Coprolalia

Welcome to an unknown psychiatric syndrome, which cripples a lot of teenagers as soon as they move away from home. If you still doubt my claims, I shall recommend that you peek into any ordinary college bitching about professors, courses or tests. The level of obscenity in all these are far beyond the actual intentions of the teenagers or so to say young adults (this sounds like an oxymoron). Often, my friends would say, their address to mother or sister is only to trigger a sense of disgust in the listener because they are pretty immune to the other (non-obscene) ones. Well, it could be the case, but we must look into this psychological behavior of this specific age group with some more caution.
One of the first causes of these could be a severe restriction prevalent in society when someone intends to talk about sex. This leads to two bad outcomes, namely, the first is that the 
teenagers get to know about stuff from a highly unauthenticated and filthy atmosphere, which in turn maims the foundational attitude to sex education. The second is that the only time adults refer to sex in the presence of young children is often in verbal outbursts. These are often linked to a significant cause of Coprolalia, and why young adults believe you are more effective if your slang is… dirty.
The second and further alarming cause could be the presence of sexual frustration among this age group, which may arise due to a lack of companionship or, often, due to peer interaction (pressure). What makes this problem grave is that the outcomes can be disastrous if the levels of frustration go too high. Along with it could lead to (what we state as immoral) habits of porn, prostitution, etc
Well, to readers who have detected themselves free of this;
 Often, your words are a reflection of your thoughts; steer clear of all this.

Politics of Perpetuity

There are obvious downsides to democracy. When we look at the distribution of opinion on a particular issue, it generally follows a normal distribution. This implies that to achieve the majority, it's theoretically advised to stick to the centre. And this love for mediocrity makes democracy allergic to politically solid decisions.  Along with it, democracies tend to be the rooster for sweet talkers. And that is an outcome rather than a voluntary trait. Primarily because most voters need to be equipped to deal with the complexities of the field. For example, it could be more practical for an electrical engineer to comprehend medical patterns and the pandemic's effect on production. Thus, democratic institutions need people managers who have two keywords to watch out for - sweet talking and status quo. However, democracies have been hugely popular. And people have reported being happier. Whether this is induced, indoctrinated or influenced is another question. But history has cho...

Turning back from pull to push

Two recent campaigns deserve attention from marketing enthusiasts, one of Campa Cola (reenergised by the Reliance Group) and of Tata Sampann's species. The challenges these two brands face are too distinct from one another. Campa, on the one hand, aims to fight the global brands like Pepsi and Coca-Cola, whereas Sampann looks to create a market in indian spices that has been dominated by local players like MDH and Everest. However, their strategies have something in common: getting the distributors to stock more of their products on the shelves. Campa is offering the distributors twice the margins, while Sampann is leveraging its vast portfolio to make stocking only Tata products a win for the distributors. Image credit: Economic Times To understand why this is happening, and what makes this interesting, one has to look back on the history of marketing, more specifically the shift from a push to a pull-based marketing, where the focus of the brands shifted from pushing their produc...

The Theatre Era

As tough times await us, it's frivolous to talk about theatres. But doesn't it look like theatres would go out of fashion before the pandemic ends( But would it ?? ) With the footfall on OTT platforms rising daily. Looking at a screen stuck to the chair, with no ability to pause or even play subtitles, sounds so technologically inferior. The blockbuster release has increasingly been  generously funded , mega-multi-starrer films, which keep running sequels until they go unprofitable . In fact, content is sometimes the second priority; the fan base and the festive season come first. Over the years, movie houses have mastered this art. Roping in top actors into characters that have gone synonymous with their name. The OTT platforms, however, are earmarked for the content. Their promise to give a shot to the aspiring director who doesn't have funds to compete against the mult-million movie releases. Thus i n its cast and crew shines the raw, untamed art which any critic would b...
