People who don't watch too many movies should be made to sit together and complete each others' most favourite famous dialogues. What you'll get?

Er... aadmi ko hinjada bana sakta hai?

38 member protest rally:
for the record, it's 'aadmi ko hijada bana deta hai'
(iThink)
But isn't it pronounced with *heenj* as in *heeng* as in asafoetida?
as far as i have heard it , there is no 'n' before the 'j'
Jayant, hijada is hijada - it's pronounced exactly the way we (Kannu & I) are spelling it here.
Also, result came? Joy came? What you got? :D
mudra, this 'hijada' line is exactly what came. what followed was the decision to make some more lines like these. what followed that was a spell of blankness and then, a realisation that such things come at the spur of the moment.
and we needed some1 like bhavin to help out big time :P
Sorry to break up your little conversation here, but I'm just going to say that that's how I and most of the people I know pronounce it. And result came, I'm still waiting on the joy. Or my marksheets. Either one will do. Both would be preferred.
Both would be preferred.
How convenient :P
Ani, you're ideally supposed to comment on the post, not the comments. =P
@ani: What's with the incessant sarcasm?
@jayant: I hope "What you'll get?" was intentional.
(Fights in comments-section!! Let's start!)
*lost little puppy dog face* "What you'll get" is wrong?
@jayant: Shouldn't it be "What'll you get?" (In the question form, that is. In a sentence, "What you'll get is a slap" seems fine.)
(purely illustrative example, of course).
Damn I hate that one doesn't get tonal inflections through the internet. It's in that tone that I would use if I were replying to a question worded the same way by you.
What you'll ge-aet? (nodding-head-up-and-down-type modulation?
@mudra.
mike-check.
@ Mudra.
No, the kind where it's like a conversation between you and me and you can only see what I'm saying (the unfairness of that being an entirely different issue that I don't feel we should be getting into here). Get it? *please get it, please get it, please get it...*
@ Ani.
*wtf*??
@jayant: Er, ok, maybe, but, um, fine, well.. okay.
@ani: Who... is Mike? (Sorry, couldn't resist). But seriously, what?
@ Ani.
I agree. Seriously. What?
@ Mudra.
Come on! I need you to get this... It's the kind of tone in which I would say, "What you'll get? What you'll get, my dear sirs and ladies, is the greatest spectacle ever...."-types.
mic?
@Jayant: Yeah!! Now I get it! Woohoo! Aren't you enjoying the barrage of comments?
@ Ani.
Shut up.
@ Mudra.
Yay!!!!!! FINALLY!!!! And yes, 21 (make that 22) comments. My highest ever! Now *this* is what a blugger lives for (*please* get the two words I've combined here...).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphone
@Jayant: Bluddy Blogger, yesno? And I totally know the feeling. Even if everything in the comments section is completely irrelevant to the post. :D
@Tagat: The question isn't whether a microphone (thanks, we know what it is) is a mike or a mic, the question is why you brought it up at all. :P
Well, last of all, a mic-check is what someone does when for warm up.
I assume you would have got that.
My bad :P
Or Blogging Bugger!
@Tagat: Ah... Damn.
@ Mudra.
Blogging Bugger is dead on.
@ Ani.
All Global Warming and no melting icecaps... *tsk tsk*
@Jayant: Yay
@Ani: Yeah, actually, what is "when for warm up"? :P (I'm in a ragging mood today)
Well if the Master overlord agrees, then the global warming to take effect then it shalt be done.
But since I had to vamoos for better reason, I couldn't begin.
(if you've noticed, I'm already done :P)
If I may just point out to all parties involved, what came of the original argument?
@Jayant: What was the original argument? *puzzled*
@ani: It's like you speak a different language altogether. :-\
@Mudra
Thank you for telling me, I can now add to my oh-so-important resume when I become Mr Senior :P
The original argument, Mudra, is over the pronunciation of the word 'hinjada'.
It's hijada. Seriously, Jayant, believe us on this.
Q- What would Jayant call a crazy eunuch?
A- Unhinged hinjada.
Lol.
Mudra, you're slipping. And I'm telling you, that's how I say it, that's how all my friends have said it, heck, that's even how my family in Delhi says it!
Maybe you use it so often that you've got them saying it wrong now too.
Why do you use it so often, lil Jhayu? Bad manners, I'll tell your mummy.
Jeez!!!!! AAAAAAAA!!!! *runs screaming into the void*
That's how *EVERYONE* says it!!!

Talk, my friend. Now that you've read this section, the urge to speak has increased. I know. It's all right. It happens...
Stop fighting it. Talk.
