terrifying experience at the farm share pickup

little boy (age 4): I’m almost done with my parachute! (playing with plastic bag)

me: great!

little boy: and then i’m going to use it to light THAT on fire!! (pointing to my bicycle)

me: oh, uh, well i won’t be able to bike around then. how will your parachute help you do that?

little boy: well, i’m going to blow into it, and then it’s going to blow out a hot air that’s going to make you sick, forever.

me: !!!!!!!!!????????????

A.R. Rahman - “Urvasi Urvasi”

This is from the Bollywood movie Kadlahan, which I haven’t had the pleasure of viewing. “Urvasi Urvasi” is a seriously ill, synth-backed song and features perhaps the most wicked dance moves ever performed by an Indian. Definitely not like anything I’d previously associated with Indian music/cinema.
