Myth-Busting

     


 Everybody love or hate MYTHS, don't we? If you favour or support a myth it must have benefited you, say we commonly believe in crossing our fingers for luck just because of the last coincidental time when the teacher hadn't checked the homework you completely forgot.

       If you hate a myth then you must have faced the worst day and the last day of believing in that myth.



        In my primary school days, I  used to put my collar buttons when airbus(aeroplane) passed by because we were told we would be dropped chocolates for being disciplined and now I realize if people in there threw me chocolate given the approaching velocity and free fall I would have got my tiny nose broken and little did I know that there were no windows in the buses that drove in the air!



       If you are a person that still believes bulls hate the red colour and never dared to wear red in a cowshed, Try this, take a green muleta and challenge yourself to stand right in front of an enraged bull and whip it and believe the bull won't be triggered by colours other than red and you will find yourself hanging on the bull's horns or in worse cases inside a coffin.



     We were all taught humans have five senses and there is this theory that suggests humans have 9-15 senses. (All my Childhood was a lie!) That doesn't mean superhero movies are real but there might be the thing that there are some unattempted abilities in humans. Among these, one is a myth and the other might be a fact.



     Have you ever cursed your house' housefly for resting on your cake and pitied it's gonna live for just one day. If yes you pitied for the wrong person, It would continue to ask for a share in your favourite snack for over a month for that is a housefly's life span. It lives for a month and not for a single day.





   Cinemas bring us with some unrealised myths too. Have you ever wondered why cinemas most of the time came with powerful and protagonist roles for male leads and nothing more than attractive roles for female leads. That is a myth too!



   Talks about myth-busting don't end in a page, because it's generated now and then. The present-day doings were the past day myths. What matters is our questioning ability in believing anything that will definitely kill all myths!

THE TECH.

                         Let me assure you with the next few minutes of reading. This isn't about the disadvantages of what the topic says nor the advantages because we have plenty of folks on the internet to talk about those.                        I don't like to sound like an old chap talking about 'do you remember those olden days without mobile phones??', the reason being I didn't really exist at those reigns, at least back then averagely there was a handy phone in most of the houses (less than two decades back.)                       But, can you imagine,  children born in the present decade will brag that they were grown with smartphones and laptops and those to be born in the next decade will talk that they had bendable screens that displayed their favourite shows. (Who knows?) .  While we r...
