Unimportant but important things I’d like to sign a petition for

1:
All kinds of clothes worn around the globe should have pockets.

I was once at the screening of a movie called Pentagon. It was an anthology of five stories where one of the stories had a small girl in a lead role. When I walked into the theatre, I saw her decked up in a pink frock. It was incredibly adorable, she almost looked like a doll. As time passed, she developed a liking towards me and stuck around. I generally hate kids – they’re annoying and I don’t know how to hold a conversation with them. But it was easy with her, because she did most of the talking.

Eventually, we sat next to each other. Throughout the movie, she expressed her likes and dislikes and whenever she moved towards me to express it, the dynamics of her seat would change. We would have to consistently adjust her from the start to the end, so the seat doesn’t flap back due to her low weight.

Multiple attempts later, she was frustrated.

She looked at me and said, “Kids shouldn’t be allowed to watch movies, and if they’re allowed they should at-least have a nice experience with separate seats that can match their height and weight. Something higher, and my leg shouldn’t be in this position, it’s uncomfortable.”

The sensibility that kids carry scares me.

(I support this cause)


3.
It’s not Dosa, or Dosai.
No, not in Karnataka.

Please follow the code – it’s Dosé.


4:
Offices need dogs and cats we can name and play with. Employees can sometimes take work from home but the attendance of animals should be made mandatory for betterment of workplace well-being, flow of creative juices, and success of businesses.

Talking of mandatory, tea after every meal is a must.


5:
Fans should be switched on invariably to provide the comfort of white noise and
intimate conversations above a certain decibel should be cancelled in metros.


6:
Haircuts after breakups should have discounts – so you can look renewed and if anything goes wrong, not flinch at the cost (metaphorically and quite literally) of a misery.


7:
A meeting at the end of the year to follow up religiously if resolutions have been accomplished or not can be avoided.


8:
People who honk during a red signal when the rest of the world is at halt and helpless should be fined a sum of common sense and Rs.1000.


9:
New strategies to place keys outside homes have to be implemented with time. Everyone knows the drill now.


10:
I think recording the smell of all the books you read and having a means to go back to it to relive the experience is a novel idea.


11:
A universal signal amidst the members of the LGBTQIA+ community can be enforced, so you can spot each other and feel elated when you’re walking in a world of heterosexuals.
We need that sense of belonging.


12:
Abolish bras.
