50 reasons a Bong girl will not marry before you ask a bong girl’s hand in marriage, know all the reasons why she will not marry you 1. She is too hot for you – all that kancha lanka and the sorsher tel. She is hot and fiery and most men pale in comparison 2. You don’t compare to her father – Know the father was one of the rare men who could convince a bong woman to marry him. So he is a dude. And you may not just measure up 3. You think slower than she speaks – A bong girl beats any Chennai express hollow. You will be left fishing for words or thoughts 4. You failed the fish market test – Every bong girl or atleast your bong in laws will make you undergo the fish market test. Stand an hour in a fish market without fainting. Did you survive? No? Side please 5. You have the musical talent of a WWF wrestler – Your musical talent is almost close to zero. You cannot even feign playing a guitar. No you cannot get tied to her strings. 6. You look like a WWF wrestler – beefy and muscular? The bong girl will conclude you have muscles in your head. Hide the muscles if you have to impress her 7. Your hobby is boxing – Told you she isn’t the one who falls for brawns. You do not have a creative hobby. You are better in the boxing ring not with the wedding ring 8. You cannot write poetry in praise of her beautiful eyes – Anything even Vogon poetry can save you. No? Wrong place, man 9. You do not know rui from katla – the twin Bengali fish and they look deliberately similar to get rid of unwanted suitors like you! 10. You disagree with her – remember she always has to win the argument. You disagree with her? You are lucky if you escape only with your wedding hopes dashed 11. You agree with her – remember she doesn’t like wimps. So if you are agreeing with everything she says she will walk over you and then leave disgusted 12. You neither agree, nor disagree with her – She hates ambivalence. So you do not stand a chance 13. You wear mufflers and monkey caps – Tell tale signs of being a mommas boy – she will reject you outright 14. You wear short Tees and transparent shirts – As bad. She would tick you off about your sense of fashion 15. You cannot pleat a tant saree – Take a crash course in folding and pleating a tant saree even before you go anywhere near her 16. You cannot pronounce rasogollas stressing all the o’s – Remember it is rashogolla. Add one or two more h. Speak reverently. Your life depends on it. 17. You do not think luchi, begun bhaja are the best thing to happen after electricity 18. You did not ace atleast one of Literature or Mathematics – What are you? A moron? 19. You do not get excited by ‘A brief history of time’ and say Stephen everytime she says Hawking 20. You do not know your Rabindrasangeet from Nazrulgeeti – If you are mixing up the bards, you are better off dead 21. You say a word out of place about her mother – Remember Bengali moms bring their daughters up to be tigresses like themselves. Anything you say against her mother is are a reflection on her. Beware 22. Your literary skills are limited to the grocer list – Buy a dictionary and start learning new words. You otherwise stand no chance 23.

You think these are things that wives do – well we are with her if she beats you up with the nearest detachable object 24.

You have not read the work of atleast one author whose name you cannot pronounce 26. You cannot distinguish between ghotis and bangals 27. You think Mohun Bagan and East Bengal are equally awesome – Man, you have to take a stand! 28. You do not know your varieties of Illish – issh! Go learn pisciculture. 29.

You cannot stand someone singing down your neck – If you are out on a two wheeler she will always sing. And the same song. Get the ear plugs but don’t stop her. 31. You do not know the answer to ‘ Kamon hobe tumi boloto?’ – Loosely translated this means – What will happen darling. The answer is not giving an answer but say – Tumi bolo. And let this go into an infinite loop 32. You do not know the exact meaning of nyaka – No word in any other language conveys what a nyaka is. I wouldn’t even try explaining it – believe me it will take months of perseverance to know what is nyaka and what is not 33. You do not let her call all your female cousins and girl friends naka 34. You cannot stand sorsher tel and say it is as bad as nariyel tel 35. You think cricket is cooler than football – Yes maybe for the period dada played. Never before. Never after 36. You think a Punjab ki kudi is hotter – remember they are her strict competition. The good natured bong will give you a good lecture about the bong supremacy.

You cannot eat ‘fuchkas ’(golgappas for the uninitiated) – at 10 a minute 39. You are not ok with tattoos, thick kohl and eccentric glasses- Her sense of style is bizarre. Live with it 40. Your hero isnot Sheldon Cooper – Love Sheldon Cooper, Get under his skin. Watch Big Bang Theory back to front, front to back. Those geeks are her heroes 41. She talks about rockets and you think Diwali – For her rocket is rocket science. She likes Diwali rockets too but that takes a second place 42.

You do not think huge red bindis are cool – Yes they hide half her forehead but you have to live with it 46.

You revolt at being called – Ki mishti chele – You are not in unless all her masis and pishis have pronounced you as mishti 48. You have not made one pilgrimage tour to Shantineiketan – or if she is the sporty type to that one house in Behala where dada lives 49. You cannot do the Dhunichi- the dance with the smouldering pots during Durga without coughing yourself to death 50. She is a witch in disguise- only a wizard will do for her – She is magical, she is fiery and she is unpredictable. Only some men measure up to her. The rare ones. The wizards
