Kansa and Cars

Posted by: Aadisht on: October 14, 2008

Sriram points me to this excellent example of a Virginia number plate that follows the principles of the Kansa Society. However, I object to failblog categorising it as FAIL. This number plate is most emphatically WIN.

Commerce and Kansa

Posted by: Aadisht on: October 6, 2008

Kodhi sends in the following SMS: There is a furniture shop called woodpecker which has lines like “No Children Section” and “Kids are parents responsibility especially in case of damages” What gods. Finally a business establishment which goes to clear and unambiguous lengths to make children and parents feel unwelcome. Businesses which lead the way [...]

Infant Sacrifice Catches On

Posted by: Aadisht on: August 2, 2008

The Kansa Society’s advocacy of the slaughter and consumption of children is making its way into the mainstream media. This is most pleasing. First, Namy Roy informs me over GTalk that she had recently watched a TV interview of Tom Hanks. When asked how he managed to satisfy the audience all the time, Tom Hanks [...]

Karva Chauth and Kansa

Posted by: Aadisht on: July 8, 2008

Over the past few years, Punjew men (axshully also Kayastha boyfriends of Punjew woomaans) have been fasting on Karva Chauth along with their wives and girlfriends. For some reason this is hailed as a triumph of women’s liberation and feminism. This is bollocks. An equal sharing of foodlessness, dizziness and abstinence can hardly be considered [...]

The Brat Noise Project

Posted by: Aadisht on: March 23, 2008

The next step the Kansa Society must take has become clear. No, it’s not the t-shirt. Dinner with the girlfriend,  while excellent (mostly because it was with the girlfriend) was tragically beset by wailing kids. These, it should be pointed out, were not even babies but misbehaved five-year old children. This ravaging of what should [...]

More Mommyblogger Mockery

Posted by: Aadisht on: January 12, 2008

The Mad Momma asks: Why is it alright to be openly intolerant of children? It’s for the same reason it is alright to be openly intolerant of anything – salwar kameezes, Shashi Tharoor’s writing, chicory-blended coffee, and so on. Freedom of speech are there. Or as Skimpy famously put it, I am a free citizen [...]

More Fuel on the Mommyblog Fire

Posted by: Aadisht on: January 8, 2008

Two points: First, Falstaff is a cheap guy. He talks about Coase and childfree-airline tickets without referencing me. Second, a more important point about mommyblogs in general. I’ve been discussing this point with junta, and the consensus seems to be that kids will become irritating when they are given too much attention. The more attention [...]

Coase and Kansa

Posted by: Aadisht on: November 22, 2007

On the flight back to Bangalore from Delhi, I was on seat 16D. There was a kid on 16C. There was another kid on 14C. And yet another somewhere around row 20. And they all howled through the flight. Howling kids are always annoying but the problem is even worse on a flight. You can’t [...]

Cull the Kids Instead

Posted by: Aadisht on: April 1, 2007

Right. These days the BMP is klling stray dogs. This has a lot of animal lovers unhappy, leading to many anguished blogposts (two examples here and here). And inevitably these posts attract commentors who shrilly and hysterically go ‘But don’t you know that stray dogs are killing children? Are you more worried about dogs or [...]

My New NGO

Posted by: Aadisht on: March 16, 2007

I am starting an NGO called the Kansa Society. Its aim is to promote the slaughter of irritating kids. I will be the Chairman Emeritus and Kodhi will be the President. But Jabberwock and Nilu are welcome to join.
