Hello.

I know you don't get paid to do this, but you also have no right to give wrong information to people.

I feel blog like this should run because of love for the show but you guys make it look like we are dumb & you all are intelligent(who haven't saw it during the time of airing still acts like know everything about what happened off screen). But I agree, you all have more knowledge about creativity.

Truth hurts, right ? When you have nothing to say, just say "go away man". How easy, right ?

I know Barun-biased fans are like this only. Doesn't leave single opportunity to give credit to him. Then, only for namesake, will say that Sanaya is an underrated actress.

You were so right when you said people can't see their own contradictions. The one who here saying I am toxic, is the one have a fanfiction, many scenes of which, resembles your fanfiction( But that would be called inspiration😏). And I don't understand, how stating facts looks to her, like I said you own Barun Sobti or the rights to the character. But it's okay. People like me, dumb & toxic, won't able to understand it.

And It applies to you also. I shouldn't have expected an honest answer from an IPKKND 3 fan like you, who found parallel scenes in rangrasiya but maybe didn't find any resemblance between IPKKND season 1 & season 3 (that's why have a separate blog), about IPKKND. My fault. Anyway, keep doing what you are doing. Whatever it is, in the end it's a person's choice what to believe.

And sorry,I disturb your PEACE OF MIND by stating FACTS.

PEACE OUT.✌🏻

Hello!

I am exhausted. I don't know what to say to you. You are clearly very upset and I am sorry for the role I played in that. I have never called you dumb or toxic, but you seem to be finding meaning in my words that I didn't intend, and this indicates that I should have worked harder to be clearer. We are clearly having a horrible misunderstanding around intent and tone.

I still genuinely think that we are saying the same thing, we're just applying different timeframes to it and perhaps we are not using the same words. But even if we have a difference in opinion, that's understandable. Everyone brings their own lives and analysis and biases to analysis -- I reckon it is impossible to be truely objective when enjoying a piece of media. I didn't approach any of your messages with the intent of trying to change your views. You are welcome to your views and thoughts, I genuinely am not bothered, and I apologise for coming across as forceful.

I also didn't think I was giving out incorrect information, I was telling the original anon what the creative team was thinking at the time of airing and why the kidnapping track is the way it is. In most of my responses, I have noted that their efforts seem unnecessary -- there was nothing to worry about. But I am sorry that I've made you feel unheard.

Attacking my likes and dislikes because they don't match yours is unfair. I do see similarities between the two iterations of IPK. I have gifsets here and here about it. My analysis on @rowdyprofessor addresses the absurdity, the abusiveness, the absolutely shambles that IPKKND3 was. I didn't make another blog to hide my interest. I made it because it's cleaner (for me) to have side blogs for other shows. I created side-blogs for most shows I watched until I decided to house it all under @ferociouspompom. I keep the IPKKND3 blog because it has the saat soch posts.

You seem to have already made your mind up about me, perhaps even before our first interaction. Something about the way you reference Barun-biased blogs makes me wonder whether our interactions were designed as a test -- one that I failed quite spectacularly. I'm sorry that I disappointed you. I did agree with you in some parts:

I am not disagreeing with you. In hindsight, it’s pretty obvious that Khushi and Irani’s portrayal of Khushi played a bigger role in the show’s success than 4Lions or StarPlus thought and the kidnapping track would have stood up fine without the extra elements.

I don't think I'm smarter than anyone else. I don't think my way of thinking is the only way of thinking. But I do think that if someone comes into my space and asks for my opinion, it implies they respect my opinion. And I believe that respect should flow regardless of whether I agree or disagree with the askers point of view. I'm not telling anyone to change their views, and all I ask is that people afford me the same courtesy. Plus, some over a decade since the show aired, it's just unlikely that anyone, you or me or anyone else , is going to change their views.

I'm very sorry. You seem worked up over this and I can only apologise for the role I have played in how you feel. It was not my intent to hurt you. I still don't really understand what's going on because I feel I did agree with you on several points, but I understand that we're having some breakdown in communication that is only getting worse when I try to interact with you.

So, for the sake of both your peace and mine, this will be the last message I respond to.

This is so nice, thanks for sharing :)

Thanks, I am glad you liked it! Love the username btw!

