Ask Baraati - The CKB Advice Column 2

Question: What of your father goes?

Yeh sawaal aaya hai Dilli ke rehne waale us shaqs se jo apni tareef nahin karna chaahtey.

Answer:
The answer to this question is very complex. The question of course is just as complex as Shashi Kapoor asking, "Bhai, sign karte ho ya nahin?" So the answer also must be just about as complex as Amitabh Bacchan saying: "Pehle uss aadmi ki sign le kar aao, jisne..."

To explain this line, I'll have to use the simile technique. Now first, take the popular quote: "Toh main kya naachoon?" Then reverse the purpose of this word. So now with the reversed purpose where you're basically asking the other person whether he should be dancing. Now negate the meaning. So now you're asking him, "Why should you be dancing?" Then you add the assumption that he doesn't want to dance. So now you've proved that you want to make him dance when he doesn't want to dance and then you're asking him why should he be dancing. This contradicts the assumption with which we began the proof that you don't want to dance. Thus we conclude that why the hell should he worry about dancing! So finally, frustrated that even after all this dancing, your friend doesn't understand the meaning of: "What of your father goes?"

So you tell him: "Why do you need to know what of my or your father goes?"
He says: "I don't know."
You: "Do you need to know where he goes?"
He: "No!"
You: "Do you need to know how he goes?"
He: "No!"
You: "Toh phir chootiye, tere baap ka kya jaata hai?!"

Phew!

You owe the baraatis one kimaam paan a day for the next 23 days!
