IIT Exam Entertainments

All the non-IITians, please refer to this link for some of the IITB lingo used in this post. Trust me. You'll need 'em. 

Oh boy! We are beating all the trends and stereotypes of IITians all through. We enjoy examinations like midsems and endsems with all our hearts. Not the examination to be specific, but for the very essence of being part of the R.G. There is one or the other confession pages that pop up receiving the highest data inflow, Facebook ever witnessed till then. Some of the other forms of midsem-masti (read midsem luhkkha) involves changing the profile pictures into favourite Pokemons or cartoons. They never fail to impress and entertain me and the entire IIT fraternity in the way of innovation.This Midsems (2014-Spring) too has been a part of innovation with students changing their profile names into famous celebrities with appropriate profile pictures and cover photos. The status updates from these profile are based on the normal people perception of these guys trending on social media for a long time now. There is an Alok Nath now who won't stop blessing people and would look for every possible chance for a Kanyadan. There is a Sachin Tendulkar who has made an announcement of returning to International Cricket. Then we have a bunch of other cricketers like Ishant Sharma, Aashish Nehra, etc. We have Arnab Goswami who keeps on asking questions to people claiming the question to be posed by the nation accompanying a tagline "The Nation Wants to Know". Then there are parody accounts of Anna Hazare, Baba Ramdev, Bapu, a dozen of Anu Malik's, Kapil Sibal, Rajiv Gandhi, Narendra Modi and what not. On top of these, there is a parody account of Rahul Gand..., well Pappu, who whenever opens his mouth, talks about women empowerment, RTI and shit.