[mukhtaleef]

Eeee, I love the new URL :) Hope you're well!!

Heylo @ferociouspompom​

Thank you so much for the URL love :D I am super happy about it!

Yup I am still doing the asks. As if I have anything better to do!

Does your country (or family) have any specific superstitions or traditions that might seem strange to outsiders? 

Ooh this one is quite interesting!! I had to actually sit down and think about it and I came with quite a few! Some of them I have picked up from family and friends and some I have heard. 

If a crow caws on your front porch or balconies in case of flats/apartments then you are expecting some guests.

If one of the footwear in a pair is kept upside down then it causes fights in the family.

Giving someone scissors/knife in their hand can cause a fight between you two.

If a lizard falls on your head it is considered to be a really good omen. Fun fact: I once had a lizard fall on my head and travel down my body (intense michmichi)! All it did was to traumatise me and instil herpetophobia in me!!

Don’t cut nails after sunsets or on Saturdays! It is supposed to bring bad luck.

Don’t sweep the floor with a broom post sunset, it causes monetary problems.

Don’t wash hair on Thursdays!!

Drinking tea can cause a darker skin tone *rolling my eyes really hard at this one*

Don’t drink water from the bottle which was accidentally kicked. It can make you sick!!

Twitching of a specific eye can bring good or bad luck!

Don’t sleep with hair left open. It attracts evil spirits!

Married girls shouldn’t leave their mother’s house on a Wednesday. This one is a family superstition! 

During pregnancy my MIL didn’t allow anyone to walk/cross behind my back if I was sitting on floor!

Do not take pictures of sleeping baby!

Bride or groom first getting married to a tree to avoid mangal dosh in horoscope if only one of them is manglik!

Phew!!! That’s all I can remember. I am pretty sure there are at least 100 more. Damn we are a country full of superstitions!!! 

Which one do you find most weird? Are there any weird superstitions followed in the country where you grew up? I am curious!

Thanks for asking! It was quite fun.

Not from US ask

[theladyofthewest]

@ferociouspompom YES YES THEY CAN BE!!!!

Mine are just getting comfy exploring their cage and using their swing and toys. People are saying you have to show them where their food is?? How would I do that? Are my chILDREN STARVING??

@ferociouspompom Hi hi! The thing with Sulfonylureas is that they typically do not work on Type 1 Diabetics except in the case of the presence of the KCNJ11 gene. Insulin must be brought into the body from either injection, inhalation, or an insulin pump. 

Sulfonylureas work to promote the release of insulin that has already been created and assist in regulating their usage. For a person with early-stage Type 2 diabetes, these are a good option. In Type 1 diabetics, the insulin needed is simply not produced and thus has to be provided in some other way. There is no tablet that is capable of doing that yet  (on account of stomach acid breaking down the insulin before it can take effect) - although Indian scientists think they may have a breakthrough on that front!. - @arnavsinghraizada

ferociouspompom replied to your post “Just bought some makeup for myself… makeup that I never use ��”

o0o0o0o what kind do you like it is it amazing do you have a photo?

Hi @ferociouspompom! I bought a new (not so expensive) matte eyeshadow pallet for myself. I realised I had not one matt eyeshadow in my kit when I was doing my sister’s makeup for her roka and I was so annoyed with myself. Anddd now I am rambling.

I’ll be picking it up from Myer on Monday, but this is the one I got :D

Heyy, i just freaked out when you said you finished fullmetal alchemist. do you watch anime and kdramas as well? If so, what are some of your favourite anime and dramas?

Hi!

You can see the things I like on my main blog, @ferociouspompom :)

[puranijeans]

Hello!! Congratulations on finishing your exams!! A (hopefully fun) question for you: What would you include in a sequel to The Old Guard? Thank you very muchly!

Thank you! 

Ooooh, a fun question indeed.

Hmm, this is an unpopular opinion probably but I wouldn’t mind Quynh being the bad guy. Some of the comics I read had such an interesting dynamic between Andy and Noriko and I would love for that to be translated on screen. I think I would also want Andy to get her immortality back, maybe towards the end though so it's not too ~easy. Also moar flashbacks! More Joe x Nicky ( I would like to see “We killed each other.” “Many times.” plth I’m a sucker for a good enemies-to-lovers story)
