I was always intrigued by this contraption- OK, cosmetic- named the vanishing cream. I mean, who would want to vanish, and what if that happened permanently? But assuming that some segments of people vanished, hat impact would it have on the rest? Here is an unva(r) nished look at the possibilities. May not be as apocalyptic as The White House burning, but still..
If telecallers vanished, I would get maybe three calls a month. And the telecom service companies would go bankrupt.
If all the ad-men/women vanished, I could watch whatever little TV I watch, peacefully.. and wouldn't need to buy the NEW deo to attract yet another cute girl (or an army of them)..I am not talking about ME here, it's only metaphorical.
If banks were to vanish, mattresses could come with secret chambers, like some trousers still do. To hide the cash in. And ATM thieves and online money-transfer scamsters would have to re-skill.
If big retail stores were to vanish, moms and pops who ran stores would be happy. Maybe their sons and daughters too.
If drugs were to vanish, smugglers would struggle to make two ends meet. Everything else is already made in Taiwan and available everywhere.
If all the talent shows vanished, maybe some real talent would surface..and its quality would be terrific when it did surface.
Likewise, if TV vanished, choupals would come back in vogue, to meet and exchange the day's news, views and more. Ok, Facebook would also have to vanish. Conceded.
If cricket vanished and Bollywood too, Indians will suffer a breakdown, and may stare at the blank TV screen for days on end. Or, may be they'll start talking sense.
If Britain vanished, there would be no more delinquent nations who would imagine that they still ruled the world, a hundred years after the event.
Some more thoughts, dear reader?

If I could vanish, I would probably indulge in mischief(winks).
If 'apple' vanished, Adam and Eve would come searching for it. Once again.
Dushyant, that's probably why you haven't.
Yes, Anil, that's a possibility.
Watch out for the sequel, folks..
