Good Grief!

What follows is a chat with an acquaintance about a photo in my orkut album. The said acquaintance is one of those people whom one successfully avoided talking to several years pre-1998 until chat messengers came and changed everything. Now one's only hope against such adhesives is the "busy" status message. Even that doesn't deter the stickiest of them. To make matters worse, they always use sms lingo in chats, which is a big pet peeve of mine. Anyway, the picture is reproduced below. It's a very touristy pic taken last year. The smart-ass tag I put on the picture was "With Emma in front of George's house".
