The world is a happening place. Every now and then, we read about some pacts, some deals, some decisions, some acts, some injustices we want to comment on. Gen - Y Speaks is just the place for the younger generation to voice it's opinions, be it against ANYONE, ANYTHING, no restrictions. So what are you waitin' for ? Pop up your mailbox, and scrap me your views. I'll punctuate them, edit them, and post them here with the appropriate acknowledgments. Happy voicing !

Pull my finger, I won't laugh
Okay, I agree, the title makes no sense. But if you're truly a Gen-Y Superhero, you'll be able to see the funny side of it. That brings me to the cause of this post - Defining a Gen-Y Superhero. Are u intrigued? Are u scared? Well are u nervous, that you wouldn't be able to qualify as one? Are you feeling nauseous, well then you should probably just go outside and get some fresh air, cause that's because of something u ate earlier. A superhero is usually a man in tights doing good things all around. Well, lets be honest, nobody cares about doing 'good' and well, flaunting your tights isn't exactly the best thing to do either. But just think about it : Your action figures, toys, etc. being played by kids of the next to next generation. Now that's cool. How do we manage it, well, turning yourself into a Superhero is basically not that hard. We all have a hero inside of us. But in Gen-Y, that hero has to be one with powers to not only save the world, but also changing it for the greater good. It's intense. It's gigantic. But ultimately, it's comic-book stuff baby. So don't get intimidated. All right, let's try what you may call a more realistic example. 'Reservation'. That's something the Government of today is 'wrongly' building up. Adding to the already present inhumanly large numbers, it's increasing ! Gen-Y, we are being pushed to a small corner, and it's not exactly great for us. The Government is defying God's law that everyone was created equal by making castes in the first place, now they're just going on with it like a swirling pool of gas (?) I dunno what that meant, but it sure as hell meant something deep...or smelly perhaps. Depends on what kind of a person you are. Anyways, not drifting away from the topic, a true Superhero would either kill Mr. Arjun Singh and the others to end this thing for all. Some might call it is an over-reaction, but remember what happened in Rang-de-Basanti....Or, the superhero would protest in the same manner, against the odds, like our predecessors did for the nation. And funnily enough, by contradicting the Chief Justice and the leading politicians, you'd be contributing to the nation, now that's Super-hero-ish no questions asked. So people, it doesn't take a lot to be a Super-hero, but you can't be one unless you try once. (tell me if that rhymed) So leaving you to wonder about that, I have some costumes to pick from. But remember, it's not just about you, it's about the entire Gen-Y.
