IrOny For StAtus MesSages…..

Okay Okay, of all the absolutely jobless people in the world, I guess I am one!…. NO NO, this time I am pretty serious…. [:P]  The world of Internet, and Chatting provides a breather of space for “Jobless” people like me…. That’s one place where you find all kinds of people….. Trust Me! All kinds….. And the Messenger’s  ( I include Gtalk, Yahoo Messenger, and all other forms in this list ), have a very Unique thing called as the Status Message…… People who are addicts to chatting will know what am I talking about…..

Being jobless I decided to do a little bit of a research on these Status Messages…. I have broadly classified them into few categories…. I shall quote one example for every category….
1) The Super Senti Stat Messages:  These are messages which will make the reader feel, why the heck am I alive on planet Earth?…. Example:  ” If I were to die today, I prefer dying in your hands….. So that I can look into your eyes and forget the pain”…. Some such sorts…

2) Announcement Makers: These are such messages which people have to convey to many of their chat friends…. Example: “Oyyyy Mechanical 2nd year, The MD Lab has been called off tomorrow…. So Party through the Night”….

3)  Attention Seeking Messages: Now these are the “Really Interesting” Stat Messages… Being jobless I keep looking at the Gray Icons on my chat list, to become green so that I have one more option to pass time on…. hahaha! A few of my friends( names concealed ), log in with messages like ” Out Leave Message”, ” ” I am not here right now”…. If these were the cases who the heck did log in on their accounts?…. Some Devil I guess…. haha! Actually by having such messages people want to seek attention from their friends, so that everyone asks them… “Hey where are you?”… ” Are you there?”….

4) Concise but Good Ones : These are messages which cover a wide variety starting from humor to valuable quotes: Example……………..

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Stop bugging people with boring Status Messages , put on your thinking cap’s and give me some examples such that I can fill in the Examples in the 4th Section……  Happy Chatting to All….. Cheers!

  1. Cool!!!!!!! Thats a nice post but keep on doing your jobless work and make a collection of status messages. In fact I know a lot of people who google for good status messages and put them on. I guess they are the producers and you the consumer. Economics is everywhere :-D

  2. Yes. Good job you ‘jobless’. :)

    And vivek is right.
