<\/p>\n<p>Are you letting them know that you are on your way? You should have sent that message before you ignited the engine you retard. People dying in accidents are lucky if you ask me. They die so easily on the spot. Do you understand the trauma you put the people around you? To see a guy&#8217;s head being crushed by a tanker lorry&#8217;s wheels. To see all the blood splattered on the road. To see life leave a body. You have no idea.<\/p>\n<p>And yes I did see a guy dying once. He just fell off the bus and died on spot. Thank god there was no blood. He hit his head and died on spot. But I saw the life leave his body. That look I saw in his eyes still haunt me.<\/p>\n<p>At first they brought a law that you should not take calls while driving. And then there came the option of hands-free. I have no idea if anyone uses it. Then there is the option of bluetooth connection and you can just fix your phone in front of you jab away all you want. I hope they bring a technology for hands-free text messaging or something like that. So that you will stop doing it and keep your concentration on the road and not on your 50k worth smartphone which is way too valuable than your dumb self.<\/p>\n<p>Honestly stop this texting while driving. Or maybe it is driving while texting. Just like how sexting is texting about sex, under the assumption that you are giving a live commentary about your driving skills through your messages, I came up with the word &#8220;Dexting&#8221; I know it sounds way to retarded. But not as retarded as you texting while driving or putting up a facebook status while driving. It is not cool. And when you die, it will never be cool. Yet people will still be doing it! That is how pathetic people are getting these days.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"pvc_stats_1093\" class=\"pvc_stats total_only  \" data-element-id=\"1093\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon small\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.0\" viewBox=\"0 0 502 315\" preserveAspectRatio=\"xMidYMid meet\"><g transform=\"translate(0,332) scale(0.1,-0.1)\" fill=\"\" stroke=\"none\"><path d=\"M2394 3279 l-29 -30 -3 -207 c-2 -182 0 -211 15 -242 39 -76 157 -76 196 0 15 31 17 60 15 243 l-3 209 -33 29 c-26 23 -41 29 -80 29 -41 0 -53 -5 -78 -31z\"\/><path d=\"M3085 3251 c-45 -19 -58 -50 -96 -229 -47 -217 -49 -260 -13 -295 52 -53 146 -42 177 20 16 31 87 366 87 410 0 70 -86 122 -155 94z\"\/><path d=\"M1751 3234 c-13 -9 -29 -31 -37 -50 -12 -29 -10 -49 21 -204 19 -94 39 -189 45 -210 14 -50 54 -80 110 -80 34 0 48 6 76 34 21 21 34 44 34 59 0 14 -18 113 -40 219 -37 178 -43 195 -70 221 -36 32 -101 37 -139 11z\"\/><path d=\"M1163 3073 c-36 -7 -73 -59 -73 -102 0 -56 133 -378 171 -413 34 -32 83 -37 129 -13 70 36 67 87 -16 290 -86 209 -89 214 -129 231 -35 14 -42 15 -82 7z\"\/><path d=\"M3689 3066 c-15 -9 -33 -30 -42 -48 -48 -103 -147 -355 -147 -375 0 -98 131 -148 192 -74 13 15 57 108 97 206 80 196 84 226 37 273 -30 30 -99 39 -137 18z\"\/><path d=\"M583 2784 c-38 -19 -67 -74 -58 -113 9 -42 211 -354 242 -373 16 -10 45 -18 66 -18 51 0 107 52 107 100 0 39 -1 41 -124 234 -80 126 -108 162 -133 173 -41 17 -61 16 -100 -3z\"\/><path d=\"M4250 2784 c-14 -9 -74 -91 -133 -183 -95 -150 -107 -173 -107 -213 0 -55 33 -94 87 -104 67 -13 90 8 211 198 130 202 137 225 78 284 -27 27 -42 34 -72 34 -22 0 -50 -8 -64 -16z\"\/><path d=\"M2275 2693 c-553 -48 -1095 -270 -1585 -649 -135 -104 -459 -423 -483 -476 -23 -49 -22 -139 2 -186 73 -142 361 -457 571 -626 285 -228 642 -407 990 -497 242 -63 336 -73 660 -74 310 0 370 5 595 52 535 111 1045 392 1455 803 122 121 250 273 275 326 19 41 19 137 0 174 -41 79 -309 363 -465 492 -447 370 -946 591 -1479 653 -113 14 -422 18 -536 8z m395 -428 c171 -34 330 -124 456 -258 112 -119 167 -219 211 -378 27 -96 24 -300 -5 -401 -72 -255 -236 -447 -474 -557 -132 -62 -201 -76 -368 -76 -167 0 -236 14 -368 76 -213 98 -373 271 -451 485 -162 444 86 934 547 1084 153 49 292 57 452 25z m909 -232 c222 -123 408 -262 593 -441 76 -74 138 -139 138 -144 0 -16 -233 -242 -330 -319 -155 -123 -309 -223 -461 -299 l-81 -41 32 46 c18 26 49 83 70 128 143 306 141 649 -6 957 -25 52 -61 116 -79 142 l-34 47 45 -20 c26 -10 76 -36 113 -56z m-2057 25 c-40 -58 -105 -190 -130 -263 -110 -324 -59 -707 132 -981 25 -35 42 -64 37 -64 -19 0 -241 119 -326 174 -188 122 -406 314 -532 468 l-58 71 108 103 c185 178 428 349 672 473 66 33 121 60 123 61 2 0 -10 -19 -26 -42z\"\/><path d=\"M2375 1950 c-198 -44 -350 -190 -395 -379 -18 -76 -8 -221 19 -290 114 -284 457 -406 731 -260 98 52 188 154 231 260 27 69 37 214 19 290 -38 163 -166 304 -326 360 -67 23 -215 33 -279 19z\"\/><\/g><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/aratrikaspeaks.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p>You can wonder what &#8220;dexting&#8221; is.
