Triond Speak

A satire On Triondisms.

Within a short duration of less than two months flat I’ve begun to pick up some Triondisms which I intend to use for this article, without malice, but spiced with satire and humor.

Typical Triond Titles:

Let me start with some of the typical Triond styled titles that are fairly common — Ten Ways To Brush Your Teeth, Five Unsafe Acts On The Bed, Three Don’ts and Ten Do’s To Avoid Teen Pregnancies, 100-Ways Not To Do It, 13-Dangerous Websites For Mosquitoes, Six Comfort Zones For Web Spiders, Twelve Ways To Say No When You Mean Yes, Three Cute Pinches When A Date Goes Sweet As Planned, Five Spot Kicks (Penalty) When A Date Turns Sour, Dozen Ways To Hatch Eggs (Not Human, Avian), Seven Ways To Flirt Off Triond etc. The list is endless. Same type of titles, whatever the subject, tends to turn stale when repeated and stereotyped.

Typical Triond Female Descriptions:

“I am from Connecticut, I connect with all who love writing. I am a young Mom of Sweet Sixty, going to be a Sexy Seventy. Mother of two grown-up kids, one 45, another 39. Also a Grand Mom to three teenaged babies.”

My Passion:

“If anything turns me on, it is my husband whom I met, while sailing in Bermuda, and who married me in 48-hours flat. However, now at 69, writing is my passion.”

My Favourite Pastime:

“My undying love for all types of Bananas — Green, Yellow, and even Red, the Kerala variety.”

I Love To:

“Just be loved like when I was a Sweet Sixteen ..”

Triond Man Mannerisms:

This brings me to the vital question, why don’t Triond men proclaim they are a Single Dad of 4 sons, or that they are getting on to be Great Grand Dads. This missing link reveals a lot about the masculine tendency to keep themselves “open” for gallivanting should the occasion arise. Pen names are OK but Triond Males with female pen names stand out like telltales akin to cross-dressing, merely for the sake of “Miss Adventures”. The true blue Triond male comes through with their saucy names and a numeral stuck like a bead pierced on their *.

Triond Messages :

Triond messages are so clear that I can “see the eyeballs of Sophia Loren”, as Peter Sellers saw them while singing “Goodness Gracious, my heart goes woompoody-woompoody woom-poom-poom!” The comments save a few are so obviously obvious that it can’t be anything but born again Dummies. And they keep coming in regular duos and trios with regular regularity — a series of known appendages.

Conclusion:

All said and done, I like to lose myself in this Triond World of writers, poets, Single Moms, Double Dads, Friends, Peers, Teenagers, Seniors and Juniors. It is a realtime Virtual World where Life and Death, War and Peace, Love and Hate all are reflected clearly. It is a living replica of Life itself — a Global picture of One World of writers and poets wielding pens, giving in to their passion for Creative Writing. Thanks to Triond, I could be with a World Community of assorted Creative Personalities. Being in Triond is definitely no tags-to-riches story, but it definitely is an enriching experience.
