Bah

Teamwork sucks... big time.

Anyone who disagrees can go jump off a bridge. The only possible way teamwork wouldn't suck is when you are paired up with your clone.

Now, I am re-posting some words I had written several months ago, so that the clone concept is fully understood.

Ever thought of cloning yourself. To this very day, I was against the idea of having another copy of myself. Would give one hell of an identity crisis. Its bad enough that I may be suffering from a mild case of schizophrenia, now I have to deal with my doppelganger!!!

What would you do, if you meet someone who is YOU!. Exact you. 100% clone. Posture, attitude, dressing sense, fingerprints, right down to DNA…all identical.

How can you tell which is the real you?

In some sense, both of you are real… there would be no possible way to tell which is fake, as there would be no fake. Surreal. Sort of like being in the twilight zone.

Anyway, now I am not against the idea at all. Infact, I need 6 copies of me.
A grand total of 7… one for each continent. That would be nice naa?


Hmm, If I did have 6 copies of myself, life would be a lot easier. Then I (we) can do everything I (we) want at the same time.

Harshal #1 can study

Harshal #2 can read the novels and write his own stories

Harshal #3 can go flirt around

Harshal #4 will play games and surf the web.

Harshal #5 will eat food all the time

Harshal #6 will go annoy his sister 24/7

Harshal #7 will sleep.

Life would be grand.

But knowing me(us), I(we) would soon be tired of the routine. Besides, I(we) would end up in a big fight with myself(ourselves). After all, why does Harshal #1 get to study. Harshal #1 wants to flirt…

Pretty much none of the Harshals would wish to study, and everyone would want to do everything else.

So basically, in the end, instead of having one confused person, who wishes to do it all at once, there will be seven people wanting the same thing. Quite a problem. Though we may also agree that if we all just study the subject matter in parts, it will finish seven times quicker and then we can just let ourselves loose on the city.


But regardless of making the college burden a little lighter, one good thing can come out of this. We would make a killer team while playing games. Imagine a tournament battle. Battle royal kind of thing. Regardless of who beats whom, the end winner will be Harshal.

If it’s a team play, imagine playing against seven of me. As if one wasn’t a pain in your ass, now you have 6 more to handle.

Harshals are attacking you from all sides. You are dead meat.

Even in normal day to day life, it would be fun, to spook people.

Imagine a person walking by and he sees Harshal #1 buying food. He walks a little further, sees Harshal #2 in a car. Wonders how that is possible. Goes a little more further and there is Harshal #3 drinking coffee with some girl. At that time Harshal #4 comes up to him and asks for the time. It would FREAK him out.

People are rarely used to seeing twins. Triplets are even rare…I don’t even know what to call 7 people who look alike.

Would be great for college too. We would give the profs a big fright.


Imagine, prof tells Harshal #1 to get out of class. He does. Harshal #2 enters.

Prof, “ I told you to get out of class”

Harshal #2 , “ oh no, you told my bro”

Harshal #1, “hi prof”

Prof: “ EEEEEEK!”

Harshals #3-#7 barge in. “Hey prof. Sorry we are late.”

Prof faints.

Ah, I need some clones. Sure we would fight over who is the real me, but knowing us, we would soon stop caring about that and focus on how to use our multiple existence to our advantage.
Earth wars: Attack of the Hershey Clones. We may not be scary, but we can be damn annoying.

Seriously man, if teamwork sucks, working with ur clones would suck more.. cuz they all would be as fussy as you...

i have considered that scenario... we would all probably want to laze around while the other clone does the work...in that sense nothing would be accomplished, but soon we would realize its much smarter to finish it up all at once and then go out and order the biggest pizza in the world.

That would motivate us enough to work...

I have written about that in detail earlier...
wait..i will just add it to this post

I arrived at your blog because of my miserable non-sexual-but-still-really-creepy-and-ruining-my-life obsession (i hate the way i punctuated that but i am too tired to change it) with a person (guy, whatever) named harshal. i googled his name because i couldn't help it (when i should be studying or at least hypothetically out with friends like a "normal" person) and arrived at your blog. hmm 7 harshals. he said one time that he wished i was cloned so that one of me could date him. but i reminded him that if i was cloned then there would just be two incredibly selfish and borderline stalkers who wouldn't date him.

anyways. . i very much appreciate your writing style and i might be returning to read more (not just because your name is harshal, although it helps). but i am also really busy, so might not. but i find your point of view fascinating (as well as your wording) and i am wondering how arrogant you really are.

Well, I am not sure what's the obsession with harshal...but at least its not totally miserable...it made you land on my blog after all.

You really should clone yourself...so one can do the stalking very efficiently while the next can be a regular Lys Next day, swap duties. Life's fun :P

My style of writing..has probably deteriorated for a while. Far as I can remember, the last few months its mostly been whining about college work. Now that its finally over I can probably get back to writing some decent humorous outtakes of life.

Arrogance...hmm.. can't really say. Some people think I am humble, some people started buying me gifts whenever I don't show signs of arrogance for a whole hour...

:P
