To all brinjal lovers...

Its been quite sometime since i came up with something in this space. I have been occupied every minute at college. Nothing much to boast about. Just getting to the conclusion that CPC eggzams suck!!! I have been having exams 4 days a week :( .So not much time to do what I am best at. Me and a pal are planning from now itself to torture our juniors with same pretext. We are going to keep 3 papers for them on sunday!!! He he... Anyways i finally managed some time to post something.
This post is basically a thought that struck me a few days back. I wasn't sitting under a tree by any chance and nothing like an apple fell on my head. :P It's just heights of being arbit. I need to know a solution to it.
What is the relationship between love and brinjal?? People who watch lots of tamil movies will know what i am talking about. Fathers frequently keep saying: " kadhalum illa oru kathirikkayum illa". So lets analyse this.
Why should such a comparison take place first of all?? How can someone refer to it without it having any significance at all?
People keep telling me that love is an emotion and you'll know about it only when u experience it and other irrelevant nonsense. As far as i am concerned, its high level timepass to fall in love, waste of time and resources. Even if i assume that its an emotion for the time being, now why should it be compared to a mere vegetable? That itself shows how jobless the guy who coined such a line must have been. A bigger timepass than me. Probably he must have loved someone.. He He.. There are so many emotions that human beings possess. Of all of them, why love? why should it to be compared with a vegetable?? and that too why brinjal??
May be because kathal and kathirikkai begin with the same syllable. But there are so many vegetables starting with "k", why brinjal alone.
Lets date back our analysis to a few centuries. Is it something like the first lovers both liked brinjal? As far as i have read, it was only an apple for adam and eve. Where did brinjal come all of a sudden? Or is it like, love is fully established between two people only if they like brinjal? Should ask a few of my committed friends. May be they can help me find a solution ;)
