'About Me'

I've been on orkut for more than 3 years now, and was going through the 'about mes' i've written over the period. It sure says a lot about a guy, the 'about me', and this is applicable to my case just as well. I don't have or remember what i wrote there when i joined the site, and have documented it only since the beginning of 2007.
The very first of them is this mess, and i don't remember or fancy why i wrote this -
"hell i'm sarthak! but dat's quite obvious (the title says it yaar!), (n pleez, 'i, black' doesn't make me a 'kalmunha'!!) 
so i guess i need to put in some effort here n fill dis up! but frankly i've not a slight clue so as 2 wat 2 write down here. i mean, wat d hell m i suposd to say, wat do i think of myself (thinkin s such a wastage of tym, u c), or wat i want u 2 think of me, or wat others think of me (hell, hw m i supposed 2 no dat!!!), or wat i think others think of me, or wat others make me blv dey think of me, n blah blah... (nw hu says i'm bad at p&c!)
so, does dis translate into dat i have nothin 2 tell u about me? (or worse, dat i don't even no 'about me'!!!)
err....no!!!! 
but, i guess u'll have to ask somethin specific 2 get d answer 2 it, as many ppl tend 2 fill dis column with all sort if shit dey can think of, n i definitely don't wanna do dat! (mmm, am i jus doin dat!!! wtf!)
so, d bottom line is, ask me wat u wanna no, n i'll definitely tell u 
n if u think i'm not worth it, 'den y d hell r u visitin dis page, u asshole? Go, get a lyf first!' ."

Next came this -
"your profile is not supposed to be obnoxious, is it so?
and it struck my mind that this 'about me' column shouldn't be starting with a question too!
and that you are supposed to write about your checkered life (hmm... it isn't simple, but not complex either),
but frankly speaking, there are many things i would not like to share, as there are many more which you (yes, you!) would not like to know either, and i am at total loss so as to whimsically get or figure out what i should say, or rather omit! yes, that's the word i was looking for, and now i can safely hide behind it! (do i find myself shouting 'eureka!')
no one gives a damn... do you?
i could move the world, but was unable to find a fulcrum,
the fulcrum could only be seen when the lever was in another hand,
all this time, i found out, there was another one right at my back!
i thought, 'how could you be so careless?'
in the meantime, the world was moved by someone else, and yes, he wasn't using the lever!
this was the time, when i realized that the other hand was mine!!
'The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it.',George Bernard Shaw.
i buy this philosophy,
and i guess this should be sufficient. (though all this was certainly not succinct!)"
[only one word, 'ego']
Then- 
"a stubborn idiot"
Followed by-
"a typo in this humongous God-algo {:)]"
[a typo would render the algo dysfunctional!]
And this process continues to this date, as you might expect it to. I kinda try to be satirical and metaphoric, sometimes to succeed, and most of the time end up conveying something even more brilliant than what i intended at the first place!
The following song by LP may most aptly conclude this post, and the year as well!
