Gloom's Taxonomy

 This is a competitor to the much better-known Bloom's Taxonomy prevalent in education that classifies learning outcomes/objectives by looking at whether the course delivers only an understanding of ideas or if it goes further into making the student apply, or think creatively. 

This one, tries making you gloomy in different ways.

Level1 : A cloudy sky makes you a bit gloomy

Level 2: Cold, grey or dark sky. Makes you depressed

Level 3: No one is talking to you, they are busy on their gadgets. 

Level 4: You have been let down by your most trusted friend. You are Gloom defined!

Level 5: You saw a Karan Johar film with songs sung by Yo yo Honey Singh.. all of them remixes.. you are inconsolable

Great Inventions

These are on my list of my ten great inventions-

1. Chair-improved our lives and elevated us from the floor.
2. Spoon-gave us ways of using jars and stirring things up.
3. Radio-everything else pales before this. An infinite source of information, entertainment and joy. Accessible to the common man. Even Modi uses this to connect with people.
4. Pen and paper- how else would we have distinguished ourselves from animals? Books are an endless source of joy.
5. Aspirin- it cures something (headache) with certainty-with most other medicines, you are not really sure.
6. Homeopathy- again, accssible medicine, and despite what experts tell you, easy to learn and administer yourself. Cures at least a few known uncomfortable conditions.
7. Sarcasm- without it, life would be dry and humourless. By using this, we also make friends-and lose some. Keeps the wheel of life on an even keel.
8. Marriage-after laughter, this gets my vote as the next best thing. The twain cannot meet, usually, unfortunately. 
9. Blogging- you are already being subjected to this, so I shall not speak further on the subject-until my next.
10. Communism- a better fantasy is yet to be invented. 

 Some day, I will also list out the worst inventions.
