Is there some deep philosophical meaning to this, or well, is it just a mosquito. Great picture though. It looks like a futuristic spaceship. Is that what you wanted it to look like?
Okay, that would mean? Is there a Freudian meaning behind this?! :D
Mosquito reminds me of this 90's Hindi flick (I don't recall the name of) which featured Nana Patekar had him mouthing this line, "Ek Machar aadmi ko...", with alarming regularity. I suppose it was one of those questioning manhood, playing to the gallery type part humour, part insult thingie! :)
I was told once by one of our Mosquito repellant manufacturing clients that mosquitoes bite only certain people, and we concluded that they perhaps find it easier to spot fair skinned people. We then tried to do a co-realtion between fairness cream users and chronic sufferrers from mosquito bites. The results were inconclusive!
;) No Freudian meaning involved here as far as I can tell, though I did have a serious Id-issue with mosquitos when I
was young. I have a comment on an earlier post on this
crush of mine.
:) Ha, ha -- leave it to marketing folks to see potent commercial opportunities in the culinary habits of mosquitos and the conjecture that mosquitos could also share the Indian bias for the fair skinned is very funny. Is it just me or is there a confusion between correlation and causation here. I imagine the question really is whether fairness cream has substances that repel or attract mosquitos, not whether fairness cream users attract mosquitos - no?
