Gud-gaon?

July 15th, 2006 | Category: Rants

Gurgaon is a gud-gaon but a bad-city. I agree it has plenty of skyscrappers, bpo’s, malls, pubs, etc. But being the “millenium city”, it provides public transport options of the last millenium probably. It’s hopeless!

I feel stranded without a driving license!

    Errr…. I assume you are unaware of the local slang meaning of the word “Gud” in Hindi.
    e.g: “Woh poora Gud Lagtaa hai”

    Apoorva:

    B:
    well, thats not just a GG downside, i’ve been to B’lore and its just as shitty… Cal has public transport, but its better left unmentioned…

    mumbai has good transport, but as recent events indicate, would u LIKE to be in it ??

    oh my kingdom for a quiet leafy EMPTY bicycle path!

    i think Gud (the one Apoorva is referring to) is more of a Bombay slang… I was surprised at the Delhi slang i learnt in Boulder CO, Thulla = cop, khuley paise = change… etc etc…

    FYI - gud = gay

    You are so right. Everything is GUD. but no tranport. I get struck once I land up here. I miss Delhis Auto rickshaw, however bad still…
